Description
Summary:They are holding signs that read, "God Defined Marriage"; "Marriage = 81% / Man 1 Women"; "We will answer to God / #SanctityOfMarrage"; and "We Will Answer to God." One woman is wearing another is wearing a T-shirt that reads "We Dare to Defend our Rights" (over an outline of Alabama). At the rally, which was hosted by Sanctity of Marriage Alabama, counter-demonstrators interacted peacefully with participants. From the event's Facebook page: "Join believers from across Alabama at the Alabama State Capitol on June 6th at 3:00 pm, to send a united message to elected officials, the Supreme Court and the world: Alabama is for Marriage. As the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to rule on marriage in June, you have a duty to speak up while the very nature of marriage is being threatened. Devotion to Christ, love for your country and concern for your children demand immediate action."
