DOMA Protest in Greenville

Today’s DOMA Protest in Greenville was small but full of Equality Power. About 20 LGBT’s and some of their supports showed up today in front of Chili’s on Evan St.

This Event was organized by Angie Williams, Nykole Hotaling and Georgia Winfree all of Greenville. Georgia Winfree is also with the music group Someone’s Sister.

While they held their signs for the passing by traffic to see, they received many looks and many honks from supporters in the local community. However there was a few of favorite words that is used against us yell out and one even gave us the unauthorized hand gesture.

Though this protest was a small it serves to show the local community that we are here and we are not going anywhere and we are no longer going to sit by why our rights are taken away for us.

At this event there were two gay fathers with their children, protesting as a group and as a family.

Children should't be subject to life long medical choices

Very interesting statement, which I'm sure the #transinc community will claim to be Transphobic.. in natural. There is nothing bias ...
