Boycott TARGET / Safe PICS For All Ages / We Support Keith Olbermann

Updates on Keith Olberman @ ObamaBiden2008  (Update: Keith began his FOK NEWS blog.)

Alert: Target + Minnesota Forward + Tom Emmer = Support for a rather dangerous and radical political philosophy that diminishes LGBT people to pests that should be murdered. And "Target" is cool with this?   in San Diego we peacefully demonstrated in front of their stores; In return, TARGET is suing the LGBT community for voicing our right of FREE SPEECH!  Return everything you bought to TARGET and tell them why!  ....Boycott TARGET!!!!!

HHS recommends ways to improve LGBT health

By Julian Pecquet - 04/01/11  / THE HILL
 
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) said Friday that it plans to gather better health data on gay and transgender Americans while giving states guidance on how to help them take advantage of welfare programs and Medicaid.

The recommendations follow an Institute of Medicine report released Thursday that said researchers should better engage lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in health studies because of an existing dearth of health data on those populations. President Obama requested that HHS provide the recommendations when he ordered the department last April to issue regulations that prevent hospitals from denying visitation privileges to gay and lesbian partners.

Friday's recommendations were immediately embraced by advocates.

"Once again, Secretary Sebelius has demonstrated a tremendous commitment to addressing the health needs of LGBT people," Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese said in a statement. "The discrimination and inequality our community faces in healthcare is substantial, and there is so much more that must to be done, but today's recommendations -- alongside the research roadmap provided in the IOM report -- bring us closer to eliminating the barriers that harm the health and well-being of LGBT people and their families."
Take Action:
  • Boycott advertisers of Glenn Beck - Fox News.  Glenn Beck is anti-gay rights.
  • Update: DADT has been repealed. President Obama has kept his promise!
  • Boycott Bill O'Reilly and FOX News and their advertisers.  Bill discussed a French commercial by McDonalds that was meant to show that McDonalds is Gay Friendly. Bill said what is next? Is McDonalds going to be Al-Qaida friendly as well?  Imagine - Bill O'Reilly compares Gays to Al-Qaida!
  • Boycott Arizona the home of  "hater" - U.S. Senator John McCain. Arizona's Hateful anti-Immigration Law - encourages racial profiling and increases hatred towards minorities.  A remedy: Demand Republicans to  support Immigration Reform (The Dream Act). Further, Senator McCain voted against ending DADT and Blocked Immigration reform! 
  • Boycott Target, Best Buy, Gold's Gym - for donating money towards anti-gay political candidates/organizations. Update: (12/26/2010): Target is continuing to donate to anti-gay groups/causes/politicians.  Update 03/08/11 - Lady Gaga Ends Target Partnership, Reportedly Over Target's Poor LGBT Stance. Update 3/25/2010 - Target displays their hypocrisy and Sues California Gay Rights Group for Lobbying Outside Stores.  Target is attempting to block the LGBT right of free speech!  STOP SHOPPING AT TARGET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  • End DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act).  Prevents Federal employees and Gays in the Military from gaining equal benefits. Prevents Gay Partners from gaining equal benefits.    
  • Pass ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act).  ENDA would prevent employment discrimination of  LGBT workforce.
  • Boycott Salvation Army as they will not hire Gays! "DO NOT DONATE TO THEM."
  • BOYCOTT "Chick-fil-a" for donating to anti-gay marriage groups.
  • BOYCOTT KOCH INDUSTRIES PRODUCTS- to include their products: Angel Soft toilet paper / Brawny paper towels / Dixie plates, bowls, napkins & cups / Mardi Gras napkins and towels / Quilted Northern toilet paper / Soft 'n Gentle toilet paper / Sparkle napkins / Vanity fair napkins / Zee napkins / Georgia-Pacific paper products & envelopes / All Georgia-Pacific lumber & building products (INVISTA Products) / Lycra / Stainmaster Carpet.   The billionaire - Koch brothers are ultra republican - tea bag founders/supporters that do not support causes of the LGBT community. 
  • Boycott WALMART - The National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, force criticized Wal-Mart for denying employee benefits to same-s-x partners and for failing to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. By comparison, the group said two other chain stores with a strong presence in New York, Costco and Walgreens, did much better.
  • Remember David Kato, Gay activist - Uganda, who was slain because he is gay!
  • NEW: Boycott Donald Trump, The Apprentice and NBC Network! At CPAC, Trump said he is considering a run for president as a Republican. In a interview with the Des Moines Register, Trump added that he opposes all forms of legal recognition for gay couples, not just marriage. "They should not be able to marry," he said. So why does NBC keep the Apprentice when Donald Trump has stated he may run for president? Boycott NBC! Boycott advertisers of The Apprentice and his other business's. Don't shop at any bulklding with Donald Trump's name!  The Donald has expressed extreme Hatred.  Remember how poorly he treated Rosie O'Donnel?  Now we know why he did that!  It was hate against a lesbian as we now know he is hater.  Unforgiveable!  Ready to dump NBC because they air Donald Trump's "The Apprentice"?  Start Watching CBS Evening News with Katie Couric.
  • NEW: Boycott "APPLE." For the current owners and the aspiring owners of the I-phone,  Apple allows an application, "The Gay App", which is supposed to help gay individuals turn straight.  This is a step in the wrong direction.
    Apple needs to know that the decision to allow this App on their products is a fallacious idea! Update: March 23, 2011:  Apple removed this app from USA stores; but, rumored to have them remain in some foreign stores.  This is offensive not just towards the LGBT community in the USA; but, offensive to  the entire LGBT community around the world.  How does anyone approve such a hateful, despicable app towards the LGBT community? Especially when Gay Teens are killing themselves after being harrassed by their church, parents, as well as  by bully's and teachers at school. The idea that this app was used, solicited is disgusting.

And Now, Our War of the Fittest!

Netherlands Celebrates 10 Years Of Gay Marriage
By On Top Magazine Staff / April 02, 2011

Gay marriage in the Netherlands celebrated its tenth anniversary Friday.

Amsterdam Mayor Eberhard van der Laan marked the occasion with a wedding ceremony, the AFP reported.

In marrying Jan van Breda and his partner Thijs Timmermans at the Museum of History, the mayor told the couple, "Your personal ceremony takes place in a wider context."

"It is exactly 10 years ago today that the first same-sex marriage was celebrated by my predecessor."

Der Laan was referring to the world's first legal gay marriage between Helene Faasen and Anne Marie Thus. The women married in a ceremony officiated by then-mayor Job Cohen after the Netherlands became the first country to legalize gay marriage. Cohen also married three male gay couples during the ceremony.

Such marriages make up about 2 percent of the country's total number of marriages between 2001 and 2010, nearly 15,000 couples, the news agency reported.

Nine other countries have followed the Netherlands' lead, including Belgium, Spain, Canada, South Africa, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Iceland and Argentina. The gay marriages of the autonomous city-state of Mexico City are recognized throughout the country. Five states and the District of Columbia have legalized gay marriage in the United States.

But despite 10 years of gay marriage Vera Bergkamp of the Amsterdam-based gay rights group COC says discrimination persists.

"Some officials still refuse to marry homosexual couples," she told the AFP. "Having the right to get married does not necessarily mean that it is accepted by society. On this level, there is still work to be done."
"Every gay and lesbian person who has been lucky enough to survive the turmoil of growing up is a survivor. Survivors always have an obligation to those who will face the same challenges."
