Romney Blamed for "Attack" on Gays

Joshua Friedes, a pro-gay advocate with the Right to Marry Coalition of Massachusetts, accused Gov. Mitt Romney for a "mean-spirited, inhumane and cruel ... attack on gay and lesbian families."

Romney wants to put a ballot initiative for citizens to vote on whether to outlaw gay marriage and civil unions. Friedes added, "This new step is very out of line with Massachusetts voters." If that is the case, then there should be no problem if the question appears on the ballot for voters to decide.
