Attention Angelenos

Filed under: Gay Gay Gay

One of the co-owners of El Coyote restaurant, Marjorie Christoffersen, a Mormon, contributed to the YES on Prop 8 campaign.

We support her right to donate to whatever cause she wants, just like we support the boycott in effect against the restaurant!

Boycott El Coyote!

    Is it just me or is this website sort of turning into a lefty drudge report? Perez, I'm bored by your political yearnings. Stick to the good ole gossip I first came here for.



  2. 102

    Re: njpaul0129 – did you just say damn???



  3. 103

    Perez you are starting to look PATHETIC…………………maybe you and your cronies can afford therapy since you're boycotting El Coyote!!!



  4. 104

    Thanks Perez, you douche. Never would have known about this, but now that I do, I am going to make a concerted effort to frequent El Coyote. I will tell all my Yes on Prop 8 friends to do the same. Never went there before, even though I live around the corner. They can now consider me a regular!!! EAT AT EL COYOTE EVERYONE!!!!!!!



  5. 105

    Re: My.Heart.Is.In.Iraq. – Oh holy crap … no … noooo! PLEASE don't let "The Gay Community" be diminished in your opinion! Lolz. Like anyone gay person alive gives a fuck what you think. And I've already told you why we don't want to all move to your home state *laughs* So stop advertising it. What are you, on the board of tourism or something?



  6. 106

    EAT AT EL COYOTE EVERYONE!!!!!!!!! Perez, you are a little BITCH!!!!



  7. 107

    PEREZ - YOU ARE SUCH A HYPOCRITE!

    YOU SAY YOU SUPPORT A PERSON'S OWN OPINION, YET YOU WANT OTHERS TO BOYCOTT THEIR RESTAURANT JUST FOR THEIR OPINION?

    WTF???



  8. 108

    earth to haters: THIS SITE HAS ALWAYS BEEN GAY GAY GAY! sorry you have no gaydar. I'm glad Perez is outting these H8ful assholes. I'm boycotting asshole establishments like black people did with the buses. That's a RIGHT, not that you'd know anything about it.



  9. 109

    Re: Pogue Mahone – You've had the honey … you shit in it, remember? And how many times do we have to say it - we don't want "better" we want "same." If the money you get from me buying a plate of fajitas is going to support ballot initiatives that rob me of my rights, then hellz to the yeah I'm not giving you any more of my money.

    You seem almost rational (a rarity around here.) How can this idea not make sense to you?



  10. 110

    funny how it's alright to hate and boycott someone cause of their views and because they're a mormon,
    but if i said told people to boycott a place cause it's ran by gay people, it'd be "wrong".

    wtf?

    what's all this unfair hate about?

    mormon's aren't bad people.

    you're a bad person for spreading this type of hate.



  11. 111

    god hates fags and ted danson is black.



  12. 112


  13. 113

    We might as well call you Perez Hitler! If one is to value another's opinion, how can you penalize another person for having one- just because they don't agree with you? You obviously don't believe in freedom of speech!



  14. 114

    Let me get this straight, Perez.

    Freedom of speech and freedom to vote the way you want only apply if a person votes along your guidelines?

    You make the Religious Right look like a party.
    Mark my words, the far Left is going to start to boycott, penalize and sensor Americans more than the Right ever did!



  15. 115

    OK Perez….how about we boycott your advertisers until you stop the 24/7/365 Prop 8 stuff?!?!?



  16. 116

    BOYCOTT ECKO, MIDORI, and HILLARY DUFF MUSIC. All are advertisers on this hateful website. Let's show Perez what it's like to be on the receiving end of a boycott!!!!

  17. PFazz says – reply to this


    117

    Perez,

    You are digging your own grave and you too shall become a star in VH1's Remember 2008.

    What happened to being a fair individual? You are targeting people for their freedom of choice.

    I am going to write to this woman and tell her to sue your ass!

    but NOT for the gays!!!! How IRONIC!!!!!



