On Nov. 15th, in hundreds of cities across the US, protesters gathered to show frustration over the ballot initiatives that passed in Arizona, California and Florida banning same sex marriage and to send a message to state and the federal governments that marriage is a civil right that should be afforded to all citizens. In Rochester, despite it being a cold, rainy day about a 150 gay and straight people gathered outside the Monroe County building to send the message to Albany and Washington DC. During the protest it was kind of ironic that a wedding party pulled up in a bus to go into the county building and had to pass through the protesters.
