The Best TV Shows with LGBT Characters: Shameless promotes, underage sex, pedophilia

Shameless (Showtime)
Gay son Ian (Cameron Monaghan) and grandma Nana (Chloe Webb) are part of the Gallagher clan around which this family dramedy is set. There are four supporting gay or bi characters, including one played by Persian-American actor Pej Vahdat and two black lesbians (portrayed by Carlease Burke and Miss Doty).

Yes this is a great show, where Ian a underage boy slut himself around town having sex.. Where his boss, and older man has sex with him, better where Ian tops his boss.. Which would land any man in jail for 10 to life, for having sex with an underage person..

This is where the fundie get that we want young boys to have sex with, to recruit them. Yet HBO and Advocate and other groups praise them.

I’m so glad that the fundies are making up this stuff..

Shameless promotes, underage sex, pedophilia, grand theft, child abandonment, drug use, check fraud, underage drinking, credit card fraud, possible incest, kidnapping, breaking and entering and the list goes on.

Yet this show praise by our community for its inclusive of the lgbt community. OMG what standards we have these days

Qnotes: Failure

Early December Tariq Taylor went to Food lion in Wendell where his partner worked and open fired on the his partner and a few customer.

WENDELL, N.C.

Police have identified the man who they said opened fire in a Food Lion and shot three people.

Investigators said Tariq Taylor was trying to shoot his boyfriend in Wendell Wednesday night but that he also shot two other Food Lion employees.

Witnesses said one person was shot in the back and is in critical condition.

However this story wasn’t important enough, here are some reason why Qnotes ignore this story,

1. It didn’t happen in Charlotte
2. it didn’t happen in a Gay Bar
3. it wasn’t a str8 on gay  hate crime

So I have to wonder why this wasn’t even mention a blog post on Qnotes.

Here are all the posts written by Qnotes staff on the Bar Stabbing,

Bar: Allegations of wrongdoing after stabbing incident ‘simply not true’

Yet a gay man shot by is partner while at work, where others were shot too, the Current Editor and Staff of Qnotes doesn't thing this deserve any attention. I guess this type of crime is too straight in nature for a gay rag like Qnotes.

Yet if the Gay Food Lion employee was shot by a stranger while shout “faggot” “cocksucker”, and other hateful terms and the local PD did nothing about it. Matt Comer, the Editor of Qnotes would have been all over this story like Michael Cain on a white secretary.

Thanks to Gay Inc. and others a simple act of Vandalism is now a hate crime..

Via Gay INC Mag The Advocate,

The display at Claremont United Methodist Church, located in a college town east of Los Angeles, featured silhouettes of three couples holding hands: one male couple, one female couple, and one male-female couple. Someone knocked over the figures of the gay couples sometime early Christmas morning, TV station KTLA reports.

The vandalism is classified as a hate crime “because of the content of the artwork that was damaged and the fact that it was on a place of worship or at a church,” Claremont police lieutenant Mike Ciszek told the station.

OMFG, what will be next, a simple case of Vandalism where one might get a few month of probation and will get 5 years, All thanks to the Gay Inc. and other sorry ass Gay and Lesbians.

So Gay Inc what can we expect from your sorry ass network in 2012???

Campaign for Southern Equality, is it a NC group or SC group??

If CSE is a NC Group, if so then why are some many of their events in Greenville SC? Yes, a few have happen in their home City of Ashville NC.

This is who they are from, their site.

About

Mission

Based in the South, the Campaign for Southern Equality (CSE) is a national effort to assert the full humanity and equality of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in American life and to increase public support for LGBT rights.

What We Do

CSE is based in Asheville, NC, and will be growing to other Southern communities. Our three-pronged approach involves:

1. coordinated public actions that directly resist discriminatory laws;
2. providing support and crisis response services to LGBT people as they take such action and in times of need; and
3. telling a new story about LGBT lives to the American public, including those who oppose or are conflicted about our rights.

Starting in June 2011, we’ll be hosting monthly Family Dinners in the Asheville area that bring together LGBT folks and allies of all ages to share a home-cooked meal and connect to these actions.

Ethical Basis

CSE’s work is based upon Empathic Resistance, a new ethic which calls for 1) resisting persecuting systems by expressing the authentic self in persecuting environments; and 2) approaching those who oppose your rights with empathy.

Background

CSE emerges from The Progressive Project’s work on political campaigns and on LGBT rights since 2004.

I yet to see them held any type fo action east of Ashville, NC

Thanks for giving them other reason; you, Jurassic circuit ancient party queen.

Back in the Day one of widely know Gay man, made this statement, “I hear to recruit you”. Now that statement is used us almost everyday..

Thanks to Joe out anti-gay counterparts will now some who refer to us as Gay Snipers, who is willing to kill to get what we want..

Thanks a lot Joe, who thinks he a fucking god….