  19. 119

    Re: JanetDammit – What I mean is violence doesn't solve anything and being nice can go a long way. If you have a civilized and respectful dialogue it is more effective than brash, harsh measures, and that those who promote violence or anarchy are stooping to the same low level as those whom they have issues with, and that in doing that they are no "better"(better not as in equal or not, but rather better as in the type of civilized and reasonable person they are) than they are; it makes them just as bad.People will be more likely to respect people and their causes and respond more positively to them, if you approach them in a less hostile, threatening manner, that's all. :)



  20. 120

    EVERYONE…Call any Virgin Megastore, any store that sells Ecko Clothing, and the Midori regional rep (all found online) and inform them that their products are being boycotted due to Perez Hilton's hatred towards any group he does not identify with. I just decided I am going to devote one hour a day for the next month reminding all of Perez Hilton's advertisers why I am not buying their products. If enough people do this, perhaps this jerk off will get the message…Let's put Perez out of business…



  21. 121

    Mmmmmmm! I love that place! I think I am gonna go there tonight and get some bomb ass fajitas and one of their cheap but tasty margaritas! At least it'll be nice quite dining!

    No on 8 but the coyote is too great!



  22. 122

    if anyone has any question about whether america's ready for gay marriage, the comments on perez would quickly convince them otherwise. don't you get it? a lot (the majority of voters in cali for instance) are opposed to recognition of same sex marriage. maybe it's time to change our focus on educating the people that so clearly hate us.



  23. 123

    Uhh, Marjorie Christoffersen is not one of the co-owners of El Coyote. She works there and is the daughter of one of the owners.



  24. 124

    Re: calmb123 – i'll boycott fat ass / nice ass…….but sorry…..christmas is around the corner and mamajud loves her some perpetual kid and shanalogic!!!



  25. 125

    Lets support El Coyote!!!! I'm dining there tonight!



  26. 126

    While you are dining at El Coyote, tell the bartender and manager that Midori is advertising on a website that has called for a boycott on their restaurant…they might be compelled to take it off their shelves and call their Midori rep…doesn't seem like much, but these things have a snowball affect…if anything, Perez's little stunt is going to drive a ton of business to El Coyote…and cost him his advertisers…I LOVE IT!!!!!



  27. 127

    Re: Pogue Mahone – Ok. I take back what I said about you being rational. WHERE is the violence or anarchy in a boycott? Where? Are those crickets? Yeah. Because there's no violence here.

    And if you think violence doesn't solve anything compared to a nice lil fireside chat, I would like to remind you of the L.A. riots of '92.

    We've had our jobs legislated away, been barred from even basic human dignities that hetero couples enjoy and been repeatedly buried when "asking nicely." It's high time that every person stood up well beyond a simple boycott and let it be known that our rights as US citizens are not a matter of public opinion.



  28. 128

    Wow, I am absolutely appalled at your idea of a boycott. Is it not our right as Americans to vote how we want? Would you want to live in a place where there was only one opinion on everything? And didn't someone famous once say something like "though I think your opinion is wrong, I will defend to the death your right to have it"?

    It's one thing for the Civil Rights Movement of the 60s to boycott buses, but it's a completely different thing to boycott somebody's business just because they voted differently than you.

    Shame on you.

    If the "Mormons are responsible" for this and we're going to boycott their restaurants, then why don't we just start forcing them to wear little yellow patches on their clothing so we can know who they are?



  29. 129

    Re: Stevie D. – Obviously a supporter of prop 8. You dumb fucking bitch get the fuck off this site written by a gay man. If you don't like the entry just scroll. This is damn important dumb fucking cunt.
    .
    As for you Perez, right on! keep on the good work and yes fucking boycott those who supported the bill. They fucking need to see some consequences in their hate actions.



  30. 130

    Re: JanetDammit – I meant the rioting when Prop8 was passed; that's the hostility I was referring to.Surely there are better ways to solve differences than violence and mayhem? This IS being rational and reasonable.



  31. 131

    I'm with you Perez. No dining at the El Coyote restaurant from now on. For me, it's not worth the 400 mile drive.



