Fred, Linda and Lance talk about Mormon involvement in Prop 8

Chino Blanco, June 18, 2010June 18, 2010

NYC

It’s Friday night. What I wouldn’t do for a slice right about now. Happy weekend all!

This is the first (of six) of Walker’s dismissals of Prop 8 supporters’ claims. The first claim was that “tradition” is enough to maintain marriage as between a man and woman.
