Many Mormons believe they are being unfairly targeted and compare the anti-Mormon sentiment to a witch hunt.
“This is not fair – a lot of people wanted this passed, not just Mormons,” said Lynnette Black of Sacramento who rallied in support of Eckern in front of Music Circus last week. “We (church members) worked hard and within the law. It’s very hard to see this attitude toward Mormons.”
West, spokeswoman for the church, said the Mormons were part of a coalition that supported the ballot measure.
“We’re only 2 percent of the population,” West said. “We feel we’re getting too much credit.”
IRONY ALERT!! WOOP! WOOP! WOOP!
They wanted to unfairly discriminate against a minority class of citizenry, now they don’t feel like it’s fair to be the TARGET of that kind of sentiment?
The REALLY ironic thing here is that while prop 8 will likely be overturned in the courts, the self-selection and identification of these people as homophobic hate mongers will last forever.
