Prop. 107 necessary - not radical

Proposition 107 (Protect Marriage Arizona) is nothing new or radical to our state. We currently have a state law that defines marriage as being between one man and one woman. Over 300,000 AZ voters signed petitions to get Prop.107 on the ballot. This is not some conservative witch hunt, but an opportunity for Arizona citizens to not become victims like the citizens of Massachusetts. Remember what happened there?With no say from the voters or legislators, the Massachusetts Supreme Court decided that the state constitution mandated that homosexual marriage be allowed. Just like that the moral and social landscape was hijacked by their state judiciary. Two years later, MA citizens are heartily gathering signatures to amend their constitution to define marriage as being between one man and one woman.A constitutional amendment is the best protection of the institution of marriage from the onslaught of small but influential groups. Twenty states have already amended their constitutions to protect traditional marriage with an unheard of passage rate of 70%.The best defense against the twisting of constitutions is a clear definition of marriage in the Arizona Constitution. Vote yes on Proposition 107 and defend our laws from future judicial activism!
