Yup, this is the massive mob Brian Brown and his fellow haters gathered for their march for marriage.
Most of them were Hispanic bus in's who were told they were going on a free trip to see the Washington monuments.
Just in case you were wondering, here's the basic gist of Archbishop Cordileone's speech:
"And let us not forget: we must also proclaim this truth especially with love for those who disagree with us on this issue, and most of all, for those who are hostile toward us. We must be careful, though, not to paint our opponents on this issue with broad strokes. There is a tendency in our culture to do this to groups of people the powerful don’t know and think they don’t like. We must not do that. We must recognize that there are people on the other side of this debate who are of good will and are sincerely trying to promote what they think is right and fair. It is misdirected good will. But even those from whom we suffer retribution – and I know some of you have suffered in very serious ways because of your stand for marriage – still, we must love them. That is what our ancestors in faith did, and we must, too. Yes, it is easy to become resentful when you are relentlessly and unfairly painted as a bigot and are punished for publicly standing by the basic truth of marriage as a foundational societal good; it is tempting to respond in kind. Don’t. For those of us who are Catholic, we just heard our Master command us in the gospel proclaimed at Mass the day before yesterday: “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. We must not allow the angry rhetoric to co-opt us into a culture of hate."
A truly disjointed mess of jumbled implications and not so subtle derisiveness.

I've been to bigger after Pride Parties. I just love that they are so proud of their racist failure.
LOL! Talk about a non-event! Isn't that the exact same speech the Cat-Licks made in the 16th century just before lighting the bonfire that burned the witches?
