Gay marriage rally at Disneyland
 
Quote:

A rally is being held to protest a fundraiser dinner being held at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel by the anti-gay Pacific Justice Institute (PJI), (which, of course, has nothing to do with justice) and its co-sponsor, “Focus on the Family. Both orgs purport to uphold family values while actually propagating hateful messages that negatively affect the LGBTQ community. Both have a proven track record of opposing equality and justice for all LGBTQ families and individuals.



Saturday, April 2: 4:00-7:00 PM – Anaheim, The Grand California Hotel on Public Sidewalk - 1600 S. Disneyland Dr., to “welcome” the attendees of the fundraiser as they arrive for the event, (with registration opening at 4:45pm and VIP reception at 5pm).

Inside the hotel the keynote speaker for PJI’s event will be Dick Morris--a person notorious for his antigay rhetoric... and biased commentary on Fox News. Focus on the Family is sponsoring the evening cocktail hour and will have Steve Jordahl as a representative of an organization that is categorized as a hate group. For more information on the Gala honoring these homophobes please see: http://www.pacificjustice.org/events...ration-justice

We will respectfully demonstrate against The Pacific Justice Institute (PJI) and Focus on Family as they are a source of great pain to all LGBT Families and their allies. For example, the PJI sued a school in the Castro Valley because the school allowed a gay minister to come speak to some classes about her struggles with coming out PJI and Focus on the Family our values as a community united against discrimination and working for Equality.

Scandalous!

Wish we didn't have other plans - I've never engaged in a protest rally and this is one I would consider strongly.

I'll be at Cedars Sinai.

The weather cooled off nicely today so I might be there. Anyone else?

I have a prior commitment in HB but I'm bringing my sign just in case I can.

I may make it.

Ugh, we're going to be at the Park tomorrow. Too bad I didn't know about this earlier, or I would have tried to rework my weekend, but impossible now.

Bah, I loves me a good gay vs. anti-gay conflict at Disneyland. Cheese is sad I'll be missing it.
:(
