california prop eight was going to pass. i gotta say right now i'm hoping that doesn't happen tomorrow but right now the gay bashing amendment is ahead in north carolina. >> and yet you know what? let me give you a little happy bit of hope. >> stephanie: all right. >> i strangely enough have lots of friends in cookeville, tennessee, a town of about 30,000 people between nashville and knoxville. this past weekend they had the very first gay pride rally that that town has ever had. and it was well-attended. i believe there were a few protestors outside but it was held in a city park. it was -- they got permits from the city. the city said sure, go ahead! because gay money is big money. and there were people in that town that said i have been here my whole life and i never thought i would see this happen. >> wow. >> people were saying that of course positively and negatively. >> stephanie: i base my

nervousness about north carolina on one thing and that is that i talk to my 89-year-old republican mom yesterday. we love each other primarily because we don't talk politics. we had a lovely conversation and then somehow amendment one came up and i can't remember what i said. it would affect people unmarried, straight people that are unmarried as well, you know. and she's like oh, well, dear, i've heard other things about it too. i said i'm sure you have on fox news. let's not talk about that now. but i'm saying they're good about this misinformation campaign. >> totally. they're going to make everybody feel as if it is a threat somehow. i don't know. to their children that gay married couples will be kidnapping their children so they can pretend to playhouse. >> only if they're priests. >> that's true, that's true. >> stephanie: well, we'll see. i know that there certainly is -- we've talked to people last week, the ground is right for an upset as well. i think the more people get the right information in the polling is what they're showing is they

are going to vote against it. because a lot of people, like i say, they were good enough at the misinformation like they were out here in california, that's why i think it got ahead because people didn't realize what it actually did. >> there has also been a number of -- a really well-organized movement in north carolina against it. there have been a number of rallies against it. i know -- i think that california to an extent, sort of took it for granted. oh no, there's no way it is going to pass. the opposition's prop was not as organized as it could have been. i don't think they're doing that in north carolina. i think they're taking it even more seriously than california did. >> stephanie: yeah. we were all sitting out here sipping mai tais going oh, please that will be like us getting faced on gay rights by iowa. >> come in here and change our gay rights.

its passage will also take away health insurance from children and could even take away domestic violence protections from women. so the real effect of the law is not to keep the traditional definition of "marriage." it's already done that. the real effect of the law would be to hurt families and drive away jobs. north carolina can do better. again, this is bill clinton asking you to please vote against amendment one. >> stephanie: thank you. ♪ let's hear it for the boy ♪ >> stephanie: it would take away hospital visitation rights from unmarried straight couples as well. it is a slippery slope when you start deciding who can you can take rights away from. >> it is taking away rights that people are already afforded in north carolina. >> stephanie:y which is why it was a big deal here in california. tarin in los angeles. >> caller: i'm in support of gay rights and marriage equality.

>> stephanie: thank you. >> caller: but i also want to say that hypocritical as it may be, black people are seriously religious. we want to rob a black neighborhood, you need to come on sunday between 8:00 and 1:00 p.m. >> stephanie: let me write that down. >> caller: it is a religious thing for a lot of african-americans but i also wanted to say gay does not equal tolerance. gay does not equal nonprejudice. so i think a lot of gay people voted for mccain in the last election. it doesn't necessarily mean that because you're gay you're liberal quote-unquote. >> stephanie: yeah. com i'm just saying like, not all people are african-american. it is not like it is just us. when you make the statement about the trayvon martin i had you guys back on the trayvon martin. i would hope -- based on the fact he was a child murdered by a grown man and whether or not he was african-american is

irrelevant. >> stephanie: the fact that he was african-american was relevant in this case in my opinion. >> caller: it is relevant. i'm hoping that you will fight for him based on the fact that he's a child. >> stephanie: i think it is ridiculous when they say there wasn't a racial. suspicious black kids, you know. >> caller: i don't question. i hope that you would be in support of that just because it was a child. >> stephanie: the important thing is i had your back and you have my big gay back. >> caller: i do. i know some gay people that voted -- some gay black people. >> stephanie: you know gay black people that voted -- wow, they voted to take their own rights away? >> caller: yes because it was a religious thing. i'm telling you, the girl who does my hair is gay.

she said she knew it. >> stephanie: you know what you say to her? why are you hitting yourself? why are you hitting yourself? >> caller: i asked her. why would you say that? because that's what the bible says. that's how i feel. i know people who truly -- i don't know. >> stephanie: karen, i appreciate it. wowy. yikes. i have entirely too many rights. i need to get rid of some of these. >> the bible was also pro slavery in the old testament. >> stephanie: we've talked about this a million times with the echestastical movement. there are so many things in the bible. why do they pick that one thing? there are so many other things. we need to get -- >> women talking in public. >> hello. blah, blah blah. especially women who talk as much as i talk. we need to get to long john silvers and take out some shrimp eaters. >> i think i'm wearing a

cotton-poly blend. >> stephanie: stephanie in illinois. >> caller: i don't consider i'm an expert at this but i can tell you one thing. these black people are talking about basically against homosexuality. it is a biggest farce. my father has sang in the church since he was 6 years old. he's 83. he's saying most of the major churches in the city of chicago and one thing i can guarantee and i'll argue anybody down to the grave. the majority of male musicians and choir directors in the church are gay men.
