Mississippi lawmakers confused whether their own religious freedom bill is anti-gay


http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2014/02/m...l-is-anti-gay/

The LGBT fight is moving south and into red states. Anti-gay laws are in jeopardy everywhere in the US. Discrimination against LGBT is coming to an end.
You can make the laws to have us become acceptable but you can't change the heart of a bigot or make a person stop hating.

US Eyes Push Against Anti-Gay Laws Worldwide
WASHINGTON February 27, 2014 (AP)


http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireS...dwide-22688954


Quote:
Troubled by an anti-gay movement in Uganda and across much of the world, the U.S. is launching a new effort to combat what Secretary of State John Kerry described Wednesday as a threat to human rights.

Comparing a harsh Uganda law to oppressive government crackdowns on German Jews in the 1930s and black South Africans during apartheid, Kerry said he was going to direct American ambassadors to look at "how we deal with this human rights challenge on a global basis." He said 80 nations worldwide have anti-gay laws on some levels, and he called the one in Uganda — which punishes gay sex with up to life in prison — "atrocious" and "flat out morally wrong."

"You could change the focus of this legislation to black or Jewish, and you could be in 1930s Germany, or you could be in 1950s or '60s apartheid South Africa," Kerry told reporters during a 55-minute question-and-answer session at the State Department. "It was wrong there, egregiously, in both places, and it is wrong here."

Ohio lawmaker withdraws ‘religious freedom’ bill

http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2014/02/o...-freedom-bill/

Quote:
Rep. Bill Patmon, a Cleveland Democrat who in December called his bill a “no-brainer” told Outlook yesterday that he was putting the bill on hold until it could be rewritten to erase concerns it might open the door to discrimination against LGBT people and others.

Arizona
Tempe, Ariz., approves LGBT-inclusive non-discrimination ordinance

http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2014/03/t...ion-ordinance/

Quote:
TEMPE, Ariz. — The Tempe City Council on Thursday unanimously approved a city-wide ordinance prohibiting discrimination against gay and transgender individuals in employment, housing and public accommodations.
The 7-0 vote comes just one day after Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed a “religious freedom” bill that would have allowed businesses to refuse service to gays and others, citing their religious beliefs.

“We are open for business,” said Tempe Mayor Mark Mitchell. “We don’t discriminate. We’re a fabulous community and I think you see that over and over.”...

Default Prestigious US military color guard makes history at Washington DC Pride


After over four decades of pride parades, 150,000 spectators at the Capital Pride parade witnessed something never before seen – a US Armed Forces color guard marching alongside rainbow flags and following Dykes on Bikes.

It’s a first for the 39th annual Capital Pride parade on Saturday or any other pride parade in the US with a new contingent – a US Armed Forces color guard that presents the red, white and blue as well as flags of each branch of the military.

The eight-member color guard team from the US Army Military District of Washington led the parade through Dupont Circle and 17th Street and ending at 14th Street and S Street.

‘The Department of Defense has authorized what military gay rights groups and organizers of the Capital Pride parade say is a first nationwide,’ reports The Washington Post.

A statement on Capital Pride’s website reads: ‘We are very proud that for the first time ever in our country, the Department of Defense will participate in a Pride Parade. We will have an Armed Forces Color Guard present and retire the colors at the 2014 Capital Pride Parade. This is significant step forward for the community as a whole and particularly for those LGBT members of the armed forces.’

According to the Post, although all military installations throughout the US have their own color guards, they have reportedly rejected all previous requests to appear in LGBT pride parades citing scheduling conflicts. The report also noted that there isn’t any official policy against their participation in pride events since the end of ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ in 2011.

*shudder*
I wish there were no national borders. I wish there was no military. I wish that events involving marginalized people didn't begin with a display of stsate sanctioned violence and weaponry and flags. (ok, the second thing in the parade)
Those are not the things that make me feel pride.
