Proud to sign referendum

The Spokesman-Review

According to The Spokesman-Review of June 3, same-sex “domestic partners” plan to publicize at least the names of all those who dare to sign Referendum 71, which would give voters the opportunity to vote for or against the new law “granting same-sex domestic partners many of the rights of spouses.”

Good! I and thousands like me will be delighted to let the world know that we have the backbone required to stand up for common sense, morality and biblical truth – yes, even in the face of threats and intimidation. Furthermore, I would hope, and have good reason to believe, that when many people who have not given this matter much thought one way or the other see the bullying tactics resorted to by “same-sex” proponents, they will also be eager to sign Referendum 71.
