I can't help but feel that whenever a left-leaning organization brings up poo poo like that, it's with the express intention of delegitimizing whatever they claim to promote. Not that they're incapable of having laughably wrong opinions, but it sometimes seems like it's specifically meant to justify opposing views.

Well, if you do, you'll fit right in with Aribama politics. This guy got in a fight with someone at a polling place because he was taking their signs down claiming they were too close. Also, he shut down an ethnic studies program at a high school because it wasn't white enough or something, so he's a full-bore dickhead.



I got to see the full glory of Arizona ideology, as I lived there during the 2008 election. A good buddy of "J.T." Ready, Hayworth apparently had a graphic designer with slightly different political views. When you see it...

Got me wondering, anyone know why (for at least the past 20 years) violence involving the LGBT community only seems to go one way? The most violent acts I've seen taken by pro-LGBT groups are glitter-bombing/throwing food and just a lot of posturing from smaller, more extreme groups.

I knew gay-rights groups (along with almost every civil rights groups) were more confrontational during the 60s and 70s, that's why I said "for at least the past 20 years". Now that I've thought about it, though, the answer may have to do with the tactics LGBT groups use in their activism and that there tends to be a lot issues with elitism in them. Then again, I still don't know if I'm actually right about my assertion.

speaking of graffitti in atlanta, ga there is a popular tunnel where artwork is allowed (at least appears to be, I dunno if artists grapple with the police or not now that I think about it). recently an organization had plans to close the tunnel for a party costing $100 to attend. the neighborhood planning unit or whatever voted it down and so the organization went around them to the city and got a permit. this obviously is unfair, bad for the community and surrounding neighborhoods, etc. and the community had their own (perhaps also unfair) response. on I believe the day of the event, various protestors gathered to paint over the entire tunnel so that by time the event started that evening it was quite a different scene than usual.

No, that's entirely fair. What were the reactions from the people who threw the party?
