The ink hasn't even dried since the sentencing of Bridges McRae, the dirty Memphis cop who beat handcuffed transgender woman Duana Johnson than another Memphis cop has violated a transgender women's rights.

According to Kiare Newsom she was verbally harassed after police learned she is transgender "I've never been called so many names like "Punk, Sissy, expletive deleted" The police then ordered her to lift up her blouse and push aside her bra exposing her breasts to interstate traffic.

HRC Maryland Coup d'état to depose The Maryland Transgender Alliance


HRC is officially running the show in Maryland, or so it thinks. The gay mouthpiece Washington Blade headline announced ".In shakeup, HRC poised to lead Md. marriage effort. "

The reality is HRC bought off Equality Maryland (for whatever that's worth, took over from from the fumbling Sheets and installed its own leadership.

Not surprising is the Blade article didn't mention the political group formed in April The Maryland Transgender Alliance. Not surprising is that HRC Maryland has not stopped censoring its Facebook page not allowing any dissident comments.

Not surprising ether is the announcement that HRC Equality Maryland had manufactured a transgender group. Pretty smart since that was the factor missing from last years debacle. They needed strong enough leadership, HRC, funding, HRC and a group of 'gender queers' and rich transgender quislings to form a group to 'lead' shove the gay agenda down the transgender communities throat.

Whats surprising is the audacity of HRC but no more denying they are financing and calling the shots. I feel vindicated.

HRC, you are all that is evil.

Transgender Marylanders, please meet the new smarter, leaner enemy.

HRC dd not deny they gave Equality Maryland "a large sum on money' only that the money did not directly affect whom Equality Maryland selected for its leader. HRC offered the fact Equality Maryland has a INTERIM EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR as proof the money went elsewhere.

How stupid and do they think we are?

I see there is a month passed between HRC installing it's choice of interim dictator and Beyer as its chief trans quisling.

I see that the liars and low life's that has stomped on the heads of transgender Marylanders has entrenched itself. God have mercy on us.

Yes NG Blog: It can be a Ignorant Arrogant Misogynistic Gay and Lesbian world

A couple of days ago Nelson over at NG Blog inserted himself into a twitter conversation I was having. I was communicating with Queer Rising founder Natasha Dillon trying to educate her about the wrongness of their planed event using transgender expression to humiliate Senator Diaz during the NYC Aids Walk.

Well they did it anyways.

Nelson then strenuously interjected his opposition to my advocacy at a very critical junction. Its cool twitter is a free for all but......

Nelson, I was not alone objecting to this. Most of the gay, lesbian and transgender community felt it was wrong with one trans member Ashley Love, quiting Queer Rising.

It is exploitative and marginalizing of a larger minority to use a small component of its community as a tool in a debasing manner to embarrass someone.
I feel it's indicative of the gay communities elephant in the room, misogynistic behaviour towards womankind. Seriously, how many protests by cisgender men of cisgender woman entail holding up a misgendered portrait of their opponent???



Nelson writes on NG Blog trans people should feel privileged to be used like that cardboard cutout.

Nelson, drag is part of the transgender expression, or is according to gay people whenever I try and distance myself from gay men mocking womankind.

Nelson, please take a moment and educate yourself. When I first became upset with Israel Luna's infamous TO#WK and found myself wanting for a publication explaining gay and lesbian misogynist transphobia behaviour I stumbled across the publication GLBTQ Social Sciences and this paragraph:


Yes Nelson it is a mad, mad, mad, mad, world if you let your innate misogyny run wild because it knows no boundaries. Neither does racial hate. Neither does angst towards someone different from ourselves. Its naturally occurring but when confronted from the inside it can be defeated. Then its not so mad.

I'm on Twitter here:)

"Queer Rising" Stop Drag n round Transgender Expression on the Aids Walk

Kat over at Enda Blog is righteously "fucking mad" that New York gay's are continuing to place Marriage equality over GENDA.

I couldn't agree more with Kat on that count but what makes me really "fucking mad" is a that queer rising, a New York Gay advocacy organization is using Rupaul's misappropriated brand trying to embarrass their opponents with MY transgender expression.

