The parliament of Tasmania agreed to approve of same sex marriages and civil unions of all countries and other Australian states.
attorney general Lara Giddings said, “This is really a small step, but a significant and important step for those people who have registered or been through a civil union process elsewhere around the world and want us to recognise that relationship as indeed being in existence.”
Today marks the day, when in 1963, MLK gave his famous speech. He is best remembered by the extraordinary presence he made everywhere he went and still to this day leaves an impact on all our lives.
Glenn Beck is rallying to ‘give back America to God’… we think God would probably state, who does this guy think he is Beware of false profits! While Beck openly stated that he is actually supportive of same-sex marriage. He still has speakers at his rally that are anti-Gay, such as, sorry to say-the niece of Martin Luther King, Jr., Alveda King who openly stated that she is anti-Gay, even though her legendary uncle’s right hand man, Bayard Rustin, was the co-organizer of THE REAL rally for Civil Rights was openly Gay. MLK believed that justice delayed is justice denied.
Honestly, we don’t feel this rally has any heart, but it seems to be a sad, tangental recreation of a movement that states that we need to take back America. Just because you talk loud does not mean people are going to listen. Talk is cheap.
We can ‘take America back’ by educating ourselves and each other. To teach the correct history, and create a better union, our country can prosper. You know what? Watch a real rally
