Seven people were arrested Thursday during ongoing protests in Los Angeles and San Francisco against California's passage of a ban on gay marriage.
LAPD Officer Jason Lee said the marchers were mostly peaceful in the demonstration against Proposition 8 that began Wednesday night in West Hollywood and continued into Thursday morning.
Four people were taken into custody at the intersection of Hollywood and Highland when they tried to cross a line of officers.
In San Francisco, hundreds gathered Wednesday night on the steps of City Hall to protest approval of the ban.
Demonstrators held candles and carried signs that read "We All Deserve the Freedom to Marry" as part of the event, sponsored by groups opposed to Proposition 8.
