Who is Linda Harvey?

Because she's made as hell and isn't going to take it anymore! Linda is an anti-gay activist. She was supposed to appear at MassResistance's "forum" last year when Acton-Boxborough High school was putting on the "Laramie Project". Linda also signed MassResistance's letter last year criticizing Mitt Romney.

She, like Brian Camenker, founded and is the head of her own anti-gay organization "Mission America". What qualifies her to lead a ministry against homosexuality? Well, she's got a BA in English and experience in journalism, marketing and public relations that's what!

Well, it seems Mrs. Harvey is upset that Box Turtle Bulletin posted her picture on their website (I think she needs to chat with MassResistance and exchange notes about posting pictures):

I guess the whole thing started when Box Turtle Bulletin posted her rantings about the Day of Silence and exposed her:

She claims that “Child molestation is an everyday occurrence because of the increased access homosexuals have to our children” and advocates banning gay people from teaching (a position so radical that Ronald Reagan opposed it in 1978).

She claims that the vast majority of gay people are only employed sporadically due to their instability.

She believes that HIV is “almost exclusively a homosexual male and drug addict epidemic” and advocates that “gay social establishments should close until HIV rates are seriously reduced”.

She claims that for a Pastor to believe that gay persons can be Christian “is deliberate rebellion against God’s word and His created order of male/female genders and marriage.”

It's always nice when "Christians" feel the need to take on God's work and judge others. Thanks to Box Turtle Bulletin for keeping up with this and Pam's House Blend for catching my attention to it.

7 Months and Still Counting

MassResistance is still teasing us their sidebars:

It has now been over 7 months since we've heard the monotone duo over the airwaves. (However, you can catch a horrendous video of Brian Camenker on Fox News over at their website. It's very dreadful but this is what keeps them going, the potential of appearing on national TV)

Now I'm wondering if they'll ever be back on the air. What radio station would give a nationally recognized hate group any time (even paid time) to air their hate filled rantings? If you're new to this blog, MassResistance was named a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Alas, Saturdays are never the same!

BTW, if you're still getting their emails, send them along. They seemed to have left me off their email lists.

Silence Was Not Golden

Boston.com is reporting on a monument in Berlin to the tens of thousands of homosexuals persecuted under the Nazis, whose laws were used to prosecute gay men for a generation after World War Two:

Berlin mayor Klaus Wowereit, who is openly gay, hailed the grey, concrete memorial as a long overdue acknowledgement of the repression of homosexuals, 50,000 of whom were convicted by Nazi courts during Adolf Hitler's 12-year dictatorship.

"The monument consecrated today is a reminder to us of the horrors of the past and draws our attention to the degree of discrimination that currently exists," Wowereit said.

Of course there are still people in this country, who blame gay people for the atrocities that happened in Nazi Germany.

MassResistance Triumphs

MassResistance has finally had success in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts:

Mass. Senate spits on parents - unanimously approves huge funding increases for homosexual programs in schools. Even "good" senators caved in. Leadership
used sleazy maneuver to avoid debate. Homosexual lobby triumphs.

Their constant harassment of the Massachusetts State Senate has finally paid off. Just last week they were bragging at having people from OTHER COUNTRIES emailing, faxing and calling OUR state legislators.

Do you think the Massachusetts Legislature is now aware that MassResistance is a recognized hate group? YES! And I'm sure our State Legislators just experienced a little of bit the hatred that these bigots spew forth daily at GLBT people. I imagine that they overwhelming approved the increase in funding for at risk youth knowing that dangerous people like MassResistance are out there.

Thank you Brian and Amy. Keep up the good work.

Jeff Jacoby: Yawn!

Jeff Jacoby once again treads into the arena of Marriage Equality in California now (did his children already reach all their milestones?):

Reasonable men and women can disagree on whether same-sex unions should be granted legal recognition, or whether such recognition should rise to the level of marriage. The place to work out those disagreements is the democratic arena, not the courtroom.

