The MassResistance blog began in early 2005 with a Massachusetts focus on judicial tyranny, same-sex "marriage", and LGBT activism in our schools. We broadened our focus to national-level threats to our Judeo-Christian heritage, the Culture of Life, and free speech. In 2006, Article 8 Alliance adopted the name "MassResistance" for its organization. CAUTION: R-rated subject matter.

Romney Strong on Islamo-Fascists, Soft on Domestic Homo-Fascists
Now if Romney is thinking clearly about his Presidential eligibility, he'd better start dealing with the domestic threat from the homo-fascists. As we've pointed out many times on this blog, Romney is the true father of homosexual "marriage" in Massacusetts. Without his unconstitutional executive orders in 2004, the homosexual "marriages" would never have begun!
Does Romney believe in "open dialogue" with the cultural Marxists/Fascists who are out to destroy family structure and marriage? He seems to. His support of the homosexual agenda goes way back. He was endorsed in 1994 and 2002 by the Log Cabin Republicans (the homosexual extremist wing of that ridiculous "open tent" party). So not only does he "dialogue" with them, he gets their support!
Romney won't go far in the national Republican Presidential primaries (where the more conservative Republicans turn out) with his record as it now stands, having violated our state Constitution by issuing executive orders creating "Party A/Party B" marriage licenses, and ordering Justices of the Peace to perform sodomy "marriages." How can he salvage his resume? By acknowledging his grave error, and issuing a few corrective executive orders before he leaves office.
Adam Reilly of the Boston Phoenix called this one of Romney's "greatest gaffes":
[Romney] likes gay people: In 1994, while running against Ted Kennedy for the US Senate, Romney assures the Massachusetts Log Cabin Republicans that “as we seek to establish full equality for America’s gay and lesbian citizens, I will provide more effective leadership than my opponent.” (Remember, that opponent is Ted Kennedy. Romney gets the endorsement.) During his 2002 gubernatorial campaign, Romney operatives distribute bright-pink fliers at Boston’s gay-pride festival that read: “Mitt and Kerry wish you a great Pride weekend! All citizens deserve equal rights, regardless of their sexual preference.” Two years later, during his speech at the Republican National Convention, Romney likens the threat from same-sex marriage to the menace of Islamist terrorism.
And here's what Michigan conservatives said in September 2005:
“[Massachusetts Gov. Mitt] Romney is also finding new detractors. Many are coming from the conservative wing of his own party — just the voters he needs for a primary win. They see Romney as soft on core social issues like abortion, gay marriage, stem cell research and emergency contraception. …Gary Glenn, president of the…American Family Association (of Michigan), said Romney’s recent attempts to appeal to conservative voters is too little, too late. ‘Whether their name is Kennedy or Kerry or Romney, a liberal, pro-abortion, pro-gay rights politician from Massachusetts is not going to fare well among conservative, pro-family voters,’ Glenn said.”

"Bearded Ladies" and Patrick Guerriero
Someone had better notify Thomas that he is displaying his "transphobia" and in just a few years he could be charged with a "hate crime" if he continues to speak like that! Doesn't he know there's nothing freakish about "bearded ladies"? Doesn't he know that some of the most important voices shaping public policy in the years to come will be bearded ladies? (Check out these groups if you don't believe us: BAGLY, Mass Transgender Coalition, GenderCrash, GLAD, Transcending Boundaries Conference Worcester, National Center for Transgender Equality. And see "New England Leads on Transgender Rights," InNewsWeekly, 8-16-06.)
Massachusetts' own Rep. Barney Frank is working hard to get a federal ban on "transphobia". State Rep. Carl Sciortino is poised to file a "transgender rights" bill in the next session. Several Massachusetts localities -- Boston, Cambridge, Northampton -- already have city ordinances targeting transphobia, and Maine has a state law.
The new Executive Director of the Gill Foundation's Action Fund, Patrick Guerriero, is ready to dole out millions to the "trans rights" cause. As a former Massachusetts politician Guerriero has a special interest in our state, and MGLPC (the "gay" lobbying organization) has acknowledged he's working closely with them. A few months ago, while still head of the National Log Cabin Republicans, Guerriero signaled his commitment to the trans cause, and named the "male-to-female" leader of the National Center for Transgender Equality as his "personal mentor":
Coalitions with choice and environmental groups and hot button issues like the Schiavo matter represent an evolution in Log Cabin strategy. So too is a stronger focus on transgender rights that Guerriero has introduced in Log Cabin since he took over in 2002.
“I have actually brought a level of discussion of that issue to the organization over the past couple of years,” he explained, saying that Mara Keisling, executive director of the National Center for Transgender Equality, has served as “a personal mentor” to him.
“I think we need us all to move forward and we should be wary of leaving anyone behind,” Guerriero said.
So watch out Thomas -- and Massachusetts! No more "bearded ladies" talk allowed!

