So the media relations lady at my school blocked me from following her Twitter account full of updates about SJSU. PURE GENIUS. WAY TO GO.

http://twitpic.com/601s4 - Protestors sit in the street in an act of civil disobedience
http://twitpic.com/601zv - Protestors at Van Ness and Grove streets #prop8
Scene is mix of chanting in the streets, media swarming, passers-by and…old friends reuniting? oh& police are just hanging out. #prop8
Sorry for lack of clarity. #prop8 still stands- no more gay marriages in ca, but those who married when it was legal are still married.
they are shouting “Civil disobedience, Van Ness and Grove.” #prop8
Some shouting and chanting, but relative calm at the #prop8 scene, even with anti-gay marriage demonstrators. crowd has moved along?
http://twitpic.com/5zzgh - Scene at courthouse in san francisco #prop8
Talk of decision keeping current married same-sex couples from suing. #prop8
at the sf courthouse. Prop 8 is a split decision. marriages that were made are still valid.
