Proposition 2 foes will counter Klan rally
Group schedules 'nonviolent' vigil in Austin, vows not to engage KKK

NOV. 8 ELECTIONS
STATEWIDE PROPOSITIONS:
AUSTIN - Opponents of a constitutional amendment on the Nov. 8 ballot
that would bar same-sex marriage will hold a vigil Saturday in
response to a planned "anti-homosexual marriage rally" sponsored by
the Ku Klux Klan.
"We will speak for ourselves and not engage the Klan in their
rhetoric. It will be a peaceful, nonviolent demonstration," said Glen
Maxey, a former legislator who heads the anti-proposition group No
Nonsense in November.
A Klan group, the American White Knights, has reserved space on
Austin's City Hall plaza for a rally in favor of Proposition 2, the
constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one
woman.
Texas statutes already ban recognition of gay marriage in Texas.
The No Nonsense group plans to hold a vigil on a bridge in the middle
of Town Lake, about half a block from where the Klan rally will occur.
Participants will be asked to sign a pledge of nonviolence.
Backers of the amendment, including the Texas Restoration Project,
which is encouraging Christian conservatives to vote in the election,
have distanced themselves from the Klan activity.
Opponents of the amendment also have scheduled a Sunday session at the
Texas Capitol. State Rep. Senfronia Thompson, D-Houston, will be the
guest speaker at that event.
