Fox News View Of The World

More on Prop 8

I just posted yesterday on the Proposition 8 issue going on in California - and it looks like all those folks who sniped at the gay marriages out in California now don't wish to be known by their deeds. Seems sort of like they want to be able to hide in the bushes and snipe at the homosexuals without proper credit being given for their prejudices. Might it be affecting their businesses? Poor hypocrites.

From the NY Times...

In many ways it is a typical map, showing states, highways, cities and streets.

Arrows on an online map point to the addresses of Proposition 8 supporters in the San Francisco area and across the country.

But also dotting the online display are thousands of red arrows, marking spots from Bryn Mawr, Pa., to Jamacha, Calif., identifying the addresses of donors who supported Proposition 8, which outlawed same-sex marriage in California.

It is exactly those arrows that concern supporters of the measure, who say they have been regularly harassed since the election — with threatening e-mail messages and sometimes boycotts of their businesses.

You may need to click on the map to view it larger to read all of the names.
