== Request for cleanup ==
== Merger proposal ==


I don't think [[November 15, 2008 anti-Proposition 8 protests]] was impactful enough to merit an article separate from this – maybe this warrants a few sentences to a paragraph as a merge to this article?

This is false. There's no citation for it because no such column existed. An ad, purchased by The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, ran in the NY Times using the phrase "mob veto". It wasn't a column, and shouldn't be attributed to the paper. Possibly redundant (definitely more political) page [[Protests against Proposition 8 supporters]] is more accurate.

The ad, headlined “No Mob Veto,” claims that since Prop. 8 passed, angry gays have engaged in mob-like and threatening actions, some disguised as demonstrations, over the vote to ban same-gender marriage in California.]

I'm doing personal research on the repeal process of Proposition 8, and would definitely like to also find the link to the original article. Am new to editing wikipedia, saw this, wanted to update it. Broken reference link to reference 268, refers me to the home page of SFGATE, not the article link.
