A definition of hate:


SFGate Article


It happened to someone, it can definitely happen to me or any one of us. When will it ever be safe for a person to live their life for being who they are and not get hated on?

The comment that makes a very good point:

A 31 year old man led what is alleged to be two teens and another yet to be found forth individual in this hateful crime. To those who believe the anti-gay/lesbian rhetoric in churches do not increase hate crimes, look at this situation. When you make a group of people ‘scapegoats’ 'less than' or 'sinners' it empowers the darker elements of society to do the unthinkable. If you approve of gay/lesbian people or not, you should not fuel the hatred that leads to this kind violence. While the Evangelicals, the Mormons, the Pope or the Archbishop would never condone violence, referring to gay people as the cause of the end of civilization, as the Pope did on 12/23/08, incites hatred. Plain and simple. Is this what Christianity is really about?


And to think living in the Bay is a haven for queers?

Bye 2008, hello 2009!

Happy New Year!

Hope everyone had a fun and safe one this year. I celebrated mine in Virginia this year with just the parents in our new house and the cutest chic on webcam. Yeah, it was pretty chill.

So I welcome 2009 with open arms.
Bring it on!

the economy

Fuck what you heard. We are all broke ESPECIALLY my dumb ass. It really ain't nothing without money. Just waiting for the day when I am stress free.

MILK

"His life changed history. His courage changed lives."

The film is based on the true story of the struggle and achievements of Harvey Milk.

After moving to San Francisco, the middle-aged New Yorker, Harvey Milk, became a Gay Rights activist and city politician. On his third attempt, he was elected to San Francisco's Board of Supervisors in 1977, making him the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in the USA. The following year, both he and the city's mayor, George Moscone, were shot to death by former city supervisor, Dan White, who blamed his former colleagues for denying White's attempt to rescind his resignation from the board [imdb].

This film is TOO GOOD and it's definitely a must see. The cast was perfect and the acting was just amazing. Overall the film did the subject justice and was very visually moving from the way it was filmed.

[James Franco HOTNESS]
Milk was filmed on location in San Francisco. Many of Mr Milk's real-life surviving friends and former associates participated in the making of this film, several appearing on camera.

As I stepped out of the Castro theatre after watching the film, I felt the change that took place at the exact same spot I was standing. This is where history happened and the struggle is not yet over. The film and its message parallels the events that are happening today with the whole Prop 8. During the film, the gays where fighting for their civil rights during the 1970s...decades later we are still fighting for that same right as well as the right to marry. It takes time...it takes time. So as we wait for that time to come...what will you do?
