Duggars Family Official Blocked GLBT Wedding Photos

https://www.facebook.com/pages/Duggars-Family-Official-Blocked-GLBT-Wedding-Photos/1486429344963516?fref=nf


Social media activists have generated 15,000 for Lucies Place, a housing and transitional support non profit in Arkansas for Homeless LGBT youth. We are asking everyone to chip in just $5.00 to show your support for youth who are kicked out of their homes due to religious abuse by parents following the bigoted ideology of the @DuggarFam. Kick in your five now. It's painless and will help a lesbian on the street get a bus pass, food, cell minutes, counseling and if we raise enough cash Lucie's Place will be able to provide desperately needed housing.
$15k! Will we be able to #doubletheduggars?! We'll see in the morning! #DefendtheDuggars http://www.luciesplace.org/support-us.html

I'm not fond of following links elsewhere, and find the headline intriguing. This family has officials? One of their officials somehow blocked photographs of a wedding? Or their official wedding photos were blocked in some way by someone....

Puzzling string of words that.

Of what combination of possible facts could that headline be descriptive?

but I *think* it has to do with the kissing photos on the Duggar website. The newest Duggar bride and her husband apparently posted a pic of them kissing that some people felt was inappropriate. Duggar mom & dad posted a pic of themselves kissing, said kissing between married couples was good, and encouraged others to post kissing pics. Some LBGT couples posted pics of them kissing, and they were removed.

What is a "Duggar Family Official"?

I dunno about how they run their family, since mine is an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week. But all the decision of that officer have to be ratified at a special biweekly meeting. By a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs,--
ARTHUR: Be quiet!
DENNIS: --but by a two-thirds majority in the case of more--
ARTHUR: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
WOMAN: Order, eh -- who does he think he is?
ARTHUR: I am your king!
WOMAN: Well, I didn't vote for you.
ARTHUR: You don't vote for kings.
WOMAN: Well, 'ow did you become king then?