House Speaker DiMasi "Comes Out" & Other "Gay" Endorsements
In his brief remarks, DiMasi spoke about growing support in the Legislature to kill the anti-gay marriage amendment, still pending before the Constitutional Convention now scheduled for Nov. 9. "You can't imagine how many more people want to be on your side but are afraid because of the political ramifications," he said. "It's a matter of convincing them of what I consider to be the right thing to do. "The House speaker also spoke personally of his Italian immigrant heritage and his legal training, all of which easily brought him along the yellow brick road of gay equality. DiMasi said his grandfather taught him that "everyone in America has equal opportunity." He added, "That's what everybody deserves."
Here is the complete list of State House candidates publicly endorsed MGLPC. (Keep in mind that others not listed receive help from the GLBT activist groups and funds behind the scenes.) From Bay Windows:

The Caucus voted to withhold an endorsement in the 6th Suffolk House race for the seat held by retiring Rep. Shirley Owens-Hicks, in which two candidates, Willie Mae Allen and William Celester, Sr. both returned perfect questionnaires. The Caucus endorsed Melissa Murgo in her challenge to Rep. John Fresolo for his 16th Worcester House seat. The Caucus declined to issue an endorsement in the 12th Essex House race between Rep. Joyce Spiliotis, whose questionnaire indicated strong opposition to same-sex marriage, and challenger Sean Fitzgerald, who declined to return a questionnaire. The Caucus also declined to endorse in the 5th Essex race between Rep. Tony Verga, who did not turn in a questionnaire, and Max Schenk, who is running a sticker campaign. At the federal level the Caucus endorsed the reelection campaigns of Sen. Edward Kennedy and Congressmen John Tierney, Stephen Lynch, and William Delahunt.

"Fetus" or Baby?
Yesterday's Boston Globe ran a story about a dead "female fetus" that was discovered in a girls' restroom at Brighton High School. Was the dead "fetus" was just a bit of dead tissue? Was it human? (Story doesn't say.) The janitor who made the discovery was very shaken by his discovery of this dead tissue, though somewhat comforted that he could name the "fetus" after his mother before its burial.
Now, if this was a just a fetus, why does it need a burial suitable for a human baby? And why was its discovery so upsetting? Why didn't the janitor just throw it in the garbage? Why does it get a name? Why are the police searching for whoever abandoned the fetus? (And why does the Globe run a story?) Obviously, the Catholic Church, Baby Safe Haven, and the janitor understand what the Boston Globe does not: This was a human BABY, not a fetus.
A name, a grave for abandoned female fetus (Boston Globe, 8/31/06)
The name "Frances Hope" has been chosen. A cemetery plot has been donated by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Boston. A white sleeper and a sweater have been set aside to dress the body before burial. Tomorrow morning, at St. Patrick's cemetery in Watertown, the abandoned female fetus whose body was discovered at Brighton High School will be buried.
Baby Safe Haven New England, a nonprofit group that has taken custody of the body, offered Mojave [the janitor who discovered her] the chance to choose a name, as a way to comfort him. Mojave, who was deeply shaken by the experience, chose Frances, the name of his late mother.... Mojave chose the last name Hope, to honor another group that helps abandoned newborns. Police are searching for whoever delivered the fetus, which was not full term. They have not announced any leads.

