No Newsom! No on M! Gay Shame Event

by Mary
Friday Oct 24, 5 pm: Mary's Campaign Kickoff Party. An elegant event of resistance to Gavin Newsom's fascist agenda.
Come protest at a fundraiser for Prop M! Through Prop M Gavin is yet again targeting the homeless to build Gavin's political career. Prop M makes many kinds of panhandling illegal. The protest is sponsored by Gay Shame, The Virus in the System. Meet at Geary and Mason Streets in SF's luxurious Theater District.

As an informed voter (i.e. voting "yes" on M, and "yes" for Newsom), I'll have to sit this one out.

Thanks for the invite,

Solidarity with gay shame against the right wing takeover of the gay community by neo-con Gavin Newsom. People are being killed by the US government WORLDWIDE and we all need to stand together against neo-con apologists for war criminal GW Bush..

Rate of poverty is increasing because the money for social programs is being diverted to the military and defense contracters like Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Howard Hughes, etc. This is money being pulled from community colleges that once gave low income people a way out. Homeless increase is direct result of the ongoing militarization and occupation of Iraq/Palestine/Bolivia for the purpose of resource theft. At least homeless people don't drive SUVs and HUMVEES that run on stolen Iraqi oil/blood..

The neo-cons like Gavin Newsom that have pushed their way into the gay community of SF with their blood soaked bankrolls do not represent anyone but der fuhrer GW Bush and the right wing fundamentalists..

Take back the streets of SF from Gavin Newsom and his anti-homeless agenda. Show the world that short-sighted neo-cons cannot push the people of SF around..

I work in a blue collar union and unfortunately many of my co-union workers will be voting for Newsome. The building trade Council also endorsed him. I want to offer Gay shame and their fellow travellers a little advice. Your rhetoric is ineffective in reaching working class people. According to gay shame rhetoric anyone who is slightly upset that homeless people are defecating in fromt of their house or is upset that needles got left in the local park's sandbox is a "fascist" or a "yuppie". Prop. N passed big time in the most leftist city in America. Wake up before we get Newsome!!!!! Any rebuttals by Gay Shamers?

you said "At least homeless people don't drive SUVs and HUMVEES that run on stolen Iraqi oil/blood."

ohhhhhhhhhhh puleeeeese, what bullcrap.

Stop giving these panhandlers "fish" and teach them how to fish. If they don't want to learn.. it is their free will choice.

NO FREE HANDOUTS
That is a real solution. If people would stand up for everyones right to bear arms this whole problem could be solved. A well armed homeless population would be able to take from the rich rather than having to beg.
