I am 35 years old, straight & a military veteran. I have never in my life participated in a civil protest before, but today I couldn’t ignore the call.
Today is game-day at OSU’s Beaver Stadium in Corvallis, so the traffic was very heavy for this college town of 50,000. There were a few haters giving us the thumbs-down or other rude gestures on the way to the game, but overwhelmingly the response was enthusiastic & supportive honking from the football crowd. Of the 100+ protesters, a very large portion of them were straight and there with their spouse or family.
My gay brother-in-law Mark passed away a few weeks ago. I wish he could have lived a little while longer to see this fight finally won.
