"Soldier's Girl" full movie



Here's a little "Happy 'Keeping-it-Real' Veteran's Day" for y'all!
Depressing as hell--and infuriating--but worth seeing.

This sobering tale was put out by Showtime in 2003, and tells the
true story of a murder of an army private due to his sexuality.

Remember that this was done in the years that DADT and DOMA
were front burner shitstorms and when Bushie was stirring the
homophobia pot in order to steal another election.

In English with subtitles.

George Takei vs. Tennessee's "Don't Say Gay" Bill



Okay, I love George, and he's famously 'on mark' with his assessments of
all the political ridiculousness and stupidity. Also, I am aware that humor is
typically more effective than a tirade for changing hearts and minds, and
generally more widely received.

But really...what the hell is UP with Tennessee?!?! They have been all over
the news every day of the week and twice on Sundays this past year for
one damned Bubba-licious, dope-headed move after another! Has everyone
there fallen and hit their head? Is there something in the water that has
significantly lessened the collective IQ?

Pull it together, Tennessee. We're not in the Middle Ages, even if you like
staying in the dark.

Scary, scary stuff you need to be aware of.


The backlash is beginning. Be educated.
