Granted it is easy to follow the economic ups and downs and see that it is up during a Democratic Presidency and down during a Republican presidency. It is public knowledge in multiple government reports, but is it really that big of a deal that George Bush Sr. had nearly 16% of the population qualified as in poverty by the end of his stint as our president and Bill Clinton got it back down to 12% during his stint only for George Bush Jr. to in just 4 years put it just under where his dad had dragged it down to? Not really - it happens every time and hasn't really changed so what will be the difference this time? Is &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/01/10/obama.lincoln.memorial/index.html?eref=rss_politics"&gt;Obama&lt;/a&gt; just another Democratic President? Will he simply improve the economy a bit and get us all back to that special place of not having to worry about a job? Perhaps, but I think he will do more than that. This man is real. What I mean by that is not that he will change anything tangible in his Presidential stint but that he will change something deep within us all. This guy cares about freedom. He doesn't agree with many of the immoral things out there in the world but he understands that for us to be free some of those things have to exist. This guy has his own mind and his own ideas and once he makes a decision that is it - no need for protest or vigils against &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rick_Warren"&gt;Rick Warren &lt;/a&gt;- it is done. I have to give him kudos for that and I have to give him kudos for his choice as well. Obama is going through the process picking people here and there and part of his method is to include people from "across the aisle" in his process. So what does he do? He chooses Rick Warren - not a guy that everyone loves because of his stance on homosexuals and so on the surface people get upset. They don't look below the surface at who Rick Warren really is and all the positive that he has done in his life despite this blemish on who he is. I have to admit that I believe Rick Warren to be the type of person who can change and who works at it and I believe that is the reason Obama picked him. Who else does one pick but someone who believes in positive change both for others and within himself and who has some level of integrity within himself to go deeper and rethink his points of view and then go to the masses and present his new point of view in just the way that people from the far right can understand? I think it so unfortunate that we as homosexuals (yes I am one) tend to get angry and protest against people who are not inclusive of us without considering who those people are on a deeper level. First of all it makes us all complete &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;hypocrits&lt;/span&gt; where we on the one hand talk about diversity, inclusiveness and equality and yet on the other we preach against others as if they have nothing to offer. It makes me remember &lt;a href="http://gardenofpraise.com/biblst52.htm"&gt;the story of the talents &lt;/a&gt;(Matthew 25:14-30) in the Christian Bible where the master gives his servants talents to have care over and then comes back to find that one of his servants has hidden the talent away out of fear and anger and not grown his talent like the others. The master takes away his talent and gives it to one of the servants who grew his talents. And the lesson is that if you cannot take care of and nurture what you have then why do you think God would give you more? &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;hmmmm&lt;/span&gt; something to ponder. Why would God, the government, others who are against homosexual equality etc. take you seriously if you cannot even practice what you preach? This does not just apply to Rick Warren but think about it - we as homosexuals are all about hating Rick Warren and what he stands for and then totally ignoring the fact that Prince a man whom we have supported for over 30 years as our musical idol spoke against homosexuality and proposition 8 just a few months ago saying that homosexuals should not have equal rights. But will we be protesting him? I doubt it highly. And that is unfortunate because if all of the homosexuals in the world stopped supporting Prince because he wouldn't do the same for them then he would have about 3 fans left and maybe then he would see what homosexual equality has to offer with regards to his paycheck. So why are we as homosexuals having a problem with the Rick Warren choice or any other that Obama makes. Think about it people - this is the man who for the first time in American history made mention of gay people in his acceptance speech when he was voted in. You matter to this guy even if he is not able to do a damn thing about it. Even if he does nothing we have to know that this guy cares about all of us and that means something. George Bush only cares about himself, Dick Cheney even more about himself - these guys are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;hypocrits&lt;/span&gt; they pretend they are a part of a religion and break its teachings at every turn. Obama has promised that we all matter and then when he includes someone for just that reason those of us who haven't mattered up to this point cry and whine about it and try to pull him down like crabs in a bucket. We will look up one day and realize that we are all still in the same bucket if we don't stop pulling people around us back down. Let them move up and then hold them to the standard of "each one up bring one up". Perhaps if we have an open mind just like we've asked every Republican Conservative in America to do with us and our new President we will grow our talents and be given more. If freedom and equality is really what we as homosexuals care about for ourselves and this country then let us not prevent others from having it just because they are not interested in a Gay America. Because like Obama said... this is not a Black America, a White America, a Latino America this is the United States of America. And I say if you can't handle that then go to NY read the poem at the foot of the Statue of Liberty and if it doesn't touch your heart there is likely a boat there that you can take out of this place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/president" rel="tag"&gt;President&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/economic" rel="tag"&gt;economic&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/democratic" rel="tag"&gt;Democratic&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/republican" rel="tag"&gt;Republican&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/george%20bush" rel="tag"&gt;George Bush&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/poverty" rel="tag"&gt;poverty&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual%20equality" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual equality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/obama" rel="tag"&gt;Obama&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/rick%20warren" rel="tag"&gt;Rick Warren&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-8107367273314664680?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/8107367273314664680/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=8107367273314664680' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8107367273314664680'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8107367273314664680'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-like-this-guy-obama.html' title='I Like This Guy - OBAMA'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-2867749991742724687</id><published>2008-11-29T18:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-11-29T18:11:37.134-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='WTF'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Walmart'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='criticizing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sheep'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='punish'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='holiday'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='America'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='killed'/><title type='text'>3 Killed in Black Friday Mayhem</title><content type='html'>Ok so one guy who was a temp worker at Walmart was trampled by 2000 shoppers in Long Island and another two were killed in a shooting at Toys R Us. &lt;a href="http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2008/11/black_friday_three_dead_so_far.html"&gt;WHAT THE FUCK PEOPLE!!!!! &lt;/a&gt;Think this through. The holiday season is comprised of multiple holidays but I beleive the only one where we give gifts that are not required to be handmade is Christmas. What is the deal people? Is it Christian to trample the hell out of people and shoot them to death? What would Jesus do? I'm thinking he wouldn't trample people to death for an Ipod or a Laptop or shoot someone to death in exchange for a Tickle Me Elmo doll. These people should be ashamed of themselves and both Walmart and the people on video trampling this man with no regard for his life should be prosecuted for murder. Obviously the shooting case will result in prosecution because it is clearly against the law to fire a weapon within city limits without a permit of some sort, but what the hell people!!!??!! You guys pitch little baby fits about calling the Holidays Christmas instead of the Holidays and you go on and on and on about how in your estimation the only reason we celebrate anything during this time of the year is because of Jesus and somehow you forget all of Jesus's teachings by literally and figuratively trampling on others. So now not only have you proven your complete disregard for others by ignoring the religions that came before yours during this Holiday season, but you have proven complete disregard for your own religion by trampling and shooting people to death. This is hand in hand with all of the other issues I have noticed coming from people like this. I mean these are the same people who yammer on and on about the sanctity of marriage and vote against people marrying someone of the same sex while cheating on their spouses, swinging, molesting children and/or letting their children get molested, treating people like crap, treating their children like crap etc. etc. They don't seem to see anything wrong with themselves breaking all the rules as long as no one else gets to. Is this what we would define as privilege? I believe it is. So what it comes down to is that these people vote and live to give privilege to themselves and take it away from others while criticizing others for wanting just a little taste of equality. Welcome to America the land of the not so free and the home of the chicken shit fear mongers who punish those who think for themselves and don't follow along with all the other sheep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/walmart" rel="tag"&gt;Walmart&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sheep" rel="tag"&gt;sheep&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/killed" rel="tag"&gt;killed&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/punish" rel="tag"&gt;punish&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/wtf" rel="tag"&gt;WTF&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/america" rel="tag"&gt;America&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/holiday" rel="tag"&gt;Holiday&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/criticizing" rel="tag"&gt;criticizing&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-2867749991742724687?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/2867749991742724687/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=2867749991742724687' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2867749991742724687'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2867749991742724687'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/11/3-killed-in-black-friday-mayhem.html' title='3 Killed in Black Friday Mayhem'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-8715394371288297361</id><published>2008-11-01T18:24:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2008-11-01T18:26:18.191-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Socialist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Obama'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='McCain/Palin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oppression'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='unregulated'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='together'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='scrutiny'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='benefit'/><title type='text'>Are You White-Heterosexual-Male? If You Answered No to One Then Answer Yes to Obama</title><content type='html'>In email after email from my family and other McCain/Palin supporters they have mentioned Obama and alleged links to terrorists. Over and over again I have linked them proofs to the contrary about Obama being allegedly Socialist/Terrorist. In response I generally get the same thing which is that if he has these friends he has the potential to be just like they are/were at any point in time. But somehow the links that Palin and McCain have are not subject to the same questions and scrutiny. If potential intent and purposeful distancing from links to bad people is a part of the picture for Obama why is it not thesame for Mccain/Palin?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems when the exact same questions come up regarding Palin and McCain I am told by McCain/Palin supporters that intent is not the same as action. I hear all about the subject of intent basically saying that because Palin has not committed actual book burnings, or witch hunts that people are suspecting she would do or support, that it isn't valid to question it. It seems extremely hypocritical to me because they are basically saying that if Obama has potential ill intent and has never acted on it he's a terrorrist and could snap into terrorist mode at any minute, but Palin who though she has never pushed the issues directly, has been linked to many religious extremists and even takes part in a"spiritual warfare" program which has been known to support witch-hunting and other extreme activities and beliefs - should not be questioned because her intent or our guesses at her intent are all of a sudden not an issue.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look people however much we want to pretend or ignore this fact because we are Christians ourselves - Christians have been linked to equally as much terrorism around the world throughout history as Islam has. (before bugging out look it up and see how many countries we Americans alone have hopped over to in order to bomb the shit out of some "heathen" country and look at what was said at that time in history by people on our side and you'll likely find a bunch of stuff about God's will) Our own American history within our own soil shows a lot of death and murder in the name of Christianity and manifest destiny of those who are Christian. It has crossed over our borders and been committed further by us and other countries as well in the name of Christianity and God's will. Yet because we are Christian we think it's God's will, but when we hear someone from Islam saying the same things all of a sudden it's terrorism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The reason I bring this up is because Palin's links are not just to your average small town American Christian - they are instead links to what even many of those average Christians consider an extreme sect of Pentecostals. Does that worry me? Hell yes!!! Because I don't want my freedoms taken from me or someone else based on any religion as I believe my journey with God to be my own and that's it. I don't feel like me being governed by some Christian extremist version of Christianity is any different than women in Islamic countries allegedly being forced to wear burkhas and walk 10 steps behind men they were forced to marry, and then if they are raped on the way to the market or work get killed for associating with a man other than their husband.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Should I wonder whether good Christian people would do such violent and offensive things? Yes. For evidence please refer to the Salem witch hunts, where women who thought for themselves were burned at the stake for going against the orders of doctors, preachers or other men in power, or to our history with American Indians who were violently killed and victims of biological terrorism in the form of smallpox on blankets just for the acquisition of property and because they were not Christian and therefore because they were barbaric pagans they were expendable or non important as human beings. And when you're done with that take a look at slavery and after slavery the Jim Crow laws and the black codes that prevented freedom and condoned lynchings for another 100 years as we all pretended black people were really free even though they couldn't get a paycheck accept once a year (if they were lucky) and they couldn't go anywhere unless it had a sign on it that didn't say whites only.