OP-ED: Gay couples should be allowed to marry

LA Youth
February 5, 2009
"In 2004, 62 percent of voters opposed gay marriage in California. In 2008, 52 percent were against it. Things are changing, and so am I. So as I sat in my room on Nov. 5, disappointed by the results, I thought, “How are we going to make progress? Where are we going if we continue to have prejudices?” Just like how I challenged my family’s beliefs, I hope people keep challenging Proposition 8. I look forward to waking up soon to a radio announcement that same-sex couples can get married in California." [Link]
