• Equal Rights
    Equal Rights does intrinsically not discriminate -right? except in some cases - wrong! Bigotry is not dead, just head for the nearest Republican and/or Right Wing group (in person, on the internet, at rallies and parades, and yes, friendships!) and discuss a favorite issue - taxes. Because the current law does not allow a legal agreement defining marriage as available option to same sex couples these brothers and sisters, friends and family, are denied, the same economic benefits that are offered to heterosexuals, the current "reigning group" majority. The old mantra of exposure to children, illness, lewdness (sooo old fashioned and out-dated) and against mainstream religion has been taken apart, dissected by every group from social psychiatry to following the pack mentality to ignorance. In this century, in our lifetime, how absurd to deny any sect of people a denial or refusal to love and cohabit and form a family.

  • Tami Fitzgerald: Stop the Hypocrisy: No More Leadership For NC Amendment One
    Tami Fitzgerald is chairwoman of the campaign to put Amendment One into the constitution, which would prohibit North Carolina from viewing same-sex relationships as marriages or civil unions. Her opposition to acknowledging same-sex couples is grounded in the Bible. However, the Bible is much clearer about banning women from teaching or holding authority over men than it is about same-sex relationships. To be consistent in her interpretation of the Bible, we demand that Ms. Fitzgerald immediately resigns and discontinues all leadership and teaching roles.

  • Justice for Dennis Beal
    Canton man gets 60 years for selling cocaine. Dennis Beal (Source: Office of the District Attorney)Dennis Beal (Source: Office of the District Attorney) MADISON COUNTY, MS (WLBT) - A Canton man will spend 60 years in jail, without the possibility of parole, after being found guilty of selling cocaine. Dennis Beal, 37, was found guilty following a two-day trial. Due to previous convictions for robbery, possession of a controlled substance and bribery, Beal was charged as a non-violent habitual offender and a subsequent drug offender, according to District Attorney Michael Guest. On top of the jail sentence Beal will also have to pay a $2 million fine upon his release. In March 2009, Beal met with a confidential law enforcement informant and sold the informant $30 worth of crack cocaine, according to the district attorney. Beal was arrested and while out on bond he reportedly contacted a Madison County Sheriff’s Department deputy and offered the deputy “money to make the charges go away.” The sheriff’s department began to record calls between Beal and the deputy and in February 2010, Beal gave the deputy $5,000 in cash. Law enforcement moved in and arrested Beal on bribery charges.  “Beal’s lack of respect for the criminal justice system can be seen in his attempt to bribe a Deputy Sherriff in an attempt to keep him from going back to prison.  Dennis Beal is an example of a career criminal that will now spend the remainder of his life behind bars because he refuses to obey the law,” Guest said. .

  • National Cab Company in San Francisco needs to take steps to end discrimination
    Please sign the petition to raise awareness and hopefully to create action to add additional protections to taxi drivers in San Francisco. I was harassed, assaulted, and had property damage done to my vehicle as a result of a dispatcher outing me to other cab drivers at National Cab Company in San Francisco. I brought it to the attention of President Dan Hinds at National Cab Company and was told that I am "the problem."
