Massresistance Thinks It's Reasonable to Hit Another Person

For what seems like the umpteenth time, Massresistance is a day late and a dollar short. They now have on their website their version of why a woman, who attacked a man at the Constitutional Convention, was arrested. It's only how many days since the ConCon? Did it take that long to fabricate this story?

Diane was peaceably standing on the pro-family side of the street with her son, inside the blue police barricade. Her sign (see below) was provocative but nothing like the hate-filled anti-Christian signs the homosexual activists were waving. Even a little dissent isn't tolerated.


I guess the hate filled signs our side was carrying which said stuff like "No discrimination in the Constitution" and "Equal Rights for All", are, you know, really those anti-Christian type of signs.


Then all of a sudden someone started talking to her and she slapped him, but of course, we set it all up. Our side took her hand and forcibly hit the man she was arguing with or better yet, maybe the man just pushed his head into her hand, kinda like what they also claimed when Larry Cirignano assaulted that woman in Worcester:

It's very clear that they set her up. Soon after the vote was announced, homosexual rights supporter Jack Kirschenbaun of Malden went across the street and stood right next to her. A friend was standing right in front of them. Kirschenbaun began a vicious attack against Diane. "Why do you hate so much," he started out, and it went on from there non-stop, without allowing Diane to even reply. Then it got sexual. "Are you a virgin?" he shouted at her. "Have you ever had an orgasm."

At that point, Diane slapped him. "I wasn't really thinking about it," she said later. "It was just an instinctive reaction." It sounds reasonable to us.

(Does this legally constitute a sexual harassing verbal assault? The police weren't even interested. Also, the son was apparently several yards away and didn't hear the incident.) Did she ask the police? And why wasn't she watching her 9 year old son? Don't you think if she actually believed what she wrote on her sign then she wouldn't have even brought her son to be around, GASP, GAY people!


Let me repeat what they said when they heard that a woman violently attacked another human: IT SOUNDS REASONABLE TO US. Oh, really?! Massresistance is now OK with physical violence. For future reference, when Amy gets in your face and starts asking you about "Cum vomit", according to Massresistance, it is perfectly reasonable to slap her and claim it was just an instinctive reaction. Of course it is probably instinctual if you're prone to violence, WHICH IS AGAINST THE LAW.


I'll leave you with one last picture of the "petite" Diane Steele, look closely at the picture, what do you think she's saying? I wonder if her 9 year old son was nearby to see his slap happy mom get taken away? Give it up for Pro-family values.

Congrats New Hampshire!

New Hampshire will become the first state to adopt civil unions for gay and lesbian couples without a court order or the threat of one:

The Senate passed the bill 14-10 on straight party lines, Democrats in favor, Republicans against.

"I'm kind of am speechless," said Democratic state Rep. Bette Lasky, who shepherded civil unions through the House. "I'm delighted this is the result and I'm proud of both the House and Senate for upholding New Hampshire's tradition of advancing minority rights."

The bill goes to Gov. John Lynch, who announced last week he will sign it.
"This legislation is a matter of conscience, fairness and of preventing discrimination," said Lynch spokesman Colin Manning.

It was only a few short years ago when Vermont adopted civil unions. There was supposed to be a huge backlash against the people who voted for it but it didn't happen. In NH, like VT there are some lawmakers trying to confuse the people:

"Let's just call it what it really is, no sugarcoating," said Republican Sen. Robert Letourneau, of Derry. "This creates same-sex marriage. There is no right to marriage in either the New Hampshire Constitution or the federal Constitution."

"We don't let blind people drive or felons vote, all for good and obvious reasons," he said.


Good and obvious reasons? The NH legislature voted to give the people civil unions, not civil marriage! By the way Senator, blind people can hunt in over 14 states.

Don't you think Senator Letourneau should list exactly what those good and obvious reasons are?

Massachusetts Institute Against Gays

The editor of Bay Windows wrote a very poignant piece last week about the Massachusetts "Family" Institute (MFI). As an aside, I have always listed them with Family in quotes because MFI does not care about the family however, Susan Ryan-Vollmar has hit the nail on the head:

Honestly, what is the Massachusetts Family Institute doing for families in Massachusetts? If you click on the “Issues in Focus” link on the MFI website, you’ll get their 10 priorities for “strengthening the family”: dealing with child abuse, cohabitation, gambling, pornography, media violence, Internet safety and statutory rape; promoting marriage; strengthening parental rights; and fighting same-sex marriage. MFI, remarkably, manages to blame LGBT people as the cause — either directly or indirectly — of at least five of their issues: child abuse, cohabitation, pornography, strengthening parental rights and, of course, same-sex marriage. It’s remarkable that a political movement claiming to care about families and children spends more time and talent demonizing LGBT people than actually working for families and children.


Her last paragraph inspired me to change the link to them (and all future references to them):
There’s no question that families with children, particularly those at lower-income levels, need strong advocates working for them. Access to quality health care, child care and public education are crucial issues facing us all. Given what little work the Massachusetts Family Institute does in this regard, maybe they should change their name. The Massachusetts Institute Against Gays seems fitting.
