Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...

Those Soulforce Equality Riders sure do have a knack of getting arrested. Twelve activists have been nabbed by coppers after protesting Baptist Reverend Albert Mohler's recent remarks on detecting and reversing prenatal homosexuality:
If a biological basis is found, and if a prenatal test is then developed, and if a successful treatment to reverse the sexual orientation to heterosexual is ever developed, we would support its use as we should unapologetically support the use of any appropriate means to avoid sexual temptation and the inevitable effects of sin.In an effort to induce an apology, the Riders staged a sit-in at Mohler's Lousiville, Kentucky-based Southern Baptist Theological Seminar office. Though ten left after a half-hour, twelve stood strong. That is, until the strong arm of the law got to them.
Meanwhile, RiderKyle DeVries got collared after protesting at Mississippi College after taking "four steps," according to his account. Once released, the riders again hit the road, only to be stopped by coppers who warned them to "get out of town" "The final time the officer interacted with the bus driver he threatened to arrest him if he did not follow his order." When the protesters suggested the cops may be infringing on their constitutional rights, the flatfoots told them they were a "safety concern".
And, on Friday, members were jailed for chalking peaceful messages at Baylor University.
It's good to know these good American "Christians" have so much love, no? Especially when the Riders are there to celebrate their God's love for all mankind.

Kentucky state Senator Dick Roeding isn't really sorry for calling the Log Cabin Republicans "a bunch of queers." For the record, it is a true statement, but an inappropriate one for some shriveled-up little straight man to be flinging around.
When the University of Kentucky expanded health benefits to non-married gay and straight domestic partners, Sen. Roeding was worried the new rule would attract the "wrong kind of people." Again, he is not sorry.
He did issue a second-hand sort-of apology through a third party, but that isn't good enough for anyone, especially the Log Cabins, who refuse to accept it until he apologizes in person.
When asked if he has apologized to the Log Cabins, Sen. Roeding snarkily replied, "I haven't met one."
Even if you're not a Log Cabin Republican, it's probably about time Dick Roeding met you if you're bothered by this news. You can email him or call him at home at this number: 859-331-1684
