The Face of Anti-Gay Hatred

Last Tuesday night, one of the sources that I was going to in order to check the status of Maine's Question 1 was the website of the Portland Press Herald. After the networks reported that Question 1 had passed, and that the people of Maine had once again made gay marriage illegal, The Portland Press Herald had this photo from photographer John Ewing:


This woman participated in a campaign to strip committed couples of the right to enter into the same agreement people have enjoyed since the very beginnings of civilization itself.

And the expression on her face at the successful robbery of equality for thousands of couples? Pure elation.

It's disgusting.
