Brad Pitt Donates $100,000 To Fight Gay Marriage Ban
Posted on Thu Sep 18, 2008 07:27 AM PDT
Brad Pitt announced yesterday that he's donating $100,000 to fight California's Proposition 8, according to the LA Times. Prop 8 is a November ballot initiative, and if it passes, it would eliminate same-sex couples' right to marry.
Pitt said in a statement: "Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8."
It's no secret that Brad supports gay marriage - back in September of 2006, Pitt told Esquire magazine, "Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able."

we just don't give a f***
Read the Bible Brad-- Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve--America was founded by Christians so Brad you are wrong. Go to Iraq or Cuba or China and express your right to live as you please.

What a douche bag.
big f**king deal. $100,000 is like a dime for him. brangelina go away forever already.
the only reason he all the sudden believe that now is because his sig. other (angie) used to be a gross lesbian and so he has no choice. get some balls brad.. and do whats right. i bet you'll change your tune when one of your kids becomes gay.. you wont like it... i know it... wait and see!!!
I suppose the Media will now glorify and elevate him even more ?????
More Oscar roles will also come his way,
cany you say good investement?? roll eyes!!!
Why is Brad always issuing press releases about money he's donating the same weekend he has a movie out? Angie did the same thing the weekend Wanted was released. Isn't this just shameless PR?
You people are homophobic and misogynistic creeps. For God's sake, has evolution just completely skipped over America? Bible thump all you want, but humanity is not based on a book that has been misinterpreted for 2,000 years. Grow a brain people and stop pontificating about your antiquated and misguided religious beliefs. They are not the least bit spiritual, instead solely relying on dogma and hatred to continue spreading their disgusting judgement.
GOD LOVES US ALL, FOR HE CREATED US THIS WAY!
OH MY FUCKING GOD. THAT ADAM AND STEVE SHIT HAS GOT TO STOP. you are a fucking idiot. completely.
there was no adam and eve. so quit bible thumping. you sound like a fucking moron.
Yep, a divorced man who fathered 3 kids out of wedlock is exactly who I want to learn marital values from.
I'm sure all of you on this site are too young to remember when this country had morals and values. Trust me, it was nice. Sorry you all missed out on it. Gay marriage is an oxy-moron.
moron+besexual=good mariage.good luck.he lives her life and he sound like stupid doll.
therefore he will nto vote for the Republicans, Palin hates gay people. Angi's father must be spitting dragon fire lol.
Like we care if those two weirdos get married or not. Brad really thinks he's the shit and so does Angelina. I think they're weird, terrible parents, and famewhores to the MAX.
Brian, Thank you. Well said. We dont have a problem with child porn being so open and disgusting...but OMY talk about gays and everyone fringes. What a bunch of hiprocrits. Love Life instead...Brad and Angelina, you are judged by your actions and you have with actions shown to be very humanitarian. Thank you for that, you represent us well to the rest of the world. That is what America stands for FREEDOM. I am proud to be an American.
Who's we? Maybe you don't have a problem with child porn, but I bet more people are against child porn than gay marriage, you retard.
I think Pitt ROCKS! More power to him...Ellen & Portia have given ZILCH to this cause...Love this man!
I know for sure god didn't create nor condone homosexuality!!! PROP 8 WILL PASS!!!
If I thought he was sincere, that might be noteworthy. However, knowing how he treated people (specifically, the gay kids) in high school, I find it hard to believe he cares at all!
High school?? WTF? Pitt is 44..I assume he has been out of high school for what..30 plus years? Good gawd...Time to live in the present...Post 5:27pm..
High school??? WTF? Pitt is 44..I assume he has been out of friggin` High school for at least 25 years? Good gawd..Time to live in the PRESENT post 5:27 PM...Egads
So I guess everyone has changed opinions dramatically in twenty years?
Brad is so right!!!! If there r people who disagree with him (about this topic) they should burn in hell!!
nuff said

ellen lindsay o'donnell is an idiot along with the rest of the biblethumper sheeps on here.
If two people of the same sex want to get married, how does it hurt anyone else? Why are there so many stupid people in this world that have nothing better to do than be scared of lesbians or gays??? I think you all are afraid your gay or lesbian yourselves. Get over it and your stupid predjudices...it makes you ugly and stupid. This comes from a straight woman who doesn't give a crap if two women want to get married or two men. Who the f cares...it doesn't affect me or my life or anyone else's besides those people choosing to make a commitment to another person!!!
And all of you stupid f'in bible thumpers that think that today's bible is real are just as f'in ridiculous too. That book was made to try and control people and give a conscience and to help teach what is right and wrong so that society didn't kill each other a loooong time ago. It's been rewritten and rewritten so many times to fit into a certain belief it's not even the same original book. Stop being sheep people!! and start minding your own business' and take care of yourself and your families, not worrying your little brains over other people getting married will make you feel much better. Try it, stop hating

Brad giving $100,000 to fight the banning of gay marriage, is the same if he had given $100,000 to watch doctors pull his twins from Angelina, feet first, all except their heads, and plunge scissors in their little spines and suck their brains out to deliver dead babies. As "HORRIFIC" as that is, so is same-sex marriage, and so is aborting some 47,000,000 babies in the womb, since Roe vs Wade, and so is living together without being married, and also having babies out of wedlock. Like it or not, America is totally, out of control! Nations rise and fall. I pray these things will not make this country fall. I pray we REPENT OF OUR WICKED WAYS!
haha, this last comment is aload of shit, im sorry guys, AMERICA lives in the past, u hate evryone that is differant, grow up and stop reading the bible u morons, evryone has the same rights, so get over it, u pathetic losers. GOD WAS NEVER ALIVE :)