  32. 132

    Re: erhg74 – You sound real intelligent moron. There is a reason the homosexual population is fighting for respect…because too large a segment of that population sounds exactly like you…judgmental, bitchy, foul-mouthed, etc…etc…Prop 8 is the law my man…get used to it…HA HA HA HA HA HA!!! EAT AT EL COYOTE!!!!! YUMMM…..



  33. 133

    The rest of the world does NOT have to conform to the gay agenda!
    People have the absolute right NOT to "accept" anything they don't want to.
    Stop demanding acceptance! No one owes you anything..
    It's annoying at best and frankly, "hateful" at worst!



  34. 134

    Re: erhg74 – take a look at all the postings dude…the proportion of people commenting who think Perez is a douche bag is very high…and proportional to the number of Yes On 8 votes! That is why you lost….suck it up and go get a civil union…if you can find anyone who can actually stand your foul mouth and hateful attitude….EL COYOTE MUCHO BUENO!!!!!!!

    Re: calmb123 – I love it too! You are so smart! This is a fabulous idea. I am going to do the same. I am calling anyone that advertises on this site and telling them of all the H8te Perez is spreading. He is going to persecute people for their religious beliefs and that's not hate - puhleeze! Just in case people do not know you can go to the California Secretary of State's website and find out who donated money to Prop 8 whether in opposition or support. Perhaps people who voted Yes on Prop 8 may want to boycott any of the companies listed on that website. Also, you can find the same information on the LA Times website. People for religious freedom, for Prop 8, for morals, decency and values, please make sure to call and email any and all of Perez's advertisers and let them know of the hate he is spreading! You rock Calmb123!!!!!!!!!!! YES ON 8!!!



  36. 136

    Re: blblblb – I agree, and it's this exact aggressive "in-your-face!" attitude of the gay agenda that's turning so many people off, but then again, you just can't reason peaceably with any people that are so hostile,demanding,and that refuse to accept that not everyone agrees with them,and that aggression ,hostility,and pushiness is NOT the way to win support or sympathy!



  37. 137

    Re: Sgirl – Thanks for the support Sgirl. Perez is right, boycotting is a peaceful form of protest…which is why he shouldn't have a problem with as many people as possible boycotting his advertisers. It won't take too many calls or emails to the advertisers for them to put enough pressure on Perez to get him to stop his hateful spewing…either that, or he can go shopping for more advertisers…



  38. 138

    I think what people are failing to realize is, is that this is an issue that should of never been voted on in the first place. Prop 8 was a measure to create hate. It continues to teach people that gays are not equal.Also there is a seperation between church and state, so what happened to that?? marriage is an agreement over property and other such things…. and to say that gays will destroy the sanctity of marriage is one of the most foolish things I have heard. The people destroying it are those that are divorcing everyday night gays getting married. We live in a world where Britney can some how get married and 55 hours later have it annulled, but yet gays cant get married???? It boils down to this gays getting married doesnt effect you and if it does then there is something seriously wrong with you. The same love you have for your companion is the same love gays have fofr theirs. By denying gays the the right to marry is essential the same as when white and blacks were not allowed to marry, and the same when slaves were married but it was invalid and their vowels consisted of not, till death do us part but till death or distance do you part. their were laws on the books till 1967 saying blacks and whites couldnt marry and blacks and whites who wanted to marry back then were being denied the rights gays wants. This vote shouldnt of ben based on religion but the importance of the human heart.



  39. 139

    El Coyote should have been closed a long time ago. The only people that go there are the ones that want to say they ate where Sharon Tate had her last meal. The food there sucks and the place is way overhyped.



  40. 140

    Re: Pogue Mahone – Excellent points! And don't forget Green Peace. A group with a great original idea that has turned into hate-mongering and harrassment!



  41. 141

    oh SNAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the food there :(



  42. 142

    this is a hate site now. wow. just for this, i am so going to eat there. you are out of control, and its so so so sad. what if prop 8 had not passed? do you think people who voted yes would be acting like maniacs?? we are being persecuted for our beliefs now with threats to burn down churches. how is that not hate???

    PROP H*8TE RALLY - Taking it back to the start. Don't take away my human rights, especially my right to be treated equally. Make a sign. Be creative. It's fun as hell. Drive on by after work. H8TE is a bad thing. Change is now!

