Gay Pride.

June is Gay and Lesbian Pride time and as Americans, gay or straight, we all tend to take that freedom to for granted. This past weekend a handful of gay and lesbian Russians planned to have their first ever gay pride parade through Moscow to commemorate the 13th anniversary of the decriminalization of homosexuality in Russian in 1993, but days before they planned to march, the city had denied their request. An opinion poll showed 43% of Russians believe gay men should be incarcerated. Chief Mufti Talgat Tadzhuddin, a Russian Muslim leader stated that "If they come out on to the streets anyway they should be flogged," he said. "Any normal person would do that -- Muslims and Orthodox Christians alike [The protests] might be even more intense than protests abroad against those controversial cartoons." Shortly after they began parading through the city, protesters began throwing eggs and running into the streets to attack. There were even old ladies on the side of the road saying prayers for the Gay's. "We believe these perverts should not be allowed to march on the streets of Moscow, the third Rome, a holy city for all Russians," said Igor Miroshnichenko, who said he was an Orthodox believer who had come to support the riot police. "It (homosexuality) is satanic," he said. One man holding a crucifix threatened to beat up any gay person he saw. Riot Police were sent to break it up, arresting over 120 people both supporters and opponents, But if the cops don't tow the "politically-correct" line, they suffer retribution. A career-cop, Guy Adams, was suspended by his police department for his stance on homosexuality. He was threatened with termination if he continued to voice his concerns over gay-adoption and same-sex marriage. Adams' superiors went as far as investigating his political affiliations and activities which included working for conservative politician Dr. Alan Keyes.


Come on you dumbass commies, just let the people be who they are and let it all go. I don't see where someones sexual preference is another persons business. Let people be who they are. Attacking people for what they believe in or who they are attracted to is wrong. So out of all the things America has wrong at least one thing we have right is our rights and our freedoms. So maybe everyone should sit back and stop talking shit about their home Country during this crucial time in our history and start appreciating what little good is left in America. Although I do believe that even though we have the right to pretty much do and believe whatever, this Country has a long way to go before it will live up to its reputation as one of the best nation. So support the gays and lesbians this June and STOP THE HATE!

I don't know what this Judge in Texas is thinking! He is releasing over 400 children that were taken from their families a month or so ago when the Yearning for Zion "ranch" CULT was busted. Is SHE smoking crack? Yes, that's right it was a female judge that returned these children to their mothers. That is not a healthy or safe enviorment for these kids to be going back to. I am pretty bothered by this to be honest with you. I guess the plus side is that D.S.S. (Department of Social Services) will be conducting unannounced visits to the children where there will be medical, psychological and psychiatric examinations and, here is the big plus, the parents must attend and complete parenting classes. The families must remain in the state of Texas and notify the department within 48 hours of any trips more than 100 miles from their homes. Wow, its about time someone get these people intouchand up to date with 2008. That shit they are trying to pull is like living in 1808 or something. Their pathetic argument is that they are being persecuted for their religion, that even sounds like something some villager from the 19th century would have said. I feel like sitting them down and saying "Hey FREAKS the world thinks yall are wackfor forcing young girls to marry and have sex with men old enough to be their dads, that shit is wack!" Although I will never be able to share my dismay with these nut cases at least the whole country is having a good laugh at their expense and really that is the only upside to this scenario.


See what I am saying? This is not normal. No one dresses like that or treats their kids the way these people do. They really need to step into the 21st Century.

Here is a clip of a child being escorted off the ranch premises back in April.

Even sadder news: Universal Studios' Backlot went up into an inferno. This is the seven fire the studio has experienced since it was founded in 1915. Over 40,000 reels were destroyed in the vault but thank goodness nothing in the main vault, which contains the archival footage was destroyed. Not to mention historic sets, like the Courthouse from Back To The Future and New York street, which includes movie set-style buildings designed to look like the cityscape of New York City and the King Kong Exhibit on the lot were damaged. The set of "The Changeling," a film recently directed by Clint Eastwood and starring Angelina Jolie, was "completely destroyed" and two of the eight locations used by the CBS series "Ghost Whisperer" were affected. There was a commercial being shot on the Backlot of the studio where the fire began, and an investigation is under way. Big thanks to the fire fighters and volunteers who stopped what they were doing to help douse the blaze with water and save Universal. Below are a few shots of the inferno.