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do I doubt that I could fall victim to this one day because I think for myself, am independent, don't choose or need a man to make me whole, don't use todays medicine and choose instead to use traditional medicine (the same natural medicine that was used by the women burned in Salem by the way), have friends who practice religions other than Christianity, have attended some of their services, have friends from Pakistan, India, China, Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, Israel etc. No I don't doubt it. Only within the last few years have people of middle eastern descent and their friends been imprisoned without access to attourneys and habeas corpus and due process of the law while their homes and families were lost because they could no longer take care of them or work to pay for them. Only 60 or so years ago were Japanese people put into internment camps because they were suspect all of a sudden during WWII. Only about 80 or so years ago did Greek people have barely more rights than black people because legally they were not considered officially white at that time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This history would not make me nervous what so ever if I was like some of you who fit every single category that has protected people in our country from murder, lynchings, unconstitutional means of punishment, torture, imprisonment and persecution for years (ie. white, heterosexual, Christian, believes in marriage etc.). Because I am different I risk being put through any sort of attrocity that someone who is linked to and has hired extreme Christians thinks up in their perfect little Christian heads. It is scary if you don't fit the mold and know America's history (even in the last decade) to imagine you could be next just like it is scary for you white, heterosexual Christians to look at the history of alleged terrorists or extremists linked to Obama and think we could be victim to whatever thing they think up. But apparently according to those McCain/Palin supporters who email me only Obamas potential intent matters and Palin's does not have any need to be questioned. And why is that?... I have one phrase for you - Christian vs. Muslim. hmmm it is clear that extremist Christians are ok in all of their minds, but for some reason we're supposed to be afraid of those who would challenge America on it's horrendous history or challenge Christians on their own terrorist natures. All I can think to do is to make an introduction... Pot meet Kettle you are both black as tar have fun looking at yourselves in the mirror.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been proven that neither of them (Obama/Palin) are guilty of anything but association with these extremists other than the fact that Palin has been caught on tape knodding in agreement with these extremists and both have hired them and Obama has written forwards in their books while Palin has worn their buttons in support of them when they traveled through town etc. (writing forwards in books of people whom you've never met is common practice by the way - I have many published friends who were hired or asked by Barnes and Noble and many other major companies to write forwards and endorsements in and about the books and people whom they have never met- It's kinda like endorsing a guy whose been in the military because you have been there too it's done all the time - or just because he was in the military even if you have never served)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And by the way the same rules go for McCain. I have lists and lists of things (like links to economic terrorists and convicted felons and drug addicted theives) that I have emailed his supporters in email responses. I have researched these things and even though McCain has been friends with these people to the point of using his government positions to do favors for them and making them the godparents of his children when he has been asked about them he has minimized his relationship with them and acted as if they were not close at all. If I was Duke Tully I would have been offended at McCain's comments after he was questioned about my mistakes because it was as if he cared nothing about the guy even though he made him the godparent of his kid at one point in time. So McCain is a guy who will omit someone from his life and pretend he is and was not close to them when the egg hits the pan and things get hot. To me it appears that either he was close friends with these people like has been proven or that he pretended to be friends with them as long as they were of use to him and then dropped them as soon as they became harmful to him or his image instead. Either way it is questionable whether he's just a liar (ie. his denial of close relationships with these people) or a user and a liar (because he pretended to be friends with them so he could benefit from) none of it is good when you look at it without clouded vision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And before you consider saying how Obama's friends and McCain's friends are soooooo different because Obama's are extremist terrorists remember that physical terrorism though it is more talked about and attractive for the masses to look at it is not the only kind of terrorism. There is also economic terrorism which has affected many a country and individual through things like sanctions and harmed just as many and has been enacted in our own country as well against those who could not and would not conform. (hmmm sounds kinda like what McCain supporters would call socialism to me).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Terrorists in general are people who are narcissists and therefore cannot figure out why someone would be so offended or see them as bad because in their minds they are doing the right thing and anyone who disagrees is simply stupid and to hard headed to see that the actions are for their own good. In addition to this mentality they believe that they are so smart that everyone should listen to them and give them privileges and believe what they say and therefore they see nothing wrong with themselves acquiring power for themselves in the form of property, money, and leadership roles. (sound like anyone you know of) This fits both violent forms of terrorists as well as those who acquire their power through the oppression and control of others economically. Palin is too close in link to people whose types have long been known throughout history to commit terrorism against others via religious narcissism, religious terrorism, religious socialism and McCain has been linked to those and even helped those who have committed economic terrorism against Americans and individuals alike. Combine these two and you have a dangerous combination of people who will and have purposefully benefitted financially and with special favors only those who agree with them and/or who believe that Christians are worthy while everyone else is a witch or demon deserving of whatever may come in the war of the spirit via "spiritual warfare."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add this to the list of things that Palin has spoken against with regards to the funding of science and you have a scary picture of what the future could entail on your hands. I agree with people who feel that science should have clear separations of what is fact and what is still being challenged and has not yet been completely proven. I agree with them that there is nothing wrong with creationism being studied and investigated in schools for what it is separate from science/evolution (not instead of) as well to see what is/can be proven as fact. I would add though that we should include ALL creationism theory and not just Christian because science has proven some Pagan, Buddhist, Islamic etc. theories correct just like it has done in Christianity and evolution sciences and if we include ALL of the ingredients perhaps we will have a more true picture instead of one that is just Christian or just Science/evolution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But I am not for someone like Palin who has spoken against the funding of science on multiple occasions - just in the last week or two she spoke against the funding for fruit fly research which has actually advanced us immensely in medical science and has saved us from much of what could and would potentially be done via stem cell research instead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was on a "Friday when at a speech in Pittsburgh, Gov. Palin denounced wasteful expenditure on fruit-fly research, adding for good measure that some of this research took place "in Paris, France" and winding up with a folksy "I kid you not." It was 1933 when Thomas Hunt Morgan won a Nobel Prize for showing that genes are passed on by way of chromosomes. The experimental creature that he employed in the making of this great discovery was the fruit fly. Scientists of various sorts continue to find it a very useful resource, since it can be easily and plentifully "cultured" in a laboratory, has a very short generation time, and displays a great variety of mutation. This makes it useful in studying disease, and since Gov. Palin was in part in Pittsburgh to talk about her signature "issue" of disability and special needs, she might have had some researcher tell her that there is a Drosophila (scientific name for fruit fly)-based center for research into autism at the University of North Carolina. The fruit fly can also be a menace to American agriculture, so any financing of research into its habits and mutations is money well spent. It's especially ridiculous and unfortunate that the governor chose to make such a fool of herself in Pittsburgh, a great city that remade itself after the decline of coal and steel into a center of high-tech medical research.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John McCain has mad repeated use of anti-waste anti-porkbarrel spending ads and elaborated in his speeches about the expenditure of $3 million to study the DNA of grizzly bears in Montana was derided as "unbelievable." As an excellent article in the Feb 8, 2008 Scientific American pointed out, there is no way to enforce the Endangered Species Act without getting some sort of estimate of numbers, and the best way of tracking and tracing the elusive grizzly is by setting up barbed-wire-hair-snagging stations that painlessly take samples from the bears as they lumber by and then running the DNA samples through a laboratory. The cost is almost trivial compared with the importance of understanding this species, and I dare say, the project will yeild results in the measurement of other animal populations as well, but all McCain could do was be flippant and say that he wondered whether it was a "paternity" or a "criminal" issue that the Fish and Wildlife Service was investigating. (perhaps those really are the only things that he associates in his mind with DNA). They are both (McCain/Palin a couple of Philistines with extreme friends who are (dare I say it) linked to terrorist and extreme views that are anti-American in that they are against freedom and progress as well as against the ability of the average American to take care of themselves. (again my mind pops to the similarities to what McCain/Palin supporters call socialism where a government would distribute it's beliefs across the whole of it's people at the expense of freedom and individuality and use those beleifs to limit/control some while others benefit from doing basically nothing to deserve it, but because they fit a small few parameters they benefit). Religious socialists to me seem to be attempting to do two things: 1- create a heaven on earth for those who (according to them) are already following God's law; and 2- force and colonize the rest of the people into following their version of God's law as opposed to allowing people to travel their own spiritual path with God for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not voting for that. I have a relationship with God that THANK GOD is not controlled by the government's idea of Christian Euphoria - it doesn't always go as I wish it would and I learn and grow because of it every day to become closer and closer in my relationship with God which I love, and I feel sorry for those who would be victim of a dogmatic version of a religion that actually prevents them from having that relationship because they are too busy conforming to some earthly human's version of spirituality and euphoria. It's nuts in my opinion and I don't support it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I would say to you if you have made it this far in my post that I hope you don't support it either. I hope that if you are different than those who are traditionally protected in this country you will not vote for those who would continue that oppression of others so that they may be protected. If you are a woman know that in the past and even now women have been oppressed at the hands of people like this sometimes at their own choosing as women like Palin have been known many a day to be more patriarchial and mysogenistic than many of the men in this country I hope you vote Obama. If you are a transexual, lesbian, gay, bisexual, s&amp;amp;m advocate, stripper, prostitute, madam, or don't support marriage or the Christian version of it etc. I hope you understand that there is potentially a stake waiting in the future for you somewhere if you vote for McCain/Palin. If you are not white I hope you have researched American history enough to know that the only people who can commit terrorist acts without being persecuted in this country are white and that as soon as someone non-white does something terroristic you may be put into a concentration camp or internment camp without due process of the law and I hope you vote for Obama. If you practice a religion other than Christianity please remember that you may be victim to the same as those of color and others have been if people like McCain and Palin are permitted to stay in power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I support Obama in part because he is of color and accepting of others of color, because he understands women and is accepting of them even if they are highly successful and not in need of him, because he is supportive of the points of views of others who to many seem extreme even if he doesn't agree with them, because he is willing to listen to people and learn from them despite their backgrounds and points of view, because he understands America's history and it's willingness to take away money from those who have less and give it to those who have more like a twisted backward version of robin hood, because he understands that if I give my money to the guy who already has a bunch and runs the business that I work for that it will not trickle back down to me. Ultimately what I am trying to say is that Obama supports diversity of all and oppression of none at the cost of the others from what I can tell. He says to me we are all in this together instead of we are in it alone or it's us against them. Is this socialist? I don't believe it is, but those who would support the oppression of others and the benefit of themselves would attempt to make you think it is so that they can continue to get away with an unregulated corporate sanctioned oppression of those who work for a living while those at the top doing nothing benefit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/mccain/palin" rel="tag"&gt;McCain/Palin&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/benefit" rel="tag"&gt;benefit&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/obama" rel="tag"&gt;Obama&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/oppression" rel="tag"&gt;oppression&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/socialist" rel="tag"&gt;Socialist&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/unregulated" rel="tag"&gt;unregulated&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/scrutiny" rel="tag"&gt;scrutiny&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/together" rel="tag"&gt;together&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-8715394371288297361?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/8715394371288297361/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=8715394371288297361' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8715394371288297361'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8715394371288297361'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/11/are-you-white-heterosexual-male-if-you.html' title='Are You White-Heterosexual-Male?

