SALT LAKE CITY - Supporters of same-sex marriage in Utah are condemning opponents they accuse of exploiting the children of same-sex couples by using their photos as propaganda at an anti-gay marriage rally.??

Utah Celebration of Marriage projected the images on a screen at a rally held Thursday in the Capitol Rotunda to show support for what the group describes as "traditional families."??

Conservative activist Mary Summerhays showed photos of two men holding their son and two women with their baby daughter and told the crowd the children "will pay the price of redefining marriage."??

Marina Gomberg, interim direct of Equality Utah, said Friday it was a "disgrace" to go after loving parents and their children to further the anti-equality agenda.
