Oh yeah, sorry, as for a "simple" way to change minds on the issue, although
I doubt any simple solutions are possible, I'd say the best idea would be to
play on apathy. Make it as clear as possible that Prop 8 won't effect their
lives in any direct manner. I don't know if it would garner support,
probably not, but it may calm down any inclinations toward protest...