That was, of course, until she realized everyone was talking about her svelte figure. Personally, I don't think she is nearly as hot as people are trying to make her out to be, but I have to hand it to her that she is thin without being anorexic and unhealthy in her appearance. She states she has not been to the gym in the last 5 years and that her cardio workout consists mainly of running through the airport trying to catch planes. When you look at her and then you check out Lohan you can see that if it were completely based on looks you would have to wonder how the two got together because Lohan is much advanced when it comes to what (at least in my opinion) is considered hot. Lohan looks in shape and Ronson just simply looks skinny and pastey. I have to say that there is nothing more gross than someone fat and flabby than someone who is skinny and flabby. Of course I can't say much in that regard. If you read my &lt;a href="http://www.angryfatass.blogspot.com/"&gt;Angry Fat Ass &lt;/a&gt;blog you will quickly find that my big ass has a long way to go before even finding a bikini that would fit let alone that I could justify wearing.

Good for her no matter what the truth is about her daughter. More parents should make it a policy to be happy as long as their children are happy. If their child is an adult then they are free to do as they please and it isn't the parent's responsibility any more. Whatever your kid does or doesn't should not be something you love them less for and if it is not physically harmful to them and if it doesn't put them in a potential situation where they may be incarcerated then why the hell should you care about anything else other than their happiness. So if Lindsay and Samantha &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Ronson&lt;/span&gt; are an item then power to them. Let them snuggle at the Cannes festival and let them give kisses to one another. If it is friends then happy day - if it is lovers then that is fine too - and who are we to judge if it is a fling or a permanent thing or whatever?

