Allen, whose photo is featured below, sent me a link to his blog Random Fragments, and I wanted to share some of what he wrote regarding Prop 102:

"The bottom line…same-sex couples will exist in the world and will raise families just like "traditional" couples do. We can either embrace them with love and equality and share in the joy of their families or we can shun them out of fear and ignorance. We can grant them equal treatment to encourage a stable family situation or place a stumbling block to their ability to live the American dream of liberty and justice for ALL. Let’s focus on initiatives that truly strengthen families of every kind instead of dividing people into unnecessary subclasses."