What’s up with that,

the editor, once again proves that if you don’t actually live in Raleigh, and most importantly in Charlotte they simply don’t have the time to care about you/community..

They cover the stabbing of a lesbian in Charlotte bar but couldn’t waste time, ink or cyberspace on the Shooting of a gay food lion employee in Wendell, NC.

Yes, a Gay man partner shot him a another, could been a domestic issue, but Qnotes couldn’t be bother at all..

So you only matter to Qnotes if you live in Charlotte and if you are a lesbian.

I wrote a small piece, yes the writing wasn’t that great, but at least I did write about, Qnotes could be bother, unless it is in the up coming edition.. we will have to wait and see.

The Word Pansies have pissed off one of the many fly by night Volunteer of Equality NC..

The billboard, which boasts an off-the-mark (no pun intended) joke reading "Pansies Converted Daily," has been erected outside Winston-Salem and is already the target (apologies, again) of community outrage.

Writes Kathy Clark of Equality NC: responds: (hard to prove if Kathy works for ENC, since its like a fucking revolving damn door over there. Here today, gone tomorrow.. )

"The Pansies Converted Daily billboard is quite possibly the most offensive advertisement I've ever seen. Congratulations. According to dictionary.com, the slang meaning of the word pansy is a) a male homosexual, b) a weak, effeminate, and often cowardly man." Either way, it is derogatory and designed to intimidate a certain population. Your billboard is an example of institutionalized bullying which incites violence towards homosexuals. Or do you actually have pots of pansies that people shoot, thus converting them to rubble? Please clarify your meaning. If I am incorrect in my assumption, I will promptly apologize and come to your range to destroy flower pots."

let see,

"pansy" is usually used to refer to a wimp not necessarily to a gay person...some straight men are definitely "pansies"

Kathy Clark

Just wanted to let everyone know that the billboard is coming down. My sister contacted the NSSF.org, who had given ProShots a grant to pay for things like advertising. The NSSF was not aware of the existence of this billboard and was genuinely appalled by it. They requested ProShots remove this billboard and ProShots will comply. It may even be down as I type this. The folks at ProShots say they did not intend to offend anyone - that all are welcome at their range - and apologize for doing so.

She bitch about it but is was sister who made the calls, while Kathy bitch and Whine on Facebook..

Tell you gay rights are killing our 1st Amendment rights…

just for you bill

Internship is a system of on-the-job training for white-collar jobs, similar to an apprenticeship. Interns are usually college or university students, but they can also be high school students or post graduate adults seeking skills for a new career. They may also be as young as middle school or in some cases elementary students. Student internships provide opportunities for students to gain experience in their field, determine if they have an interest in a particular career, create a network of contacts, or gain school credit. Internships provide employers with cheap or free labor for (typically) low-level tasks. Some interns find permanent, paid employment with the companies in which they interned. Their value to the company may be increased by the fact that they need little to no training.

An internship may be paid, unpaid or partially paid (in the form of a stipend). Paid internships are most common in the medical, architecture, science, engineering, law, business (especially accounting and finance), technology and advertising fields. Internships in non-profit organizations such as charities and think tanks are often unpaid, volunteer positions. Internships may be part-time or full-time - typically they are part-time during the university year and full-time in the summer. They usually last 6–12 weeks, but can be shorter or longer, depending on the company involved. The act of job shadowing may also constitute interning.

 

United States

Many internships in the United States are career specific. Students often choose internships based on their major at the university/college level. It is not uncommon for former interns to acquire full-time employment at an organization once they have enough necessary experience. The challenging job market has made it essential for college students to gain real world experience prior to graduation. In the US, company internships are at the center of NIGMS funded biotechnology training programs^[18] for science PhD students. One example is the Biotechnology Training Program - University of Virginia.

Not all internships are paid. Nearly all interns working in the United States must be paid, and at least the minimum wage, for their work in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act.^[19] Many internships that are unpaid involve receiving college credit, especially if an internship is correlated with a specific class. The U.S. Department of Labor's Wage and Hour Division allows an employer not to pay a trainee if all of the following are true:^[20]

1. The training, even though it includes actual operation of the facilities of the employer, is similar to what would be given in a vocational school or academic educational instruction;^[20]
2. The training is for the benefit of the trainees;^[20]
3. The trainees do not displace regular employees, but work under their close observation;^[20]
4. The employer that provides the training derives no immediate advantage from the activities of the trainees, and on occasion the employer’s operations may actually be impeded;^[20]
5. The trainees are not necessarily entitled to a job at the conclusion of the training period; and^[20]
6. The employer and the trainees understand that the trainees are not entitled to wages for the time spent in training.^[20]

An exception is allowed for individuals who volunteer their time, freely and without anticipation of compensation for religious, charitable, civic, or humanitarian purposes to non-profit organizations.^[21] An exception is also allowed for work performed for a state or local government agency.^[21]

Some states have their own laws on the subject.^[19] Laws in the state of California, for example, require an employer to pay its interns working in California unless the intern receives college credit for the labor.^[19]

Same Sex Domestic Shooting in Wendell, NC

For reasons unknown as yet, Tariq Taylor went to the Food Lion in Wendell and shot his partner and three others..