I can't believe that any doctor would really do &lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,356592,00.html"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt;. I'm all for everyone in the world having freedom, but I have to admit that I have a limited point of view on who should have complete freedom and who should not. I don't think that children should be given complete freedom until they are legally adults. I think that our job as a society is to protect children from neglegence and harm and to give them certain freedoms without first giving them the coping skills and deductive reasoning to deal with such freedoms is irresponsible of us. I also think that there is much to be said about what our bodies go through as we grow and I definitely don't support messing with this process until it is complete. We all know that doing certain things can damage young bodies. In puppies for example if you take them on long jogs when they are just little puppies you chance damaging particular muscle groups etc. that can negatively affect the animal for life. I think it is much the same for human children. I am totally in support of parents supporting their children when they are going through the various stages of gender identity, but I don't support them potentially damaging their bodies. I don't know what else to say but that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/doctor" rel="tag"&gt;doctor&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/freedom" rel="tag"&gt;freedom&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/children" rel="tag"&gt;children&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/adults" rel="tag"&gt;adults&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/society" rel="tag"&gt;society&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/protect" rel="tag"&gt;protect&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/coping+skills" rel="tag"&gt;coping skills&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/deductive+reasoning" rel="tag"&gt;deductive reasoning&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/bodies" rel="tag"&gt;bodies&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gender+identity" rel="tag"&gt;gender identity&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/damage" rel="tag"&gt;damage&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/" rel="tag"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-3079667613587531598?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/3079667613587531598/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=3079667613587531598' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/3079667613587531598'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/3079667613587531598'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/05/dr-treats-children-as-young-as-7-for.html' title='Dr. Treats Children As Young As 7 For Sex Changes'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-6965122814453612974</id><published>2008-05-18T13:08:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-18T13:41:28.183-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religious groups'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Christians'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='limited marriage unions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='decision'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California Supreme Court'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='same sex marriages'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religious freedom'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='oppression'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='laws'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='girlfriend'/><title type='text'>California Supreme Court Overturns Gay Marriage Ban</title><content type='html'>The &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/16/us/16marriage.html?_r=1&amp;amp;adxnnl=1&amp;amp;oref=slogin&amp;amp;adxnnlx=1211130493-HvmuMT1hLWfd2EDqyZSwjQ"&gt;California Supreme Court &lt;/a&gt;ruled Thursday to strike down two laws that had limited marriage unions to those between a man and a woman. The 4-3 decision will make California the second state after Massachusetts to allow same sex marriages. The decision will become effective in 30 days unless the courts grant a stay. Of course it was denounced by the various religious groups who seem to have forgotten that this country's forefathers came here to escape the oppression of the lack religious freedom and freedom in general. Apparently, they believe that our forefathers only wanted white male Christians to have complete freedom in our country. I have to say that I am happy about this decision. I am happy about it not just because I am homosexual and intend to one day marry my current girlfriend, and I am happy about it not just because my current girlfriend and I intend to move to California in the next 2-5 years. I am also happy about it because I believe in complete freedom as long as said freedom does not directly harm another person who is helpless to make decisions for themselves. I feel like people in this world and country do billions of things on a daily basis that I don't agree with on multiple levels, but that is not any reason for me to take away the freedom that they have to do those things. I feel like if someone wants to marry another human being or even multiple human beings and that if all of those people are of sound mind and consent then let them be free to do it. I don't think it is my business to choose for someone else what their life will be like. I don't believe that my view of the world is necessarily the "true" version and even if it is I don't believe I have the right to force that version of the world on others. If no one is being physically abused and everyone is adult and consenting then I figure do as you please. I and many other children on a daily basis are allegedly and proveably damaged emotionally and psychologically by our heterosexual 1 and 2 parent households and their relatives. If we are to protect emotional and psychological well-being of children then we have a lot of people to prosecute as opposed to choosing to persecute only one or two groups of people for what the masses are doing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/California+Supreme+Court" rel="tag"&gt;California Supreme Court&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/laws" rel="tag"&gt;laws&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/limited+marriage+unions" rel="tag"&gt;limited marriage unions&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/same+sex+marriages" rel="tag"&gt;same sex marriages&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/decision" rel="tag"&gt;decision&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/religious+groups" rel="tag"&gt;religious groups&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/oppression" rel="tag"&gt;oppression&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/religious+freedom" rel="tag"&gt;religious freedom&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Christians" rel="tag"&gt;Christians&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/marry" rel="tag"&gt;marry&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/girlfriend" rel="tag"&gt;girlfriend&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/" rel="tag"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6965122814453612974?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6965122814453612974/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6965122814453612974' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6965122814453612974'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6965122814453612974'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/05/california-supreme-court-overturns-gay.html' title='California Supreme Court Overturns Gay Marriage Ban'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-5048845122249345145</id><published>2008-05-18T12:10:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-18T12:36:54.530-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='hypocrits'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sanctity of marriage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heterosexual agenda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='California'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='church festival'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='murder'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='money'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='taxes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wife'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='obsession'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gunman'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='ex wife'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shooting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='strategically funded'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='agenda against gay mariage'/><title type='text'>Another Breeder Helping to Further the Sanctity of Marriage</title><content type='html'>In California, a &lt;a href="http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,356503,00.html"&gt;gunman injures 3 people &lt;/a&gt;including his wife at a church festival of all places. First, the guy is shooting at his ex wife. The fact that she is an ex wife shows this couple's high regard for the sanctity of marriage - yuck I could simply barf. In addition to that this guys complete obsession with his ex wife apparently led him to attempt to murder her. Again, quite the case for the sanctity of marriage. The fact that these things are going on everywhere and everyday yet with barely an organization or group of activists fighting to protect marriage and the family against these types of cases is offensive to me. Especially, when you consider that church money, tax money, immense amounts of money and time go into a specifically and strategically funded agenda against gay marriage in the name of protecting marriage and the family. If these hypocrits really cared about protecting marriage and the family they would be out in droves fighting idiots like this one who shot up a church function because of his obsession with his ex wife.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/California" rel="tag"&gt;California&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gunman" rel="tag"&gt;gunman&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/wife" rel="tag"&gt;wife&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/church+festival" rel="tag"&gt;church festival&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/shooting" rel="tag"&gt;shooting&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ex+wife" rel="tag"&gt;ex wife&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sanctity+of+marriage" rel="tag"&gt;sanctity of marriage&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/obsession" rel="tag"&gt;obsession&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/murder" rel="tag"&gt;murder&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/money" rel="tag"&gt;money&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/taxes" rel="tag"&gt;taxes&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/strategically+funded" rel="tag"&gt;strategically funded&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/agenda+against+gay+marriage" rel="tag"&gt;agenda against gay marriage&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/hypocrits" rel="tag"&gt;hypocrits&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/" rel="tag"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-5048845122249345145?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/5048845122249345145/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=5048845122249345145' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/5048845122249345145'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/5048845122249345145'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/05/another-breeder-helping-to-further.html' title='Another Breeder Helping to Further the Sanctity of Marriage'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-5222753159886602157</id><published>2008-05-07T16:23:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-07T17:40:18.964-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='heterosexual agenda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='screw'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='frustrations'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dumbass'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='gay marriage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marriage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='breeders'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='kids'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='resentment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='equal employment protection'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anti-bullying laws'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='priority'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rights'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='GLBTQ'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='population'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='R. Kelly'/><title type='text'>RE: Ryan's Statement Regarding My Earlier R. Kelly/Sanctity of Marriage Post</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;RYAN SAYS&lt;/span&gt;: "R. Kelly isn't furthering any heterosexual agenda, my friend. In fact, he's doing a good job of messing it up. I understand the resentment from the GLBT community regarding the marriage issue, but you need to step back and realize that R. Kelly has nothing to do with gay marriage rights, equal employment protection or anti-bullying laws. He's simply a dumbass who likes to screw kids. Pointing out the obviousness of his sexuality and preferences serves the gay community no purpose (partly because R. Kelly's not married anymore). Frustrations aside, as much as 95% of the general population are heterosexual and in order to get your agenda recognized as a priority, calling us breeders as derogatory slang and pointing out our flaws will only make you appear radical in the eyes of the middle (who you need to convince). Write about the good. Write about your hopes and aspirations. Don't write non-relevant hate speech and wonder why no one listens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;MY RESPONSE&lt;/span&gt;: First, I'm not crying over here in my post toasties wondering why no one listens. The hate speech comes in moments of frustration and generally those offended by it give some high and mighty speech about how they don't think treating others the way that they have treated you is the way to go inorder to solve an issue. I would agree with them, but at the same time I find it interesting that when the chance to pay back black people comes in the form of affirmative action people all of a sudden have issues with the use of preferential treatment in regards to hiring and promotion in the workplace. I find it interesting that when a heterosexual realizes they are spoken badly of and labeled with derogatory slang terms to describe them that all of a sudden slang terms are a problem, yet they use them on the daily until it affects them directly. People hate tasting their own medicine so I figure if I let them taste it they may see what minority communities have dealt with for years, and perhaps if they have to deal with it even half as much as minorities do they will think twice before doing it or allowing others to do it around them. As far as Mr. Kelly goes you are right in that he furthers no agenda other than his own, but my point is that when heterosexuals protest and vote against measures that would give homosexuals more equal rights they use arguments about protecting the family and the sanctity of marriage when it is clear they really don't care about that or they would be protesting guys like this one instead of ignoring him and/or sending their kids off to his concerts as well as attending themselves and buying his albums. So you see the point was not not to say that Mr. Kelly is helping any agenda against equality, but that he is doing the opposite yet without the same opposition that we as homosexuals receive on a daily basis. With regards to your statement about Mr. Kelly not being married you are right, but the reason for that is because he failed to protect children, family and the sanctity of his own marriage by sleeping with a child. With regards to your claim that 95% of the population is heterosexual I will simply say that you may want to seek out some actual statistics as opposed to guestimates before stating numbers. Census reports are a good place to start though they do not consider the entire population so it is not completely accurate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/R.+Kelly" rel="tag"&gt;R.

A new witness has come forward in the R. Kelly Child Porn case. As if it isn't bad enough that some child's parents let them go to an R. Kelly concert unsupervised and stay out all night without monitoring, R. Kelly picked up the child and took them for a sexcapade which he filmed for his viewing pleasure. Now a woman has come forward claiming to have been involved with a much enjoyed threesome with Kelly and the youngster. Which is worse... The parents, R. Kelly, or the Woman in the threesome? For some reason these are the things heterosexuals do in public and blatantly while all of us pay our taxes toward the fighting of the case against them and yet they somehow think that giving homosexuals the right to marry would not protect the sanctity of marriage and the family. People who think this should be put face to face with what heterosexuals have done for marriage and family and then rethink it. I say you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you really truly want to protect marriage and the family then perhaps you should be more vigilant against ALL of those who discredit your agenda by damaging the image of what you are so politically protecting. Lastly, I want to say to any of you who support this dude by purchasing more of his music that you should be smacked in the back of your head to reset your brain. He is a child molesting porn maker that likely wouldn't support you without being forced to do so. The only good thing about him is that he makes clear the hypocricy of the heterosexual agenda against equality within this nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/r%20kelly" rel="tag"&gt;R Kelly&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sanctity%20of%20marriage" rel="tag"&gt;sanctity of marriage&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/child%20porn" rel="tag"&gt;child porn&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/pleasure" rel="tag"&gt;pleasure&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/parents" rel="tag"&gt;parents&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/heterosexuals" rel="tag"&gt;heterosexuals&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/family" rel="tag"&gt;family&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/protection" rel="tag"&gt;protection&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6515117129813384345?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6515117129813384345/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6515117129813384345' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6515117129813384345'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6515117129813384345'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/05/another-breeder-rkelly-helping-further.html' title='Another Breeder (R.Kelly) Helping Further The Sanctity of Marriage'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-5093333595234934468</id><published>2008-05-03T13:59:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-03T14:11:50.099-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='murder'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='husband'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Darrell Roberson'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='defense'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fort Worth'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='distress'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='rape'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='prison'/><title type='text'>Heterosexuals Protecting the Sanctity of Marriage With Murder</title><content type='html'>In Fort Worth, TX a &lt;a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/CRIME/05/03/texas.slaying.ap/index.html?eref=rss_mostpopular"&gt;woman caused the shooting death of her lover&lt;/a&gt; by text paging him to come over to her place while her husband was out. The husband returned home early to find his scantily clad wife screwing the man in his truck outside their house. The woman's fight or flight responses apparently went haywire when she cried rape and jumped out of the vehicle. Devin LaSalle drove of as quickly as possible but not before Darrell Roberson fired 4 shots into the fleeing vehicle killing LaSalle. At first the police arrested and attempted to convict the husband for the murder of LaSalle until they discovered that he was in fact Denise Roberson's lover and that she had invited him to the premises that night. The husband in an attempt to protect his marriage, family and the woman he loved was committing an act of defense in a moment of extreme emotional distress while the wife on the other hand was simply lying for her own self preservation. What a dumb bitch she must be. I'm sure she will make friends in prison quite quickly as she stands to be convicted for up to 20 years. And for some reason they don't want us to get married cause the sanctity of marriage is compromised. I wonder what heterosexual adultry, whoreishness and murder do to protect such sacred rites of passage?  I'm sure us homos can't make it much worse than it has already been made by all the screwed up breeders in our society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fort%20worth" rel="tag"&gt;Fort Worth&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/husband" rel="tag"&gt;husband&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/rape" rel="tag"&gt;rape&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/darrell%20roberson" rel="tag"&gt;Darrell Roberson&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/murder" rel="tag"&gt;murder&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/defense" rel="tag"&gt;defense&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/distress" rel="tag"&gt;distress&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/prison" rel="tag"&gt;prison&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-5093333595234934468?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/5093333595234934468/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=5093333595234934468' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/5093333595234934468'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/5093333595234934468'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/05/heterosexuals-protecting-sanctity-of.html' title='Heterosexuals Protecting the Sanctity of Marriage With Murder'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-7157930895286073573</id><published>2008-04-30T22:10:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-04-30T22:42:51.258-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='women'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sappho'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lesbian'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wow'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lesbos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fighting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Greece'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='majority'/><title type='text'>Greeks From Isle of Lesbos Sue Gay Rights Group to Defend Lesbian Identity</title><content type='html'>Wow!! Usually when I hear of some &lt;a href="http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080430/NATION/804300449"&gt;crazy news story &lt;/a&gt;I will say something like "only in America", but in this case I am forced to say "only in Greece". Apparently 3 islanders from Lesbos have asked the courts of Greece to draw the line between gay women and the natives of the island. These islanders have taken a gay rights group to court over the use of the word Lesbian. "My sister can't say she is a Lesbian" says Dimitris Lambrou when speaking of the case. He and others are angry because a particular group of women have usurped the word. He says that the word lesbian just began to be used in the last few decades to describe women who love women but I suppose he hasn't bothered to research what he speaks of. The poet Sappho (the muse for the word) was around in 600 B.C. and there is documentation proving the use of the term Lesbian to describe women who love women as far back as the 1800's (more than a few decades). I would say it is a bit too late for fighting the case. I would say that there is likely a statute of limitations on various offenses and because the majority of the world has been using the word for the entire length of my life (33years) and beyond I would say that the statute of limitations has run out on that complaint. What is next? Oklahomans will sue for the use of the term Okie Dokie and receive residual payments from Ned Flanders, People with the last name Murphy will sue for the reference to Murphy's law saying they have nothing to do with the making of the law. Wildlife advocates can sue people who call each other dodo birds. Farmers can sue for the express use of the word JackAss. British cigarette manufacturers can sue for the use of the word fag. The list of lawsuits pending will go on and on if they are allowed to set a precedence. For that matter if anyone who was born in the 1920's is offended they can sue for the use of the term Gay. Oh My!! Perhaps the Greeks should sue the remaining family members of the poet Sappho who was somewhat of an advocate of women loving women and who was responsible for the reference to the word in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/wow" rel="tag"&gt;wow&lt;/a&gt;

