IF these folks have any pride in their dirty work to prevent gay marriage, why then, they should have no objection to their names being public information.
How cowardly of them to try to hide behind a non-profit and at the same time thusly damage the good works of all non-profits by bringing ill-repute, a bad name and a cloud of suspicion over non-profits in general.

Well, it goes to show you how some people will go to any lengths to enforce their agenda including lying and cheating. And I suppose they have the added priviledge of calling themselves “Christians”. In the first place, when it comes to human rights, dignity and the pursuit of happiness for each and every individual in a democratic nation, this issue should not be going to a public vote in the first place. There is way too much religious involvement in American politics, and everyone knows how much hatred and pain religious leaders have caused with their self righteousness and their evil ways of indoctrinating the masses.

How is it even possible that in the USA peoples civil rights keep getting put to a vote?! It makes me so angry and it makes no sense! Where would the USA be if this went on back in the civil rights era for black people? It never would have been tolerated! No offense to anyone but I thank God I live in a country where gays have the same rights an anyone else. Gay people in the USA need to start playing hard ball

I believe that the Florida4Marriage freaks are totally out to destroy our state and making people donate money to a non profit group so they won’t have their names printed is dumb. If you support the marriage of one man & one woman, then declare yourself for that right. Don’t go and hide under your churches roof. If you want to pass anything, you should stand behind your rights. I’m voting no on Amendment 2 in Florida, and my name is Chim Johnson.

I live in Florida and I am equally concerned that the signatures needed for the amendment to be placed on the ballot were not legally obtained. We know from previous reports in the U.S. that religious groups have been involved with less than legal or ethical methods for gathering signatures. How about that for an amendment? All signatures have to be investigated and responded to before it can be placed on a ballot? That would help both sides stay ethical eh?

I also donated to No on 2 a group fighting to keep a gay marrige ban out of the Florida state constitution.
I consider it vital to keep these types of amendments out of all the state constitutions facitg ballot votes NOv 4. I can perosnally sujpport only 2 figths,
so I chose No on Prop 8 and No on 2. Sincee California and Florida are very large major politically influential and very populous states on opposite coasts.
Much more than either small Connecticut or large Arizona to a be major loss for gay marriage if either one is lost in these 2 close to call and enormously important ballot box marriage equality fights.
