http://pamshouseblend.com/diary/12845/massachusetts-h8ers-have-their-heads-in-the-toilet-againAlvin got it so right the other day when he highlighted the disingenuous nature of the way bigots fight. And here from Massachusetts is a recent case in point. It would be comical if the ramifications of their actions weren't so harmful. The Coalition for Marriage and Family* (CMF), which uses the scare tactic of "there'll be sex predators in your daughter's bathroom!!!" to fight the Trans rights bill (H 1728), is urging their militant minions in a 9/4/09 email to pester Massachusetts lawmakers with an AP story about a kid who is trying to make a difference and has inadvertently called their bluff.
Summer is winding down and our legislators will return to Beacon Hill next week, where committees could take action on a number of bills-including the Bathroom Bill (H. 1728).
Now news out of the state of Vermont reveals a push is on there to force high schools to create genderless bathrooms-regardless of the cost to cities and towns. Vermont advocates of same-sex marriage cite this as an "opportunity to again be the first in the nation," as they were with the creation of civil unions. Read the Associated Press report on this here.
