The US military and State Department aren't the only branches of the US government to "go gay." Since the Obama Administration took control, the FBI and CIA, the two main federal law enforcement and surveillance organizations, have fully embraced the homosexual and transgender movements, and appear to be poised to crack down on pro-family groups and citizens who are critical.

CIA Celebrates National LGBT Pride Month

The Central Intelligence Agency's Center for Mission Diversity and Inclusion and the Agency's Network of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Employees and Allies (ANGLE) co-hosted a panel discussion of CIA senior leaders as part of the 2012 June Pride Month celebration. The panel highlighted the role allies—straight family members, friends, colleagues, and managers who believe in and actively promote equality—play in creating an inclusive workforce for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) employees at the CIA. The discussion also highlighted the theme of the CIA's Pride Month celebration: "Inclusion for All, Celebrating with Pride."

The Deputy Associate Deputy Director of the CIA began the event by underlining the importance of sustaining an inclusive workplace for all employees. "We need to reflect the nation we protect and support equality, fairness, and justice for everyone in our organization," he said. "We are one Agency, one organization, one workforce."

The CIA's employee affinity group ANGLE assists the CIA's LGBT workforce and educates officers about workplace issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity. Established more than 15 years ago, ANGLE also advises senior CIA policymakers on human resources and other matters related to LGBT officers and their families. The Center for Mission Diversity and Inclusion works closely with ANGLE and other employee affinity groups to foster a diverse work environment.

I find out more good news from the scared rants of fanatics than from almost any other source. ;)

So glad that the two parts of the US government that require the greatest intelligence and understanding of diversity, are exhibiting intelligence and appreciation for diversity. This is a big improvement from an era just a few years ago when the DOD was firing all of its linguists and foreign analysts for being L,G,B,T, or M (muslim).

The man behind Mass Resistance is a real phobe all the way around, and is a card carrying member of the right wing nut club who is obviously endorsed and more than likely at least partially funded by Pat Robertson and his paranoid, looney, allies.

I read the original article and cringed at the VENOM that was spewed all over us. This man should be arrested for inciting violence by hate. Freedom to speak freely comes with responsibility and reasonable limitations. I am of the opinion that he has crossed the line. IF any of us anywhere in the world gets murdered because of this man and his openly hateful, extreme ramblings...HIS head should hang for it!

I think it's too bad that he is such a nasty human being, because I personally think he's cute otherwise. The fact that he called the TG attorney a "Man wearing a dress" shows how uneducated and ignorant he is. What makes this even sadder is that I am almost sure he knows that being trans (FTM or MTF) is a MEDICAL CONDITION, and NOT A CHOICE!

He has purposely disregarded all medical and psychological evidence brought forth by science that being trans isn't something you just decide to be. You don't wake up one morning and decide to change your gender, with the exception of certain people who do not represent us. http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/Warning.html (http://ai.eecs.umich.edu/people/conway/TS/Warning.html)

Renee' Richards, Dani Bunton Berry, Sandra MacDougal, and Samantha Kane are people who slipped through the cracks of the screening process. The work of their various doctors and therapists was to blame, as was these trans women's deceptive behavior toward the medical and mental health community. Their behavior and manipulation towards their professionals working with them was  something that COULD HAVE been detected only if money didn't speak so loudly.

These are the types of cases that people use against us as individuals and as a community. I am sick and tired of the purposeful deception of the public being allowed to propagate by way of groups like Mass Resistance, Focus On The Family, and all of the others out here. Ignorance breeds hostility, hostility breeds violence, and violence breeds death and destruction. If only these groups would start to do the homework and start to see that they are being maliciously placed between their religion / faith, and scientific facts, they would become enlightened and there would be a revolt against these groups.

The world outside of these groups is indeed, I think, becoming more LGBTQ friendly. Even some churches are starting to apologize for their misdirected thoughts, emotions, misuse and misinterpretation of scripture, as well as their more discriminatory pasts.