Romney Cannot Be Trusted to Enforce Constitution on Nov. 9
If Romney were a man of principle, he would use his remaining time in office to acknowledge that error, that violation of his oath to uphold the Constitution, and rescind his executive orders that began homosexual "marriages".
Given Romney's national political ambitions, he may go the enforcement route this time, since national "conservative" eyes are more focused on him. But will he use law enforcement personnel to drag corrupt Legislators back in handcuffs (and then somehow force them to cast their votes -- with tazers, maybe?) if they refuse to take up the marriage amendment?
VoteOnMarriage/Mass. Family Institute still doesn't get it! The homosexual lobby has announced that if they don't have the votes to trounce the marriage amendment in November, they'll use any means necessary to bury it. Remember: The Speaker of the House just attended a fundraiser for the homosexual lobbying group. The Senate President attends "gay" weddings. Does VOM really believe Romney will stand up to them? He didn't stand up to Empress Margaret's unconstitutional "marriage" ruling. If Romney enforced that "law" that wasn't a law, should we expect he'll enforce a constitution that IS a constitution?
Why does VOM/Mass. Family Institute believe Romney can be trusted in November??? Don't they understand that ROMNEY IS THE REASON WE HAVE "HOMOSEXUAL MARRIAGE" IN MASSACHUSETTS NOW ... BECAUSE HE DID NOT ENFORCE THE CONSTITUTION FOLLOWING THE ABSURD SJC homosexual "marriage" ruling, but unconstitutionally ordered new marriage licenses to be printed, and ordered Town Clerks and Justices of the Peace to perform these fraudulent "marriages"! Why isn't VOM/MFI spending their time convincing the Governor to overturn these executive orders? The corruption of our Legislature -- and sadly, our Governor -- is so deep that polite people have trouble recognizing it.
From the Mass. Family Institute web site:
Marriage Amendment vote on track for Nov. 9: Though the Legislature ducked the issue of same-sex marriage last week-voting to recess until after the November elections-the issue is far from dead and the Marriage Amendment is alive and well. The House and Senate will meet again on Nov. 9 to debate the people's amendment in another Constitutional Convention.... We have more than enough votes to pass the Amendment before the end of this legislative session on Dec. 31. The current incumbents are the ones who will vote on Nov. 9 - their term does not end until Dec. 31, as is the case with Gov. Mitt Romney. We cannot forget that he is ready and willing to enforce the constitution should the Legislature shirk their responsibility."

Spawn of Queers?
The promoters of the term didn't meet certain Wikipedia criteria (it's nice to know there are still some rules). From the Bay Windows report:
Queerspawn is used by some children of LGBT parents to describe themselves to show their direct connection to the LGBT community, rather than to see their connection to the community as a product of their parents. Use of the term is far from standard, although the now-deleted Wikipedia article claims it was first proposed in 1995 by Stefan Lynch, first director of COLAGE (Children of Lesbians and Gays Everywhere). The text of the deleted Wikipedia entry was posted by self-identified queerspawn author Abigail Garner on her blog, DamnStraight.Oversampled.net....
While anyone can create or edit articles on Wikipedia, the site has content guidelines that users in the discussion said the queerspawn entry violated. One was that articles are required to cite published secondary sources, and much of the information on the evolution of the term in the queerspawn article did not cite such sources. Wikipedia also prohibits entries focused on new terms coined and used by certain communities but that do not appear in published dictionaries.

