Welcome to my Arizona Visitors

If you got here from the Prop 102 article on the Arizona Central web site, this posting is for you.

Please use my photos to promote equality and fairness for everyone!!!

One of the commentators (Diego400) on the azcentral web site has linked to photos on my site using them in a disingenuous attempt to support his hateful and intolerant position. I really dislike it when folks use my images to promote their narrow minded and bigoted point of view. The photos were taken in 2005 at the Pride Celebration Parade in San Francisco. Yes, skimpy clothes and sexy bodies are part of the gay pride parade culture, but to hold up a pride celebration as the sole example of gay culture is misleading and dishonest. It would be like using Mardi Gras in New Orleans as an example of straight culture. Yes, it’s one element, but absolutely not representative of the culture as a whole.

Folks who want to (in the case of California) eliminate the rights of same-sex couples to marry, or try to prevent it in the first place never seem to be able to articulate precisely how it is that same-sex marriage will hurt society. They are however very good at fanning the flames of a vague fear using dishonest and misleading strategies. Yes, Diego400, I’m talking about you! However, having been around same-sex weddings, let me tell you, there is nothing to be afraid of. The folks getting married in San Francisco in 2004 were very ordinary, bordering on boring, folks, many with kids. I don’t know how anyone could see these photos and think of these people or their marriages as a threat.  See for yourself:

Please take a moment and help support equality for all, and donate to the anti-prop 102 folks!!!

Sadly, I’m sure Diego400 is beyond hope and will continue his campaign against his fellow citizens, but maybe you can see through the lies, deception and hatred, and promote tolerance and love for all the citizens of Arizona.

Thanks for stopping by!

By the way, here’s the photos Diego400 wanted you to see.
