Californians Against Hate Launches “Call Terry Caster Campaign”
San Diego’s Biggest Donor to Protect Marriage Being Targeted
SAN DIEGO, CA – Today Californians Against Hate officially kicks off its next awareness campaign in its endeavor to let America know where the money is coming from to take away the recently attained freedom to marry in California .
Terry Caster owns A-1 Self Storage Company of San Diego http://a1storage.com. A-1 Self Storage has 40 locations throughout California with over 4 million square feet of storage. Mr. Caster and his family have contributed nearly $300,000.00 to the Protect Marriage campaign. That makes the Caster family the biggest contributors from San Diego County where 35% of the money came from to qualify Proposition 8 for the November 4th ballot.
“This guy must really not like same-sex marriage,” said Fred Karger, Campaign Manager of Californians Against Hate in his recently published blog in the Huffington Post: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/fred-karger/californians-against-hate_b_114501.html. “Mr. Caster and many of his eight sons and daughters and their spouses have given a combined total of $293,000.00 to the Protect Marriage campaign between January and July of 2008.”
We are very curious as to why Mr. Caster saw fit to contribute so much money to their campaign of fear and hate. So effective today, we are asking our millions of friends and supporters all over the United States to help us by Calling Terry Caster and asking him why he and his family are so strongly against marriage equality.
Call Terry Caster at A-1 Self Storage Toll Free
Corporate Office Number: 800-219-4854 ext. 106
Customer Service Number: 800-210-8979
When you call, please be respectful and courteous to Mr. Caster and his associates.
It is a free country and Terry Caster and his family have every right to contribute as much money as they want to this effort. Lots of people just want to know why.
We have launched a brand new web site with more information on our latest undertaking: www.CallTerryCaster.com.
Californians Against Hate officially kicked off its campaign to identify the major donor funders of Proposition 8 on Friday, July 18, 2008 in San Diego with a lunchtime demonstration and rally against hate. We announced our first action against one of the largest donors to qualify this Amendment, Doug Manchester, CEO of the Manchester Financial Group www.dougmanchester.com.
Mr. Manchester contributed $125,000.00 this year to take away marriage equality in California and owns three hotels. Californians Against Hate called for a boycott of all three of Doug Manchester’s Hotels: www.boycottmanchesterhotels.com. They are the Manchester Grand Hyatt Hotel and the Grand del Mar Resort both in San Diego and the Whitetail Club and Resort in McCall , Idaho .
Californians Against Hate www.californiansagainsthate.com will act as a truth squad during the next 3 ½ months. With this information about where the money came from to support Proposition 8, people can chose whether or not they want to patronize the businesses owned by these major donors.
We believe that the truth should be known about who is funding their campaign of hate.