Pain In the Derriere?
The Boston Globe reports today on the alleged anal rape of a 17-year-old girl and client, by a male staffer at the Baker House, a center for at-risk teens in Dorchester. The staffer was in charge of a program of pre-adolescent boys. The question obviously comes to mind how the staffer related to those boys.
According to the report compiled by the DSS, the girl had earlier agreed to paid sexual encounters with the man, then balked at anal sex. (The implication is that this was a novel request.) She reportedly said no when he wanted to go there, but said he persisted.
On the afternoon of Jan. 5, the girl told prosecutors, she was in the basement playing cards when Patrick gave her "the cue," and she met him upstairs, where he asked her to go to a bathroom. She said he then offered her $40 to have anal sex. The teenager "stated that she told him 'no' several times, but he wasn't listening to her; he covered her mouth and did what he wanted anyway," the report says.
She reported the alleged episode to Baker House managers, including Rivers, who went to her house that night to pray with the girl and her mother and discuss what had happened, according to the DSS report and another document written by Baker House executive director Jeanette Boone. Before Rivers arrived, the girl left for the hospital because she said she felt sick to her stomach and was in "a lot of pain." [emphasis added]
The Globe also reports that the accused " ... had worked at the center for five years, had served time in the early 1990s for armed robbery and assault and battery. He had been in charge of a Baker House program for preadolescent boys." [emphasis added]
Catholic Colleges Allow GLBT Clubs
Back at Georgetown, GUPride, the LGBTQ club encourages students to "come out" at Georgetown." "GUPride provides educational and support services to the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) communities at Georgetown University. We also provide support and referral services to those exploring their sexual orientation and/or gender identity and other individuals sharing an interest in these issues." Its announced activities include participating in "Drag Races" in D.C., " ... one of the city's most highly anticipated annual gay gatherings, with dozens of men and women racing in creative drag while onlooking crowds exceed 5,000."
There is also a Georgetown "Diversity Action Council" whose web pages begin with quotations from CampusPride.net. The univeristy offers courses in "Womanist Theology," women's studies, and feminist theory. We all know what that includes.
The promotion of homosexuality, bisexuality, and transsexuality apparently is OK at the Catholic colleges, but Protestant Bible study groups are questionable! Imagine the damage they could do.

Massachusetts DSS Out of Control
What better way to hasten their utopian society than place as many children as they can get their hands on with "families" headed by GLBT same-sex couples? Who cares if heterosexual couples have played by the rules and waited years on end with no adoptive placement? (See our previous posting on a DSS-funded group home for "GLBTQ" children.)
Example: Recently two homosexual men, in whose house DSS had placed a little boy, were honored as "Parents of the Year" by DSS. The DSS apparently took the boy from his birth parents and extended family against their wishes. ("Newton couple honored as ’Parents of the Year’ by DSS", Daily News Tribune, August 9, 2006.) Interesting: one daddy is 43 years older than the child, the other daddy is 47 years older. So on top of the boy learning up close that sodomy is a good thing and a valid basis for "marriage", he is saddled with "parents" who are beyond the age that was recently standard for adoptive parents (where at least one was to be not more than 40 years older than the child).
He [Daddy #1] said the day after Christian’s adoption was finalized, DSS officials approached the couple about adopting a second child. Their families would like them to bring a little girl into their home, Bryant said.
"There are times at 3 a.m., I realize why most people have children in their 20s," said Bryant, 46. Sadick [50] said the couple simply wants to enjoy the time they spend with Christian right now, but will consider adopting an older child through DSS in the future. [emphasis added]
Well, there are lots of heterosexual couples in their 20s and 30s dying to adopt a little child. But they are routinely passed over.
The DSS is another Massachusetts institution gone awry. Adoption is just one area they've mucked up. Breaking up families is another of their specialities. Check out the interview with Atty. Greg Hession on the MassResistance radio show (August 12/13), and his web site www.MassOutrage.com for more DSS horror stories. From his web site:
... so many clients have endured outrageous mistreatment at the hands of DSS agents and victim-witness advocates. To accomplish their ends, they use false allegations, and exploit the fact that the court system has abandoned due process of law (which means our constitutionally protected procedural rights such as jury trials, opportunity to be heard promptly, the rules of evidence, innocent until proven guilty, etc.).
Those who commit these outrages know that the system is biased in their favor, and that they can count on help from judges, guardians ad litem, and therapists. Many of them have adopted an agenda which is anti-family, without understanding the problems it causes. Some are merely afraid to stand as a bulwark against tyranny. Either way, children and harmed, and families torn apart needlessly.

