For without victory there is no survival
This was written originally as a comment on one of my previous posts. The writer is my good friend Joseph Arrington, former Vice President of UNCG PRIDE! and, in my honest opinion, a man full of great advice and wisdom.
This has got to be among some of the most beautiful and moving civil rights writings [...]

To the warmongers…
… including GW Bush, Tony Blair, Osama bin Laden, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Saddam, North Vietnam, the Christians, the Jews, the Muslims and others:
Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war, on whose stage of death and pain only remain standing the negotiating table that could and should [...]

The Courage of Youth – Part… I’ve lost count
I’ve talked so much about the “courage of youth” on my blog. Being young myself I can totally relate to high school and college students who are taking a stand to fight for equality and acceptance.

One night, Three big gay parties
I had a great night.
Hit up the Guilford Green Foundation/Adam Foundation’s Triad Takeover Night at Green Valley Grill. I actually managed to find something affordable to eat there (sort of). I had some wonderful bowtie pasta for grand total of about $22.00 (including tip). I highly recommend it. Chatted with a bunch of folks and [...]

Fantasy day – Comer for NC House 2010 Part II
Expanding upon my previous post, Comer for NC House 2010:
I’ve got some good positions I think a lot of people would like. My position and would-be, maybe, if I ever go anywhere in the world, plan to fix some of our problems with our public education system is just awesome, fresh and, quite frankly, I [...]

Is it possible? Would it happen? Does a young, gay guy ever have the chance?
Last night, a good friend and I were talking over AOL Instant Messenger. He is a slightly conservative Republican, although not “conservative” in the sense of radical, right-wing, but more “conservative” as in the sense of the true definition of [...]