He claims there are numerous reasons to override the California court's decision but humbly only give us three. When I read the above paragraph I laughed out loud since the California legislature has already sent to the Governor, not once, but twice, a marriage equality bill and the Governor vetoed it deferring to the upcoming Court's decision.

But more offensive is his continuing argument that same sex marriage is a slippery slope (has it happened here in Massachusetts now that same sex couples have been getting married for 4 YEARS? Maybe he's thinking of Utah or Texas which don't have marriage equality).

Society has a vested interest in promoting only traditional marriage.

Men and women are not interchangeable, and same-sex unions - no matter how devoted and enduring - cannot take the place of a married husband and wife. The essential function of marriage is to unite male and female. That is the only kind of union that can produce new life, and therefore the only kind of union in which society
has a survival stake.

Again with the "produce new life" BS. Marriage was about property Jeff, did you forget that, that's why society started it. Jeff, when only fertile, potential child bearing couples, who agree only to marry to have children are allowed to marry, then, I think you'd be able to make this argument. It's discrimination when an opposite sex couple who have just met are able to get married and reap the thousands of special benefits marriages entitles them to and a same sex couple, together for decades, for better or worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, and in most cases in death, get nothing.

MassResistance Still Taking Video of Youth Against their Will

MassResistance is presenting another dizzy video of Youth Pride last week. Since Brian and Amy have been outed as haters they can no longer show their anti-gay mugs around gay pride events without incident so they have another set of anti-gay videographers to stalk gay youth and photograph them.

If you have the stomach, I'd recommend you watch the video just so you can see how lame the video is. Of course, MassResistance is credited at the beginning of the video but they are apparently upset that they were pointed out at the rally.

I would also like to note how the people who were videotaping the rally lie to the youth. First they tell them they're recording a public event, they they say they're press, then they say their independent media and then they say that they're tourists. Yeah, that's the ticket! Although it's quite typical of them to lie about who they are.

As Massachusetts Goes, So Goes the Nation

Yes, now that California's court has ruled that all people are equal under the law, Mass Institute Against Gays is coming out of hiding (will they ever align with the nationally recognized hate group MassResistance?) But Governor Patrick said it best:

"Our experience in Massachusetts has taught us that whenever we affirm the right of people to come before their government as equals, we all win," Patrick said. "I congratulate the California court for upholding that principle."

Massachusetts is indeed a prime example of what happens when you give people equality. All the dire predictions people like Kris Mineau and Ron Crews (remember him?) made about the Commonwealth after Marriage Equality never happened.

Ironically, tomorrow is the fourth anniversary of Marriage Equality and all that has happened is more people are protected under the eyes of the law. We can be very proud.

This new ruling (by a majority of Republican appointed judges I might add) will mean the spotlight will be on Massachusetts once again and we can raise our head high and take heart in knowing that we lead the way.

BTW, while none of the presidential canidates support marriage equality, none of the candiates (Republican or Demoncratic) support the federal marriage amendment either!

Congrats California!

Who's Really Disconnected?

MassResistance is now touting that the Massachusetts Legislators are "disconnected". MassResistance is so far right that even conservative Republicans are dissing them and yet they say that the legislature is out of touch!!! ROFLMAO!

Commentary [Updated]:
What we must do now The Massachusetts Legislature really doesn't get it. These public officials are disconnected from reality. MassResistance

Oh, they also list the 10 (that's right, 10 legislators voted against increasing funding for at risk teens) Reps who appears to support them:

Rep.BradleyJones@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2100 Rep.JohnLepper@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2100

Rep.VinnydeMacedo@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2100
Rep.LewisEvangelidis@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2263
Rep.MaryRogeness@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2100
Rep.GeorgePeterson@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2100

Rep.JeffreyPerry@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2396
Rep.ElizabethPoirier@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2976

Rep.KarynPolito@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2230
Rep.DanielWebster@Hou.State.MA.US 617 722-2487

I'm not sure why these legislators voted against the funding, however, I would like to know if they support the MassResistance, the nationally recognized hate group. I feel a State House visit coming on! We've got some educating to do!

