TO HELP DEFEND TRUE MARRIAGE: "Like" it / Share it / and post it on Facebook. Connect with us: http://www.facebook.com/TFPStudentAction https://twitter.com/tfpsa http://www.tfpstudentaction.org/ A bill to allow same-sex "marriage" in Maine was signed into law in 2009 by Governor Baldacci, following legislative approval. But opponents successfully petitioned for a referendum on the issue. A van load of motivated volunteers of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) set out for Maine and Rhode Island to help protect true marriage. The members' method was to appeal directly to the people on the street by holding signs that said, "Honk for Traditional Marriage." Having a large banner, "God's Marriage = 1 Man + 1 Woman," and the bagpipes drew lots of attention. Overwhelming Support Starting in Maine, the TFP volunteers held an average of four campaigns a day for six days, visiting 14 cities. The extraordinary support received in Waterville was a foreshadow of the support we would later see in other cities. People responded very well. Even people without horns wanted to express their support. For example, a biker said: "I don't have a horn, but beep, beep, beep." There were at least 5 honks for every negative reaction. More and more people are fed up with immorality being forced upon them. In Bangor, a gentleman said, "If homosexuality is 'marriage', what is my marriage? It's a mockery of my marriage!!" Others pointed to their marriage rings, thus, showing everyone that they were traditionally married and proud of it. At several campaign stops TFP volunteers were joined by local friends. Although the caravan only spent two days in Rhode Island there were many people in favor, especially among the youth. In Pawtucket, children walking back from school exclaimed: "Honk, honk, honk" while giving us a thumbs up. http://www.tfpstudentaction.org/politically-incorrect/homosexuality/10-reasons-why-homosexual-marriage-is-harmful-and-must-be-opposed.html
