The American Foundation for Equal Rights sent along this wonderful video from Prop 8 Plaintiffs Kris Perry & Sandy Stier and Paul Katami & Jeff Zarrillo. I wanted to share these two families’ best wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving. I think their very simple wishes for this holiday illustrate how all families are the same: our hopes and dreams, and our rights and responsibilities.
Happy Thanksgiving!

What brave, regular people, to put themselves out there for all time.
It’s the right thing to do. That had better be its own reward, because it sure as hell isn’t the easy thing to do.
Hey there, EDP — happy day to you!
Can’t get the video to play.
Absolutely wonderful. Now how could anyone deny them being together and having the same benefits and opportunties at happiness that heterosexuals have? Keith Olbermann was right, the issue is about love and the denial of some to not have the opportunity to share themselves with another in love and companionship. Religious Right groups and people who think like them, screw you!!
Works for me, maybe try to re-load of the page and let it completely finish before hitting play?