    No More Mr Nice Gay!

    The revolution has begun to retake our Constitutional EQUAL RIGHTS!

    Great to see all the BIGOTS and IDIOTS here making a GAY MAN even $$$richer$$$.

    Trust me, just like Proposition 8 will be overturned just like Prop22.

    And for all you hater, I say:
    America: love it or leave it!



  44. 144

    Re: hotboy87 – I find it ironic that gays continue to equate this cause with the civil rights movement in the 60's…the black voters in California overwhelmingly voted FOR Prop 8…and because so many black voters turned out to vote for Obama, their vote was probably what made Prop 8 successful…Is it really so bad having Civil Unions? Why would you want to be part of a religious ceremony invented by people who think homosexuality is wrong? Instead, you should lobby to see that Civil Union's will include all the rights afforded to married straight people. This really comes across as nothing more than a big fight over a name (marriage), so you can "stick it to the religious and straight people". Stop looking for a fight, try to respect the insitution of marriage as it was originally intended, and use Civil Union's as a vehicle to provide you with the same rights everyone else has…that is the winning solution for everyone, and if equal rights are truly what you are interested in, this is what you will do…



  45. 145

    I'm someone who eats often at el coyote and it even has gay nights,this restaurant will suffer greatly for this bigotry as it should, This bigoted cunt will wish she never gave to this homophobic prop. I hope she suffers greatly and it closes this restaurant down.



  46. 146

    Re: jdog – Marriage does not belong exclusively to the church anymore. It is a government institution that comes with certain rights that all Americans deserve. What is so hard to understand about that? Also, if Perez wants to boycot these haters, he has every right and he has every right to post it on his website. I would do the exact smae thing if I had the forum he does. he created it and he can use how ever he wants. If all you whiners don't like it, go to another gossip site. There are tons of them to choose from. Leave.



  47. 147

    uhmmm … this publicing of names etc on who donated stuff seems like a recipe for disaster and a tragedy waiting to happen.

    give it a few days and those list of names will be taken down for fear of people that donated getting hurt.

    like a hate crime ..only against people that donated to prop 8



  48. 148

    Re: rok_c_11 – This arguement so doesn;t hold water yet it is repreated like a broken record. Just because people voted on something, it does not make it right. Plenty of measures have been voted on in the past were blatantly wrong. By the way we shouldn't even be voting on peoples personal lives. It is insane. Wake up hater!



  49. 149

    Are you republican scum serious,you think gay people should spend money in establishments that supported a campaign that villified and demonized gay people at all costs just so gays wont be able to get married. If you think I will brainwash your kids or will ruin your marriage,I would assume you wouldnt want me in your restaurant.isnt that just basic human nature. No I think that some people believe that gays can be treated like shit and second class citizens,can be discriminated against,slammed and then come running to your restaurant to give you more money, you people are in trailer park denial. Screw all businesses that gave mone to prop h8te and if any cater to the gay community and their friends and families,they will not get our business,and I'm sure that will make them happy.



  50. 150

    Re: knowitall – You are a tool. If anything, business is increasing. Perez is offering a valuable advertising service…just because people visit his website from time to time does not mean that they are complicit with his hateful agenda. People will flock to EL COYOTE in droves just to support them.

    Re: djkatyk – Wow, a rational sane intelligent post. Thank you!

    152

    I love seeing the voice of HATE here?

    Why? Well because it reinforces the notion that most HATERS are IDIOTS.

    They don't understand Democracy. They think because "the majority voted for it" that that's the way it should be.

    The same arguments that the IDIOTS here on this blog write about how gays should "get over it", "majority rules" and the rest of the yamping, are the same arguments used when they tried to make it illegal for a black and gay to marry.

    The main reason gays are boycotting and marching is that something was taken away: equality. Judges this year said that Prop22 did not provide equal justice to gays/lesbians. They will say the same thing about Prop8 and all the haters will have nothing to cry about.

