NYC City: Hate Crime Epidemic.

     I am looking through my Facebook feed and I see something that really bothers me.  Damian Furtch is a  young man living in NYC who was recently blindsided and gay bashed in NYC.  There have been many gay bachings in NYC recently.  One in Williamsburg, one in Woodhaven, and now this perfectly handsome young man, Mr. Furtch.
     He believes that he was attacked because of his attire.  He says that he was wearing "florescent colored clothing and pink shoe laces."  He never saw his attackers coming, but they left their mark.  His injuries were minimal, but the impact was not.  He has 4 stitches and a bevy of bruises.
    I don't really understand homophobia, but I don't get what's so scary.  What are you afraid of?  Are you afraid that we are going to break into your house and judge your color scheme? We don't have an agenda.  We are not here to threaten your way of life.  GAY PEOPLE ARE NO DIFFERENT THAT ANYONE ELSE, just a little more fashionable.


My thoughts and prayers go out to you Damian.

Uganda Be Kidding Me!!!!!!!!

Hello, all of my little whipper snappers!!!!  
While looking through my Facebook news feed I came across something that really blew my mind:
  "The Uganda Anti-homosexual Bill"  

    Now you may be wondering what this is.  Well let me assure you friends that this is not in code.  It is exactly as it sounds.  In Uganda you can be put in Prison for up to 14 years for "homosexual acts."  And no I don't mean homosexual acts like: The local community theatre production of Pippin.  I mean butt sex and poon diving.  However, THAT NOT DRASTIC ENOUGH!!!!
    Apparently you really need to scar the shit out of the gays.  This new bill will up the stakes to life in prison and the death penalty.  Now this isn't just for any homosexual.  This is for super gay, or as they say in Uganda an "aggravated homosexual"  This is defined as a minor, HIV+ person, or a repeat offender.  I guess a repeat offender is a person that woke up gay yesterday, woke up gay today, and will probably wake gay again tomorrow too.
    I must admit I do live the ring of being an "aggravated gay", has a certain ring to it.  It's the new power bottom.  Try putting that on your Adam4Adam and see how far that gets ya.  Check out the video below and see if you are as disgusted with Uganda as I am.  If this bill goes through the gay citizens will be forced to register as homosexuals or they can be fined or jailed.
    Really? Sounds a lot like the registered sex offender database in the USA.  It seems almost like they are trying to create a hit list for people who just want to hurt gay people.  Well you tell me what you think.
