BROOKLYN: Crackpot Anti-Gay Assemblyman Dov Hikind Dons Blackface

To contact us Click HERE
New York state Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) is the state's second-most vicious anti-gay legislator, falling only slightly behind Sen. Ruben Diaz, who is also a Democrat.  The New York Post reports on his latest bit of assholery.

Assemblyman Dov Hikind donned a blackface costume yesterday at his blowout Purim party and defended the outrageous getup as a harmless “basketball” look. The joyous Jewish celebration of Purim can often involve Halloween-type costumes and Hikind didn’t spare any detail in his curious retro look. He wore brown face paint, sunglasses, an Afro wig and an orange jersey. “I was just, I think, I was trying to emulate, you know, maybe some of these basketball players. Someone gave me a uniform, someone gave me the hair of the actual, you know, sort of a black basketball player,” Hikind told the political news Web site Politicker.

Hikind says he cannot imagine how anybody would find his costume inappropriate, insensitive, racist, or just plain in poor taste. All four! (Tipped by JMG reader Little David)

PREVIOUSLY ON JMG:  During New York state's 2011 marriage equality debate in the Assembly, Hikind brandished a photograph of Lady Gaga and declared that if marriage passes, "We should take the Torah and throw it in the garbage." In 2010 Hikind attempted to have gay victims of the Holocaust stricken from a planned memorial in his home district because seeing that homosexuals were murdered by the Nazis "diminishes the memory" of the Jews that were also slaughtered.

MINNESOTA: NOM Pledges $500K Towards Defeat Of Pro-Gay Republicans

To contact us Click HERE
"Republicans like Branden Petersen don't realize that not only is voting to redefine marriage a terrible policy, it is also a career-ending vote for a Republican. NOM will do everything in our power to defeat any Republican who votes in favor of same-sex marriage. Legislators need look no further than what happened to GOP Senators in New York. Four of them were responsible for passing gay marriage. We helped take out three of those Senators by repeatedly informing their constituents of their betrayal on marriage. They are now out of office. We will not hesitate to do the same thing in Minnesota." - Hate group leader and secret Vatican employee Brian Brown, today pledging $500,000 towards the defeat of any Minnesota Republican who votes for marriage equality.

FACT CHECK: As I've pointed out here many times: The actual fact is that New York GOP Sen. James Alesi did not run because of a scandal involving a lawsuit he filed after being injured while trespassing at a stranger's house. The actual fact is that Sen. Shirley Huntley lost because she was arrested (and later pleaded guilty) to federal corruption charges. The actual fact is that former Sen. Carl Kruger is in prison right now.  And still NOM takes credit.

Nigel Barker To Make David Mixner Biopic

To contact us Click HERE
Photographer, author, and former model Nigel Barker, who is best known from his 17 seasons as a judge on America's Next Top Model, has announced that he is working on a film about legendary gay activist David Mixner. Paper Magazine asked Barker about his relationship with Mixner and the upcoming film:

 "First of all I always loved a great, true story. Whenever [David and I] meet I ask him questions about his life. He's an incredible raconteur. I basically sit like a child and get whacked into this story, transformed and taken there. All of a sudden I'm in another era and another moment, and I can feel for the people. And he has a very visual way of describing. I realized [his stories] had the ability to become a film. I asked for consent for a screenplay and eventually a film of his life. He said he'd been approached in the past but never felt there was the right person. Then he said to me, "I would love you to do it."

When did you first meet David?
"I first met him at an Alan Cumming salon event. Alan Cumming has these salons where he does interesting things with about 30 people. That time Susan Sarandon was talking. I knew of David Mixner but I didn't know what he looked like. When I was introduced to him he said "Hello, I'm David" and was sitting in a wheelchair. I asked him if I could get him a drink, and he said that he didn't drink. He didn't know many people in this group and we just started talking. Later I realized, 'My god, this is David Mixner. I know his story.'"

How far along in the film-making process are you?
"We questioned him for ages and wrote down the stories. He also produced this one-man show called "From the Front Porch" which we recorded and made transcripts of. The screenplay's like a hundred pages over what people like screenplays to be. We're trying to write, get control of it and bring it down. We're hoping to have our screenplay in a good state by the next month or so and really start the process of making the film."

Barker declined to say who he has in mind to play Mixner. Hit the link and read the rest of the interview.

RELATED: I chatted with David several times in Philadelphia this weekend without him once mentioning the movie. Probably because he knew I'd have been tempted to blog the news immediately.