Check out &lt;a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/21/sports/hockey/21fans.html"&gt;this NY Times article &lt;/a&gt;about the issue. Kevin Jennings is a Rangers fan who happens to be gay and has at times boycotted the games for allotted time frames because of the often toxic environment. Many gay hockey fans can recall a time when nearly the entire crowd booed when the name of The New York City Gay Hockey Association flashed breifly across the jumbo screen. Directors of the gay hockey league have contacted Rangers General Manager to ask for a fan-education program that denounces anti-gay remarks. A city council speaker later joined them and since then the Rangers have broadcast warnings that they will remove fans who behave offensively. (This is subject to perception I am sure considering that I myself would likely be offended by nearly all of the drunken behavior of a traditional hockey crowd even without any anti-gay comments or behavior). The Rangers turned down the offers for assistance in making public service announcements urging fans to be more respectful though those who offered had a long track record of creating such announcements for MTV and other outlets. This is an interesting story. I nearly didn't post it because I am not a hockey fan myself, but I thought again and decided to post the story simply because I do believe that there is a general need for the world as a whole to be more respectful of others and until we can all say that we are legally equal in America I will be posting such stories. Have fun reading the article in the link above as it goes into much more detail than I ever could.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ho-mo%20larry!" rel="tag"&gt;Ho-Mo Larry&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ny%20times" rel="tag"&gt;NY Times&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/toxic" rel="tag"&gt;toxic&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/new%20york%20city%20gay%20hockey%20association" rel="tag"&gt;New York City Gay Hockey Association&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/rangers" rel="tag"&gt;Rangers&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/offensive" rel="tag"&gt;offensive&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/hockey" rel="tag"&gt;hockey&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/respectful" rel="tag"&gt;respectful&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-7341494336605151405?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/7341494336605151405/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=7341494336605151405' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7341494336605151405'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7341494336605151405'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/hockey-games-at-garden-collide-with-gay.html' title='Hockey Games at the Garden Collide With Gay Patrons Offended by Traditional Anti-Gay Taunts'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-6752706974448779561</id><published>2008-03-16T11:31:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T11:41:26.985-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New York Times'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='college'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Rey'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='transgender'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='recommend'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interesting'/><title type='text'>When Girls Will Be Boys</title><content type='html'>A transgendered F2M goes to school at an all female college.

I can't go on about the article because it is like 7 pages, but it is very interesting and I recommend reading it for yourself by clicking on the link above.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/transgendered" rel="tag"&gt;transgendered&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/new%20york%20times" rel="tag"&gt;New York Times&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/rey" rel="tag"&gt;Rey&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/college" rel="tag"&gt;college&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/interesting" rel="tag"&gt;interesting&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/recommend" rel="tag"&gt;recommend&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6752706974448779561?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6752706974448779561/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6752706974448779561' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6752706974448779561'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6752706974448779561'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/when-girls-will-be-boys.html' title='When Girls Will Be Boys'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-6189820332902288005</id><published>2008-03-16T10:24:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T10:27:55.929-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='equality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Constitution'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='freedom'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 16</title><content type='html'>She says "the homosexual agenda is destroying this nation". What in the hell are people thinking when they say this kind of stuff? This woman thinks there is a "homosexual agenda" that is out to destroy our nation. Perhaps she should consider that the only homosexual agenda is equality. All we want as homosexuals is equal treatment in general. We want the legal protections under the law that everyone is guaranteed according to the Constitution. We as adults should have the freedom to choose who we want to be with as long as they are consenting adults of sound mind. There is nothing wrong with living your own life when it does not affect others in a directly negative way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equality" rel="tag"&gt;equality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/constitution" rel="tag"&gt;Constitution&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/freedom" rel="tag"&gt;freedom&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6189820332902288005?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6189820332902288005/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6189820332902288005' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6189820332902288005'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6189820332902288005'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_5992.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 16'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-2867860425581103932</id><published>2008-03-16T10:16:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T10:22:25.501-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='equal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='legal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bible'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='fail'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='religion'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='practicing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Constitution'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 15</title><content type='html'>She says "not everybody's lifestyle is equal just like not all religions are equal." Ok I'm wondering what she means by this. We are all equal!!! That is the entire founding premise of our nation. That "all men are created equal" what in the world is she thinking? Even in the bible it talks about how we should treat one another and no where in that text does it say to treat anyone as less than. So I can understand her comments regarding all religions being equal but that is wrong as well. She may think that her religion is the top dog of religions which is fine and understandable. I would hate to think that anyone is practicing a religion that they don't think is the best one for them. But no religion is higher than another in this country because we all have something that is also guaranteed us in the Constitution called freedom of religion and separation of church and state though kooks like this woman don't seem to have full grasp of the Constitution. I would bet you my paycheck that if you had a pop quiz on the Constitution from a legal standpoint this woman with fail it big time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equal" rel="tag"&gt;equal&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/bible" rel="tag"&gt;bible&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/religion" rel="tag"&gt;religion&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/practicing" rel="tag"&gt;practicing&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/constitution" rel="tag"&gt;Constitution&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/legal" rel="tag"&gt;legal&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fail" rel="tag"&gt;fail&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-2867860425581103932?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/2867860425581103932/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=2867860425581103932' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2867860425581103932'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2867860425581103932'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_7567.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 15'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-155991707995830361</id><published>2008-03-16T10:06:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T10:13:42.008-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New Testament'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Old Testament'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Leviticus'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='context'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='comprehension'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bible'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='reference'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='laws'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 14</title><content type='html'>She says "I am not anti... I am not gay-bashing... but according to God's word that is not the right kind of lifestyle." Ok obviously this woman can read but she has a bit of a comprehension problem. If you review the bible you will find that the New Testament basically (for lack of a better way of putting it) makes the Old Testament null and void as anything other than a historical document. This means that ALL of the laws of Leviticus and others are no longer valid. If they were then she would be breaking the law by having pierced ears, short hair, shaved legs, eating shrimp, having sex on her period, not washing herself with charred ox bone etc. When people argue about the homosexual lifestyle based on the bible they most frequently quote from Leviticus in the same texts that are right next to the ones they are breaking, and when asked in separate conversations why they are breaking those laws they will tell you that those laws are no longer valid and that you have to take them in context of what was going on at that time historically. Yet, for whatever reason they forget their own words when speaking of homosexuality. Goofballs incapable of comprehension apparently because they cannot figure out that the laws of the old testament do not apply since the new testament came about and they cannot figure out that the old testament that they refer to when arguing against homosexuality is the same old testament where you can reference the laws that they are also breaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt;

