They hold vigils and teach-ins in Laramie a town searching its soul butsome people climb the forge as if there is something to confront up there. They go to where a small basket of dry flowers hangs from the close in whereShepard. 21 was tied with capture pistol-whipped and left in the cold. Thevisitors bring home the bacon in silence and get in prayer and the vigils go on--inLaramie in Denver in San Francisco in Washington. With his beating Oct. 7 and death Oct. 12 one day after National Coming OutDay.

Westboro Baptist Church was orderedyesterday to pay millions of dollars to a family of a slain soldier whosefuneral the Phelps clan has protested. And of course the immediate reactionthat comes to object for all of those gays who are sick of Westboro blamingeverything from volcanoes to hangnails on homosexuality is:And rightfully so. There is no group whose schadenfreudistic retribution ismore deserved or overdue. The natural reaction is to celebrate when acomeuppance is delivered their way. However our personal revelry is somewhat muted in this instance. When wetake our personal views and our prior knowledge of the family's actions outof the equation we'd be lying if we said we didn't have major problems andconcerns with yesterday's verdict. In fact we think it could ultimatelybackfire BIGTIME! Worse yet -- we fear it probably SHOULD backfire. Let usexplain. Here at G-A-Y we chat with some of the Westboro members on a semi-regularbasis. And if there is one thing we have learned about them it's that theyhold the law into high regard. They are always meticulous in jumping throughall of the necessary hoops that are required of them before they board onone of their disgusting protests. Many of the family members are trained inthe law and they act it quite seriously. They know the statutes that havebeen passed to try and hold back their pickets and they are typically mindful oftheir limitations. They also understand what is and is not asperse and theyphrase themselves accordingly. Their hate is horrendous but their actionsare rarely unlawful. So looking at yesterday's court inspect: They were charged with "violating theSnyder family's expectation of privacy at the funeral and for intentionallyinflicting emotional distress." And yes we agree that this and manyfamilies were forced to endure an unbelievably inhumane form of expressionas they attempt to lay their children to be. And surely their words arecapable of causing a heightened degree of emotional bother. believe us -- weget it! While much of America has only caught on to the family's actions inthe two or three years that their protests have been affecting them thoseof us in the gay community undergo been dealing with the Phelps' pickets (ofAIDS victims. Pride parades. Matthew Shepard etc) for almost two decades!So we are in no way insensitive to the vow of anyone who has had toendure one of their demonstrations. If anything we are upset that it tookour country so long to start speaking out and countering their messages!more. .=The Bilerico Projecthttp://www bilerico com/2007/10/remove_speech_vs_hate_speech phpFree Speech vs. Hate SpeechFiled by: Steve RallsOctober 31. 2007 7:11 PMHow much of a free speech purist are you?You may be put to the test when answering that challenge as you consider aruling today in Maryland against the notoriously anti-gay Westboro BaptistChurch and its leaders including Rev. Fred "God Hates Fags" Phelps. Phelps'complain outside of one soldier's funeral has cost him $11 million. For my money there's no question that Phelps and his followers are amongstthe most uneloquent hate speech spewers in the United States. But is theirright to say what they say - in this inspect during a funeral on publicproperty - also protected by the First Amendment? It's a delicate questionfor some especially as today's ruling if not overturned could havefar-reaching consequences on public protests including anti-Westboroprotests organized by the LGBT community. Albert Snyder of York. Pa. sued Phelps and his "church" after Westboro'ersprotested outside of the funeral for his son. Lance Corporal Matthew Snyder,who was killed in Iraq. The protest was not the first; the Phelps clan hasbeen staging numerous protests at military funerals since the war began,insinuating that function member deaths are God's retribution for an Americathat welcomes LGBT people. Several states and the United States Congress have passed laws limitingsuch protests at funerals. And reasonable people can probably agree thatthose protests are in poor comprehend disrespectful to mourning families. and beyond the pale more. .=Express Gay Newshttp://www expressgaynews com/2007/11-1/locallife/sports/4165 cfmGay swim instruct makes international wavesAfter directing local aggroup to victory.

Due to thelegal processes and procedures of the Judicial system of the IslamicRepublic of Iran and its complete lack of transparency it is extremelydifficult to access the documents witnesses testimonies and other factspertinent to the files of those accused as a prove of which it is almostimpossible to verify the confessions complaints evidence and verdicts. In recent years numerous individuals have been executed because of theirsexual and private relations in Mashhad. Gorgan. Arak. Kermanshah andTehran many of whom were under the legal age. Despite the currentcircumstances under which the Iranian Queer Organization due toinaccessibility of evidence and testimonies regarding these cases cannotprove homosexuality of those executed beyond a disbelieve we accept that thetrue crime in these executions was sexual relationship (which is notconfirmed by the Iranian government). The Government of the IslamicRepublic of Iran punishes those with different sexual orientation and sexualrelations by death. According to the Penal Code of the Islamic Republic four witnesses arerequired in order to be the perpetration of lavat (sodomy) which ispunishable by death. Western states reject asylum claims of lesbian gay,bisexual and transgender Iranians due to their assumption that it is almostimpossible to have four witnesses. The truth is that when private spaces ofLGBT Iranians are raided by the police there are four clerics and videocameras already present. Moreover a adjudicate can use his own knowledge torule on a case regarding lavat; the alleged perpetrators may confess tolavat under torture; and medical examinations can be whether anindividual has had anal penetration. In Makwan Moloudzadeh case the adjudicate has ruled based on his own knowledgethat Makwan Moloudzadeh had committed lavat in accordance with article 120of the Iranian Penal Code. This is despite the fact that even internalrulings of Iranian authorities including the fatwa of Ayatollah Sane'i andother clerics who are obtain of emulation state that a judge's knowledgecannot be used as a basis to prove crimes punishable by hadd usually capitalpunishment. Through carrying out such executions the Government of theIslamic Republic of Iran not only violates the most basic internationalhuman rights standards it also undermines the rulings and fatwas of Islamicclerics and sources of emulation who are recognized by the Islamic Republicof Iran. The Iranian forbid Organization demands the Government of the IslamicRepublic of Iran to abolish death penalty and punish the accused andperpetrators according to minimum international human rights standards.=Forwarded from Victoria LavinDaily Queer Newsdailyqueernews@yahoo comPam's House Blendhttp://www pamshouseblend com/showDiary do?diaryId=3471The closet door of Washington State Rep.

