On June 16, 2007, they became the first and only gay couple to wed in Los Angeles County.

And the radical religious right, including but not limited to the Mormon, Catholic and Baptist churches, has just thrown us under the bus!
The people who voted "Yes" on Proposition 8 are to Christianity what paint-by-numbers is to art.
