QuoteYeah, the Homosexual Rights Corporation is a friend of the transgender community. If you still believe that fairy tale, I have some waterfront property along I-10 in the Atchafalaya Swamp between Breaux Bridge and Baton Rouge I'd like to sell you.

The series of HRC dinner protests initiated by the transgender community not long after our ENDA betrayal in October 2007 has been conservatively estimated to have cost HRC $1 million dollars in lost donation revenue.

So I understand why they wanted to sic HPD on the ->-bleeped-<-s. That rent is expensive on that headquarters building in DC, isn't it?

"...But it seems as though HRC has a problem with the Houston transgender
community exercising their First Amendment rights. The National HRC
office called the Houston Police Department in an attempt to shut down
the protest."
