The Prop 8 Trial: Day Five

FDL, the Courage Campaign, and the San Jose Mercury News have live-blogged all day. Up to the minute aggregated tweets can be read here. Tapped has highlights from the week. From FDL's live-blogging of Helen Zia's testimony on whether she experienced discrimination during the Prop 8 campaign:

When we would be out on streets, handing out fliers. People would come up and say, “you fucking dyke, you’re going to die and burn in hell. You’re an abomination...” [They would say that my] marriage is going to cause people to have sex with animals. That my marriage is going to cause them to marry other people so there will be more polygamy, [that it] is going to cause great harm to their children, [and] cause molestation of children. That my marriage to Leah [would] cause [the] end of human race...It was a highly painful and discriminatory and hurtful message.