The reason is because they face conditions that are likely to increase suicide risks. Imagine if the lifestyle you were involved in was a lifestyle that caused you an increased potential for abandonment of your family, physical abuse and more. The emotional consequences of such a lifestyle would automatically increase suicide risk. People would say that the way to prevent this is to not choose the lifestyle. The statistics of people who deny their sexual orientation and portray themselves as someone they are not are more at risk for suicide than if they are out about who they are. I will never understand why someone would think that anyone would choose a lifestyle that would cause such significant consequences nor will I ever understand why someone would rather that person risk their life further by pretending they are not who they are just to give others peace of mind. It is not my problem if someone else is not comfortable with who I am - that is what therapy is for. If you have a problem with me that causes you such strife then invest in one because I am fine with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/conditions" rel="tag"&gt;conditions&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/emotional" rel="tag"&gt;emotional&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/statistics" rel="tag"&gt;statistics&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/understand" rel="tag"&gt;understand&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/lifestyle" rel="tag"&gt;lifestyle&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/peace%20of%20mind" rel="tag"&gt;peace of mind&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/therapy" rel="tag"&gt;therapy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-462372386537720962?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/462372386537720962/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=462372386537720962' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/462372386537720962'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/462372386537720962'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_9581.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 12'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-2825321033920208903</id><published>2008-03-16T09:47:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T09:52:20.400-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bias'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sexual orientation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='false statistics'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='equality'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kern's Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 11</title><content type='html'>She says "there is more illness [in the homosexual lifestyle]" Illnesses in general do not pick and choose based on sexual orientation and therefore no one group is necessarily immune to any specific disease. When speaking of HIV (which is likely what this woman is referencing when she says "illness") the numbers are higher in Men who have sex with Men and falling a close second are heterosexuals. Women who have sex with women are lower than both of these. I would argue that when ALL homosexuals are included in these statistics one would find that the numbers are much closer between homosexual and heterosexual lifestyles. People like this who have a clear agenda against equality of both religion and sexual orientation purposefully include only Gay Men in their statistics because this helps to further bias their listeners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sexual%20orientation" rel="tag"&gt;sexual orientation&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexuals" rel="tag"&gt;homosexuals&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/statistics" rel="tag"&gt;statistics&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equality" rel="tag"&gt;equality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/bias" rel="tag"&gt;bias&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-2825321033920208903?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/2825321033920208903/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=2825321033920208903' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2825321033920208903'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2825321033920208903'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_9182.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kern&apos;s Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 11'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-467169095760922178</id><published>2008-03-16T09:41:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T09:45:26.159-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Lesbian'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='averages'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='agenda'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='lifespan'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='false statistics'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 10</title><content type='html'>She says "their [homosexuals] lifespans are shorter" She is likely getting this from some biased statistacal report she has read somewhere. The fact is that this is not true. Once again people who have an agenda against equality are known for twisting the statistics by purposely leaving out parts of the homosexual community. This may be a true statistic of people who are HIV positive but it is not true when 'healthy' homosexuals are included in the picture. As a matter of fact it is likely that HIV negative homosexual males live longer than the average straight male which brings the numbers up for homosexuals in general. When considering that the average gay male lives longer than the average straight male and the average lesbian lives about the same amount of time as her straight counterparts then the averages are about the same.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/agenda" rel="tag"&gt;agenda&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/statistics" rel="tag"&gt;statistics&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/lifespan" rel="tag"&gt;lifespan&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/lesbian" rel="tag"&gt;lesbian&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/averages" rel="tag"&gt;averages&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-467169095760922178?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/467169095760922178/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=467169095760922178' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/467169095760922178'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/467169095760922178'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_5618.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 10'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-4540932110371013071</id><published>2008-03-16T09:34:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T09:39:38.647-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='facts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='society'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Greeks and Romans'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='story'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='subservient boy'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 9</title><content type='html'>She says "it's not a lifestyle that is good for this nation... matter of fact studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than.. you know ... a few decades" What the heck study is this? Is there a society that has TOTALLY embraced homosexuality? Greeks and Romans 'embraced' homosexuality for hundreds of years. I would say that is more than 20. Again this woman clearly has a problem with comprehension. She says she taught school but apparently the subject she taught was not history. It is a well known fact that in the Ancient Greek culture it was a common thing for men to have a "subservient boy" as a display of their power among other things. This was a common practice for well over 20 years. So the Greeks who we copied democracy, the olympics, the theater, the arts, philosophy etc. etc. embraced homosexuality. This is just one society I'm sure there are more. This woman is making up her story as she goes along apparently. Either that or she is quoting someone she trusts when she shouldn't because they made it all up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexuality" rel="tag"&gt;homosexuality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/greeks%20and%20romans" rel="tag"&gt;Greeks and Romans&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fact" rel="tag"&gt;fact&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/subservient%20boy" rel="tag"&gt;subservient boy&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/society" rel="tag"&gt;society&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/story" rel="tag"&gt;story&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-4540932110371013071?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/4540932110371013071/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=4540932110371013071' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/4540932110371013071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/4540932110371013071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_851.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 9'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-6757452148805472208</id><published>2008-03-16T09:09:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T09:30:14.936-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='threat'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='safety'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='communist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='failed parents'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='marriage'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='jail'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Islam'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sanctity'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='benefits'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='consenting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='national security'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sex bomb'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Christian terrorist'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Christianity'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='laws'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 8</title><content type='html'>She says "it's the death now of this country...I honestly think it's the biggest threat that our nation has even more so than terrorism...or Islam, which I think is a big threat." So apparently if I sleep with my girlfriend in the privacy of our own home and then expect not to be killed for it by a Christian Terrorist who is fighting for the world to be forced to live by their standards I am threatening society more than a terrorist. I only wish that my sex was so the bomb that it could actually create one. I wonder what her basis for this belief is? The majority of homosexuals are peaceful people who don't harm a flea. The most frequent molestation of children is committed by straight men, the majority of serial killers are straight men, the most frequent amount of killing in current times is committed in mass quantities in the name of Christianity, hate crimes against minorities are most frequently committed by straight white males. So what exactly is the threat? What is so threatening about someone sleeping with a consenting same sex adult of sound mind in the privacy of their own home and then coming out of their home with the expectation of safety? What is so threatening about someone wanting the right to marry who they want or to have health benefits? If this is a threat to our national security then how do we choose which groups are a threat when they get these privileges and which ones are not? In this country we have already had laws on the books banning marriage between blacks and between inter-racial couples until it was deemed unconstitutional (which took years). Let's get over it and either let every consenting adult of sound mind get married to whomever they choose and receive the benefits that are included in that group or let's ban everyone who shouldn't get married. Let's toss people who have broken the sanctitiy of marriage by adultry, wife beating, or divorce into jail. (that includes all those preachers you hear about all of the time) Lets create a system so that before you can marry or breed you must pass an IQ test and if you pass that you must then take a parenting test and take it again and again until you pass before being permitted to marry and breed. Then once we do that we can toss parents in jail who failed to protect their children from harm, to keep them out of jail, to keep them from bullying others, to keep them from shooting up schools, to pass their classes etc. etc. I mean if our laws are made for protecting the sanctity of marriage and family don't you think it only makes sense to heavily punish those who have received health benefits and other benefits under a false promise to abide by such laws?

They want to get our young children into the government schools so they can indoctrinate them." OK NUTTY!!! The only people out their trying to "indoctrinate" and sleep with two year olds are old, perverted, heterosexual, mostly white males. And who are "THEY" because I know that homosexuals surely not the only people who support early childhood education. Is she saying that to support early childhood education is to be homosexual? WOW!! I know that offended straight education advocates everywhere. I hope old homosexual Bush doesn't leave too many children behind. WHOA SALLY!! This is another tactic commonly used by those people who are a part of the agenda against equality. Besides using statistics that have left out large portions of the population they are speaking about, quite often the term "they" is used. They allows you to assume that the they being talked about is the group that is being highlighted when in fact that is not always the case. For instance in this quote where she talks about Why THEY support early childhood education when we know that homosexuals are not the only ones to support this and as a matter of fact are likely the smaller group when counting supporters of early childhood education. It sounds like to me that this woman is interested in creating a weird religious society that is separate from our current one that is based on fear and hate of people that are different than they are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/early%20childhood%20education" rel="tag"&gt;early childhood education&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/indoctrinate" rel="tag"&gt;indoctrinate&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/they" rel="tag"&gt;THEY&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/false%20statistics" rel="tag"&gt;false statistics&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/population" rel="tag"&gt;population&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/support" rel="tag"&gt;support&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fact" rel="tag"&gt;fact&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fear" rel="tag"&gt;fear&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/different" rel="tag"&gt;different&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-2050152102263592983?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/2050152102263592983/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=2050152102263592983' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2050152102263592983'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/2050152102263592983'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_4936.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 7'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-8177397163716310521</id><published>2008-03-16T08:46:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-16T08:54:47.417-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Native Americans'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='facts'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='teaching'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='school'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='history'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Bayard Rustin'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Martin Luther King Jr.'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 6</title><content type='html'>She says "I taught school for close to 20 years, and we're not teaching facts and knowledge anymore" Wow!! When were we ever?!!!!??? I was in school 20 years ago - in Oklahoma as a matter of fact. I don't recall it ever being taught in my history class that someone other than Columbus discovered America which we know is not true. I don't recall it ever being taught in my history books that Columbus landed on our beautiful land and shortly thereafter began raping and pillaging the people who were there. I don't recall a thourough teaching of what Malcom X's points of veiws were beyond a simple paragraph or two depicting him as violent. I dont' recall it ever being mentioned when hearing about Martin Luther King Jrs work and his famous march on Washington speech that the principal organizer and frequent counselor to King regarding passive resistance was Bayard Rustin an openly gay man who King openly supported. I don't recall any depiction of Native Americans in my history class other than that of stupid un-civilized people who were willing to trade their land for trinkets as opposed to a people who fought for years to keep the land that was rightfully theirs that they would much rather have shared peacefully only to be killed, scalped, poisoned, raped, lied to, linched and more.

