Taking the bull by the balls Part 3

I’m calling you sissies out!

Ok I am just gonna say it, The gays are getting on my nerves. I know I know your thinking “Hey DJ are you not gay?” Yes I am but I am a gay with common sense, ah these is the difference. It seems I am also a that is not a coward gay.

So several states have decided “Hey we got some real issues going on, if two men or two women want to get married and drive each other fucking crazy who am I to deny them that?” and so many states are passing gay marriage laws or some kind of equivelant. Everybody is getting in on the fun except for California, who can say why, maybe the closet movie stars decided they couldn’t vote against prop 8, but I digress.

President Obama who has stated in the past he does not believe in gay marriage but he does believe in equality says yes to civil unions or same couple unions or whatever the buzz word is. Personally if it allows me to visit my sick partner in the hospital without a lot of bullshit you can call it booboo kitty fuck! Anyway we have a President who is clearly on our side, much more than the previous one, but clearly he is not moving fast enough for my fellow homosexuals. So they have decided to attack him, and they are boycotting, and doing all kinds of “cutting off your nose to spite your face” type shit.

The ziplock commercial taught is yellow and blue make green but what does yellow and pink make? What the hell do you mean there is going to be a stonewall cocktail party or whatever it is that is gay themed and the power gays that are invited are not going? How fucking crazy are you people, I mean have the poppers fried your brain cells? Excuse my racism but Damn yall is real white!

Where was all this noise and revolt and boycott of the invites to the gays from the Bush White house….oh yeah that is right, yall didn’t get invited to the White House cause nobody gave a fuck about you then. So now that someone has shown you a little attention you have decided to grow a pair? That is so gay!

So to my fellow gays, you want Gay to be the new black and really mean it, you will A) Learn a little fucking patience, people of color still catching hell across the country and the Emancipation proclamation was put into effect back in 1862. The Black Power Movement was 1966-1975 and we are still looking for a level playing field. B) Don’t attack your allies. We were in the dark for over 8 years and now you want to bite the hand that is feeding you cause the vittles are not coming fast enough?

I wish Barack would invite me to the White House, two minutes face time to make my case, Hell yeah I am going!

You crazy sissies! Gay has a long way to go for it gets black, right now it is still very yellow!

Taking the bull by the balls Part 2

A few random thoughts about gay Marriage.

So Prop 8 was upheld by the courts today in California and the gays are up in arms. I wonder just how long it will take for them to blame the President for this. I had a conversation with a friend today about Prop 8 and gay marriage and I told him at some point how tired I was of this conversation (not with him just in general).

In an earlier post I asked if gays thought that being gay was their ethnicity and nobody was able to convince me otherwise. So today when reading about the California Supreme Court upholding prop 8 I read all these stories comparing themselves to slavery. I find that so very offensive. Apples and Oranges people.

The “gay” community is mostly white; now that is not to say that all gays are white, just that most of your advertising and your numbers are geared toward white gay men and women. When you see the face of gay America there is very little color in that picture. So I find it odd that this group wants to identify with the civil rights fight when they are one of the most inclusive least diverse groups running around. Case in point… The groups fighting against Prop 8 in California, a state with a 35% Hispanic and Latino population waited until a week before the vote before printing any of their literature in Spanish.

The religious right does not want marriage to be “redefined” because they don’t want folks hoarding in on their racket. Marriage at its bases is about property ownership. Check the 16^th century when only people who, sorry only MEN who owned property. The poor didn’t get married, not in the legal sense that we know today. Also if marriage was simply about “God” then why do you need a marriage license? If you want to fight an injustice then by all means fight the whole injustice. The entire marriage system as it exists in this country today is flawed; let’s fight to overhaul the whole thing instead of just screaming how something is not fair.

And finally the next time I try to get into a “White gay club” please don’t ask me for three pieces of ID or treat me like I don’t belong. (see Civil Rights)

If I put white paint on a black horse does it become a zebra? How soon we forget our own struggle.

According to a September 25th blog entitled “The Nation Will right Itself If It Fixes Sex”, Christian Civil League of Maine Executive Director Michael Heath stated that America’s tolerance of Gays and legal unions was the reason for our current economic crisis.

You know the sad thing about this is as scary as it is coming from those in the white community there are so many in the black community that latch on to this type of wait for it…..hatred and bigotry.

According to the St. Petersburg Times on September 25th “A group of black and Latino pastors pledged to rally support among their congregations for Amendment 2, the measure that would essentially ban gay marriage in Florida.


The pastors had gathered at Beulah Baptist Institutional Church for a meeting with the High Impact Leadership Coalition, a national organization that seeks to organize churches and community leaders around moral issues. Wednesday's meeting was the first of five gatherings in Florida to mobilize minority pastors for Amendment 2.

The coalition also is holding similar forums for pastors in California and Arizona, where marriage amendments will appear on the ballot in November.
"We are not standing here against gays," Bishop Harry R. Jackson Jr. the coalition's leader and pastor of Hope Christian Center in Beltsville, Md., said at a news conference at the Tampa church. "We're standing simply to proclaim that marriage should be preserved."

Now I can’t really get that upset by the likes of Michael Heath, Fred Phelps, Jerry Farwell, or Pat Robertson who preach their hate...oh I’m sorry their opinion thru bigotry. Who turn tragedy into fodder for their own agendas! I mean after all these are all white men who have never been the subject of hate crimes simply because you are different, but come on we are just two generations away (if that) from black men and women being hosed down in the streets, having police dogs sicced upon them, and Jim Crow bathrooms. Where do we get off trying to deny another group of people anything? Should we not all ban together for the struggle?


I did a little research, because I understand Marriage is a sacred institution, and it is to be taken seriously. It is time for that man and the woman to stand in front of God and their community and pledge their unyielding love and commitment for each other. Here are some people that loved the sanctity of marriage so much they kept doing it.
Zsa Zsa Gabor-9
Liz Taylor, Mickey Rooney, Lana Turner-8
Larry King, Martha Raye, -7
Jerry Lee Lewis, Tony Curtis-6
Louis Armstrong, Ernest Borgnine, James Cameron, Joan Collins, Michal Chrinton, Henry Fonda, Judy Garland, Dennis Hopper, Bridgette Nielson, Billy Bob Thorton-5
And my favorite, A minister named Glynn Wolfe who passed in 1997 holding the record for the most marriages. 29

Hmmmm I can see where we are saving the sanctity of marriage in this country, that last Glynn Wolfe marriage was a publicity stunt that lasted 19 days.

On the eve of one of the greatest most important elections in American history, the one that is literally changing everything, I close with two quotes, one from one of my favorite Star Trek Captains, Jean Luc Picard, the other from one of my favorite people Whoopi Goldberg.

"You know, there are some words I've known since I was a schoolboy: ' With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.'

“If you are against gay marriage, then don’t marry a gay!”