The Voice of the Hate Groups?

Ryan Sorba, he appears to be the savior of the young Republicans everywhere, well, at least according to radical Right.

MassResistance has been talking up his "book" on the born gay theory and tailing him so closely that...(you can use your own methaphor).

By now, some of you have heard about the demonstration at Smith College when Sorba spoken about his "upcoming" book (uncoming doesn't have a timeframe on it does it?) For the record, Ryan Sorba, has been trolling the country looking for the type of fight he got at Smith College for awhile. Here's an email he sent to me in 2006:

Hey Bud,
From: Ryan Sorba

From: COLLEGE REPUBLICANS amendcali@yahoo.com

To: gayboyscout@aol.com

Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 11:18 pm

Ryan Sorba here, from the conservative revolution! Hey, I read what you wrote about me on the internet, well, guess what.......? It turns out that I am in Mass. right now, -your home state! You sound quite sure of your pro-homosexual stance, so, I
challenge you to a full scale, public, academic debate! I will be in the Boston area until around Nov. 10th, organizing new conservative student groups on Boston college campus's. I am certain that one of these new groups would love to host the debate. Any time, any place, just let me know! You can email me at amendcali@yahoo.com with your response!

P.S. The conservative revolution is upon us!!!!!

Of course, I had never heard of this Sorba guy and did a search of my own blog to find out that someone had written in the comments section about him (shows how good his research really is huh!)

I did respond back:

Thanks but no thanks. I wouldn't debate anyone who can't even tell the difference between comments to a post and the post itself. I don't know or even care who you are. From a quick google search I might suggest you contact Massresistance.com since it appears you and they have a lot in common, namely, a tendency to twist the truth. Good luck on your recruiting, hope you get the toaster.

Bud

Wow, to think I may have brought these two together! Call me Dolly Levi! Of course as you would expect, he responded in a very professional manner:

Your just too chicken to engage in an academic debate with someone who knows the Kirk and Madsen, Karl Ulrich's, Jan Clausen, Audre Lorde, Lillian Faderman secrets of the homosexual political movement! Bak, Bak, Bak.......Bak, Bak, Bak.....

My book will be done in June! Then you will be forced to defend the lies that have been propagated by the homosexualist movement.

P.S. That was a good line about the toaster, but we are pretty heavily funded.

P.S. 2, Homosexualists all seem afraid to debate me, so, I guess I will just have to
give another speech on the "Born Gay" Hoax the Dangers of Homosexual Behavior,
and Natural Law..........and no one will be there to defend your views...oh
well, I tried.

Ryan

and one more response:

bak, bak, bak, too bad you know your wrong, and you are to afraid to debate!!!!!!!

Ryan,

So clearly, this person was searching for a fight. It's probably no coincidence that Ryan Sorba speaks before groups who are considered Hate groups by the Southern Poverty Law Center. MassResistance, who was doing PR for Sorba's "speech", was named a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center in 2008.

Finally, Ms. MassResistance Has Once Again Spoken

We were all wondering whether she had been kidnapped and taken away. Alas, our hopes were dashed when after being silent for a month, MassResistance reared its ugly heads to write about an "incident" at Smith College:

Yes, the homofascists would like our latest expose of the lesbian riot at Smith College last week to just go away (see the revealing videos.) . . . because it's about something much bigger than they want to admit. See Americans for Truth's eloquent explanation:

Of course this is exactly what Brian and Amy have been waiting for (the 4th anniversary of the legal same sex marriages is coming up and MassResistance has nothing to hold as an example of the anarchy going on in the Commonwealth!). They had kept pushing their "Gay Hoax Story" at Framingham State but they couldn't get their grubby little hands on any controversial footage to use. In fact this is what they had to say about that "speech":

As often happens at these kinds of speeches, it appeared that nearly all of the homosexual activists had never heard these arguments before. They were clearly affected by them. You could see the confusion (and a little anger) in their eyes as their ideological world was being taken apart. Plus, they were so used to dealing with this issue in an emotional and illogical way that they are rhetorically crippled when forced to deal on a logical and factual basis.

