Gay Marriage in the USA--part 2

The most important thing for gay rights supporters, I believe, is that the Supreme Court did vote in favour of gay marriage.  It's a done deal.  If there's going to be some opposition and negative feelings, it's nothing that we haven't seen here in Canada....  And the laws are on the side of the gay supporters.

Have been writing in my first blog--Waterlily Story--about a movie which I believe the police are going to make soon....  This movie--as has been discussed but not yet confirmed behind the scenes--has a potential to do a lot of good in reducing prejudice and bad feelings against gays and gay marriage.  I believe that.  Of course, the proof is in the pudding!  Right?  But for the sake of argument, if the police don't do a good job with the movie there's always a chance of someone else doing another movie....  We're not limited by one, single film!  [And I'm sorry to express doubts at this time....  It's not that I want to be negative.]  Nobody has specifically asked for my help with the film and they haven't given me any details, so I don't know for sure what's going on except that a certain police group is in charge of it....  And I think I'm satisfied to wait for these police to take the lead....  Have said so elsewhere....

If some of my firefighter friends from the police project are still hoping for me to continue my writing to California, I'm sorry that I'll have to disappoint them.  That's my decision.  I don't believe there's much value in me continuing my confidential writing....  I believe the movie would be a lot more helpful....  [I can't compare to that, I don't believe!!!]

Have also expressed in more than one place that the police--among themselves--and the firefighters have been competing a lot, in the police project....  And I've told my California contacts, which I believe includes firefighters, that it's going to be time for the parties to cooperate with each other and to share their information among themselves....  The competition served a place for a while but it seems that time is over, if they ever want to get something more accomplished from here....  And I believe justice and fairness will prevail, one way or another!  It may take a little while but that's okay....

NOTE ADDED ON JULY 30:  When I say the police are going to make a movie, I really mean they're going to hire a commercial filmmaker.... They're not going to make the movie, themselves, of course.