Mass. DSS Promoting "Gender Identity Disorder" in Children?
Read more about Reps. Malia and Walsh at the Waltham House (from Bay Windows, "A Port in the Storm," 8/12/04). Excerpts:

Rep. Liz Malia at Drag Queen Pageant
State Rep. Liz Malia, FAR LEFT (D - Boston/Jamaica Plain) at the Miss Mass Gay Latina drag queen pageant this past June, part of "Boston Pride." Her drag queen friend, name unknown, above. [All photos from InNewsWeekly.]
State Rep. Liz Malia is one of our least favorite legislators. She was instrumental in halting Gov. Romney's feeble attempt to disband the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth last May, and she was the Rep who called for a second vote to overturn his veto of the dangerous new independent "Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth" in July.
And what exactly is the "lifestyle" Rep. Malia wants to encourage our troubled youth to participate in? We can get an idea from her own "celebration" during "Boston Pride" week this past June. In some capacity, she attended a stenchy drag queen pageant during Pride, according to photos published by InNewsWeekly.
Is Malia the sort of person we want setting policy in our schools? Is this what the Massachusetts Legislature should be promoting as acceptable for our youth? Remember: this crossdressing-transgender-transsexual scene is a routine aspect of the GLBT world that the new "Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth" will be promoting as healthy and normal. The current commission director has announced their intention to add "Bisexual and Transgender" to its name -- and what better expression of "transgenderism" is there than a drag queen pageant???
Even the terribly compromised American Psychiatric Association still lists this sort of behavior as a disorder in its diagnostic manual: see "Gender Identity Disorder" in the DSM-IV. Yet our state government is supporting and promoting it among our youth!
Some other scenes from the pageant [photos from InNewsWeekly]:

Romney's Leadership Still Lacking on Education
Statewide pre-kindergarten programs? Is there any mystery what this is all about? Obviously Massachusetts pre-schoolers are in danger of learning their parents' moral and religious values. Something has to be done about that, and the solution is just what Mao, Lenin and Stalin prescribed: indoctrination beginning at age three. That should take care of those intolerant religious folks and their morality!
When will our side get it? This is no badminton match. This is total war. War for everything. There is no stopping point. The fanatical sexual revolutionaries, homofascists, and their enablers want all or nothing. "All" includes your children and your grandchildren and their civilization. Many pre-schools are already indoctrinating children without the knowledge of their parents. I know of specific examples. How long will it be before such programs are mandatory?
Unfortunately, vetoing such a bill is not nearly enough. Seizing the issue and warning parents and voters about what their legislators have in mind is what Romney would do if he were a conservative, or a man -- or even a real Mormon.
See the State House News Service report ("Democrats criticize Romney's veto of pre-K," 8/10/06):
Top lawmakers lashed out Monday at Gov. Mitt Romney's veto of a pre-kindergarten education bill, as Lt. Gov. Kerry Healey's gubernatorial campaign defended what a top Romney adviser conceded was a politically difficult position.
The co-chairs of the Legislature's Committee on Education [Sen. Antonioni and Rep. Haddad -- both favoring the Planned Parenthood/GLBT agenda for our schools] said they hoped the House and Senate return later this year in formal sessions to try to override the veto of a Department of Early Education and Care bill, although both conceded they were unaware of any such plans.
"I don't think he really understands what this legislation was meant to do. [We agree!] It's the next step in refining that department," said House Education Committee chair Patricia Haddad (D-Somerset), who called the bill a guidebook for a state effort to furnish universal access to pre-kindergarten education.
Romney vetoed the bill Friday, after lawmakers had rejected his plan to change the bill by cutting out the language to expand state commitments for pre-K education. Rather than commit immediately to what he said could be a $1 billion-plus per year hit to taxpayers, Romney encouraged waiting for the results, due next February, of a $4.6 million pilot program provided for in this year's budget....
The legislation avoided both pinning a cost on the program and identifying a revenue source - in part, Haddad said, because the bill instructed the department to conceive of a five-year plan, with subsequent details to be worked out based on that blueprint. "We can't talk about a revenue source until we know what the actual cost is going to be," Haddad said....
A spokesman for House Speaker Salvatore DiMasi said in an e-mailed statement that Romney's veto meant Romney had "flipped his position" since 2004, when he signed the law creating the [early education] department.

