Anti-Prop H8 Rally here in Boston

Anti-Prop H8 Rally — According to the people on stage, they said that the crowd was over 5000+ people by Boston's City Hall.

From where I was sitting, it seemed to be predominantly young people (you know you're getting old, when that means anyone younger than 30) with a few gray hairs now and again. There was a lot of energy to the crowd and some of the speakers were very good.

The take aways were that we should check out JoinTheImpactMA to find out what to do next and that our Democratic elected officials will be trying to use their new muscle to push for a repeal of DOMA and push for a Federal Hate Crimes bill that includes protections for trans folk.