    Rights are not suppose to be put up for a vote otherwise we would have a MOB mentality, where hey a few years ago, we would have had laws saying Muslims should be kicked out of this country even if you are not a terrorist. Well if you think it can't happen, it will. Ask any Japanese who had their family in CAMPS here in CA.

    So all you IDIOTS who continue to tell Perez what he should or should not do:

    Please continue to come here, it will make Perez even $$$ richer $$$. Oh, and the advertisers will LOVE IT TOO!

    I could explain more about to the HATERS but they are such IDIOTS that it won't do any good. Besides most of them don't live in CA … they live in "flyover" states!

    WHY ARE THERE SO MANY HOMOPHOBES READING A GAY MAN'S WEBSITE?!?! FUCK OFF AND GO READ RUSHLIMBAUGH.COM!!

    AND FUCK THAT MORMON CUNT AND HER MEXI FOOD!! I'LL NEVER EAT THERE AGAIN, GO TO MARIX!!!!

    Re: calmb123 – What a sad little hater you and Sgirl are. Why are you on a gay mans website anyway. Shouldn't you guys be getting your hoods cleaned or throwing a jew in an oven or something?



  55. 155

    Calmb-you hateful redneck piece of shit. I-m someone who eats at el coyote ,it has a very gay clientel and staff ,it even has two nights dedidicated to gays only,the rest of the people that eat there are very liberal gay toleranat artsy kind of people,this bitch should have known better,she can donate to any homophobic mormon cult she wants to and she can deny civil rights to gay people,but that restaurant is not getting any of my money . Secondly you rightwing mormon,moronic trailerpark fascists you think perez is in charge of these lists.they are gaining in popularity in all gay groups ,hes just posting it here,and as a gay man its his right,you fcking hatemongerting piece of shit,I would also think that people who think of gay people as equals would not want to spend money in homophobic places.



  56. 156

    Re: FunMe – You really are confused aren't you? You act like a life long right was taken away. A couple liberal judges said it was okay for gays to marry, despite what the state constitution said. They were were wrong, and that is why Prop 8 won. You guys don't care about EQUAL RIGHTS…if you did, you would be working hand over fist to see that Civil Unions provide you with the same rights afforded straight married couples. No, you are just looking for a fight, wasting your time arguing and protesting over a WORD invented by bunch of religious straight people. Your real agenda is to do nothing more than piss off straight religious people. Give it up already. Stop focusing on the word "marriage" and start focusing on civil unions (something your beloved Obama is all for)…



  57. 157

    it is against her religious beliefs, so she can do whatever



  58. 158

    calmb-Lets be serious about the break down of the vote the roughly half of Calfiornia that voted NO to prop h8te Live basically up and down the coast and 30 miles inland,thats where you find the more white,the more affluent,the more educated and the bigger spenders who spend money in lots of businesses. The yes bigot votes came from rural poor white communites way inland and third world minority areas steeped in poverty. They are not stupid,they know who voted yes or no. You think virgin is going to ever be on the side of rightwing or minority bigots,you make me laugh, You think micro-soft,google,yahoo. hollywood, etc would support the rightwing hate side. You need a lesson in economics after a lesson in civil rights,and then get back to be you scumbag bigoted bubbah.



  59. 159

    Re: knowitall – Your language reveals much about you. Your lack of education is obvious and I suppose that as a result, life is hard for you. You clearly have a lot of built up anger and resentment. I have gay friends, and I support their RIGHT to be gay. I do not think that marriage is a right for everyone. For instance, in California two eight year olds can not get married. Not EVERYONE can get married. You think that just because people don't want gays to get married that they hate gays? How infantile and narrow minded of you. The problem is, because some angry gays make such a big stink over the word "marriage", instead of focusing on getting equal rights within a Civil Union, intelligent voters deduce that this is not really about equal rights, but about rejecting religion (marriage is a religious concept). Marriage between same sex partners will NEVER be recognized in every state in the country. Civil Unions actually has a chance…why not focus there? There is a reason why you guys aren't getting equal rights. You are focusing on the wrong thing. Smarten up folks…

    Re: mattc101 – You are the biggest hater on this site. You are so pissed off that you didn't get your way that you can't stand it. I love how you constantly accuse others of being haters when compared to anyone else on this site you are the biggest hater! Dude, calm down, you're gonna hurt yourself! Being such a hater can't be good for you! Stop hating on everyone and shut the hell up. Doesn't it bother you that you are such a hater? You should see someone for that. You have anger management issues dude. Now because I don't believe in gay marriage I am now a nazi or in the kkk? You are truly insane. I think you are a bit confused - oh yeah, we've already established that! HAHAHAHAHAH!! You need to lay of the astroglide! Peace!

