I've Been Published. . . .again
Being published in a newspaper is not something new to me, I was in the local paper on a regular basis, but I've never been in a major newspaper. Now you all know my stand on gay marriage, I've wrote about this time and time again on here. So, I wrote a letter to the editor to a major paper in my area, the Herald Dispatch. It has circulation all throughout the tri-state area. Then I got a call one day to confirm I wrote a letter to the editor and they published it. Here's the letter I wrote:
People must fight for gay marriage
Many states have passed a bill discriminating against gays and denying them the right to marriage. I would like to ask the people of West Virginia to not allow this state to remain one of these.
I would like to ask the residents of Huntington to write our congressmen and let them know that we feel this is wrong. All Im asking for is help. This is an issue bigger then any of us, and we need to do something about it.
If we let people see that West Virginia is not willing to sit back and allow discrimination, we will open peoples eyes and allow them to see a different side of the state.
Thanks you all for your help. I cant do this alone.

In case any of you don't believe me, don't ask me why you wouldn't I just couldn't think of any other reason to post a link, here's a link to the official site of the paper with my letter on it. It is really pretty cool, my voice might actually be heard. Later Days.

May I add that placing this message right next to the "I Love Kevin Rose Even More" update makes for quite an interesting combination?
But I know better than that. There's no way you'd be gay unless Hilary Duff for some reason decided to turn herself into a man. And I'm sure that we all see that happening in that girly Disney chick's near future.
Anyway . . . (that went a little farther than I had intended to go) but--Yeah. I think you're absolutely right. I think it's awesome that you did that.
