This Is What Religious Law Looks Like
Thursday, May 17th, 2012This picture is savagely disgusting, but it proves a point. The point? This is what happens when you pass laws codifying religion – one specific group of people pushing to have laws passed based on their religion. In the above case, it’s Islamic law. But how is this different than groups like National Organization for [...]
Words cannot describe
Wednesday, May 16th, 2012I’m so angry right now, words cannot describe the complete and unequaled hate that I feel. I don’t use that word lightly, either. But it’s the only way that I can describe the group that put this image up: How infuriating is it that these people – and I use that term lightly – [...]
Hannity to Huntsman: Are you SURE you’re anti-gay enough?
Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011I just love this… So yesterday John Huntsman go into the GOP 2012 Presidential race.

She got a photo-op with Darren Criss, [...]

But at the same time? He fathered a child – out of wedlock. Why do I say typical? Because it is. Republicans – be them Schwarzenegger or Gingrich [...]
If the tables were turned…
Wednesday, February 9th, 2011Okay, I totally don’t get this. So in Iowa, where gay marriage is legal (because all seven Iowa Supreme Court justices agreed it was a civil right), the Iowa House is investigating a bill that would allow discrimination against gay people who are married. I understand the basis. If you hold religious beliefs, that’s fine. Everyone [...]
