Counter Protest Call for

Let's turn it out and show them there's more than bigotry in NC!

~See you in the streets,

eddy


What: *URGENT!*-*Counter Protest of "Return America"s Anti Gay Rally
When: Tuesday, May 17, 2011 10:00 AM

Where: Halifax Mall
16 W. Jones St., Raleigh, NC, 27601
Raleigh, NC 27601

Why: Return America and the North Carolina Family Poliocy Council, two religiously based anti gay groups, will be rallying for the proposed constitutional amendment to ban same sex marriage in NC. Come out to counter protest.

Return America and the North Carolina Family Policy Council will be rallying in support of the proposed constituional amendment SB106 to ban same sex marriages in NC. Please show your support for equality by counterprotesting. 

From Return Americas website:

"Return America is urging pastors to bring their congregations, schools to bring their students, and citizens to bring as many family members and friends as possible to Raleigh for the 'Marriage Amendment Rally' on May 17. 'We are also asking every individual who believes in traditional Biblical marriage to make May 17th a priority day,' Return America states on its website. 'The future of our children and grandchildren may be determined by the outcome of this Rally.'"

Just so we're clear, these Bible-based groups are asking supporters to bring their children to a rally where they'll preach intolerance against GLBT people while they preach tolerance for their anti-LGBT bigotry. Just imagine if even one of these children is GLBT. What will go through his or her mind when a religious leader is talking about the "homosexual scourge?"

As Return America prepares for its rally outside of the North Carolina legislature in the government complex in Raleigh to push the discriminatory anti-LGBT constitutional amendment, Equality NC will be inside at the NC legislature, making sure these hateful and harmful voices aren't the only ones being heard. Not only have we begun mobilizing clergy, faith leaders, and families from across the state to speak out against the anti-GLBT amendment that day, we're empowering other fair-minded citizens from every corner of North Carolina to add to the thousands of messages, calls, emails, and visits GLBT supporters have already made to their local legislators demanding they oppose this discriminatory legislation. Please stay tuned to the action alerts of Equality N C to make sure you receive information next week on how you can get involved with our act-in against bigotry to let your legislators know that fair-minded folks in their districts oppose this bigoted amendment . . . AND we vote.

See the Return America organization poster below which is also posted on their web site at: http://www.returnamerica.org/

---

Sometime we as a community have to come out to let the people who attempt to sway our political representatives against us that we are here also and we matter and that we are not going to be pushed around any longer by hate and ignorance. Let's come out Tuesday and protest this event in our community. Contact Equality North Carolina to discover times and means of being involved in this. Now is also a good time to discover who your North Carolina Senate and House Representatives are and to contact them to let them know how you feel about the proposal to amend the North Carolina Constitution to codify that it will be illegal for Gay and Lesbian people to marry in North Carolina.

Please show your support with rainbow flags and signs!

The Great Chick-fil-A debate still going on Now in NC

Haas-Jeremy-Hooper-and-Eden-James-This brouhaha began in February when this prissy kept boy, asshole blogger, whom has way too much time on his hands. Whom also has a very unhealthily obsession for Maggie and Brian over at NOM. Who visit their site and blogs every waking moment of the damn day.

He got his tightly whiteys in a knot when a Christian base company have millions to the WinShape Foundation.

The rest of Gay Inc., Bloggers and News outlets are pushing this so hard that it’s not funny. Gay Inc. and its minions won’t rest till Chick-fil-a files goes out of business. That is a main goal of Gay Inc., to get these Christian businesses out of business.

How Gay Inc. has got the colleges in their pockets as well. Gay Inc has now enlisting the LGBT college students in North Carolina to join in on this fight.

Duke University is now in the process of reviewing their relationship with Chick-fil-a, also the students over at NC State is also seeking to oust Chick-fil-a from their campus as well.

Also Gay Inc won’t rest till the freedom of religion is taken out of the 1st amendment.

“Providing food to these events or any event is not an endorsement of the mission, political stance or motives of this or any other organization,” stated Cathy.

Staff_1300535707254.png
Justine Hollingshead, director for N.C. State University’s GLBT Programs and Services, has indicated that there is talk among a variety of student groups on how the university should handle this situation. She feels that students, who have buying power, should have the last word on whether the establishment ought to be given the green light to stay or be asked to exit.
To Gay Inc. the only student who have buying power that matter is those LGBT students. All over Students whom don’t agree with Gay Inc. can take a walk..

SNT: how stupid can one be???

What as happen when you can't express a personal opinion in private.. Then have some A-hole calling your local paper to bitch about you express your view..

