Stopping The Hate TV's Video Coverage
Of Prop 8 Rally In Bloomington Indiana
May 27, 2009
Stopping The Hate TV's Meghan Chavalier (Founder
Of StoppingTheHate.Com) and Co-Host Vicci Laine attended the
Prop 8 Rally in Bloomington, Indiana May 26, 2009.
Although there was a small group of people
who attended the rally it was an uplifting group of people
from the LGBT Community as well as many from the heterosexual
community who came out to support gay marriage after the disappointing
verdict handed down by the California Supreme Court on Proposition
8.
The rally was sponsored by Marriage Equality
In Indiana. The majority of passerbys were very supportive
of the protest, honking their horns and waving. There were
a few who drove by, yelled things and made obscene gestures,
but in the hours attended at the rally those numbers could
be counted on one hand.
It was a great day and the support for the
community, gay marriage and equal rights far outweighed the
anti-gay reactions.
