Family Fireside Chat Y'all

I was just thinking to myself that it has been awhile since the family has gotten together and just talked about how we all are doing.

I'm still working on getting rich, furthering my career and reading books.  In my free time I'm helping Dad with his sleu of projects, and keeping him focused.

I'm always grateful that I have such a wonderful family and that you are all doing well.

Anyway,

Love,
E

Call to Action (so angry)

Family,

If you haven't read this story, here it is:

"High School cancels prom to prevent lesbian attendance"
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,588967,00.html?test=latestnews

I am so angry right now. So angry. And I'm taking action. Here is a list of contacts for the school and school district. Not only am I writing an e-mail, but I am also writing a snail-mail letter and will call to voice my opinion on this.

I find this cruel. I find this backwards. I find this to be a spit in the face of everything that is godly, American and Human. To overreact, to target this child, to use her to incite anger in her peers, to set her up for a gauntlet of hate, fear and possible violence...it's not right.

Please join me and voice your opinion. This is my rock bottom.

(Just to let you know, I am crying. And shaking. So pissed.)

If possible, I will also write an encouraging letter to Ms. Constance McMillan. I'm using every journalistic tool in the box to find her e-mail or address. Really hard considering she hasn't been emancipated yet, and the family obviously doesn't want too much attention. But I will find it! Stay tuned.