This just in from Pam's Houseblend,

"Don't worry, they are not Red Sox fans," the broker reportedly said. "I don't care about that, as long as they are not Jewish," Tynan replied.

That line might - might - have been funny if delivered as schtick by the likes of Jackie Mason, Mel Brooks or Larry David. But Dr. Gold-von Simson, distinctly unamused, complained to her broker and reported the exchange to WNBC-TV.

The Yankees canceled Tynan's scheduled Friday appearance at the American League playoffs.

"I'm not anti-Semitic and I have never been in my life," Tynan protested, calling the incident "something misfortune, I was too stupid with my mouth."
So just who was so offend by that remark, who had to act like a whining complete total Bitch... I think we might have a winner here.

Yes this is the ever lovely Dr..I sure she has heard worst things said by a much better class of people. However I can safely say that she is a attention seeking person. "its all about me, ME ME ME ME, and only me.....

Read more about her here, and here. more here.

Its a sad, sad sad world when adults start acting a bunch of 1st graders telling teacher that they are being pick on...

This is from the NY Daily News,
Here in New York, Irish tenor Ronan Tynan - another guy who strenuously protests his good intentions - is being castigated for cracking an anti-Semitic joke to the wrong person.
Tynan, famous for belting out "God Bless America" at Yankee games, ran into a friend of his, a real estate broker, while he was showing apartments in his building to a pediatrician named Gabrielle Gold-von Simson.
"Don't worry, they are not Red Sox fans," the broker reportedly said.
"I don't care about that, as long as they are not Jewish," Tynan replied.
That line might - might - have been funny if delivered as schtick by the likes of Jackie Mason, Mel Brooks or Larry David.
But Dr. Gold-von Simson, distinctly unamused, complained to her broker and reported the exchange to WNBC-TV.
The Yankees cancelled Tynan's scheduled Friday appearance at the American League playoffs.
"I'm not anti-Semitic and I have never been in my life," Tynan protested, calling the incident "something misfortunate, I was too stupid with my mouth."
Whatever you say, pal.
Tynan's apology for his anti-Jewish joke has been accepted by the doctor he offended, and he has offered to make a donation to the pediatric center where she works.

Now you see why she bitch so loud,,, he apologies and make a donation,,, just like a ***, complete money hogs.... Its all about the money.. wasn't it

My trip to Myrtle Beach

This past weekend I attended another cheer leading event with my sister and her kids, one of whom was in this event. The event was being held at the Myrtle Beach Convention Center right off 21st, st. Very nice place, not as nice as Charlotte Convention Center, but just as big.

This event was a two day event, all teams have to perform once each day. One team only had to perform once, since they were the only team in that group.

While we were there, there was event happening at the center at the same time. Which I had to hold my tongue, you see there was this Christian Thing happening, it was the Shabbach Youth Conference, Yes there were there all these different christian groups under one roof, just enough to make one what to go raging mad, most of these people were very rude to  the cheerleaders that were where for their events.One lady actually told one that cheer leading was the work of the devil. That we would burn in hell for wearing such clothing. Really these bigot just need to stay the fuck home, this lady is lucky she didn't say it my niece, cause if she did, I'm afraid i would have been arrested. I over heard what happen while standing in line to get my two day pass ticket.

One would have thought this group own the place the waay they were acting. See you had to walk their Event Hall to get to the two Events halls for the Cheer Event. The first wasn't too bad it the Sunday Events that was bad. Buses taking up ten to twelve parking spaces, vans and other cars and trucks with u-haul trailers that up two packing space, just because they didn't what park so far away. One Church Van was parked in two spaces at a angle I guess their didn't what to get side swipe, oops to lat for that one, One whole side was torn up from the ground up. I bet anything it was a female driver. I did notice most of these were church who are big time bigots. No matter what Shabbach says on their website, it was mostly baptists and church of god folks.

Shabbach Youth Conference is an interdenominational Pentecostal retreat where young people from all over the East come together for a high impact, spiritual weekend of worship ministry and fun.

We seek to accomplish two goals this weekend:
1. Inspiration

To set an atmosphere and create the environment through praise and worship, drama, and dynamic, anointed preaching of the gospel for a life-changing encounter with God
2. Instruction

To provide workshops and resources for youth pastors and group leaders to gain ideas for furthering their ministry and being able to continue the excitement built in their group while at Shabbach when they return back to the place of their duty

No gimmicks, only pure worship and the manifestation of God's presence and power along with the resources to provide the same atmosphere when you return home.

the only good thing was that they left before our events ended.

After the first day we when out and about the town, returning to the hotel to get ready again to go out.