Who Controls the Massachusetts Legislature?
Right: "Gay" lobbyist Bill Conley (in center) giving marching orders to Representatives including David Linsky (on right) of Natick. Linsky filed a bill in the last session to decriminalize bestiality (and sodomy).
For years, Bill Conley (lobbyist for MGLPC and MassEquality) has been a favorite visitor to DiMasi's office. Conley, recently arrested for soliciting UMass college boys for oral sex, continued to lobby at the State House through July -- for weeks after his arrest -- against the marriage referendum and for homosexual programs in our public schools. And DiMasi was guest of honor at a Back Bay fundraiser for MGLPC (which pays Conley's salary) -- almost three weeks after Conley's arrest.
And did Speaker DiMasi give Grace a little peck on the cheek after her talk?

Who Is Patrick Guerriero?
Mass. Homosexual Lobbyists: Conley, Shapiro, Isaacson: Bay Windows, the Boston "gay" newspaper, recently identified Guerriero (above) as part of the GLBT lobbying team in the Massachusetts State House. He joins these three (left): Bill Conley (recently arrested for solicitation); Norma Shapiro of the ACLU; Arline Isaacson, who works for both the MGLPC and teachers' union (MTA). [Team Photo: Bay Windows.]
In the aftermath of Bill Conley's arrest for solicitation, the GLBT lobby is discussing what it can get away with, and to what extent it needs to regroup. Bay Windows reports that a major new player will be joining the team: Patrick Guerriero, formerly head of the national Log Cabin Republicans, former Mass. State Rep, and former mayor of Melrose. (He was also chosen by Acting Governor Jane Swift to be her running mate for Lt. Gov., though Mitt Romney stepped in and that team never ran.)
Guerriero has just been named Executive Director of the Gill Action Fund which, according to Wikipedia, "was created in August of 2005 from the political donations of Colorado gay millionaire Tim Gill, to coordinate activities with gay rights and other allied organizations, and to embark in activities that the tax code prohibits the nonprofit Gill Foundation from performing. Gill has donated over 100 million dollars (US) to LGBT causes, either directly or through the [Gill] Foundation."
"Basically this entity will become one of the largest funders of LGBT political work in the nation," said Guerriero, who was no doubt hired in part due to his connections in this state. Now the Gill Foundation's MILLIONS will pour into the all-important Massachusetts GLBT beachhead, focusing not only on the "marriage" issue, but also on the homosexual programs in the schools.
In fact, the wording of the law establishing the new independent "Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth" specifically allows for outside, private funding of its activities. (This is in contrast to usual government agencies or school departments, whose allocations are regulated by elected representatives, giving the voters/taxpayers some control.)
From Bay Windows, "MassEquality, Caucus ponder next moves" (8-10-06):
The MassEquality coalition was formed to preserve equal marriage rights in Massachusetts after the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court issued its ruling in the Goodridge marriage lawsuit. Isaacson, who has more than two decades of experience lobbying on Beacon Hill, oversees the team of lobbyists working on marriage equality. Until two weeks ago, Conley, as the only full-time lobbyist working on LGBT issues, formed the core of the lobby team. During an interview with Bay Windows early this year for a story on MassEquality’s lobbying efforts, Isaacson said that Conley spent “99 percent” of his time at the State House working on marriage equality. [They're definitely underplaying the time Conley spent lobbying for homosexual education and youth outreach programs.]
In addition to Isaacson, who works as a lobbyist for the Massachusetts Teachers Association, the other core member of the lobby team is Norma Shapiro, who is the legislative director for the Massachusetts chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union. This week, Isaacson said that other members of her team include MassEquality’s Solomon, Ann Lambert, who is a lobbyist for the ACLU, Holly Gunner, a board member of the ACLU and Patrick Guerriero, who is leaving his post as president of the Log Cabin Club at the end of this month to work for the Colorado-based Gill Foundation.

