Just keep doing these irritating but tiny protests and Joe and Mary Sixpack are going to drop their support for Gay marriage like a hot beer on the 4th of July.

I don't think Joe and Mary Sixpack are our target audience.

I agree with that, mostly because we can't or haven't defined who our target audience might be. It's sure not our Congressional representative or Senator. Those are the people we should be talking to, not Joe and Mary. We're only upsetting them with this silliness.

People aren't thinking when they put these silly little protests together and it appears to what tiny slice of the general population we do reach that we're protesting for the sake of same. Wise up folks and get off your asses and go meet with your Congresswo/man and Senator. They're home for the holidays so it's a great time to do so instead of planning fragmented protests that will come to naught.

I agree that the best people to target are our lawmakers, writing letters and meeting with them in person shows real dedication.

I would be a lot more receptive to comments that weren't posted as anonymous.