I can't help but to think that this must have been the same sort of speech one would have heard back during the days when they were trying to pass the "Jim Crow laws" Look at how that turned out. Back after slavery when black men were being voted into political positions equal to white men by the people of those times and societies it was a bit scary and so those who had an agenda against equality fought to prevent it. So from 1876 to 1965 laws existed to prevent equality in our government and therefore our society. After 1965 it took another 42 years for us to finally have a black man run for president and be taken seriously. This is what is happening with gay people now. It is a movement against homosexual equality and the similarities to the civil rights movements of the past involving the African American community are staggering. This is why I will never understand why there is such a lack of support for the gay community by the African American community and vice versa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/city%20council" rel="tag"&gt;city council&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/political" rel="tag"&gt;political&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equality" rel="tag"&gt;equality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/government" rel="tag"&gt;government&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/movement" rel="tag"&gt;movement&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gay" rel="tag"&gt;gay&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/african%20american" rel="tag"&gt;African American&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-445979736785945120?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/445979736785945120/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=445979736785945120' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/445979736785945120'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/445979736785945120'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_16.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 4'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-7910891356959526011</id><published>2008-03-11T22:39:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-11T22:53:17.367-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='contribution'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='normal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='city council'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='taxes'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 3</title><content type='html'>She asks her listeners "whats happening?" when referencing the different areas that have mostly gay city councils. and then goes on to say "And they are winning elections" As if that is a shocking fact. I'm sorry to tell her that homosexuals have contributed a lot more to society than just sexual exploits. Just because I sleep with someone you may not approve of does not mean that I don't pay taxes, vote, have a job, have a family that loves me, have children, have pets, own a home, own a car, go on vacations, play sports etc. etc. a whole hell of a lot of normal stuff. A homosexual can relate to their community just as well as a straight person. No one is exactly the same as another and therefore will not agree with another 100%, but that difference does not define us. I am not defined by who I sleep with - I am defined by my contribution to my family, my society, my country and the human race.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;amp;hl=en"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ&amp;hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/kerns" rel="tag"&gt;Kerns&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/city%20councils" rel="tag"&gt;city councils&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/taxes" rel="tag"&gt;taxes&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/normal" rel="tag"&gt;normal&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/contribution" rel="tag"&gt;contribution&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-7910891356959526011?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/7910891356959526011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=7910891356959526011' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7910891356959526011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7910891356959526011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_3305.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 3'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-7009270732984591572</id><published>2008-03-11T00:13:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-11T00:28:35.549-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gay Straight Alliance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='education'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='parents'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='society'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='child'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='safety'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Oklahoma'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 2</title><content type='html'>She says "one of the things I deal with in our legislature... I tried to introduce a bill last year that would nullify parents..uh...that schools had to notify parents what clubs their children were involved in, and the reason I did that bill primarily was this...we have The Gay Straight Alliance coming into our schools...kids are getting involved in these groups, their lives are being ruined and their parents don't know about it." First let me say that the Gay Straight Alliance is not ruining lives, it is educating people that just because someone is homosexual does not mean that they are bad or that they have nothing other than sex to contribute to society. Second, let me say that if for any reason a child's life is being ruined and the parent doesn't know about it then either the parent is dead, estranged from the child or a complete idiot. I'm sorry but what good parent doesn't keep up with what is going on in their child's life or have concern for their child's general safety and well being?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/BPB7bTdz2xQ" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/oklahoma" rel="tag"&gt;Oklahoma&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/parents" rel="tag"&gt;parents&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gay%20straight%20alliance" rel="tag"&gt;Gay Straight Alliance&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/educating" rel="tag"&gt;educating&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/society" rel="tag"&gt;society&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/child" rel="tag"&gt;child&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/safet" rel="tag"&gt;safety&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-7009270732984591572?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/7009270732984591572/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=7009270732984591572' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7009270732984591572'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7009270732984591572'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/oklahoma-republican-representative_11.html' title='Oklahoma Republican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote 2'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-6027928031098039163</id><published>2008-03-10T23:58:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-03-11T00:07:38.307-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Kerns'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='nation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='deadly'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Homosexuality'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='society'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='embrace'/><title type='text'>Oklahoma Repubican Representative Kerns Homosexual Hate Speech Quote I</title><content type='html'>She compares homosexuals to cancer saying that they cannot be ignored just because they are not directly affecting you.

She says "this stuff [homosexuality] is deadly, and it's spreading and it will destroy our young people.. uh.. it will destroy this nation." Wow homosexuality - something that has been around since the beginning of our lives as humans - something that has been embraced by the most successful and copied societies - is somehow going to spread throughout society and destroy our children and our nation.

I do, however, expect her to understand that there is not a "homosexual agenda" of which she speaks, that the Constitution insures equal treatments under the law, that homosexuality and Islam are not the same thing, that religions are in fact legally equal, that Greeks and Romans embraced homosexuality for hundreds of years, that the lifespan of homosexuals is not so different from that of heterosexuals etc. Basically, before she is permitted to speak she should know what she is saying and not tell lies either purposefully or un-knowingly. She should be voted out of office and not permitted to teach school again. Please email her and write her letters about how you feel.

Most people who have ever seen heterosexual pornography know that the majority of this porn is filmed with people who are using no condoms. Since the 80's the gay porn industry however has used condoms because it was considered taboo not to do so. Recently bareback style gay porn has come back into the limelight as a popular style of pornography. In the last 4 years bareback gay porn has increased to the point where it now makes up about 60% of the gay market. There are now concerns within the gay community regarding the filming of a particular pornography video where British models had sex with each other bareback in various combinations and 4 of the men who took part in the filming were diagnosed as HIV positive soon after. It has become the latest fiasco in the gay porn industry with the U.S. company which released the film refusing to stop production until the NewsNight investigation scared them away from it. The performers in the porno are a bit mortified at the idea that the very moment they contracted HIV is being sold and mass produced serving to simply further whatever trauma they may already be experiencing. Wish these men luck and pray for a better system of protection for these individuals who perform in porn. My heart goes out to those in this unfortunate situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/pornography" rel="tag"&gt;pornography&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/condoms" rel="tag"&gt;condoms&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/bareback" rel="tag"&gt;bareback&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gay%20community" rel="tag"&gt;gay community&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/hiv" rel="tag"&gt;HIV&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/newsnight" rel="tag"&gt;NewsNight&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/mortified" rel="tag"&gt;mortified&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/trauma" rel="tag"&gt;trauma&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/unfortunate" rel="tag"&gt;unfortunate&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-7558836362809192213?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/7558836362809192213/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=7558836362809192213' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7558836362809192213'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/7558836362809192213'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2008/03/hiv-scandal-in-gay-porn-industry.html' title='HIV Scandal In Gay Porn Industry'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-2093746111723235069</id><published>2008-02-22T20:01:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2008-02-22T20:20:01.169-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Phelps'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='quakes'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Orthodox Jewish Shas Party'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BBC News'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Israel'/><title type='text'>Israeli MP Blames Quakes On Gays</title><content type='html'>Check out &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/7255657.stm"&gt;this BBC News story&lt;/a&gt; about how an Israeli MP thinks that the earthquakes that have rocked the holy land recently are the fault of Parliament for their tolerance of gays. Because Israel decriminalized homosexuality in 1988 and has since passed laws that have recognized gay rights some people from the ultra Orthodox Jewish Shas party are protesting stating that it is because of the country's legitimization of sodomy that these quakes and other bad things are happening to Israel.

just as the law recognized those of heterosexual couples. Lawyers for both sides said the ruling applied to all private and public employers in the state. A Canada same sex couple fought the system and won against their employer's refusal to provide proper benefits based on discrimination regarding their sexual orientation.