Queer Rising offended that Senator Diaz is holding a anti gay marriage rally the same day will be on the Aids Walk route taking pictures of the Senator in drag with participants for a dollar.

Ok, this is not right you're thinking, but maybe Queer Rising has a history of transgender activism and being populated by trans people this transgression might not seem as offensive. Viewing the video of past actions I see no obviously trans peeps so we'll dig a little deeper, there still might be some trans in the woodpile.

Well, Queer Rising's Facebook page and web page listing past actions doesn't have anything in support of the most vulnerable of our community, inner city transgender people. Neither does Queer Rising cofounder Natasha Dillon Twitter account nor does Queer Rising..
But Queer Rising's Tweeter stream overflows with tweets by gay people celebrating Queers Rising dehumanizing of transgender people for GAY MARRIAGE!

Queer Rising WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? TAKE THE "T" OUT OF YOUR NAME! you have done nothing to earn it

So, I painted myself into a corner you think defending RuPaul of all people!

Number 1. RuPaul is a transphobic cisgender gay pig who's monetarily capitalizing on the transgender expression which tragically simultaneously assimilates our expression. (we got him, like it or not)

Number 2. That said, drag does fall under the transgender umbrella as much as I don't like it and you're using it to denigrate our existence is an attack on our physical welfare


I got a better idea! Why don't we place your senatorial opponents on top of your gay fist and humiliate him with the idea HE MIGHT BE GAY? *GASP* Just leave transgender expression and identity alone. I'll tell you why.


You are gay and lesbian misogynist and did not want to denigrate the gay experience. Because transgender people are easily accessible less respected minority EVERYONE can laugh at, one that gay people feel they have some claim to. YOU USED US!


We are not less than you, damn it.


Contact queerrising@gmail.com and/or call Co Founder Natasha Dillon at 917-520-8554.

Update of sorts. Its still a day before the walk but I have had two phone conversations with Natasha Dillion. She told me during those talks the reason Queer Rising has no history of transgender advocacy is because no transgender people have attended their meetings.

According to Natasha" We vote on advocacy ideas from our members but since we have had no transgender members there have been no trans events" I really suspected as much. When she was questioned about who suggested using drag to humiliate the Senator Ms. Dillion told me "We have a couple drag queen members, some who have been arrested with us and they suggested the idea". Ms. Dillion did say that their drag members did not live full time.

In this mornings twitter conversation Ms Dillion responded positively to my list of blogs I asked her to read with this mention:

Again I ask that DRAG, a part of our culture NOT be used to humiliate and degrade our adversaries. Actions like that send a message to the transgender communities foes that not only are we less than they but less than gay.

LGBT Protesting McDonald Corporate irresponsibility worldwide


After Chrissy Polis's attackers beat her into convulsions accompanied by McDonald employees transgender slurs McDonald's corporation responded to my tweets protesting the employee responses
McDonald's response in the first few days has remained basically the same despite ignoring over 150,000 petition signers calling on them to incorporate diversity training.

Time to protest!

There are some who are organizing worldwide sit ins Against Violence, and Intolerance Under The Golden Arches

I think this is a great idea and I will be at the one in Dallas Texas. But you don't even have to be that well organized to protest the McDonald's long history of oppression.

Next time you are hungry instead of ordering a McHate quarter pounder, Just sit under the Arches for a couple of minutes with a sign. Get the word out. Then go somewhere else to eat. The world will no longer stand for McDonald's silence and whitewashing of the Chrissy Polis attack!

Just in case you haven't seen this appalling video taped by a McDonald's employee:

Interlopers the play in LA: Transgender unique misfits journey to authentic selves

The keywords in the Interlopers tweet captured my imagination. Setting aside the inevitable transphobic world for a moment lets revel in our experience.

From Bootleg Theater: "The Interlopers by Gary Lennon, is a Romeo and Juliet story set in the transgender world of Los Angeles. Through the theme of identity, the play explores a group of unique misfits who call themselves family, and who are brave enough to challenge the obstacle course called life. Examining these singular and special people, the play follows them on their journeys to being their whole and authentic selves."
