The California vote on Proposition 8, the "marriage amendment," is far more than a question of equity for gay and lesbian partners. It is about pushing an agenda on the people of a state (and a nation) whether they agree with it or not.

Look at what happened in Massachusetts. What same sex marriage has done in Massachusetts is far worse than what people realize.

According to Massachusetts' resident Brian Camenker, the intense pro-homosexual indoctrination in public schools across Massachusetts began soon after the November 2003 court decision ruling that it was unconstitutional not to allow same-sex “marriage.”

Camenker reports that in early December 2003 at his children's high school there was a school-wide assembly to celebrate same-sex marriage. It featured speakers, including teachers at the school who announced that they would be "marrying" their same-sex partners and starting families either through adoption or artificial insemination. Literature on same-sex marriage, telling how it is now a normal part of society, was handed out to the students.

Soon after, the gay and lesbian agenda was brought into the middle schools. In September, 2004, an 8th-grade teacher in Brookline, Massachusetts, told National Public Radio that the marriage ruling had opened up the floodgates for teaching homosexuality. By the following year it was in elementary school curricula, reports Camenker. Kindergartners were given picture books telling them that same-sex couples are just another kind of family, like their own parents. In 2005, when David Parker of Lexington, Massachusetts, a parent of a kindergartner, strongly insisted on being notified when teachers were discussing homosexuality or transgenderism with his son, the school had him arrested and put in jail overnight.

Second graders at the same school were read a book, “King and King,” about two men who marry each other, with a picture of them kissing. When parents Rob and Robin Wirthlin complained, they were told that the school did not have to notify them or allow them to have their child opt-out.

In 2006 the Parkers and Wirthlins filed a lawsuit to force the schools to notify parents and allow them to opt-out their children when homosexual subjects were taught. The case was dismissed when federal judges ruled that because same-sex marriage is legal in Massachusetts, the school  had a duty to normalize homosexual relationships to children, and that schools have no obligation to notify parents or let them opt-out their children.

In 2006, in another elementary school, the parents of a third-grader took their child out of school because a man undergoing a sex-change operation and cross-dressing was being brought into class to teach the children that there are now “different kinds of families.”  School officials told the mother that her complaints to the principal were considered "inappropriate behavior."

The 2003 ruling on same-sex marriages also has affected health, business, law, and the media, Camenker notes, in detail. In fact, it seems that all aspects of public life have been affected.

One of Marx's basic ten planks was free education for all children in public schools. Marx knew that the best way to change society is in the school room. Within a generation a society can be turned upside down by teaching children whatever ideological doctrine, good or bad, that government puts forward. This is happening in Massachusetts' schools.

Californians could look forward to a similar onslaught on public education and other public services as gays and lesbians push forward their agenda in that state. The agenda is more than about acceptance of a liefstyle. It is about conversion as well.

I disagree I've been keeping up with JBS for a while now, I greatly respect the society and it is because of this that I have to voice my opinion here. Understand, I'm not trying to start a fight or spread any agenda but I also fail to see how gay people have an agenda to spread by wanting to enjoy the same freedoms as the rest of us. Gay American's are American's before they're gay and as such I feel they deserve the right to pursue happiness, even if I personally don't agree with their definition of happiness. I agree that things weren't handled well at all in Mass. There's no excuse for glamorizing homosexuality any more than glamorizing sex to children is okay. That said, this is an education issue which has little to do with the individual rights of gay and lesbian Americans. Prop. 8, in itself, had nothing to do with schools and I firmly believe you guys are smart enough to realize this. I'm obviously not going to change your opinion in one singular comment but banning gay rights is banning American rights and I think it further promotes a "more government" approach to things. In California (I know because I'm a resident) parents are legally allowed to opt their children out of any education they feel is inappropriate so if the schools show the responsibility of telling the parents what they're teaching then any parent who doesn't feel equality is appropriate has the legal right to keep their child from learning it. Have homosexuals become the new black people and prop 8 the new Jim Crowe? Yes, just because there is no specific race of homosexuals doesn't validate making them second class citizens by denying them the right to marry who they love, regardless of whether or not we agree with it or would same sex marry, ourselves. For an organization that promotes freedom it sure seems fishy to me that it would only apply to heterosexuals. No matter what you can say to justify your support of prop 8 it still promotes more government, less freedom and a step in the wrong direction if freedom is truly what we're after.

gag me This amounts to thought control folks people need to open their eyes and get this garbage off the law books. Next thing you know they will force lie detector tests on people to check what they think and make it binding in a court of law to have you jailed for thinking the wrong thoughts.