    Re: knowitall – listen to liberal NPR…they just did a story on exit polling of black voters…black voters turned out in record numbers this election, and according to the poll, must voted FOR Prop 8. BTW, glad you're laughing. That's what I was doing when Prop 8 WON!!!! Guys like you really soil the reputation of gays…your representation does harm to the gay agenda. Stick to reading and lay off the keyboard…you sound like a jack ass.



  62. 162

    Can we stop comparing gay marriage to African American boycotts in the 60's…its not even in the same realm. Marriage is an institue created by God. God would vote yes on 8. End of story.

    Mario this is really getting old.. Believe it or not most of your readers are not gay and supported prop 8. Readers come to this site for it's uniqueness and it has been up until now.. Fine, you gay and are against 8 but my God get over it already. Listen to your readers for once whilst you still have some

    EAT at El Coyote!!! I just went for dinner. Not bad, good prices…Perez, do you know how many people who never heard of this joint are now looking it up so they can there for some grub? Just because you are gay doesn't mean most of your readers are. I come here because I like seeing pictures of celebreties being stupid. It is not because you are gay or because I want to learn about gay stuff. Your gay boycott crap actually turns me and most of your readers off. It makes us want to support the places you call for a boycott on, and also makes us want to writer letters to your advertisers who would be interested in learning about some of the hateful things you say and do…Anyone notice how much foul language comes from angry gay people on this website? And they wonder why America is having a hard time accepting them. Perhaps they should look at their own behavior and attitude before trying to judge others…

    Perez, do you in fact know or have proof that she donated money to yes on prop 8. do you have her returned check ?? I think the way you and many of your friend are going about protesting the decision made by many, only solidifies the feelings of those that voted in favor of prop 8. instead of outing people and trying to shame them into agreeing with you, why not try to educate and show them that you are educated, moral, loving people? the same rights that your community has fought so hard to get….to be open and free and not to have to hide …is the same thing you are trying to force on to others. at this point the way you and some in your community are handling this, is setting your cause back years…it is only proving what some think to be true. Prove them wrong. I am Mormon and everday someone finds this out i have to defend myself, and i will continue to do this everyday untill i dont have to anymore, but i would never out or turn my back on someone because they dont agree with me i would try to educate them. I dont hate gays, i dont have several children, i only have one husband and i dont dress like i live on a prarie. P.s Many others voted yes on Prop 8…..is it just easier to attack the mormons…..get your facts together and stop stomping your feet like a two year old. i will let you know how many protest the resturant, because i do know that it is frequented by the gay community…..so lets see how powerful you are?

    Somebody on another comment post suggested that all gays protest by simply taking a day off from their professions. I think that's a terrific idea! There are gays everywhere in the workforce and not just teaching gym classes or dressing hair. Straight people might better understand the impact that gays have in society by having to do without them for a day. While some people may LOVE that idea (especially the closeted homo haters on this site), I for one think society would definitely suffer if the gays weren't around…
    …of course, supermarket boxed hairdye would really notice an increase in sales, lol!

    i understand your sentiment and agree that prop 8 should not have been passed, but what about all those who work at el coyote that have nothing to do with it like servers and managers and hosts etc. etc….??? you are only causing more harm and putting MORE people out of work, something that you always comment on when more and more companies lay people off because of the economy. don't be a hypocrite perez.

    Re: repus – First, donations to political campaigns become amatter of public record. No canceled checks required in this day and age.

    Second, the 'kill them with kindness' routine works best in one-on-one interaction, and it does work. When the opressed group replies, and I believe that is what is playing out now in public demonstration, it's about accountable action not kind words.

