I used to give Reverend Ricky Burgess the benefit of the doubt. He's the councilor for Pgh District 9. When City Council voted on a “Will of Counsel” resolution to support including sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression in the state Human Relations Commission, he parsed his support.

Ricky Burgess has repeatedly slapped the LGBT […]
The Pennsylvania Institutue has one upped itself with regard to shining a light on the Chik-Fil-A homophobic mentality. Next up is a Pittsburgh based dinner with a keynote speaker infamous from defaming Planned Parenthood with so-called undercover footage. 2011 Friends of the Family Banquet — in Pittsburgh, PA 2011 Pittsburgh Friends of the Family Banquet […]
When I asked Hugh McGough to sit down with me and talk about his campaign, I was admittedly most interested in the significance of electing Pittsburgh's second openly gay official (third in Allegheny County).
