Out-Takes

This is a great blog. The information you share is information that needs to be held up to the light of day...every day.

I am a straight male in the waning years of my life, but have been honored to call numerous gay and lesbian people my friends, and shall always do so.

This particular post is heart rending. Nothing should be more important than the threads that link us as family and friends.

Please continue posting...

Very touching. Have you thought of starting petitions etc., for protection for these kids and awareness amongst other ignorant people like me?

I am sure a lot of the interweb clan can give you the helping hand you need, and at least start some kind of an awareness program, which hopefully at some point might help these kids and the gay community.

You are not ignorant just unaware.

I am hoping to meet people in similar situations.

Fighting this battle alone is draining and beyond my financial scope. All the lawyers I've discussed this with have just shaken their heads.

None interested in landmark cases.

Even GLAD, the orginazation I've cited below has admitted they only go for cases that are sure bets.

They knew how many families were tormented by the fact that loving, same sex couples could not marry.

They held off for years till they were sure the timing and the case was right.

And in the custody case below they were using laws already in existance.

I'm sure GLAD probably has figures on just how many, bereft custodians are out there. Mothers, fathers,grandparents,aunts, uncles, and well-intentioned friends.

In the light of potential damage to our future generation,something has to be done.

Thanks for your concern,

Josie