    Third, do you have any idea how socially conservative America has reacted when American brand marketeers have sent targeted messages to gay and lesbians seeking their business? Conservative America darn near invented the letter writing / boycotting tactic of social activism. (see commercialcloset.org)

    Calmb you white trash repubican bigot. any angeleno that needs to look for el coyote doesnt live here or doesnt dine out,I suspect trailer trash renters like you fall into both categories. If you think el coyotes being located in one of the most liberal areas with the most liberal clinetel will benefit from the owner giving money to the most hateful bigoted bill in California history ,you are in denial. Secondly you would really hate me if you knew how wealthy my family is ,but thats not really important,but you brought up my economic status. Anyway the vote was almost half voted either way,thats not enough of a margin to put bigotry into our constitution,unless of course you want to tax gay people at a lower rate,that might be the solution until gay people get full civil rights. While you seem to be talking for straight people,most straight people I know including my huge family all find anyone who voted yes on h8te disgusting,and they are shocked.

    Re: greenleafbella
    I DO think the yes on 8 people would be acting like maniacs if the Prop had not passed…they were acting like maniacs before it was voted on by letting gay panic spread by their religious leaders affect how they spend their hard earned money…honestly, couldn't "christians" and "mormons" have donated to a worthy cause-one that actually helps people (or animals, or the planet, etc)?

    Re: rok_c_11 – gay marriage was around way before christianity…and anyway, seperation of church and state…ever heard of that? plus, not everyone believes in your imaginary friend in the sky or that disgusting book written YEARS after jesus died and edited 300 years after.

    snap out of it christian zombie. *throws water (no holy) on your face*



  82. 182

    It's funny how you claim Mormons are discriminators and yet you're discriminating like crazy against them. Don't hate on people for what they believe. And they're not the only ones that voted for this proposition - in fact they're a very small percentage. Quit hating on Mormons and stick to celebrity gossip. Everyone gets bored when you pretend to understand politics….



  83. 183

    Calmb-hateful inbred ,gay hater- Lets clear a few things up,I was glad tht the Cheneys.former republican mayor Dick Riordan ,our gov Arnold and most of the educated non evengelical white trash republicans all supported the gay side in this hateful prop h8te. Lets also clear things up this court wasn't a liberal court as liars on the republican side like you like to claim, In fact it was a conservative republcian dominated court.and 3 out of the 4 judges who voted to over-turn the last republican hate proposition 22 were conservative republcians. In fact the chief justice who wrote very elequently on why gays shouldnt be treated like second class citizens was considered a very conservative judge before he dared to not side with the party of rightwing Jesus freak fundamentalists and uneducated republican bigots. After this ruling the rightwing has kept distorting the truth and refering to the judges as liberal judges.well they are conservative judges who didnt agree with the republican hate agenda,own it,and stop lying. The same rightwing radicals have put parental notification for abortion on the ballot 3x and yet it always gets defeated,seems that they dont give up,do they. Fck off and die bigot.

    Rockin Pa - your stupid. How is it "illegal" to donate to a cause? Also separation of church and state. WTF? Are you saying anyone who has a religion has no right to work, so basically if that woman is a Mormon, she should not work anywhere because there should be separation between church and state? You really showed your idiot side!

    Idiots like you remind me why I hate some people!



  88. 188

    QUESTION! majority spoke and prop 8 passed… process that and move on. If your going to fight it and discriminate against all Yes on 8's than what is the point of democracy? Why ask an entire nation to vote if your just gonna bitch and fight against the ending result? Respect everyone's right to their own opinion. i'm just sayin'



