Local gay, lesbian, straight citizens to protest passage of anti-gay constitutional amendments in Arizona, Florida, California

ERIE PA A group of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) and straight citizens will take to the streets of Erie to protest the passage of Proposition 8, Californias anti-gay marriage amendment, as well as other anti-gay ballot initiatives in Arkansas, Arizona and Florida.