As usual, Brian and Amy can read people's minds and know what they were thinking, except, I guess at Smith College. The also show their ignorance by quoting from the UMass Amherst Republican Club. Apparently they must think that genital cutting is a good thing and isn't an important matter for people to know about. Should we cut them some slack because they are mentally challenged? And I wonder that the UMASS Republican Club thinks about being cheered on by a noted Hate Group?

Who's Not Obsessed with Homosexuals?

MassResistance's latest post last Thursday was about the Massachusetts legislative races. See what some of their "in depth analysis" consists of:

• "The homosexual lobby recruited"
• Sen. Scott Brown is being challenged by a wacky lesbian activist,
• showered with money by the homosexual lobby.
• homosexual-related issues
• The homo lobby

And they're still scratching their heads as to why the Southern Poverty Law Center named MassResistance a hate group:

Recently, the SPLC listed MassResistance as a "hate group" -- though we fail to meet their own definition of an organization "that [goes] beyond mere disagreement with homosexuality by subjecting gays and lesbians to campaigns of personal vilification.”

Well, after this Tuesday, the deadline for nomination papers for the Massachusetts legislature, it will be interesting to see which candidates support MassResistance's brand of hate and will come out and say that they support a nationally recognized hate group. In fact, I do believe it is an important question that all MassResistance's "good" candidates should be asked.

There's also been talk that MassResistance has been shopping a amendment to the budget to strip all State monies that goes to supporting gay or what they consider gay related issues but no legislator is biting. Ah, getting in bed with MassResistance is like the kiss of death.

Where Have All the Tallies Gone?

Well, it doesn't take MassResistance long to do somethings! I blogged on Friday about their fundraising, or should I say, lack of fundraising. Sure enough, today, April 14, they took down their tally board:

Alas, how will we every know if and when they reach their $150,000 fundraising goal?


Similarly, there is a post over at Pam's House Blend about Porno Pete and his failure to destroy the "Homosexual Agenda". "The Peter", as Pam calls him, is very much like MassResistance's Brian Camenker. Their biggest similarity outside of being obsessed with gay people, is that both Brian and Pete make their livings off of the gay community, or rather, at the expense of the gay community.

As we're seeing all over the country, it's not profitable anymore to go after the gays and these guys are lining their pockets with anti-gay money. So I'll end this post with a comment from the Blend about Pete's future:

He's gotta be worried sick about his funding drying up in the near future. I mean, where would someone with his background, lifelong homosexual investigator, find a job in the real world to support a family of 7?

MassResistance Fundraising Update

It looks like being named a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center has hurt MassResistance's profits, er, I mean fundraising. As of today, they list $46,032 as being raised since December (and it's been at 46,000 for awhile). Here's the tally I have so far:

Jan 9th: $13,000
Feb 3rd: $32,252
Feb 9th: $36,302
Feb 15th: $37,157
Mar 6th: $38,102
Apr 6th: $46,032

Of course, that's assuming that MassResistance is honest in their figures. I know, why would they start now. But then again, look at the bright side, every day that Brian and Amy is out there vilifying gay people brings more and more people to see how pathetic and ridiculous they are.

Lexington Superintendent Gets Threatened With Violence Over Diversity Program

WBZ, WHDH, and BayWindows are reporting that Lexington School Superintendent Paul Ash has been threatened with violence over a diversity program put together by the Lexington School committee and parents:

An Internet radio talk show host based out of New Jersey has threatened the superintendent of schools in Lexington over the new diversity curriculum in town.

He is urging listeners and readers of his Web site to use force and violence against Paul Ash.

The curriculum was designed because of the lawsuit that David Parker and the Wirthins brought against the town.