I hope that one day in this country SOOOOOONNNN we don't have to worry. I as a homosexual do not think my sexuality needs to be a topic of discussion any more than the next person's should be. If I am gay why do we have to sit around and discuss it? We don't sit around discussing the details of people's heterosexuality and the truth is that there is a lot more to each of these groups than what they do in their bedrooms (or on the couch or the kitchen table or in the swimming pool or.....). The thing is that there are heterosexuals all over this country and others who participate in all sorts of odd behaviors sexually. There are straight people into S&amp;amp;M, swinging, bondage and lists and lists of more. None of them are discussed so heavily, so politically and in such a negative light by the mass public as homosexuals. Why is that? Why is it that homosexuals are thrown to the wolves in such a way? Why is it that despite all of the heterosexuals who participate in alternative sexual acts we as homosexuals are the only group who has to endure unequal treatment and removal of rights, work place discrimination, political exploitation and more when none of the other groups do? It's crazy really when you think about it. I believe in all sorts of things some of which millions disagree with but the one thing I do believe in that ranks above and beyond all of my other beliefs and everyone elses is FREEDOM. I fought for it for God's sake and for America's sake and I damn well expect to have it no matter the cost or result. And until one of those fricking wars we fight affords all Americans TRUE AND ACTUAL FREEDOM I will not support the war. Who ever tells you we fight wars for freedom needs to get off their propaganda high horse and show you how we are all free in this country because I don't see it and until I do I will pacify myself with long blog rants and gratuitous videos about what celebrities are gay and are not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object height="355" width="425"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/udVcJSwiWfE&amp;amp;rel=1"&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/udVcJSwiWfE&amp;rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sexual%20orientation" rel="tag"&gt;sexual orientation&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexuality" rel="tag"&gt;homosexuality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/heterosexuality" rel="tag"&gt;heterosexuality&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/bedroom" rel="tag"&gt;bedroom&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/behavior" rel="tag"&gt;behavior&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/political" rel="tag"&gt;political&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/alternative" rel="tag"&gt;alternative&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/exploitation" rel="tag"&gt;exploitation&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6954849406032395798?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6954849406032395798/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6954849406032395798' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6954849406032395798'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6954849406032395798'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2007/12/jodie-foster-discussed-on-cnn-is-she.html' title='Jodie Foster Discussed on CNN &quot;Is She Gay?&quot;'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-8982842052671032316</id><published>2007-12-09T08:18:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-12-09T09:07:09.434-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='political'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='murder music'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='minorities'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='city council'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='violence'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='free speech'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Buju Banton'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='benefit'/><title type='text'>Hate Music Banned in Brighton</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/7128496.stm"&gt;A town in the UK has basically banned what they have loosely termed as "murder music" in their city&lt;/a&gt;. Apparently a &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buju_Banton"&gt;Buju Banton &lt;/a&gt;was playing at a venue in the city and people protested the venue at the city council's licensing committee. The city council is the place where the people of the community can go to with valid complaints against any particular venue in the city so that is what they did. The city is reviewing this "murder music" and how it affects the city and the minorities that the music preaches ill will toward as it relates to things such as inciting riots etc. The goal of the city council is not to prevent free speech but instead it is to protect the people of the community from those who are inciting riots and/or other violence. All of this with good intent which is more than I can say for most cities I've ever lived in. All of the places I've lived haven't had much concern for how things affect any minority until it is related to them in a political "what you will loose vs. what you will gain" sort of way. In America the majority is what counts not the minority and if you are to get something done for a minority you have to show how it will either hurt or benefit (not the majority) but the person/people making the laws.&lt;br /&gt;My point of view on banning what I would call "hate music" as opposed to "murder music" is that the people protesting are not so much worried about what the owner of the venue thinks, or what the city council can or can't do about it - but are instead they are protesting their own fear. Think about it. If you as a group of "targeted" minorities are faced blatantly with the fact that a large group of people is paying upwards of $20 per ticket to attend a concert where a man may sing one or more songs which preach the killing of your kind it would be a bit scary. But when it comes down to it which is scarier that this music is permitted to be sung and sold to the masses or that the masses purchase and listen to it in such a mass quantity. The truth is that if there were not a demand for the music then there wouldn't be a concert in the first place. This says to me that the scarier thing is that a very large group of like minded people who would potentially hate you and plan your ultimate demise are gathering and being permitted to publicly celebrate this thought process and that the scarier thing is not that it is permitted in the first place. First, the truth is that most Christian religions as well as others preach this same thing. How many things in the bible are punishible by death according to the text? Who's to say these people won't unite to make sure that people are punished in such a way? The fact is that these people as a large group have already united to do this to people. That is what politics is these days. These so called Christians vote away the rights of all non-Christians at every opportunity so what is the difference? And if we cannot ban religion when it preaches hate then why would we think we could ban music when it preaches hate? However crazy it seems I am definitely in support of both religious groups and musicians being able to "preach their words" because I think it much more beneficial to have those who hate me exposed as opposed to quietly sitting in their homes planning my demise without my knowledge. If I knew my neighbor was planning my demise I may not be so willing to let him borrow the tools with which to do it by exposing my vulnerabilities to him. However stupid I think hatred and those who display it are, I definitely respect and have less fear of them than those who practice and believe the same hatred without displaying it because they are the one's who will suprise you in the end. So I say let these people be free to preach - sing and say what they want so that they expose themselves therefore protecting those they hate.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/murder%20music" rel="tag"&gt;murder music&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/buju%20banton" rel="tag"&gt;Buju Banton&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/city%20council" rel="tag"&gt;city council&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/minorities" rel="tag"&gt;minorities&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/free%20speech" rel="tag"&gt;free speech&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/violence" rel="tag"&gt;violence&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/political" rel="tag"&gt;political&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/benefit" rel="tag"&gt;benefit&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-8982842052671032316?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/8982842052671032316/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=8982842052671032316' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8982842052671032316'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/8982842052671032316'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2007/12/hate-music-banned-in-brighton.html' title='Hate Music Banned in Brighton'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557949758645604310.post-512611335101259924</id><published>2007-11-18T08:14:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-11-18T08:57:59.852-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vibrators'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sex offender'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='bike'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='T-shirt'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='desperation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='freak'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='privacy'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='public'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vehicle'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='arrested'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sex'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Scotland'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='shock'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='naked'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='pleasure'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='humping'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='love'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='punishment'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='inanimate'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='police'/><title type='text'>Man Arrested for Having Sexual Relations With His Bicycle</title><content type='html'>OK -What is the world coming to? A man in Glasgow, Scotland was caught in the privacy of his hostile room &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/7095134.stm"&gt;with his pants down humping his bicycle&lt;/a&gt;. The cleaning staff knocked on the door and when there was no answer they proceeded to enter the room only to find the man naked from the waste down wearing nothing but a white T-shirt and hunching his bicycle as if to "simulate" sex. The cleaning crew freaked out and called the manager who eventually called the police. Now however odd it may seem I am not surprised by the bicycle incident. Many men love their cars more than their partners (or so I've heard) so what is the difference if they are in love with their 2 wheeled vehicle. Women everywhere have sexual relations with in-animate objects (I think they call them Vibrators), they sell latex butts and latex snatches and even latex "dongs" for the pleasure of people everywhere who choose to have sex and include the use of inanimate objects. No one gets arrested. I know people who have humped their pillows in moments of desperation, or when children are "finding themselves" they hunch their teddy bears only to shock their unsuspecting mothers. Thing is non of these are offenses which I believe should be punishable by arrest or entry onto a sex offender registry for any period of time. There are of course two exceptions to this rule for me: 1 - the bike (or any inanimate object files charges at the police station); 2 - the offense is committed in a public place where the person committing said offense could not possibly have a reasonable expectation of privacy. I'm wondering why in the hell someone would arrest a dude for "doin it" with his bike and put him on a sex offender registry as opposed to just simply gossiping about his weirdness eventually landing him on a social outcast registry. No wonder people are freaking out about homosexuality if they are sooooo busy getting into the business of a man who chooses to have sexual relations with inanimate objects what freedom could there be after that? The Gestapo may be at our homes governing how we make use of our flyswatters making sure they are only used for flys and forcing someone to invent separate swatters for each thing we want to swat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/sex" rel="tag"&gt;sex&lt;/a&gt;

According to &lt;a href="http://www.danah.org/"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Danah&lt;/span&gt; Boyd &lt;/a&gt;The people on &lt;a href="http://www.myspace.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;MySpace&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; are the teens who plan to go into the military immediately after schools, teens who are really into music or in a band are also on &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;MySpace&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;MySpace&lt;/span&gt; has most of the kids who are socially ostracized at school because they are geeks, freaks, or queers. These are her words on &lt;a href="http://www.danah.org/papers/essays/ClassDivisions.html"&gt;a blog where she wrote an essay &lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;viewing&lt;/span&gt; American Class Divisions on the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Internet&lt;/span&gt; by breaking down the difference between the people on &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;MySpace&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Facebook&lt;/span&gt; among other sites. The language she uses is the issue here.&lt;br /&gt;She may have a point that there are definite class divisions among the different socializing sites that we all use across the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Internet&lt;/span&gt;, but it definitely takes away from her point when she uses words like GEEKS - FREAKS - QUEERS - BURNOUTS - ART FAGS - PUNKS - GANGSTAS etc. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;View&lt;/span&gt; her picture and she seems to fit right into the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;MySpace&lt;/span&gt; crowd as she describes it if we go by the immediate appearance stereotypes which she is so willing to use on others. I wonder if this is the type of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;PhD&lt;/span&gt; we want coming out of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Berkeley&lt;/span&gt; or working with Harvard on any project?

This weekend was Gay Pride Weekend and all of you were out in full force with your makeup and nakedness and G-Strings and Speedo's. It was a great time. Some of you made the mistake of picking a fight with the protestors for Jesus and got yourself arrested. On Saturday one of you streaked through the park naked like a maniac and got arrested as well. I hope that you didn't have to sit your naked butt on the seat of the police car or some random chair in booking. That sucks when you consider what may have been on that seat before you. Anyway! good luck out there little homos and look for your pics in the future days-weeks and months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;hr /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/"&gt;Technorati&lt;/a&gt; tags:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Atlanta" rel="tag"&gt;Atlanta&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/cute" rel="tag"&gt;cute&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/drinking" rel="tag"&gt;drinking&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/drunk" rel="tag"&gt;drunk&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/eat" rel="tag"&gt;eat&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/energy" rel="tag"&gt;energy&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Entertainment" rel="tag"&gt;Entertainment&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equal" rel="tag"&gt;equal rights&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/equality" rel="tag"&gt;equality&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Evangelism" rel="tag"&gt;Evangelism&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Events" rel="tag"&gt;Events &lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/fairness" rel="tag"&gt;fairness&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Family" rel="tag"&gt;Family&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Family" rel="tag"&gt;Family Issues&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Gay" rel="tag"&gt;Gay and Lesbian Issues&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gay" rel="tag"&gt;gay marriage&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Gay" rel="tag"&gt;Gay Pride&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Gay" rel="tag"&gt;Gay rights&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gender" rel="tag"&gt;gender issues&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/General" rel="tag"&gt;General&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/HIV" rel="tag"&gt;HIV&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Homophobic" rel="tag"&gt;Homophobic&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/homosexual" rel="tag"&gt;homosexual&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/interesting" rel="tag"&gt;interesting&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Jesus" rel="tag"&gt;Jesus&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Lesbian" rel="tag"&gt;Lesbian news&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/news" rel="tag"&gt;news&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/nudity" rel="tag"&gt;nudity&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/oppression" rel="tag"&gt;oppression&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/photos" rel="tag"&gt;photos&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/pictures" rel="tag"&gt;pictures&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Politics" rel="tag"&gt;Politics&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/protest" rel="tag"&gt;protest&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://technorati.com/tag/United" rel="tag"&gt;United States&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2557949758645604310-6491412451903178888?l=gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/feeds/6491412451903178888/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2557949758645604310&amp;postID=6491412451903178888' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6491412451903178888'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2557949758645604310/posts/default/6491412451903178888'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://gayprideatlanta.blogspot.com/2007/06/hello-all.html' title='Hello All!!!'/><author><name>JennieHowell</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14173714542960922177</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_wwXBhk41cZc/TUy0wIc8uBI/AAAAAAAACXA/3-P8CgqMw3w/s220/me%2Band%2BKenyetta10%2B-%2BCopy.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
