SAN FRANCISCO — A proponent of California’s same-sex marriage ban warned voters during the 2008 campaign that gay rights activists would try to legalize sex with children if same-sex couples had the right to wed, according to evidence presented Wednesday in a lawsuit seeking to overturn the measure.
The taped statements were made by San Francisco resident Hak-Shing William Tam, a defendant in the federal case.
