With so many people and celebrities speaking out about the unfortunate results of the discriminatory Proposition 8, California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is taking this time to speak out as well.
On Sunday, the Governator expressed hope that the California Supreme Court would overturn Prop H8te and allow gay marriages again.
Schwarzenegger said in an interview yesterday on CNN, “It’s unfortunate, obviously, but it’s not the end. I think that we will again maybe undo that, if the court is willing to do that, and then move forward from there and again lead in that area.”
Looks like Arnold has slowly changed his opinion on gay marriage, as in past statements he stated that he believed the stupid idea that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. But, he had added that such important issues should be determined by the voters or the courts.
The governor has now publicly opposed Prop H8te and says to the backers of gay marriage, “I learned that you should never ever give up. . . . They should never give up. They should be on it and on it until they get it done.”
And yet we’re back to the old way of thinking. Back when if you recall, it was illegal for blacks and whites to marry.
Times change, but how long will it take for peoples’ views on equal rights for all to change?????
