The Dumesnil-Vickers Family – Originally uploaded by courage.campaign

Through a random series of web page clicks, I ended up on the Flickr set from the Courage Campaign group that are protesting the decision in California to outlaw gay marriages:

This is an issue that I feel very strongly about as a long time advocate for gay rights with a large number of gay friends (one of whom was a bridesman at my wedding!). I think that all couples, same sex and hetrosexual, should have the same rights in the law and in our society. If gay couples want to get married, then I believe they should be able to. I think that loving, healthy relationships should be what we aim for in our society rather than sticking to some antiquated ideal of the family unit.

This set of photos on Flickr is a great way for people to show the world their support and solidarity for gay couples in California! I’m going to take a photo showing my support and invite you to as well.