Heather Has 2 Moms and 3 Dads
Are Americans so pummeled by "homosexual marriage" that they don't even care that polygamy and polyamory are poised to make the same demands for legal and educational recognition? Elizabeth Marquardt, author of recent book on the impact of divorce on children, reviews some of the behind-the-scenes push for "poly rights." See "Two mommies and a daddy: The future of polygamy" (The Christian Century, July 25).
She points us to the Unitarian Universalists for Polyamory Awareness, which writes: "UUPA defines polyamory as the philosophy and practice of loving or relating intimately to more than one other person at a time with honesty and integrity. UUPA is an independent organization, not affiliated with the Unitarian Universalist Association."
Marquardt also mentions the Polyamory Society, whose web site has a page on Poly Children's education. (The language strikes us as very like what our Massachusetts government is now using to protect "GLBT teens.") The polyamorists seek to "create or expand public policies that serve the best interests of PolyChildren." The needs and rights of poly children must be protected! On what grounds can our public schools deny a place to the poly storybooks such as Heather has 2 Moms and 3 Dads, Homie the Cat and his Family, and The Magical Power of Mark's Many Parents. This is a "time of transition from the monogamously dominated paradigm to consensually open relationships integration into mainstream culture."
Get ready!

Macy's Supports Boston Pride ... and Manhunt.net?

Background Checks on GLBT Activists Working with Teens?
Ch. 385 of the Acts of 2002, Section 1 amends Sec. 6 of the Mass. General Laws as follows: "Sec. 172H : ... any entity or organization primarily engaged in providing activities or programs to children 18 years of age or less that accepts volunteers, shall obtain all available criminal offender record information from the criminal history systems board prior to accepting any person as a volunteer."
So MassResistance asks: Have all those adults working with our children through the GLBT activist programs focused on youth -- GLSEN, PFLAG, BAGLY, Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth members, etc., and volunteers attending their events -- complied with this CORI regulation? Was Bill Conley, member of the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth, for instance, required to have a CORI check before he spent all that time with children participating in Youth Pride, most of whom were under 18? What about all those other volunteers at Youth Pride? GLSEN's annual conferences, PFLAG events, BAGLY meetings -- all involve many children under 18. Who is monitoring these staff and volunteers working unsupervised with vulnerable youth?
At a GLSEN conference we attended some years ago, we encountered young men in their 20s who were clearly cruising for young companions. It's not just what they're handing out at these conferences (e.g., the Little Black Book), it's who's attending and striking up acquaintances with the kids.
“We know that our detractors will continue to mischaracterize and misrepresent what we do and who we are,” says Haley [GLSEN Boston director, after admitting they handed out the Little Black Book to children]. “We have always had a screening process for all the materials [but what about the people?] that enter; we are redoubling our effort in that regard to be sure that all materials on table and elsewhere are age-appropriate.” Haley also notes that every workshop will be monitored for safety and age-appropriate content. Security [to keep out pro-family observers!] will also be on hand at the event. “We are doing everything we can possibly think of to create the safest most appropriate day of learning that we can,” Haley says. (See "Register for next GLSEN conference," Bay Windows, 4-20-06. And we may ask, WHY is Bay Windows encouraging its readers to register for the GLSEN conference???)
BAGLY's website (Boston Alliance of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Youth) says, "All of our meetings are facilitated by young people 22 and under." It's the adult staff and miscellaneous volunteers we wonder about there. We know from his own writing that an extremist "gay" attack blogger and his "husband" chaperoned at the BAGLY queer/trans prom at Boston City Hall in 2005. (This man was on the credits for a gay porn film -- don't know if it was soft or hard... haven't seen it yet. Hey Buddy, send me a copy! -- Look for the "Boom Boom Boy" in Hooking Up.)
What about the "mentoring" opportunities" listed by the "Friends of the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth"?
The idea of the law is to protect the children of this state. Is it all just a sham? See MGL, Ch. 28A, Sec. 1: "It is hereby declared to be the policy of the commonwealth to assure every child a fair and full opportunity to reach his full potential by providing and encouraging services which strengthen family life and support families in their essential function of nurture for a child’s physical, social, educational, moral, and spiritual development. Every child shall be entitled to the full protection of the commonwealth."
Who is defining "moral and spiritual development" for our children? Mr. Bill Conley?

