I am voting YES on Proposition 102

I spent a few hours the last two days hanging door flyers for this proposition. I have family and friends in California knocking on doors and standing on street corners with 40 - 50 others getting yelled and cursed at and had thing thrown at them for holding up signs for their Prop 8. Yet others - strangers have stopped, parked their cars and joined them!

Recently I had an email containing a graphic manipulation of Samual the Lamanite on the wall having arrows shot at him -- but instead he was holding a Yes of Prop 8 sign -- doesn't it feel that way? What has happened to our country? I think the sadest part are members of my own faith picketing Church headquarters against the stand we as a faith are taking to preserve marriage between a man and a woman. It it suprizing how well Satan spreads his deception. I proudly stand for what I know to be morally correct and fundamentally crucial to the future of our country and our freedom and especially our families. I will vote YES on Prop 102 and I encourage you to do the same.

I have seen some pretty disturbing posts on other blogs about some of the opposition here to 102 and in CA.

I really hope this passes.... if not I think I am going back to school to get my degree.... and get my teaching certificate.

Good post Sarah. I agree with you, especially after I read up on these propositions and the impact they would have on our schools and churches.

Haleigh is looking quite grown up. She looked beautiful in her Halloween costume.

I appreciate your passion on this issue, Sarah. You have been so supportive for both CA and AZ. Yesterday I too was a bit depressed by those who are members of the church who are opposing this important proposition. You really start to feel the division that will come in the last days. I will be glad when this ends (if it ever does).

Is 102 the version in AZ? I have heard horror stories about members being horribly harrassed as they tried to attend the temple. So sad. Good for you for taking a stand!
