Hey there,
Just remember that if you’re in San Diego for the big Comic-Con, and you’re on your way out to have a bit to eat or a drink later in the evening? Fuck the Hyatt.

San Diego hotel magnate Doug Manchester gave$125,000 to Yes on Prop 8, the initiative constitutional amendment that banned same-sex marriage in California.
If you believe in equality, it’s time to fight back.
Please join Californians Against Hate in boycotting Manchester’s three hotels:
- Manchester Grand Hyatt, San Diego, CA
- Grand del Mar Resort, San Diego, CA
- Whitetail Club and Resort, McCall, Idaho
Please tell your friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to boycott Manchester hotels. We do not want to spend our hard earned money at Doug Manchester’s hotels only to have him use it to take away our rights.
Together, we can stand for equality — and against hate.
Seriously, just don’t go. Quit rationalizing, quit pretending that writing something pro-gay on your $20 bill while you put it in his pocket does anything, just don’t go. There are hundreds of other bars, restaurants, and hotels not owned by a homophobe. Go to one of those instead.
Or, as my good friend Andrew Wheeler recently summed up it up at his blog:
“Most people don’t have what it takes to be a hero, and stand up when it’s difficult to do so – not when there are beers on the table and the company is buying. But these people don’t have to be villains.”

There’s really no excuse.
