Dissent Of The Day

A reader writes:

Yesterday my girl friend and I drove to downtown San Diego to attend the wine and food festival.  We encountered much difficulty because of the No on 8 Marchers. 

Efforts at mob rule have always worried me. This great democracy is fragile and I think we do not fully realize how very small numbers of people can cause great disorder. We had an election and the majority of Californians voted to preserve the thousands of years old institution of marriage.  Demonstrations like the one I witnessed yesterday gain no sympathy from those of use who still believe the the rule of law and democratic process.

I am afraid we are going to lose this country.
