Alan-

First, knock 'em dead on your trip!

Second, forget the moral issue of Prop. 8 down here, legally it would amend the state constitution, which can only be done by the state legislature.

Third, the first amendment says the government will not establish a religion - gay marriage is a religious issue, therefore, it is protected by the first amendment. If you want a non-secular style of government, look to the hated middle-east to see what religious run governments can do for you. I hear that there are no homosexuals in Iran

Be sure to post pics from your trip, or else, I think...
