I was at work this morning when I got a call from Iowa. (515) 724-7047. It was a robocall screeching about the upcoming end of civilization that would surely occur if traditional marriage were sullied by attempts at allowing same-sex couples to marry. This was a call from Iowa, about legislation in Illinois. I live in neither state (though have lived in both in the past). Who Called US lists this number as a source of previous right-wing robocalls...The blogger was so annoyed that s/he went ahead and donated money to Lambda Legal.
It was pretty irritating to get a call like this on this particular phone number during work. My job is such that I absolutely have to answer phone calls, and I get them from many different area codes. Whoever gave them my number didn't do a very good job screening, as I can't imagine anything that would suggest I'd be receptive to a homophobic robo-rant.
The twist for me is that usually it's out-of-state people from Illinois (or New Jersey or Colorado or... ) who bother my Iowa home with robocalls about the evils of gay marriage or progressive politicians or gun rights or whatever.
The irony for me is that the 515 robocaller is calling from Iowa -- where marriage equality has existed for 3.5 years. Meanwhile, civilization is still rolling along. Just like civilization will continue to roll along if/when marriage equality gets passed in Illinois in 2013.