And it should be no surprise that David Parker has not condemned the threats against Ash (after all, he held up in an elementary school until police arrested him) and justified the anger:

Should there be a show of force against this, yes. But violence at this time is not the answer," Parker said.

Hmm..."violence at this time is not the answer", er, David, violence is NEVER the answer. And talking about same sex families is no more talking about sex than talking about opposite sex families.


Of course, MassResistance, a recognized hate group, has gotten into the act and instead of condemning the threats just whines about the media not taking supposed threats against the Parkers seriously (did they ever contact the police?), again, no talk about all threats being bad. Tsk, tsk.


Luckily, Superintendent Paul Ash will not give in to the threats of violence and intimidation by the right wing anti-gay bigots on this.

The Final "Successes" # 21, 22 & 23

Yes, we are in the home stretch! And now, the last of the "successes":

Number 21:

Host weekly radio show on WTTT 1150 AM Boston (Salem Radio Network), broadcast twice weekly and available on website, the only Boston media taking on controversial pro-family issues. (Oct. 2005-ongoing)

Make that the past tense, HOSTED. When they were kicked off the air they blamed Mitt Romney (go figure). They ended up at a radio station in Cambridge until they were gone from that one too. In both instances they had to pay the station to put them on the air. The Cambridge station made an announcement before and after their show which stated that the views of the show DID NOT reflect the radio station or it's managment. Their biggest audience appeared to be the gay community who played the MassResistance Drinking game, they took a drink every time Brian said "Oh man" on the air. Most of the audience was drunk within 5 minutes which made the show even more funnier.


Number 22:

Pro-family voice at conventions and conferences, most recently at Values Voters Conference (Washington, D.C., 3/06), Vermont Renewal (9/06), Christian Civic League of Maine (10/06).

They LOVE LOVE LOVE to call themselves "pro-family" yet they haven't actually helped any families. (If you have to call yourself "pro-family" it's because you're not and people just thing you're a hate group) It's no surprise that Brian would be on the anti-gay conference circuit. It was probably one of these conventions that brought them to the attention of the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Number 23:

Published nationally significant reports, "The Mitt Romney Deception" (recently discussed on the FoxNews "Brit Hume" national TV show) and "Mitt Romney: Father of Gay Marriage" which continue to reverberate on the national political and media scene. These reports explained Romney's liberal positions and actions over the years, and document his unconstitutional directives to his Dept. of Public Health, Justices of the Peace, and Town Clerks throughout Massachusetts which began same-sex "marriages" in 2004. (Nov. 2006-ongoing)

"Nationally significant reports" LOL. They published nationally significant reports like I publish this blog, online and no one reads them. Their delusions are both funny AND sad. Real conservatives think they're crazy.

Well, that's the mile long version of all the "good" things that MassResistance claims to do. I'd write more but I'm working on a MAJOR PROJECT, which is underway.

MassResistance "Successes" #18, 19 & 20

In a note to Wikipedia, Brian Camenker said:

MassResistance has done literally hundreds of things that could be mentioned. We could have a list of things a mile long.

yet they only list 23 "successes" on their website, I guess bandwidth is expensive.

Number 18:

Successfully pressured Gov. Romney to veto funding of homosexual programs in schools put in FY 2007 state budget, through national grassroots action. (July 2006)

See "Success #11", Romney, running for President, turns hard right, nothing to do with MassResistance, you get the picture.

Number 19:

Focused Gov. Romney's attention on excesses of "Governor's Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth," which caused Romney to begin process to disband it, but unfortunately he reversed his decision when pressured by GLBT activists. (May 2006)

See #18 above, Oh, and how is this a success since it was reversed? Oh, I guess it's a success because they focused Romney's attention on it!

Number 20:

Successfully lobbied Legislators to sustain Gov. Romney's veto of the dangerous new independent "Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth" (one of only a few of his vetoes to be upheld in the Legislature), through grassroots action. Unfortunately, through subsequent arm-twisting tactics by the Speaker, it was later overturned. (July 2006)

Now this an example of twisted logic: they successfully lobbied Legislators --> Veto supposedly upheld? --> But it was overturned. How is this a success? Could someone please explain their logic because my head hurts.

