not for S.Cal it aint....its pretty accurate.....N.Cal is like a different state....Those "you live among" is not really an accurate way to determine the views of an entire state, that's really flawed actually.who cares if you grew up there ....when did you leave and was it northern or southern cal.....and no i trust what i see and hear with those i live among over some dumbass poll...and after 50 years living in the middle of Hispanics.....the men dont care for "maricons"....and i voted for gay marriage twice....it aint my fault if your wonderful party did not do the same back then....so deal with that asswipe....I grew up there, idiot.yea lots of friends....how many?....so you are just going by some ones opinion that you know......we were told back during those propositions that the state democrats were for gay marriage back then,gee look what happened with those propositions.......you are just another who lives many miles away going by what someone tells you about California....there are lots of Mexicans in California,especially the men, who are not that comfortable with gays....S.Cal is very different than N.Cal....and please dont tell me that someone took a poll of the Hispanics in S.Cal....you get their true attitudes by actually knowing many....If you're referring to California I have a lot of friends and family there but anecdotal stories aren't going to get you anywhere.is it?.....how long have you lived there?.....Over a decade ago. Gay marriage is supported by most Californians.What about the right to marry the one you love without the government telling you that it's icky?A conservative, at least when that word had a real definition, meant being inherently against expanding government power and authority. Conservatism embraces freedom and privacy, and only real threat to others would justify changing and supporting increasing government at the expense of freedom and privacy.
You work a full day. You come home
You have a beer
Or
You have a bong hit
Neither activity would in any way bother a conservative. But here we are with self proclaimed "conservatives" embracing increased government power and authority at the expense of freedom and privacy over ... A plant.
Nice.
The origin of marijuana prohibition is a case study of the truth of conservatism, that big government should not be trusted, and that those in government will lie and spread fear and panic to keep themselves in power. The head of prohibition knew prohibition was going to be repealed (because the church going sub human morons who pushed it had no clue what they were doing, and in the end the American people figured out that al Capone was worse than alcohol). So this guy created a new issue, a new cause, to keep his job and title and budget etc. marijuana was the target. Using American taxdollars, this uber greedy kleptocratic traitor funded the making of mass misinfo about marijuana, most famously the movie Reefer Madness, which many morons still believe. In reality, by pushing marijuana underground, we enriched and empowered criminal elements here and abroad, and packed our prisons with people who are not a threat to society.
The war on marijuana is the epitome of BIG GOVERNMENT using lies, falsehoods, propaganda, and the law to do unreal harm to America and abroad for the sole purpose of enriching and empowering liars in government.
Nobody who opposes total marijuana legalization is in any way a conservative.
The pot haters are classic morons with bird brains filled with falsehoods who want big government to rescue them from the bogeyman.....
Neat. It's funny how liberals have usually been more open to marijuana legalization.
What about the right to marry the one you love without the government telling you that it's icky? Traditionally where have conservatives stood on that?
that was voted down twice in California.....and yes lots of liberals voted it down......
Maybe try living in the here and now.
It's long been known that gay marriage has approval in California, even way back in 2013.

Poll Finds Record Support for Same-Sex Marriage in California
The same week the Obama administration filed a brief urging the Supreme Court to strike down California’s ban on same-sex marriage, a new Field Poll was r…fivethirtyeight.com

Not exactly shocking when you consider most of the country is just fine with gay marriage.
Why would someone just take a poll of Hispanics when looking for the totality of public opinion on gay marriage? No wonder you don't trust polls, you don't even understand them.
Gay marriage has popular support in California and across the country, deal with it.
Anyway, sorry Democrats have always been more in favor of gay marriage than the wingnuts. Just look at this board as an example.
The two sides of the same state having their little bitch fest means nothing to me.
The Democratic Party endorsed prop. 64. Where was the California Republican party?