I love the beach its about the only I miss the most about my hometown, no matter where you were you just minutes away from a beach, not here in Rocky Mount, the nearest beach is about two hours away.

although I went to Myrtle Beach off season, that didn't mean that there was lack of hot guys running around in short shorts mind you. Yes there was not so great weather for the week, but I can only guess they didn't mind the weather at all.

I got some great shots of the waves breaking onto the beach, some of folks having fun on the beach as well.

My niece has an event this summer in Atlanta GA however I won't be going since on this trip she will be going with another team mate, since her mother will be a cruise that week and I will be watching my other niece while my sister is gone.

i also wish my niece team would have won the national level, if they had they would have been able to attend the event that will be held later this year in Miami, Fl I would love to there...

Mormons Soliciting Votes for Prop 8


The funders of Prop h8 get a piece of granny's mind....

I totally agree with Ms Patricia over at the Bilerico Project

A movement is afoot to punish the Mormon Church by getting the IRS to strip them of their tax-exempt status. I agree 110 percent. But why stop at the Mormon Church? Let's see to it that all the "yes on 8" contributors are punished. A friend just sent me the complete list. See below, after the jump. The list is long, and astounding for its diversity -- Mormons, Catholics, Anglicans, Jews, Protestant evangelicals and Pentecostals, you name it. Both churches and nonprofits are on the list. Every single one of these names should be stripped of their tax-exempt status by the IRS. Ditto the contributors in Arizona and Florida, where similar marriage bans were passed.

I completely agree with Ms Patricia, If these churches want to push their religious agenda on everyone then they need to pay taxes.

SNT: Comedian faces prison for joke about Pope and gays

(Rome) Italian stand-up comic Sabina Guzzanti is under investigation for “vilification” of the Pope for telling an audience that Benedict XVI would “go to hell and be pursued by two big, gay and very active devils.”

Pope Benedict is known for his vocal opposition to LGBT rights and same-sex marriage.



What the F?ck! What makes this asshole so damn special. Just because he is the head of the worlds greatest pedophilic group and the worlds biggest closet cases. Please he is a joke

Vilification is the same as defamation: In law, defamation (also called calumny, libel, slander, and vilification) is the communication of a statement that makes a false claim, expressly stated or implied to be factual, that may give an individual, business, product, group, government or nation a negative image. Slander refers to a malicious, false, and defamatory statement or report, while libel refers to any other form of communication such as written words or images. Most jurisdictions allow legal actions, civil and/or criminal, to deter various kinds of defamation and retaliate against groundless criticism. Related to defamation is public disclosure of private facts which arises where one person reveals information which is not of public concern, and the release of which would offend a reasonable person. "Unlike libel or slander, truth is not a defence for invasion of privacy."

False light laws are "intended primarily to protect the plaintiff's mental or emotional well-being." If a publication of information is false, then a tort of defamation might have occurred. If that communication is not technically false but is still misleading then a tort of false light might have occurred.

The Back info on this jerk via Wikipedia: Pope Benedict XVI (Latin: Benedictus PP. XVI; Italian: Benedetto XVI; German: Benedikt XVI; born Joseph Alois Ratzinger on 16 April 1927) is the 265th and reigning Pope, by virtue of his office of Bishop of Rome, the spiritual head of the Roman Catholic Church and, as such, Sovereign of the Vatican City State. He was elected on 19 April 2005 in a papal conclave, celebrated his Papal Inauguration Mass on 24 April 2005, and took possession of his cathedral, the Basilica of St. John Lateran, on 7 May 2005. Pope Benedict XVI has both German and Vatican citizenship. He succeeded Pope John Paul II.

Benedict XVI is a respected Roman Catholic theologian and a prolific bestselling author, a defender of traditional Catholic doctrine and values. He served as a professor at various German universities and was a theological consultant at the Second Vatican Council before becoming Archbishop of Munich and Freising and later a cardinal. At the time of his election as Pope, Benedict had been Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (curial heads lose their positions upon the death of a pope) and was Dean of the College of Cardinals.

During his papacy, Benedict XVI has emphasized what he sees as a need for Europe to return to fundamental Christian values in response to increasing de-Christianisation and secularisation in many developed countries. For this reason, he proclaims relativism's denial of objective truth—and more particularly, the denial of moral truths—as the central problem of the 21st century. He teaches the importance for the Catholic Church and for humanity of contemplating God's salvific love and has reaffirmed the "importance of prayer in the face of the activism and the growing secularism of many Christians engaged in charitable work."

Pope Benedict was also the founder and patron of the Ratzinger Foundation, a charitable organisation which makes money from the sale of books and essays written by the Pope, in order to fund scholarships and bursaries for students across the world.

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 ...
