Valentine’s Day Sweet For Illinois Same Sex Couples – Marriage Equality Set To Pass

>This year’s Valentine’s Day will be a day full of sweets and flowers. It will be one that is especially sweet for gay and lesbian couples in Illinois. The Illinois legislature will be voting on a bill that would allow marriage for same-sex couples. It will be the tenth state in the nation to do so.<

Yippee!

I wouldn't want this guy within a mile of any elementary school.

Dear School District 304,

As a courtesy I’m letting you know I’ve engaged the American Center for Justice and Law (ACLJ) as well as multiple conservative and verteran groups. I’m also contacting IL state legislators.

I WILL NOT stand for my children standing in front of the flag, hand on heart, reciting a corrupted Pledge of Allegiance that leaves out “liberty” and has students stating they will obey all rules and commands of teachers. I witnessed this first hand today and am ashamed. You are teaching fascism plain and simple. My children will not grow up as blind followers who don’t think for themselves.

I can think of no reason for having a separate pledge for kindergarteners and first graders then indoctrination of the young. Not going to happen on my watch. I’ve shed blood for this Country and will do so again if necessary.

My mother spent 12 years in a prison camp. I’m NOT ALLOWING you to introduce a Nazi way of life into the USA.

Kind Regards,

Colin M. McGroarty MBA, MCSE
