CALIFORNIA, June 17, 2008 – Hundreds of marriages of same sex couples took place yesterday as the state of California officially ended discrimination based on gender. This Saturday, June 21st, more civil ceremonies will be conducted all day long in West Hollywood Park from 8 AM to 8 PM. While people are celebrating now there is concern about an anti-gay proposition on the ballot this November. A coalition of homophobic fundamentalist groups claim they have enough signatures for a measure that would amend the state constitution to ban same sex marriage. But for now wedding bells continue to ring throughout the state.