  89. 189

    Re: knowitall – Hey knowitall. I was a little shocked that Prop 8 passed as well, given how liberal and gay friendly the state of California is. I thought for sure it would get shot down. But it didn't. Is that any reason for you to go on a rampage? You should have gotten married when you had the chance. Bet you're kicking yourself now huh? I suppose you think that cussing like a sailor and protesting in front of churches will change that fact? You are a bit on the slow side aren't you? BTW, good to hear your family has money. Clearly they are not sharing with you, or you'd be a happy person, not a bitter, angry, hateful, foul-mouthed malcontent. Out of curiosity, what is your opposition to having a Civil Union if it would include all the same rights as marriage in California? Let me guess…you could give a rats ass about having the same rights. You are bitter and are trying to stick it to religious conservatives and straight people, because you feel they have it out for you. If you can dilute the word "marriage" a ceremony born in the church, you will feel like you won something. I can read you like a book. Unfortunately, your attitude is all too prevalent among the gay population, and you are setting your cause back decades…keep on talking smart one!! I'll see you at EL COYOTE, you know you love it…

    So come on Perez — when are you going to go after Twilight? The author is Mormon, pays her tithing and has been quoted as saying that The Book of Mormon is the most influential book in her life — and she graduated from BYU… oh and I believe she lives in Arizona — a state that also just passed a no gay marriage law…

    But you don't say a thing about boycotting TWILIGHT — none of y'all are organizing TWILIGHT boycotts since a good amount of that money will end up back at the church when she pays her 10%.

    Maybe because you know that TWILIGHT is so popular that you'd be called out for being ridiculous. A restaurant here, a theater there — whatever.

    If you really wanted to make a statement you would not talk about TWILIGHT, you'd go after TWILIGHT, you wouldn't allow advertising banners, etc… but you won't stand up to that big money making machine, you won't go against something so popular with nearly every teen girl in the country.

    You are lumping ALL Mormons together over and over in your posts and bashing them every chance you get — TWILIGHT is opening and would be a great opportunity for you and your agenda, but nothing… smells like fear to me



  91. 191

    Oh, does that piss me off….I've been going to El Coyote for years, and to hear this is very upsetting. Buh bye cheap margaritas…you've lost a customer.

  92. kaya says – reply to this


    192

    Boycotts are stupid and affect innocent people. How many No on 8 employees work there? How many of them are gay? Do you want them to lost their jobs?



  93. 193

    Re: knowitall – Hey knowitall, i suppose you think it was okay for the two guys in West Hollywood to hang an effigy of Sarah Palin by a noose…because she didn't agree with your cause. I would also bet that if a religious person hung an effigy of a well known gay person who opposed Prop 8, you would be screaming hate crime and burning down the house…nice one way street you got there…you ask for tolerance, but are unwilling to give it. You are a hypocrite…and I laugh at you…

    Re: Wendy23
    Before you start puking ugly comments out the mouth why don't you do a little research of what "Separation of Church & State" really means. By your comment its obvious that you don't have any idea what it means. ONCE YOU ACTUALLY READ UP ON IT AND KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, THEN MAYBE EVERYONE WON'T BE ROLLING THEIR EYES AT YOUR HIDEOUS ATTEMPT OF TRYING TO SOUND COOL WITH SOME LAME REMARK.

  99. 199

    Approx…………..2% of California is Mormon………….Do so me homework 2% is not enough to cause your problem you should boycott the other 75% or so that didnt want it……..The map of who voted how is available on the internet and it was not the Mormons alone get over it Perez



  100. 200

    Clamb-like I said the map clearly shows who voted with gays against the republican led hate proporistion 8, Those were coastal and about 30 miles inland,they were the more educated they were the more affluent. They were the under 30,they were jewish,they were white and they were asian. The people voting against gays were republicans,blacks,mexicans,people over 65 and fully funded by the mormon cult. Thats the state of Ca, Oh and IM sure the republcian led ca supreme court wont let this immoral prop stand,you cant amend the constitution with hate with a bare majority to overturn the courts decision. Oh and Im glad to hear that bigoted trash like you all of a sudden support civil unions and all rights for gays if we just dont call it marriage,ok,because all around the country the republican party is pushing and agenda that doesnt even let gay people have civil rights etc…. So the truth of the matter most gays in this country are not lucky enough to even live in a state that has civil unions,I think there is only about 3 states that offer that,so you are saying gays will get civil unions through-out the country,they will get all the same rights,will get all the tax benefits for their union from state and federel and they wont be kicked out of the military because they were born gay. Well if thats what you are saying thats a new approach for the red state cesspool republican party.
