    Frightening: New website exposes where Prop. 8 donors live!

    This is very scary .... from a UK Telegraph blogger:

    Valleywag is reporting today on a new Google Maps mashup, eightmaps.com, which gives the name and profession of every Proposition 8 donor. It also lists how much they donated and shows where they live.

    The site's strapline is distinctly creepy:

    "Proposition 8 changed the California state constitution to prohibit same-sex marriage. These are the people who donated in order to pass it."
    In other words, for everyone who is angry that some people don't want homosexual marriage - this website shows them where to direct their attacks. Literally. Frightening.

    update: on a perhaps related note, the HBO show "Big Love" aired parts of the temple rites of the Mormon church during their latest episode. Why should we care? Reader James:
    "Because to Mormons this is akin to the desecration of the blessed sacrament [to Catholics]. Needless to say, it has caused outrage in the Mormon community ... some theorize that this was done in revenge for the Mormon Church's campaigning for Prop. 8."
    Of course, this is not strictly-speaking akin to desecration of the Eucharist, but we still ought to show solidarity with Mormons for the persecution they are receiving because of their Prop. 8 support. This is an issue of justice.
