Oh these are VERY CREATIVE! I couldn’t think of anything but “Restore Equality” (I’m not so good with coming up with slogans and such). I love “Gay is the New Black” and “Focus on Your Own Family” — Brilliant–we’ll have to use those in San Francisco this Saturday, if that’s okay with you!!!

Of course it’s ok!!!! They aren’t mine. The two you picked are two of my faves. I also, in the moments I am trying to channel the Dalai Lama, like “Love makes a family.”

“Keep Your Church Out of My State” depends on how you’re defining the word “state” – Most every other country in the world sees “state” and thinks “nation-state” while here in the US it’s synonymous for “Congressionally represented territory of the USA” and “secular government”.
But then, I’ve just come out of a semester of international relations, so my idea of how normal people react on seeing the word “state” may be skewed.
(I wish I could come! I want to give my home state a swift kick in the constitution, but unfortunately am now a registered Virginia voter.
[My ideal sign would read, "Would *you* choose a civil union? / Neither would we." on the front and "Separate is not equal." on the back.])

Candice,
You crack me up. I WAS thinking that… duh. “Keep your church out of my STATE OF CA.”
Funny, because it’s not my normal definition of State. I usually think ‘Nation State,’ but due to the extensive involvement of the LDS Church in the State of CA, I thought, “keep the Mormons off of my state constitution.” LOL. Maybe I will carry a “Keep your Church Out of my State” sign in your honor.
I’ll add your sign suggestions to the list. Thanks. Wish you could be here too.