Arrested Gay Lobbyist Conley's Role on Youth Commission?
What role did William Conley -- the lead State House lobbyist for the GLBT crowd -- play as member of the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth? Did he agree with inviting dangerous adults and groups who "volunteered" at "Youth Pride" days, for instance? (Note that Conley is one of the men standing on the State House steps with the Commission banner, cheering children on at the 2005 Youth Pride parade.)
Now that Conley's arrest for solicitation of college boys has hit the news, is Prince Jarrett Barrios (a.k.a. Senator Fluff) still planning to seat him as a member of the new independent Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth? Clearly, Conley has the needed expertise.
- PUMP (a support group for young male prostitutes, many who are HIV/AIDS patients).
- Lambda Car Club -- "gay" antique car lovers ("Boys with their Toys," shouts their home page with a man's naked rear as their logo), who were volunteering to drive the youth participants around.
- GenderCrash, advocating transgender/transsexual madness.
- Assorted volunteers rounded up by Bay Windows, Boston Pride, Jesuit Urban Center (well-known "gay" hangout claiming to be a Catholic church), etc.
The point is that people like Conley in the radical GLBTQIP movement think all these groups and audiences are legitimate, and OK to connect with our children. And that putting kids in touch with such people helps prevent suicides!

"Gay" Lobbyist Arrested for Solicitation Was Member of Gay/Lesbian Youth Commission
What kind of person is chosen to serve on the Commission for Gay and Lesbian Youth?
Bill Conley, recently arrested for solicitation of college boys, is head GLBT lobbyist at the State House. Conley has been a proud member of the Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth. And now, we assume, he will hold his head up high as a member of the new INDEPENDENT Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth.
They're so full of "PRIDE" . . . these people know no SHAME.

Prominent "Gay" Lobbyist Arrested for Solicitation of College Boys
We've published a photo showing Conley standing on the State House steps with the "Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth" banner on "Youth Pride" day. The adults running the GLBT political groups are certainly working hard to find fresh meat.
Conley is often seen prancing around the State House as if he owned the place. Why, we just ran into him in a Rep's office a few weeks back (after his arrest!) pushing for the new, independent, unconstitutional "Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth." Always dressed immaculately in a business suit, he conveys respectability to the max. His testimonies pushing homosexual indoctrination in the schools are quietly confident. At the hearing on the marriage amendment in May, he stood at the front of the hearing room near the Legislators' panel, acting as MC to the hearing, ushering his people to the table at just the right moment, using his height and clean-cut image to intimidate. Apparently, the stress of this role-playing builds up and he has a tremendous need to access "oral relief" (see story below).
This is the person whose salary House Speaker DiMasi helped raise at the MGLPC fundraiser a few nights ago!
From the Herald article:
A Springfield man busted in an alleged attempt to solicit sex from University of Massachusetts students in return for cash is a paid lobbyist for a pro-gay marriage advocacy group. William G. Conley, a lobbyist for the Massachusetts Gay & Lesbian Political Caucus, was arrested by UMass police after allegedly posting a message on the Internet bulletin board Craigslist.com offering work to a college student.
Conley, 59, allegedly replied in an e-mail to an undercover cop posing as a student that he was willing to pay $50-$150 for “oral relief,” according to a report in The Republican of Springfield. Police arranged a meeting and arrested Conley on July 8. ...
