A new report by the Heritage Foundation finds that according to publicly documented sources supporters of Prop 8 endured:

“harassment, intimidation, vandalism, racial scapegoating, blacklisting, loss of employment, economic hardships, angry protests, violence, at least one death threat, and gross expressions of anti-religious bigotry.”

I can tell you personally as a Californian that I experiences and heard many first-hand stories of harassment, threats, anti-bigotry, and thefts. This report lines up with many of the event that I witnessed and heard about it is an important report about the widespread tactics of those opposed to the man/woman marriage definition.

Breitbart.tv posted video today that revealed that Obama “Safe-Schools Czar” Kevin Jennings was a member of a militant homosexual group responsible for giving sexual explicit material to underage schoolchildren, hijacking a CBS news broadcast, and defiling a Catholic church in a way that resulted in 111 arrests of its members.

Video of Jennings partner talking about Jennings being involved in ACT UP:

What ACT UP did:

1. GAVE SEXUALLY EXPLICIT MATERIAL TO UNDERAGE SEATTLE CHILDREN In December 1991, ACT UP’s Seattle chapter distributed over 500 safer-sex packets outside Seattle high schools. The packets contained a pamphlet titled “How to Fuck Safely”, which was photographically illustrated and included two men performing fellatio. The Washington state legislature subsequently passed a “Harmful to Minors” law making it illegal to distribute sexually explicit material to underage persons.
2. ACT-UP ACTIVISTS ARRESTED FOR CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY, STALKING, HARASSMENT, & MAKING CRIMINAL THREATS TO PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICIAL AND JOURNALISTSTwo homosexual activist ended up pleading guilty to lesser misdemeanor charges. Source
   
3. PHYSICALLY ATTACKED AIDS CHARITIES THAT HELP HIV-POSITIVE PATIENTSSF Chronicle: According to people who witnessed the incident, ACT UP members pushed their way past security, and pelted Project Inform’s founding director, Martin Delaney, and others with hard, pelletlike pills, while yelling epithets.
4. TV STUDIO TAKEOVEROn January 22, 1991, during Operation Desert Storm, ACT UP activist John Weir and two other activists entered the studio of the CBS Evening News at the beginning of the broadcast. They shouted “Fight AIDS, not Arabs!” and Weir upstaged anchorman Dan Rather before the control room cut to a commercial break.
5. ATTACKS CATHOLIC CHURCH, 111 ARRESTEDThe organization, or offshoots of it, have at times faced criticism for being too militant. Their disagreements with Cardinal John O’Connor on issues related to sex education in New York City Public Schools, as well as the Cardinal’s public views on homosexuality, led to the first Stop the Church protest on December 10, 1989 at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, New York, in which it’s estimated 4500 ACT-UP and WHAM! members gathered outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral to protest the Church’s perceived homophobia, and their opposition to safe sex education and abortion. 111 activists were arrested. Some activists entered the Cathedral, interrupted Mass, chanted slogans, or lay down in the aisles. One protestor broke a communion wafer and threw it to the floor.[24] As a result of the St. Patrick’s Cathedral action, ACT-UP was publicly condemned by Mayor Edward Koch and some media for what they viewed as militancy and disrespect.

What a great group for our nation’s “Safe Schools Czar” to be an active member of. I wonder what sort of vetting the Obama administration did on Kevin Jennings. With Jennings other outrageous past actions like giving positive counsel to a 15-year-old boy to engage in a homosexual relationship with an older man that was illegal at the time it is time for Obama to send Jennings packing.

Oh and Jennings also has been critical of the effect of books like “Romeo and Juliet” because they teach a heterosexual norm in schools.

Roughly one of every 10 men who have sex with men reported using meth within a six-month period, according to a 2005 study cited by the L.A. County Department of Public Health in a report this week. That frequency is about 20 times greater than in the general population, Fielding (Los Angeles County public health director.) said.
