Prop 8

I received a call from a restricted number tonight, and normally that'd be my grandma calling me, but I had a feeling it wasn't. I picked up anyway and here's how it went:

Restricted: Do you know what Prop 8 is?

Me: No, I don't. (I vaguely remembered seeing a commericial about it.)

Restricted: Would you like to hear what it's about?

Me: Yea, sure, go ahead.

Restricted: Prop 8 is an amendment on California's constitution about traditional man-women marriages. If you vote yes, that means you are voting to keep traditional marriages. If you vote no, that means you support same-sex marriages. If you were to vote today, would you vote yes or no?

Me: I know what I'd vote for, can I ask how you would vote?

Restricted: I'd vote yes.

Me: I'd vote no. I support same sex marriages.

Restricted: Have you already made up your mind or are you still deciding?

Me: My decision's final. I believe that gay marriages should be legal.

Restricted: O....K........

Me: Have a nice day.

Restricted: *click*

That was for you, Jim.
