No on Proposition 8's Protest at LDS Los Angeles Temple

As we speak the tolerant No Crowd is in front of the LDS Los Angeles Temple. Funny that they direct their ire to a group that makes up no more than 2% of California's population. Didn't nearly 53% vote in favor of Prop 8?

Hundreds of protesters marched near the landmark Los Angeles California Temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Westwood today to protest the church's strong support for Proposition 8.

Opponents of Proposition 8, which outlawed gay marriage in California, were waving banners and chanting. A similar protests occurred on Wednesday night in Hollywood and West Hollywood.

Los Angeles Police Department officials say they won't be caught off-guard as they were last night, when they were required to call a tactical alert after a few members of the mostly peaceful crowd got out of hand. The protest is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. off Santa Monica Boulevard.
