		<description><![CDATA[Bigots like this jacobs woman dont belong in the government - they belong in Afghanistan where the men there will treat them like Jacobs would treat other people.

Shame on AmeriKKKa for having people like Jacobs.  Its supposed to be America.

wonder what she is afraid of - her own sexuality or her own gender issues?

Its almost always that way.]]></description>

Its almost always that way.

Like eg George Reker, founder of the nnow listed as a hate group - Family Research Council, which hates gays with a passion that is equal to that of Hitler, who threw the gays into the ovens with the Jews.  (ps they are headed by people from the deep south who also hated black people)

Reker a few mos ago got caught taking a rent-a-boy - a college male prostitiute with him to Europe to &quot;give him massages&quot;

You know what that means.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It has always seemed to me that Equality Maryland has not done enough if any education of the public and the Maryland Legislature on what Public Accommodations are and why it is as important to trans people as it is to non-trans people.  And I find that truly surprising and enlightening as in this session HB285 is going thru almost stealth which strengthens Maryland&#039;s existing law which defines Public Accommodations--for Gays and Lesbians ONLY.  So in other words, in the future, if the Gender Indentity Anti-Discrimination Bill (HB235) passes without public accommodations, both it AND the stealth bill HB285 will need to be amended.   A truly Herculean task and a revolting exercise in order to allow trans people to partake in basic human rights of access to public accommodations which most of us take for granted.  This was a shameful shell game orchestrated by Equality Maryland and some in the MD Legislature against the transgender community.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This woman is a menace to humanity. She creates the scenario where kids will be molested if trans-protections bills are passed. She sees that it doesn&#039;t happen and continues to use this same propaganda anyway. So she&#039;s just a plain and simple bigot. I&#039;d love to know what&#039;s behind this massive smoke screen and what it is she&#039;s hiding.]]></description>
