Stand Up and Be Counted . . . Or Not

A group calling themselves "Restore America" are wildly indignant to learn that e-mails to state Senator Frank Morse are considered part of the public record.

They want to bravely oppose Oregon Senate Bill 1000, which seeks to extend the rights of a U.S. citizen to queers. But they want to bravely oppose it anonymously, you see.

David Crowe calls this perfectly ordinary sharing of public information a "stunt", and rants about gay people's "unfettered willingness to go after those who oppose their wishes", hinting that he will be subject to some form of harassment, without actually making any accusation.

As for me, I am strongly in favor of SB 1000, at least as a start.

And you can quote me on that.

Well, that's enough of playing with the computer. From up here in the lookout, I am guiltily aware of Kathe and the ever-useful Corky down below on the porch roof, replacing shingles. I should get down there and help out.
