One of the most respected actors of our times, Sir Ian McKellen is speaking out for HIS BROTHERS.
The openly gay thespian, via Beverly Hills High School Gay Straight Alliance, natch, issued his statement against California's Proposition 8 today:
California's influence stretches across the world through the imagination of its citizens in films and through the internet. At the same time, its welcome to strangers has meant it has been home to those escaping oppression, many of whom have identified themselves as gay. For both reasons I feel involved in the outcome of voting over Proposition 8.
…
The world has turned to a point where any discrimination against gay people in your state, in your country, in our world is unseemly and unnecessarily cruel. If two people wish to declare their love for each other, who are the rest of us to stand in their way?

And of course with proper British manners and politeness, Sir Ian says PLEASE to the NO ON PROP 8.
WE LOVE YOU SIR IAN.....
Remember that one Oscar ceremony, they cut to a shot of Sir Ian in the audience and he was holding hands with THE HOTTEST MAN!!!!
Way to go, YOU'VE ALWAYS ROCKED IN OUR BOOK!!
