I'm hoping that Breaking News on April 10th is that a Grand Jury in Sanford FL indicts George Zimmerman and Treyvon Martin's family is on the way to justice for his senseless, racist motivated death. That child should just not be dead. He should be finishing his senior year at high school carrying out his goal to attend college and build a good life.

Another, Federal indictment for a hate crime would be icing on the cake!

Lesbian Awarded $1.6M Over Boss Forcing Prayer for her Soul

by Steve Williams
April 5, 2012
4:20 pm




A jury has ordered restaurateur Edward Globokar to pay $1.6 million in damages to a former employee after he began using work time to pray for her to be cured of being a lesbian. The New York Post reports jurors awarded chef Mirella Salemi $1.2 million in punitive damages and $400,000 in compensatory damages. Salemi quit her job at the Mary Ann restaurant on West Broadway, New York, after what she alleged was a sustained campaign of discrimination by Globokar. The Post reports the former owner of Mary Ann’s made her life a “living hell” by holding employee prayer meetings, some of which were reportedly designed to pray for her soul.

“He not only threatened her soul, but he also threatened her livelihood,” said Derek Smith of Derek Smith Law Group P.C. which specializes in sexual orientation and sexual harassment claims and represented Salemi in this case. “He thought praying might cure her of her sexuality, but she is someone who didn’t need to be saved.”

The verdict, handed down on March 6, noted that while Globokar included all employees in his forced prayer meetings and told all of them that they risked eternal damnation for not sharing in his beliefs, Salemi seemed especially singled out because of her sexual orientation. As Edge Boston notes, Globokar’s evangelizing over Salemi’s sexual orientation is interesting for the fact that the Mary Ann restaurant is situated on West Broadway in New York City’s TriBeCa neighborhood, an area that has earned a reputation as a prime “gay neighborhood.”

I feel for his family, but he was one of the most sexist news anchors through the years in terms of working with female journalists as equals. Maybe just one more man that was a product of his time. The field has lost a talented professional.

Default Gates Foundation cuts ties to U.S. conservative group

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has become the latest big-name financial supporter to back away from a group that pushes conservative and corporate priorities in U.S. state capitals.

The foundation said it would not award another grant to the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in the face of criticism of the council's involvement in voting laws and in "stand your ground" gun laws such as one under scrutiny in the Trayvon Martin shooting in Florida.

ColorOfChange, a political group that advocates for black Americans, has led a public campaign to persuade corporations to distance themselves from ALEC. ColorOfChange's executive director is Rashad Robinson, who previously worked for a voting-rights group and a gay-rights group.

Civil rights advocates have said they are considering economic boycotts of companies that support so called "stand your ground" laws that permit civilians to carry and use weapons in cases of self defense. Corporate backers of ALEC were also singled out last year for the group's support of state laws requiring that voters show identification when they vote. ColorOfChange says the laws unfairly burden racial minorities and the poor.

Three companies that have said since January they are cutting their ties with ALEC are the Coca-Cola Co, Kraft Foods Inc and PepsiCo Inc. A fourth company, Intuit Inc, said it left ALEC near the end of 2011 but declined to comment further.

Homophobes need (gay) love too

And then came the headline that surprised exactly no one and delighted a great many, even as it openly terrified countless thousands across the deep south and also Utah and Kansas and pretty much the entire GOP. The poor dears.
