Check out the Boston Freeper and a GA Legislator Now Anti-Gay Activist
Edited on Wed Feb-11-04 09:05 PM by RationalRose
http://www.boston.com

You have to click the "Photo Gallery" link under the picture on the left. He is in the second slide going through security with the red, white and blue hat on.

I got into a shouting match with the guy when Ashcroft spoke at Faneuil Hall. He also hangs around anti-choice rallies. He is a freakazoid of the highest order.

I was disgusted by the expressions of hate today by the "pro-marriage" factions that they interviewed. A guy that now leads the Coalition for Marriage and Massachusetts Family Institute in Mass., Ronald A. Crews, is a former Georgia legislator.

2. He's off his rocker
and always wears freaky hats and buttons. Must've been a victim of the state hospital shut downs in the late '80s.

3. You Said It Rose!!!!
I was at the State House today. What a great show of support for the gay community! I got into a shouting match of sorts when some freak came up to me and chanting "Hip Hip Hooray for the Sodomites" I was like yeah woo hoo until I realized he was a nut case and really was mocking me. I can be a little nieve at times. In any event, we got him to move. It was amazing the amount of hate spewed form the God fearing Christians in attendance.
I plan on going to the State House again on Thursday. Don't forget cal call and thank you state reps if they voted NO today!!!

4. Mine did-Tim Toomey and Jarrett Barrios (who's gay)
Edited on Wed Feb-11-04 09:20 PM by RationalRose
I was going to stroll down to the State House, but I figured all the freeptards would put me in a bad mood. I may go tomorrow.

A lot of these pro-family, anti-gay leaders in Mass. like Ron Crews have been imported by the Republican party to raise hell in my fair state. Why would a GA extreme right legislator move to the most liberal state in the country?

9. I Am Going to the State House.....
for sure! I was going to call Sen. Brian Joyce and Rep. Walter Timilty but I think I will go in person! Look for a great op-ed piece in the Globe for Brian Joyce in the next few days. I saw it in his office yesterday. Ron Crews can move back to Georgia! Have looked at his organizations web site? What a true bunch of sick freaks.

12. I think those organizations are truly evil
They appeal to the fundie blow-ins from other states who are freaked out by Mass., and the more right-wing Catholics.

How did Timilty and Joyce vote? They are from Milton/Randolph, right?

8. Well, it's tempting, but stuff like that right before bed get me wound up
and I can't sleep.

I think I'll just turn on the electric blanket and stick in Blackadder Two!

11. He yelled at jonnyblitz at the Ashcroft thing
saying he wasn't a veteran (jonny is) and all kinds of nice words. I'm amazed someone hasn't kicked his ass yet.

17. Did you see the comment under the main picture of a woman pray
At the State House, same-sex marriage opponent Donna Stevens prayed today that the legislature will ban same-sex marriage and that both sides will stop screaming at each other. (Globe Photo / John Tlumacki) Photos

HERE'S A FREAKING CONCEPT YOU DAMN FUNDIE FOOL



Maybe if you stop sticking your nose into other folks business and let GBLTs have the same rights as straight folks there WOULD be no screaming at each other.

D'UH!!!

19. The pictures were disgusting-children learning to exclude and hate
Edited on Wed Feb-11-04 10:06 PM by RationalRose
I can't believe a little kid was holding up a sign "God Created Adam & Eve Not Adam & Steve". His parents should be arrested for child abuse. Shouldn't he be in school????

20. Thank you, Martin
I may have to go to the State House tomorrow and yell nasty crap at the fundies. I haven't been confronted with that level of ignorance in a long time.