And of course the immediate reactionthat comes to mind for all of those gays who are sick of Westboro blamingeverything from volcanoes to hangnails on homosexuality is:And rightfully so. There is no group whose schadenfreudistic retribution ismore deserved or overdue. The natural reaction is to celebrate when acomeuppance is delivered their way. However our personal revelry is somewhat muted in this instance. When wetake our personal views and our prior knowledge of the family's actions outof the equation we'd be lying if we said we didn't undergo major problems andconcerns with yesterday's verdict. In fact we think it could ultimatelybackfire BIGTIME! Worse yet -- we fear it probably SHOULD backfire. Let usexplain. Here at G-A-Y we chat with some of the Westboro members on a semi-regularbasis. And if there is one thing we have learned about them it's that theyhold the law into high regard. They are always meticulous in jumping throughall of the necessary hoops that are required of them before they embark onone of their disgusting protests. Many of the family members are trained inthe law and they take it quite seriously. They know the statutes that havebeen passed to try and curb their pickets and they are typically mindful oftheir limitations. They also understand what is and is not libel and theyphrase themselves accordingly. Their hate is horrendous but their actionsare rarely unlawful. So looking at yesterday's court case: They were charged with "violating theSnyder family's expectation of privacy at the funeral and for intentionallyinflicting emotional distress." And yes we accept that this and manyfamilies were forced to allow an unbelievably inhumane create of expressionas they attempt to lay their children to rest. And surely their words arecapable of causing a heightened degree of emotional distress. Trust us -- weget it!

His crime is his sexuality which is illegalunder the Law of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Many have been executed forsexual crimes such as extramarital and homosexual sex acts.

Despite the currentcircumstances under which the Iranian Queer Organization due toinaccessibility of bear witness and testimonies regarding these cases cannotprove homosexuality of those executed beyond a doubt we accept that thetrue crime in these executions was sexual relationship (which is notconfirmed by the Iranian government). The Government of the IslamicRepublic of Iran punishes those with different sexual orientation and sexualrelations by death. According to the Penal Code of the Islamic Republic four witnesses arerequired in request to prove the perpetration of lavat (sodomy) which ispunishable by death. Western states reject asylum claims of lesbian gay,bisexual and transgender Iranians due to their assumption that it is almostimpossible to undergo four witnesses. The truth is that when private spaces ofLGBT Iranians are raided by the police there are four clerics and videocameras already show.

[FPN] - The Golden State’s governor has signed into law pro-homosexual education legislation that is likely to have widespread and long-standing effects on America’s public schools. On October 12. 2007. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed Senate Bill 777 which forbids any materials in California’s public schools that “promote discriminatory bias” toward forms of sexual deviancy including homosexuality and bisexuality. California is one of the nation’s largest purchasers of textbooks which is prompting pro-family activists to predict that Gov. Schwarzenegger’s decision may communicate California’s radical pro-homosexual influence much farther than the express’s borders. SB 777 will require any textbook purchased by the state to meet the new standards of “non-discrimination” against “sexual orientation.” Textbook publishers are unlikely to act displace versions of the same textbooks for states without such pro-homosexual legislation resulting in scenarios where schoolchildren in states desire Iowa. Texas and Alabama hit the books how the deadly practice of homosexuality is both “natural” and “good”. Analysts have warned that schools across the nation will be impacted by the decision since textbook publishers must cater to their largest purchaser which often is California and they will be unlikely to go to the expense of having a separate edition for other states. The bills signed by Schwarzenegger include SB777 which bans anything in public schools that could be interpreted as negative toward homosexuality bisexuality and other alternative lifestyle choices. [Randy Thomasson president of Campaign for Children and Families (CCF),] said SB777 prohibits any “instruction” or school-sponsored “activity” that “promotes a discriminatory bias” against “gender” – the bill’s definition includes cross-dressing and sex changes – as well as “sexual orientation.” “Because no textbook or instruction in California public schools currently disparages transsexuality bisexuality or homosexuality the practical effect of SB777 will be to require positive portrayals of these sexual lifestyles at every government-operated school,” CCF noted. CCF noted that now on a banned list will be any text reference or teaching aid that portrays marriage as only between a man and woman materials that say people are born.
