THIS YEAR’S 28th annual Big Sur River Run 10k race at Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park has been canceled to make way for construction that aims to mitigate potential flood damage. This summer’s Basin Complex Fire — which left the ridges surrounding the park bare of erosion-controlling veg- etation — has left the park vulnerable to mudslides. The 10k is a Big Sur institution. Each year, the event rais- es between $30,000 and $35,000, which is split between the community’s two primary nonprofit organizations, the Big Sur Volunteer Fire Brigade and the Big Sur Health Center. Nepenthe restaurant annually contributes $15,000 to the race. Next year’s race is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 24. For more information, call (831) 624-4112 or visit www.bigsur- riverrun.org.

No on Proposition 8

■ But the courts should respect the public’s wishes

THE UNITED States was founded on the principle that “all men are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights” — in other words, that human beings have fundamental rights which are not created by law, but which existed even before the first laws were written. These treasured words are found in the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution and its amendments list many of these “natural rights,” recognizing that they can not be curtailed, even under circumstances when a vast majority want them to be. Similarly, the California Constitution also recognizes these “inalienable rights,” including “pursuing and obtaining safety, happiness and privacy.” Do these fundamental rights include the right to marry someone of the same gender? It is without question that gay marriage was not one of the natural rights rec- ognized by the founders of the United States, or of California. It is literally unthinkable that a same-sex marriage would have been considered constitution- ally protected in the United States of 1783, or in California in 1849. Since those days, the unthinkable has become more than just thinkable. Indeed, the concept of gay rights has gained very wide acceptance, especially in certain parts of this state. But it is a concept that many Californians still find highly objectionable. “No, he owns the house. I just pay the mortgage.” Just seven years ago, 61 percent of the state’s voters approved a ballot mea- sure that declared, “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid and rec- The fact is that the legislative process, and in fact the American majority, will never ognized in California.” Letters be the source of advocacy for the minority.
