- That's a pretty narrow view. Your state paved the way for
- other states to enact similar legislation. Your state just
- voted my rights away. It matters to me a great deal, and
- it does have an impact on my life. I urge you to read a
- history of the civil rights movement.

- And for those (straight and gay alike) who are not
- participating in a boycott, I think it would be great if
- you all would write or stamp "GAY $$$" on your paper money
- (no, it's not illegal) and write it on your checks if you
- spend money in Colorado.
