    Sometimes, security is just forgetful. There was this woman who tried attacking Pope Benedict...two years in a row. The first year, give security a pass. But the second year?

    You're right...the security should have been on the lookout for this guy once he was released.

    Great news! The best way to honor Leelah Alcorn would be to ban it nationwide. I look forward to that.

    Regarding Trip and V-2 's convo. There are four sexual orientations, if we look at it from the binary perspective like the one used for gender. None, one, other and all. Everything else depends on the other binary, gender and can vary. That is not to say that pansexuals and polysexuals don't exist; I just assume that they're gender-specific and not sex-specific.

    Also, glad to see that this thread is becoming more and more inclusive!

    ...

    They just said on TV that 50% of high school age students in Serbia are homophobic. :(

    Also, Pride is on September 20th, but trans people (whom media still calls transexuals, as if they all had the bottom surgery...yeah, right) are having their march separately from everybody else. To me, this signifies a problem. Discrimination inside of the LGBT community. I knew that some gays, bis and lesbians were discriminative towards us aces (a lesbian told me that I am fooling myself and that I probably won't admit that I like women...yeah, right...); but this sounds like a very bizarre case of TERFs. :/

    Maybe the other 50% aren't! :)

    Within three years, he will probably be found with a rent-boy in some seedy hotel doing the stuff that only Prince would sing about.

    That is still a small percentage. I don't know the data for any other country, nor my own generation from when we were in school; but I'm frightened.

    I completely agree. I'm actually hoping they will hold her in contempt of court and arrest her. I don't think it will actually happen, I think they'd go with fines, but my hope is there.

    If you can't do your job, you should move on. It doesn't make giddy to help save the life of the dirtbag who killed a family because he was driving while drunk, but I do it and I do it to the best of my ability because it's my job and it's not my job to judge and punish him.

    You're a professional-- that word actually has meaning, or should.

    I don't see why that's necessary. Can't they just remove her from her position?

    I'm pretty sure she is an elected official, which would mean she would have to be impeached most likely.

    Apparently finding her guilty of contempt of court is less legally problematic than removing her from office, and since they didn't think a fine would suffice the result is jail time. Jurisprudence is ****ing weird.

    So basically her choices were:

    1) Go to Jail and a judge issues the marriage certificates because she can't perform her job
    2) Avoid Jail and let her deputies issue the certificates.

    Either way, same sex couples get married. The only difference is whether she stays in jail or not. She's an idiot.

    She's making a point. A very stupid point.
