A day without a Gay

So I personally am disgusted with the way the American Government is trying to tell us, Americans who we can love. First it was inter-racial couples were the target & now it's the gay community. I personally am disgusted, so what if they want to be together & get married, more power to them! One female in a relationship can be overbearing & if they want to do it with two of them, you rock it! And who is it bothering, really? Are you hurt by their love? Does something inside you physcially hurt when they express their love for each other by marriage? Who cares! Again, the whole concept of someone wanting to spend the rest of their lives with someone & have all of that put in legal terms, meaning if you're other half fcuks up it's your problem, who cares if they do it?! Let them! But! sorry, the whole point of this blog is to let everyone know of what tomorrow is, December 10th 2008 is in the making of being a nationwide stike & economic boycott. I stole this piece of information from the fabulous Miss Ali James and this is what it has to say
"We are calling for a nationwide strike and economic boycott by all Gays, Lesbian, bisexual, transgender, Intersex, Queer, Questioning, AND OUR STRAIGHT ALLIES on December 10th, 2008, International Human Rights Day.WHY?Because LGBT workers, business owners, consumers and taxpayers contribute over $700 billion to the U.S. economy each year and should not be treated as second class citizens.Because general strikes and economic boycotts are a powerful weapon in the history of non-violent protests.See http://www. pbs. org/now/society/boycott. html.Because marriage should be a Right for all Americans, including gay men and lesbians, regardless of gender, race OR religion.Because until ALL are equal, NONE are equal.HOW?1. Strike: call in gay, shut down your business, take the day off. While this may be a burden, we must be willing to make sacrifices in our fight for equal rights, including the right to marry.2. Boycott: don't buy or spend to show how much the LGBT dollar supports the American economy.3. Volunteer: show the world that our message is about love, not discrimination.See www. daywithoutagay. org .. for a list of volunteer opportunities.4. Communicate: spread the word. We need everyone's support.For more information or to sign up, see the following:Day without a Gay http://www. facebook. com/home. php#/group. php?gid=38177567454 DAYS WITHOUT GAYS ( http://www. facebook. com/event. php?eid=32387329669) ..JOINTHEIMPACT. COM ..DAYWITHOUTAGAY. NET ..GAYS ON STRIKE (also on Facebook)WHY THE NAME "A DAY WITHOUT GAYS"? We were inspired by the film A DAY WITHOUT A MEXICAN and the nationwide strike in 2006 called A DAY WITHOUT IMMIGRANTS, which were attempts by Latinos and other immigrants for equal rights and employment non-discrimination.CALL IN GAY DECEMBER 10th 2008!!!! Calling all queers! We are sending out a call to all "our people" and our allies to rally together and "call out gay." In response to the hateful and disheartening news about proposition 8 in California we are calling all our friends, family, allies, people who voted no, people who believe we should all have the same rights, people who believe that taking away rights is unjust and wrong! CALL IN GAY ON DECEMBER 10 2008.It's a Wednesday, stay home, go to parks, find things free to do in your town, be with your community! CALL IN GAY!!!!!!!"

Now I personally am for equal rights, and if you 'say' you are too then it includes the gay community. So get off your high horse and give less of a sh!t of what goes on behind other peoples' doors & more on your own, because shocker! maybe if the gays were included in our marriage statistics we wouldn't have such a high divorce rate! OH! BURN! That is all for today! Ciao fellow bloggers.

Most staunch anti gay people have a few skellies in their proverbial closet, if you catch my drift.
