Did you see the Dale Hansen (Dallas sports anchor) video on Sams? It surprised me in a good way.

Progress is made. Three steps forward. (marriage equality in 8 new states last year)

One step back (The bill in Kansas to legalize discrimination).

But eventually the wave will hit that boat.

Fantastic image.

Matthew Shepard and Harvey Milk - when I saw those two figures in this cartoon....it just hit my heart and the tears have been rolling. It's for them and all the LGBTQ that we keep working and fighting.

Thank you for posting this.

I saw the image on Facebook, and knew immediately that I had to bring it over here. It is so powerful.


BTW, I just read your story on madfloridian's post, and it touched me deeply.

I gave you a heart because of it. I hope your life will go more gently from here on out...

I can think of a million other applications for the symbolism.

And I did not even think of the symbolism!

Thank you for bringing that to my attention.

Highlights: What's different in these 2 pictures
College: Compare and Contrast...blah...blah...symbolism...blah ...blah
THIS one can be applied to an infinite number of applications.

By the deluge of society's outrage at his backward intolerance. He better head to higher moral ground.