You know, after reading all the things that Romney supposedly did because of MassResistance, I'm surprised that they keep attacking him so much for not being anti-gay. But then again, these were happier times:



Such a handsome couple, it's a shame the marriage didn't work out.

MassResistance "Successes" #15, 16, & 17

They are just so successful it's blinding:

Number 15:

Exposed "Youth Pride" and BAGLY "trans" Prom, and Boston Pride events including children, partly funded with taxpayer money. (2005, 2006)

Once again, what exactly did MassResistance expose? It has never been a secret! There is a Youth Pride parade through the streets of downtown Boston, schools from all over the Commonwealth participate. The BAGLY Prom is held in Boston's City Hall. (My husband and I chaperoned at one of the BAGLY proms. I did hear that there was some crazy woman snapping photos of the teens as they were lining up to get in and even tried to crash the party.

And what's with this "Boston Pride events including children" thing. Yeah...there are LOTS of gay parents and they take their children out to events, like Gay Pride. There has been so many children that the event organizers have a small area for parents and their tykes.

Number 16:

Documented and publicized homosexual radicals' riot outside Focus on the Family's "Love Won Out" conference at Tremont Temple Baptist Church in Boston. (Oct. 2005)

Out of all the news media in Boston: Channel 4, 5, 7 and local cable news, MassResistance just happened to be the ONLY people who thought it was a riot, the police didn't even have second thoughts. (MassResistance also didn't consider it a riot then either, read their take where they call it a "near-riot", I guess that doesn't bring the money in like just plain ole riot) Again, what MassResistance doesn't tell you was that there was a Peace March that same day and some of the people marched outside of the anti-gay conference. They also don't tell you that the MassResistance "reporter" was yelled at by police because she was practically inciting a riot with her photography. I wrote about it here when it happened.

Number 17:

Pressured Macy's Department Store to remove Boston Pride promotion in "transsexual mannequins" window display, through massive grassroots action. This incident made the national and international media -- as far away as Australia and London. (June 2006)

The famous mannequin debacle! This has really got to be the funniest of the intimidation tactics that MassResistance/Article 8 has employed over the past few years. This crazy group was upset because of mannequins, AND they actually went through the store and took photos of "normal" mannequins to prove their point that the mannequins in the window were transgender, believe it or not. Of course, they wouldn't print the apology that Macy's wrote to Boston's gay community when Macy's themselves said they removed the mannequins due to miscommunication and not pressure from any group.

PFLAG 6th Annual Pride and Passion Party

PFLAG is holding the its annual Pride and Passion Party over at the Boston Hyatt Hotel on April 20th at 6:30 PM. All proceeds from this important event will support the Safe Schools and Communities Project:

The event will feature really fine food and drink, live entertainment, a fabulous live and silent auction and an awards ceremony for the winners of the 2008 Elsie Frank Scholarships.

This year's Distinguished Leadership Award will be presented to the Greater Boston Business Council. TV Channel 5 News anchor David Brown will be our Master of Ceremonies. Novelist Robert Parker and his wife Joan, and Chad and Anne Gifford, are serving as Honorary Co-Chairs for the event. We look forward to seeing you.

Fabulous Silent and Live Auctions include an African Safari and a Tuscany Vacation.

Sounds like a blast. You can get more information here. Last year's event was sold out!

Side Note: Do you think the MassResistance's annual banquets they claim to hold has fabulous auction items too? I still question whether such function even exist since they never show any pictures (which is odd for two people who obsess with taking pictures at every gay event). You would also think that their attendees, if they are real, would be proud to be associated with an organization that was named a Hate Group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

MassResistance "Successes" #13 & 14

Oh the things they dwell on:

Forced major advertising company, ClearChannel, to take down homosexual pornographic billboard over major street in Cambridge one day after lots of our activists contacted them. (2005)

I wrote about this earlier too. If I remember correctly, the billboard was coming down in a few days anyway, so once again Article 8 took credit for it's removal. They obsessed over what the two men were doing under the flag. I like to say that they take credit for the sun rising and setting everyday.

