I have been reading lots of articles on this subject because of the first one that I read was horrifying and I do feel that it needs more public attention.
One of the articles that I read talked about a transgendered male that was sentence to prison and was put in a male prison because there are no laws that recognize transgendered for the sex that they want to be. So when a transgendered person gets put into a male prison they have 3 options.
1. Be who they are and most likely get the shit kicked out of them and raped
2. Cause so many problems with the guards and get put in Confinement (which from most stories that is what they do)
3. Surround your self with a gang, and in exchange for protection they agree to hold contraband, cook, do laundry, clean cells, and lie down and let them have their way with them.
This is a horrific thing that happens in our prison system. Now prison rape is common in most prisons but in the Top 10 prisons where rape and sexual attacks are most rampant, guess where the top 5 are? TEXAS! That's right more sexual crimes are committed in Texas prisons then any where else in the United States. Well this really comes to no surprise to me.
I mean really Texas seems to have its own laws.
Prison rape is more common with LGBT people then straight people, and the authorities who control these prisons said it would cost too much to investigate and solve the epidemic. This is complete bull crap if you ask me. Its not just a rising problem but it is a epidemic. I can't even think that the people who are there to protect and guard the prisoners are allowing this to happen.
Well its not only Wall Street that needs a overhaul. Our prison system seriously needs one too. Its horrible.

Ok, let's all agree that we have known that Ricky Martin was gay the
second he first performed "La Vida Loca"...mmmmkkkkk? I'm not surprised
at his coming out, but I am surprised at the fact that he was offered
$20 million for his life/coming out story. I mean really? I'm sure it
would be an interesting story but in my opinion it is not worth $20
million. Ricky Martin may be an interesting person but i would bet that
if he wasn't a celebrity his coming out story would probably only ...

I have never put a dinning or business review on my blog but I went to a place tonight, and felt very compelled to do so. Link,me, and a friend of ours decided to check out all the hype about the new Incredible Pizza Company in Davenport Iowa.
By the time we picked up our friend and got there it was 7:35, and they closed at 8. Well we could read that just fine on there door sign that posted their hours. We didn't care and we were hungry. When we first walked in we were amazed at the structure...

I was doing some reading on Advocate.com and this story really popped out at me. Headline Arkansas Judge Over Turns Adoption Ban.
The first thing that came to my mind was that this judge over turned something that was harmful to the LGBT Community but I was totally shocked, when I read the ban he overturned would allow LGBT Couples to adopt and foster children in ARKANSAS! Ok I seriously think the world is coming to an end. I mean seriously I would of thought Iowa, or Minnesota would be the f...

I was so shocked to see a post on one of my friends Facebook page. A church that wants all people from all walks of life to hear Jesus true word. Not only are they wanting people to join them, but they are also including gay included ads.
The ads have a lesbian couple being married, and shows a gay male couple with their children. WOW! This church really is taking a step forward and deserves props for this. That ads are aimed at their campaign "God is still speaking" The church is The United ...

Well at one time, this was going to be the one conservative I was going to vote for. I knew he was not a big advocate for gay rights but this last interview totally disgusts me against this Southern wrinkled raisin.
Huckabee in an interview totally slams gay rights saying that we don't fit the ideal. Well neither does porn but your state is one of the largest purchasers of porn!
This was the paragraph that caught my eye from Gaypolitics.com
One-time presidential nominee and former Arkansas Gov...

St. Pius X Parrish in Billings Montanna had a Gay and Lesbian support group for their followers that met once a week, until this group invited a Gay man to speak about his relationship with his gay partner. The church said that by allowing it, it would say that it tolerates gay marriage.
Well of course its catholic and I am surprised that they even allow gays in their church. Read more on the story at the
Advocate by clicking here Continue reading...

As most of you know that Ann Coulter is back in the head lines but this time its not her blasting her loud bigotry ideals but people blasting against her. One University in Canada actually canceled her appearance. What do I have to say about that? Well GOOD FOR THEM! ABOUT DAMN TIME!
Since when do we as Americans defend racism, bigotry, and hate views and call them free speech? Well Ann for many years has said she practices her rights under the 1st Amendment of Free Speech and talks about her...
