As far as referring to me and extra information on it. I'm not officially part of the group, I just ended up with a extra petition pack via a friend who is one. (And admits they fucked up not getting on here, esp. since he knew Dudley wasn't doing anything to help push it.)
I know some people knew about it w/ out facebook. Had 2-3 people at work who'd already signed and aren't COAR15 involved.
I don't have any desire to use Facebook. Period. So I don't want to be forced to sign up for a Facebook account to engage in NON-FACEBOOK activities (this is one reason I canceled my Gazette subscription too ... I don't want to use FB to comment there).Quote:

I'm not sure I follow your question.Quote:

Conservatives do the EXACT same thing.Quote:

That language included in the amendment DOES NOT CAUSE there to be an ability to reverse it by a vote of the people, it merely acknowledges the reality that it could happen. I believe it may have even been required by the state to be in there so as to not violate the rights of the people to amend the state constitution (dunno about that though).
Not against ME they don't :D but you are making the case why a liberal that works in a conservative dominated field might want to eschew Facebook as well.Quote:
