Franklin Graham, son of Billy Graham, has pulled his accounts from Wells Fargo in response to an LGBT friendly ad campaign. He is also going to boycott Tiffany in response to an ad that shows two men in a proposal.
While the accounts won't be felt by Wells Fargo, it's a good sign to watch them finally cut off their own noses for a change. Boycott, and as acceptance grows let's see you uphold those principles. Yeah. That's what I thought.
Also, does every homophobic rant have to include the gay agenda being rammed down their throat? I'm no therapist, but even six year old Catholic schoolgirls can see the snicker from a mile away.
So go ahead. Show your ass and make a power play. Feel that net tighten. Feel the burn as the accountability brings shame. Shame on him. Shame on those who would do the same.
If all printers were determined not to print anything till they were sure it would offend nobody, there would be very little printed. -- Benjamin Franklin

From The "About Damn Time" Department
(CNN)Just days after a video that went viral online showed him yanking a 14-year-old bikini-clad girl to the ground and kneeling on her back, Eric Casebolt has resigned from his post as a corporal for the Police Department in McKinney, Texas.There are disagreements as to whether race played a role in the incident. Of course it did, because I cannot imagine a white teenage girl being handled like that.
However, what it is beyond question is police brutality. His entire reaction from start to finish was not justified, and I am glad to see the Police Chief rebuke his actions, flat out stating their policies do not support his behavior.
This may not seem like much, but for the simple fact that YouTube is overwhelmed with these videos, the tide must eventually turn. How many more innocent people will be hurt while we wait?
That's largely up to the police to decide, unfortunately.
