Declaration of REDACTED in Support of Plaintiffs' Motion for Summary Judgment

I, REDACTED , make the following declaration pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1746: 1. I am a resident of the state of California over 18 years of age, and my statements herein are based on personal knowledge. 2. I supported the passage of Proposition 8. 3. In support of Proposition 8, I donated over $X,XXX to ProtectMarriage.com - Yes on 8, a Project of California Renewal. 4. In support of Proposition 8, I also placed a bumper sticker on my car. 5. Because of my support of Proposition 8, my name was published on a "blacklist" of donors to Proposition 8. This made me concerned for the safety of my boys, and I instructed the principal at their school to alert the teachers that only my wife or I was to pick them up from school. Although most of the websites with blacklists have since been taken down, the San Francisco Chronicle now has a site where donors to Proposition 8 can be looked up. Additionally, I am very concerned about www.eightmaps.com, where people can obtain maps directing them to the homes of people who supported Proposition 8. 6. About a week after the November 2008 election, someone ordered a book containing the greatest homosexual love stories of all time and sent it to me. Amazon would not tell me who sent this book. 7. On the night of the election, when Proposition 8 passed, someone painted the face of the statute of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, outside of my church orange. 8. Because of these incidents, if I donate to a cause similar to Proposition 8 in the future, I may donate a lesser amount under the disclosure threshold, or donate to an organization in a way that will not require the disclosure of my name. I DECLARE UNDER PENALTY OF PERJURY THAT THE FOREGOING IS TRUE AND CORRECT.

Executed on:
