Ron Luce and the Battlecry crowd was affectively countered

Ron Luce held his Battecry event in San Francisco. The Board of Supervisors condemned his presence saying that religion preaches "Homosexuality is a sin." This crowd was countered at the steps of City Hall by people who oppose religion.
We the people of San Francisco do NOT want religious extremism in our city.

Transsexuals can choose jails

Mar 05 2006 06:29:12:537PM

Transsexual inmates in Spain will soon be able to serve their sentences in facilities for men or women, according to their "psycho-social identity".

Madrid - Transsexual inmates in Spain soon will be able to serve their sentences in facilities for men or women according to their "psycho-social identity", and not according to their original gender, reported the El Pais newspaper on Sunday.

According to the centre-left daily, a directive is about to be published concerning the incarceration of individuals who have undergone a sex change.

Transsexuals would be able to ask to serve their sentences in prisons corresponding to their new gender, and prison authorities also would address them by their preferred name, according to the report.

Prison officials would conduct an inquiry to confirm the sexual identity of the prisoner, notably by requiring the inmate to show proof of having started the sex change at least one year before being jailed.

Mercedes Gallizo, the director-general of Spain's prison administration, had already expressed her desire to make these changes in the prison system.

Spanish prisons house about 40 female transsexuals, who were formerly men, but no cases of the opposite sex change, according to the newspaper.

Jogger Struck By Car, Found In Ditch
In San Francisco's Presidio

San Francisco police are looking for the driver who plowed down a woman who was jogging in the Presidio and then took off.

Update:


This is sad, and the City of SF does nothing to educate society about the dangers of Hit and Runs.
Teardrops..............




After 27 years of happiness, love, laughter and true spirit, Ashlyn passed peacefully at 4:23 PM On March 12, 2006.

Doctors were able to harvest all healthy organs which will provide the gift of life to many.

Although there were early signs of improvement, by Wednesday night it was apparent that Ashlyn had sustained a severe, irreversible brain injury caused by the lack of oxygen for a period of probably greater than ten minutes from the time she was hit until paramedics arrived and began resuscitation. This lack of oxygen caused brain swelling (cerebral edema) which was impossible to control adequately to protect her brain, despite medicines and bedside procedures. Dr. Manley consulted with brain injury experts around the country and it was the opinion of all that if Ashlyn did survive she would be forever in a vegetative state. The treatment for the brain swelling was withdrawn Thursday night. The swelling will now continue and increase, all the while with Ashlyn having absolutely no pain or discomfort.

Had the person who hit Ashlyn stopped, or called 911 immediately, Ashlyn could have recovered from the injuries she sustained.
