So many people have fallen victim to the invisible monster that haunts our community. That monster, often referred to as HATE, has murdered, tortured, beaten, beheaded, dismembered, humiliated, and disabled our people for Thousands of years.  A lifelong genocide; one which has been acted out as far back as biblical times.  One that proves to be a reality, still today.

Our generation, like those before it, allow themselves to drown in the images and acts of discrimination, mockery and violence against homosexuality and our very existence. And THAT is the reason our fate has yet to change.

WAKE  THE  FUCK  UP!

Last week, as I gave out flyers to Last Saturdays Rally Against Hate Crime & Violence, I was shocked at the number of high risk, potential victims that didn't care about the issue. One gay couple in the 50's said "Dah'ling, I can't be bothered with that save the whales bullshit". Yet, when I began to tell people that I was handing out free passes to a fashion week after party, THEY WENT LIKE HOTCACKES!!!!!!!! 

That is what we have reduced our people to

I know parties, fashion, music, colors, and spandex are fabulous, but there is a time for everything. DON'T tell me that you can fit all of that, plus time for internet anon hookups into your "oh so busy" schedule, yet you can't pencil in just one hour a week to dedicate towards YOUR right to be on this earth. Don't wait until it's too late…

That's what I did… "Dah'ling"   ... probably why I got beat the fuck up.
