Mormons are holding EMERGENCY press conference in SANTA MONICA at NOON!

Friday, November 14, 200812:00pm - 3:00pm, Double Tree Inn, 201 East MacArthur Boulevard, Santa Ana, CA

URGENT: We just learned that TODAY (Friday) at NOON, the Mormons are holding an urgent Prop 8 Press Conference in the main ballroom of the Doubletree Hotel in Santa Ana, at 201 E. MacArthur Blvd.

We MUST be there in front of the hotel to greet them peacefully and get our own press coverage.

The Doubletree Hotel is located 0.2 miles along Macarthur Blvd. NW of the 55 freeway, and 300 feet from S. Main St., nr. Imperial Promenade.

They are asking their "Yes" supporters to bring their "Yes on Prop 8" signs and want to have 250 people in attendance with signs of any kind.

We MUST have equivalent press coverage, so it is ESSENTIAL that we be in front of the hotel with our signs, representing the righteous.

Their pitch will most likely be their right to pass whatever laws they want as well as their First Amendment Rights.

They want all nationalities and faith groups represented (even the Tongan Mormans!)

They are upset over the display of intolerance they have been experiencing the past week and want the media to know that!!!

ALL OUT FOR EQUAL RIGHTS THIS SATURDAY!!



This Saturday, over 200 cities in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, DC and six foreign countries are participating in simultaneous anti-Proposition 8 protests at 10:30 PM Pacific Standard Time!! Los Angeles's protest is at 10:30 AM PST at Los Angeles City Hall at 200 N Spring St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.

(Go to www.jointheimpact.com for a full list of the protests in other cities)

WHY PROTEST?

1. The Supreme Court in California (and the other states that voted on anti-gay measures)has yet to rule on whether the referendum is legally valid. As we've seen in previoushistoric court decisions, bold public pressure can play a crucial rule in forcing the courts to respect the legal rights of minorities who face discrimination.

2. We are showing solidarity with LGBTQI people in California, Florida, Arizona, Arkansas, around the nation and around the world.

Marriage Equality USA is a supporting organization of the Join the Impact Rally taking place worldwide this Saturday!
