Favorite Rally Chants?

So many creative chants have come about due to the prop 8 revolution. Queers have taken back the streets and we are demanding equal rights.

Here are some of my favorite slogans:

"Gay families under attack, what do we do, we fight back!"

"Gay, Straight, Black, White, marriage is a civil right!"

"What do we want? Marriage Equality! When do we want it? NOW!"

"Hey hey ho ho homophobia's got to go..."

"Out of the bars and into the streets"

"Tax the Mormon Church!"

What are your favorite slogans, or did your rally locale have something unique?