Bill Donohue: The Lavender Mafia Brought Down Cardinal Keith O'Brien

To contact us Click HERE
"Cardinal Keith O’Brien of Scotland will not be going to Rome to join the conclave because he does not want to distract from the proceedings. He has resigned following allegations by three priests and one former priest that he was involved in improper conduct. He says the accusations are untrue. Is this another example of the 'Lavender Mafia' at work?

"Consider this. We don’t know the names of the four men making the accusations because the British newspaper behind this story, The Observer, won’t release them; the details of what allegedly happened have not been disclosed (all we know are vague statements about 'inappropriate' and 'unwanted' contact); the four accusers waited over 30 years to come forward before coordinating their joint charges.

"Cardinal Keith O’Brien must be considered innocent until proven guilty. But we don’t need to wait any longer to conclude that the British media have discredited themselves again (they do so regularly with all matters Catholic). To withhold the names of the accusers, and the details of what allegedly happened (dating back to 1980), without ever allowing the accused to rebut the charges, is despicable. Am I alone in picking up the scent of lavender in the air?" - Catholic League blowhard Bill Donohue, who should be doing cartwheels over the news that a Catholic official has only been accused of having sex with adults.

Restricted Driver's License in Tennessee

To contact us Click HERE
What is a restricted driver's license in Tennessee? Often you hear that you will lose your license in Tennessee if you are convicted of a first offense DUI, is that true? Yes, in Tennessee upon your conviction for a first offense DUI you will have to forfeit your license to the Tennessee Department of Safety, and if you are eligible then you may apply for a restricted driver's license. http://nashvilleduiinfo.com

If you meet certain criteria in Tennessee you may apply for a restricted drivers license. Some of the criteria are; you may not in the last ten years have had a prior DUI; you must obtain SR-22 insurance; no prior conviction for vehicular homicide; aggravated vehicular homicide; or vehicular assault by intoxication. If you meet these criteria you may apply for a restricted driver's license from the judge that heard your case or plea.

So you might ask, on a restricted driver's license in Tennessee where can I drive? Under 55-10-403(s) there are many places you may drive, some places include safety programs ordered by the court, college classes, litter pick up, religious services, and work. However one should note that being a part time student or those searching for work, does not meet the criteria.

Where do you have to go to get your restricted driver's license? In Tennessee once the judge signs you order you must take two certified copies of the Order along with your SR-22 insurance to the DMV station. It is there you will take the eye exam and driving test to obtain your restricted license.

Will the judge sign the Order for my restricted driver's license in Tennessee if I owe court costs and fines? It depends on the county you are in, some counties in Tennessee will make you pay a fraction down on the costs and set you up on a payment plan, other counties will make you pay the entire amount before they issue you the Order to take to the Tennessee DMV station. It is entirely up to the jurisdiction you are in.

Summit Church Sparks Nevada's Response To Christianity? Throw Her Out.

Kent Paris who's reparative NARTH based agenda focuses on polluting middle of the road  Christian churches was confronted by Kathy Verbiest Baldock who authors Canyon Walker Connections at the Summit Church Sparks Nevada on February 10th 2013. This is what happened:



From the Youtube description: On February 10, 2013, after attending four sessions of the six given by ex-gay leader Kent Paris at Summit Church, Sparks, NV, I stood to make a 1:30 minute statement that I posted on my blog. I am confident Pastor Bond and Paris had already read it.
I had two plain clothes policemen and three church security men on me immediately. I had only gotten my name out of my mouth. nI am confident Pastor Bond and Paris had already read.
I had two plain clothes policemen and three church security men on me immediately. I had only gotten my name out of my mouth.
The man taping it, Mark, was pushed to a chair and also escorted out.
Here was my posted statement that got me evicted:

"Do you know the consequences of rejecting your gay youth as opposed to accepting them?

If parents with gay children were to follow the teachings and therapeutic tools offered by Kent Paris, your gay youth are EIGHT times more apt to attempt suicide than those gay youth who are accepted.

They may suffer depression SIX times more often than those who are accepted.

They are THREE times more likely to get involved in drug and alcohol abuse than those gay youth that are accepted.

They are THREE times more likely to contract HIV and/or STDs than accepted gay youth

This is research; this is scientific, peer reviewed research.

If you are the parent of a gay youth, when you leave here, stop on the way home and buy a package of razors, a bottle of whiskey, a hypodermic needle and a lifetime supply of antibiotics because that is the life you will more often impose on your gay child through your rejection and shaming.

This is what you will be doing to the child you have been charged to raise in the way they should go.

Do not try to force your child to be something they are not, something to your liking. You will not only be responsible for the effects on their mental and physical health, you will also, in all likelihood, push them from God."