Police say the shooter, Tariq James Taylor, 21, was aiming for his partner, Jason Jeffery, 20, who worked at the grocery store at 2837 Wendell Blvd. Jeffrey was shot multiple times and was hospitalized in critical condition.

This is a major tragedy with in our community and the local community of Wendell.

Then Tariq took his own life..

Jeffery called police around noon Wednesday, about six hours before the shooting at the grocery store, and told officers that Taylor had assaulted him and that he was afraid, according to a search warrant. Police advised him to get warrants and a domestic violence protective order.

This is why we need equal protection under the law. If this was a straight couple and Jeffery was the female she would have been able to get an emergency order of protection ASAP.

However my question is why hasn’t Qnote wrote about this tragedy. I can only guess the killing of the lesbian at the bar in Charlotte is more important than this one.. Or the shooting of a gay man far east of Charlotte just doesn’t matter.

Its that Time again: 2012 HRC North Carolina Gala

This February the 25th, HRC will host it 17th Annual Convention and Gala in Charlotte, NC. This Year also mark the end of Joe Solmonese piss poor management reign.

Over the year the LGBT community has make it clear that if you are anti-gay, we won’t support you and will do everything in our power to close you down. The most notable are Chick-fil a, and the Salvation Army just to name a few.

Yet No one is bitching about who is support this gala.

Here are a few of current and past sponsors,

American Express, Audi of America, Inc, Bank of America, BlueCross BlueShield of North Carolina, Compass Group, Duke Energy, Duke Medicine, Food Lion, IBM, Krispy Kreme, Lowe’s, McKinney, Progress Energy, RBC Bank, Sara Lee Corporation, TIAA-CREF, Time Warner Cable, Wachovia – a Wells Fargo Company and Whole Foods.

From the HRC-NC Facebook Page,

Join us for the 17th Annual HRC North Carolina Gala & Silent Auction to be held on Saturday, February 25, 2012 at the Charlotte Convention Center. This annual fundraising event brings together the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and straight ally communities while benefiting the Human Rights Campaign.
Presenting Sponsors:
Bank of America
Time Warner Cable
Wells Fargo

Now these companies may support our community base on sexual expression, but they are working together to destroy many of our freedoms and yet no one cares. Time Warner and many other cable internet companies would love to over turn Net Neutrality, Let not forget what the banks did..

Yet on their redesign site they don’t list of yet local NC companies that are sponsors this Gala, I have to wonder why.

Now I do know that ENC and Qnotes are right up HRC’s Ass.. In there eyes HRC does no wrong.. Hell, lets not forget the year that many Trans-sexuals Advocates boycott and protest HRC’s Gala in Charlotte a few years back, for throwing them under the bus. In hopes to get EDNA passed..

Let not forget that Joe the President of HRC makes over 1/3 of a million dollars a year, and he only flies first class and must have limo service every time he leave DC for one of these Galas or any other HRC Business.

While many of there Gay Orgs Presidents/directors take the cheapest travel ways to save their Orgs money.. but for Joe it First Class only..

Joe Solmonese’s tenure at HRC in this position has been the subject of plenty of criticism by many.

Their Gala costs are completely different depending on location. The three most expensive Galas are DC, New York, and anywhere in CA.. Yet in almost every gala the speaker is a straight supporter. Very rare, are the Speakers them selves gay, and most of the Time like here in NC, the Key Note Speaker is from out of State.

The LA Gala is the kiss the asses of the actor/ess which many of in the close, the NY Gala is for Rich ass bastards and the DC is for Politicians. Rest of the Galas are for those whom can afford to make it; just for the mere chance of meeting someone famous.

So just donate your Gala money to a LGBT orgs that really needs it and actually works for the betterment of the community..

@ProtectNC: Video, doesn’t included the whole community, Why?

A Video was produce at NCSU, title why I’m voting against Amendment 1,in the May elections.. I have no problem with that. This bill need to be defeated, Period.. see tweet,

Most LGBT folks of color will tell you the LGBT rights are LGBT Rich White folks rights, and this Video rams that point across so clearly its not funny.

In the Video there is two white males and four or five white females.. I can only guess the day they made this video only white students were left/on campus at the time..

No trans-sexuals, no other races as well. That right, the maker of this video completely left our the Africa-America people. I hate to tell my follow fags and dykes, that we need our Africa-America brothers and sister to defeat this bill.

Also it would seem that our fight against this Bill will be fought out of Charlotte, NC and they have pick who will be leading this fight, which I’m sure they will not involve Eastern NC till late April if at all.