Pressured supermarket chain to remove sexually graphic homosexual newspaper from stores, and the newspaper management to remove pornographic personal ads from print edition. (2004)

Note to people in Massachusetts, go to your supermarket and see if you can find BayWindows, yep, it's still there. Funny how they also take credit for "pressuring newspaper management to remove pornographic personal ads from their print edition" since the newspaper was already in the process of doing that before MassResistance's hissy fit. They posted the locations of all the BayWindows newspaper boxes on their blog and blamed it on gay marriages. Ironically, they quote BayWindows extensively in their "Mitt Romney Deception Report", not bad for a "pornographic newspaper".



Oh look, the sun's rising, I'm so glad MassResistance is on the ball!

Open Letter to Wikipedia

Thanks to a reader, I came across the following entry from Brian Camenker to Jacob of Wikipedia:

Joshua,
I don't think you understand what's going on. There are three main issues:
1. The person who keeps changing my page is a homosexual activist who maintains this website: http://asolis.net/2007/11/legalization-of-homosexual-marriage/ This site is extremely hateful; the person is not an unbiased editor.

2. MassResistance has done literally hundreds of things that could be mentioned. We could have a list of things a mile long. We have been praised by lots of well-known people such as Alan Keyes and Michael Reagan, for instance. We've also been called bad things by homosexual activists. To pick a small sample of negative things does everyone a disservice.

3. Southern Poverty Law Center is an extremist group that has named several conservative groups "hate groups". They admitted to us that we have not committed any overtly hateful acts, they just think we're hateful. If you include them here, then we should be able to do the same thing to the left-wing groups -- declare them "hate groups" and then edit their entries Unfortunately, if you're going to allow this to happen to me personally and our group, MassResistance, you will open the door to an enormous amount of edit warring from the thousands of supporters we have. Why not either (1) just remove our entries or (2) allow an entry that just describes the group?

The post you put up for MassResistance is NOT unbiased. It picks out a few negative "facts" among the hundreds of positive things that could be said. Please at least give me some indication that you've read this. This really needs to be resolved before it gets out of control.

Brian Camenker

PS: Let me add something else:

1. There is a sentence in the posting:
MassResistance's website often targets the transgender community and they have been criticized for promoting anti-gay studies that lack scientific merit. This is absurd. Some fringe website makes a statement about us and you insist on including it? Also, if you read their article carefully, it's clear that we're being called "Christian Right". Everything we've promoted DOES have scientific merit.

2. The blob "MassResistanceWatch" is run by two incredibly hateful homosexual activists who have threatened us in the past. At one point, we had to get the Attorney General involved from this activity. DO NOT include them on any serious posting

Is it any surprise that the leader of a Hate Group would either want you to white wash the truth or delete it entirely? Please, please, please peruse their website AND their blog. Read about the phony press releases they've sent out. They even bring up a story about the Attorney General but they don't tell you that the AG's office banned them from contacting their office because they kept pestering (warning, this is a link to another SPLC hate group) the attorneys (including posting their telephones so other could do the same):

Amy continues to live in fear of being terrorized by these sick, depraved animals. And Amy's local Acton, MA police department (978-264-xxxx) and Denise Barton at the Mass. Attorney General's office (617-727-xxxx) continue to avoid this like the plague. In fact, Denise Barton actually told Amy that Amy's now prohibited from phoning her -- only Amy's lawyer (if she has one) is allowed to communicate with Barton's office! Your tax dollars at work.

They've actually tried to erase the above references but I have the original emails and websites. It appears they are doing the same thing to Jacob and Wikipedia. Brian Camenker/MassResistance/Article 8 Alliance/Parents Right Coalition are masters of intimidation.
