ACTION ALERT!

Come out and rally for our rights!
On January 10th – NATIONAL DOMA PROTEST
We will get united to fight for our rights, come and join hundreds of cities to protest and give attention to DOMA, make your voice be heard, and let’s make sure Barack Obama follows thru with his promises.
We need to stand up and fight for our rights, and do whatever is on our hands for our community. We came across this very sad story of hate crime against Gay people, and I hope it serves as an eye opener and gives all of you a reason to get out there and stand up if you don’t have enough yet…

“Gay rights advocates note that hate crimes based on sexual orientation have increased nationwide as of late. There were 1,415 such crimes in 2006 and 1,460 in 2007, both times making up about 16 percent of the total, according to the FBI.”

We went to a Family Pride Event last weekend (http://www.southfloridafamilypride.com/) Great event, great families. It was our first time attending a family event like this one and taking our baby, and we were watching to see what his reaction was when he saw there were others kids with two mommies and two daddies, and it caught our attention that he did not pay attention to that, to him, and to many kids that is something superficial, they do not discriminate or judge, wouldn’t it be great if for a day our community had the innocence and acceptance of a child?
It was also great to meet others that feel like us misunderstood and discriminated, but we cannot just talk about it, we have to act upon it, and God said it himself in the Bible, “Become as little children. Humble, teachable and free from selfish ambition, like little children” If children accept and love our community, their two mommies and two daddies, who is anyone to go against us and our rights?

Some say that the solution to the GLBT right inequality would be to stop being so emotional and instead become more rational. That the word wedding is what bothers straight religious people and that we should be satisfied with domestic partnerships.

For those that think this way I say:

The only thing I find irrational is being kicked out of a straight club just because your dancing with your partner, having your foster children being removed from THEIR home because your gay, being left to sit outside a hospital waiting room when your partner in laying in their death bed. Emotional is exactly how we are…we are angry and we are dishearten from the injustice created because of the mentality that gay people can’t really have a serious relationship or have a stable family. ITS RIDICULLOS!

Domestic partnership is a start I agree however it is not the same as marriage. Every state has it own domestic partnership privileges and all are different. None of them are applicable in other states.

Like Ellen said on her show, it’s not the same to say you can sit in the bus you just can’t sit in the front of the bus.

I invite you to go to a local family pride event. The south Florida gay pride event that I went to last week spoke for itself. Both children and parents surrounded by pure love. I am proud and happy to be part of such a wonderful group of people who out of love for their family rights have created this on their own.


Florida get involved with and get united!

I am sick and tired of the injustice and prejudice against the GLBT community.
Is there anyone hearing me? Do you understand? We do not choose to be gay we were born gay, created in the perfect image of God. Why o why would anyone limit my rights because of WHOM I choose to love.

General happiness DOES NOT JUSTIFIE the violation of an individual’s right!
Soon the veil of ignorance will be removed with love and acceptance.
We have to RISE UP and show a greater love, and unconditional love, a love that will elevate this world into a higher consciousness.

STAND UP BE PROUD AND LOUD!

Stand up...

The GLBT Community needs to stand up and show that we are not a minority, that we are a great, and important part of this city, and that as well as its culture, also the economy depends on us. Last Wednesday was “DAY WITHOUT GAY AT WORK”, with the purpose of showing how important we are and that we, the GLBT community hold many important jobs, and as well as they count on us at our jobs, community, families, all we ask for in return is for the community to allow us to have the SAME rights every other citizen has; the right to marry whom we love, to walk down the street holding hands with our partners without been criticized, to not being discriminated on this city we give so much of us to. WE WANT THE RIGHT TO LOVE WHOM WE CHOSE!
