| Description |
English: From author:
"Saturday July 21, 2012 Hillcrest, San Diego - Republican City Councilman Carl DeMaio received a lukewarm reception from the crowd as he traveled the parade route. Most parade watchers offered polite applause, but there was a smattering of boos. A few bystanders turned their backs to DeMaio as part of an organized protest. DeMaio, who is gay, is running against Democratic Rep. Bob Filner to be the next mayor, but DeMaio's unwillingness to champion social issues has led to frustration among some gay activists. [quote from UTSanDiego.com] "Turn Your Back on DeMaio!" facebook event: http://www.facebook.com/events/133151... Carl DeMaio has turned his back on the LGBT community, accepting plenty of Yes on 8 money and making promises to "...not push the gay agenda issues..." in exchange for campaign aid from Anti-Gay special interests. We need to send DeMaio a clear message that WE WILL NOT BE SOLD OUT! We won't support anyone that is funded by H8! Let's turn OUR backs on HIM! WHO: LGBT Community and Allies WHAT: Silent protest against Carl DeMaio; Parade Entry #81 WHEN: Saturday, July 21 11:00AM-1:00PM WHERE: San Diego LGBT Pride Parade THIS Saturday Carl DeMaio (running for San Diego Mayor) will have a contingent in the San Diego LGBT Pride Parade, entry #81. This Saturday as Carl's contingent passes by, Turn Your Back to him. Let's give photographers, videographers, and the media something to talk about: The fact that we won't support someone who won't support us! LARGE POSTER SIGN graphics and flyers are currently being made. Final renditions will be put up for a vote for favorite(s) to be printed. If you would like to donate to get these materials printed and ready for the Pride Parade this Saturday or have SLOGAN IDEAS. We love community support! THANK YOU! PLEASE SHARE THIS EVENT ON FACEBOOK, EMAIL, AND ALL OTHER SERVICES AS YOU CAN IMMEDIATELY, INVITE EVERYONE! SAY |NO| TO YES ON PROP 8 MONEY AND ANTI-GAY SPECIAL INTEREST! TURN YOUR BACK ON CARL! "DeMaio has made a pact with the devil in pursuit of power, a pact made because of his desire to be mayor of America's Finest City. DeMaio so desperately wants to be mayor that he has made deals with anti-LGBT organizations and people who support his candidacy for mayor, while also supporting groups whose main purpose is to fight against LGBT equality." (LGBT Weekly March 16th, 2012)" |
