Sometime after 2000 there was a vote that defined marriage as the union between two people of the opposite sex (i.e. a man and a woman)
The vote passed by 61% or a little more of the voting public.
With in a year four (4) California supreme court judges in San Fransisco reversed the vote. Four people out of the 4,000,000 other people that voted against same sex marriage over turned the vote.
What about those rights? No offense but a vote is a vote, if it had been that the majority voted for same sex marriage then that would have been the last heard of it. No one but maybe a handful of people would have complained and vote over. Not in this case, its been pushed and slammed as how unfair it is and no there's not going to be classes in school. In fact this is not a true statement as it has not been passed or over-turned.
In a few states that it has been passed kindergarten students, children of 5 years old have been sent home with information about same sex families and promoting it as just another part of education. When parents complained because or religious or moral feelings these parents have been thrown in jail for obstruction of justice (e.i. wanting to opt out of the lesions for their children) frankly a five year old is just to young to learn about sex period, straight or gay.
If passed a pastor that refuses to marry a same sex couple can be arrested and cost the church its non-profit tax exempt status.
With one vote the straight family or person will lose the right to freedom of speech and the freedom of religion.
Don't get me wrong, I feel there should be a civil union better then what we have for all couples that include insurance over each other and inheritance. After all this is what they are truly asking for.
Prop 22 passed.
In a California Supreme Court ruling, judges voted that Prop 22 was unconstitutional, ruling
that the California legislative and initiative measures limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples violate the state constitutional rights of same-sex couples and may not be used to preclude same-sex couples from marrying

Did your imaginary friend tell you that? Anecdotal stories =/= truth
Prop 8 is at the very least a recognition by Prop 22 backers that Prop 22 was unconstitutional. At least get your facts straight and lose the scare-tactics if you want to talk about this rationally.
