58. keep in mind that you are not *really* talking about 58%
of african americans in the united states or in california, for that matter. you are talking about 58% of african americans who voted on Prop 8 in california. african americans are roughly 8% of the population in california. when you make statements like this: "if 58% of the gay population thought black people shouldn't get married" you not only lie with statistics, you also dismiss my existence. i am black and gay...i did not support prop 8. i understand your sentiment, but it's still a false generalization.
