What's going on, seems to be the question everyone in the nation is asking when it comes to the state of Indiana. The guy above is Gov. Mike Pence and he signed into law SB101 The Religious Freedom Restoration Act that legalized discrimination against the citizens of Indiana, namely, the LGBT population. But, after a corporate and social backlash, like no other, he pushed and signed an amendment stating that gays and lesbians could not be discriminated against. Problem is, this only protects counties where gays and lesbians are a protected minority class. Corporate giants like Salesforce INC and Angie's List threatened to halt growth, in the state, if this bill wasn't fixed.
I bet you all didn't know at one point Lois Lane turned black for a hot second. Well, Yes ma'am she did. She went from Audrey Hepburn to Foxy Brown by way of Superman's transformation machine. This was a 70's comic from the Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane series (issue 106). This particular issued tackled race relations in the late 60's and early 70's. And Lois transforms into a black woman to see how it feels t be a black person. (I Am Curious..Black). I went on a search for this comic today and came up empty handed. The reason I wanted this book was because It's very unique and it was on Comic Book Men recently. I will find it!

Have you heard the latest Celebrity that has gone around gay bashing? Well, let's not say celebrity. I give Snooki more celebrity cred than this asshole. He is none other than Juan Pablo Galavis, The Bachelor from the ABC reality show. He says gays couldn't be on the bachelor because we are too "pervert" and not right for kids to be watching on television. I mean what parent allows their children and more specifically young girls watch this women degrading show anyway? He has a lot of nerve. Listen in to what else I had to say about the bachelor. Also, on today's episode I revisit my a bonus episode about Facebook and Funerals.  |

Well I doubt if anyone goes to Evander Holyfield for words of wisdom. But, one person did on Big Brother Celebrity UK. Speaking of a gay cast mate, Evander went on an almost intelligible rant on how being homosexual is a choice. And that's fine. He can say what he wants. But, is that what is wrong with society now? We persecute people who have opinion? NOT AT ALL! Just like I said previously about the Duck Dynasty Phil Robertson-gate. No one is taking away Evander's freedom of speech. Because, in fact, they already used it. Albeit, the producers of the show scolded him on hate speech. My only problem is people seem to be invested and follow the words of celebrities. And for me that is the bigger problem . How do we combat it? We can't! We can take away their platform. We can lecture them how to speak more thoughtfully. But, then the world turns on it's head and accuses the accusers of being too sensitive. All we can hope is that people who genuinely think for themselves, do just that THINK FOR THEMSELVES! And doesn't Holyfield have about 1000 children (one of which came to his defense today) all living on the same property in Fayettville, GA somewhere? I would be more concerned about those needs than trying to throw your wisdom into the gay choice debate.
