I blocked him after a bit, then heard from mutal friends that he was posting negative comments about me, including being an mentally ill unstable […]
Bil at Bilerico has a great write up on this annual battle. Yes, the Salvation Army does good work. But so do the Boy Scouts.

Since 1986 the Salvation Army has engaged in five major assaults on the LGBT community’s civil rights and attempted to […]
