A federal judge in Sacramento ruled Thursday that Proposition 8 supporters ProtectMarriage.com and the National Organization for Marriage are not entitled to block their campaign finance records from the public.

The two groups, who the Associated Press reports raised the majority of the $43.3 million spent to back the anti-same-sex marriage bill, alleged that their donors had been subjected to boycotts, hate mail, and threats after their identities were listed on the Secretary of State's website, which is standard practice with campaign finance reports.

Well investigate the threats. If appropriate prosecute.

Boycotts and hate mail. These folks need to pull up their big kid pants and justbdeal with it.

A lot of times these people don't even know that they're promoting ignorance. After being surrounded by church people all my life, I've learned not everyone hates people of the LGBT community, but they are completely ignorant about it (which in the end ends up harming our cause).

As for the people who do practice hate... Ugh, I would agree with your statement on those people.
