Anti-gay bullying and school shootings: An ignored epidemic

In almost every tragic, major act of school violence, anti-LGBT harassment, bullying and rejection has been an underlying or contributing cause.
It’s happened again (h/t DailyQueerNews):
A single gunshot fired into the torso of one 15-year-old by another in a crowded hallway at Dillard High School immediately ignited concerns about violence in South Florida’s public schools.
But smoldering [...]

Squandering nature’s knowledge

What happens when you take one of the most powerful, most influential world-wide “governments” with unfettered access to all the accumulated knowledge of Western Civilization and allow them to speak on the environment, nature’s “law,” sexual orientation and gender?

Enjoy your holiday!
For all those finding it hard to get in the [...]

Rick ‘Bearing False Witness’ Warren: What he really said on gays, pedophilia, incest

Jasmyne Cannick: Attack & conquer, Burn the bridges

Jasmyne Cannick wasn’t content blasting the white gays after Prop. 8. The lesbian, African-American blogger and activist, has spoken again.
