As you know NOM is coming to Raleigh

Once I learn they were coming I set a Face Book Event to hold a counter-protest. A few individuals basically told me that we as a group didn't have what it takes to hold this protest against a national group.

I canceled my event to only learn later that others have created four events all with different names. How nice.

Anyway there was a face book discussion on this matter, basically it got to point that I had to delete, however the person whom I'm really talking about reply to another post on the matter.

It’s seemed to me that our LGBT community here in NC is for the most part are in the dark following blindly those whom appointed themselves as our leaders, who are support by the rich A ‘list Gays and a few Lesbians. The others who do thinks for themselves and goes against them are blackball and harass for their' beliefs.

So in our collective communities it seems that we must now get permission from this A'list of LGBT, before someone can hold and organize a protest against anti-gay, anti-marriage groups that might and will come to town.

Fired HR admin sues over firing

A former University of Toledo administrator who was fired after writing a column for a local publication is suing the university.

Crystal Dixon, former associate vice president for human resources at UT, filed a complaint Monday in U.S. District Court in Toledo alleging violation of her first and fourteenth amendment rights.

The lawsuit lists UT President Dr. Lloyd Jacobs and William Logie, vice president for human resources and campus safety, as the defendants.

The Thomas More Law Center in Ann Arbor is representing Ms. Dixon.

Ms. Dixon was fired from the university in early May after her April 18 guest column in the Toledo Free Press expressed her opinion that gay rights cannot be compared to civil rights because she could not choose to not be a black woman.

The column was in response to one previously written by editor-in-chief Michael Miller which said Ohio lags in gay rights.

When will this crap end? People getting fired for voicing their opinion and their right to free speech because it what they say is ticking off our community. I canonly hope she wins her case agaisnt the University.

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