Blog: Last night’s rally
Hey everyone!
So, here are some pix from the No on 8 march that took place in W Hollywood last night! At first I was afraid of going because of the decision that came down yesterday not lifting the ban on same sex marraiges. But, Bob, Pauly, and myself decided to add our voices to the cause and we were glad we did.
It is pretty unreal that in 2009 it is an issue still. When you see the leaders of our area also outraged, and all of the people both gay and straight taking to the streets, at least the gay community knows that someone cares. That’s why I was there. To say – OK, so – our government is stuck in a time warp but, at least your neighbors want you to have all your hearts’ desires.
One man spoke and said that it wasn’t his goal to show the world that his family was different and make a spectacle of being gay. On the contrary – he wants to quietly go about his business and devote himself to his family…..
…..And, no one has the right to dictate what makes a family. Last time I checked, it was love.
Enjoy the pix and have a great day : )

Thank you for standing up for the gay community, Deborah. It means so much to those of us for whom your music served as a soundtrack to the coming out process.
Excellent Deborah. I am hoping that one day, my rights here in New York would not go through the same debacle in which California is going through. It’s a shame.
Thanks Deborah. Your words and feelings echo mine exactly. It’s all about love!
Thanks for supporting us. You are amazing and we love you!
Hope The Real IDOL likes our picture! Thanks for your support and standing with us for so long. We luv ya!
Hi Deb, I don’t live in LA. But I wanted to say thanks for going & showing your support. It means a LOT to me & many other “people” who can’t get married. I would say “gay people”. But I don’t believe we should be known as gay, white, black or what ever label some people think we should be under. We are all “people” regardless. Thank you so MUCH!!!!
Deb, thank you for being there for us. While California voters have disappointed, and the judicial process has failed, I do feel very strongly that the impact and the outrage is heard world wide. I hope for a ripple effect, which we’ve seen a little by way of the states that have since legalized gay marriage. At any rate, I Appreciate the support.
And no, we don’t want to make spectacles of our lives, but we’re not afraid to either. Especially if it means working towards equal rights that are truly equal.
Hope things are great for you!
Hi Deborah! You always look so hot.
I love you.
From Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Just one more reason why I love you so much Deborah. You’re the greatest!! xoxo
Hi, Debbie.
I have always believed people are people regardless of any personal choices they make with their lives. All the more, it is the personal choices they make which make them real people. You have always stood for the liberation of all people, particularly the youth, and I guess it is a matter of teaching the children from an early age to love and cherish life in all the wide and wonderful forms it presents itself to us in. God bless you for all your efforts to support a free world.
Your fan,

P.S. You look so beautiful in your photographs…as always.
I love my dog so does that mean I can marry him seeing as gays love each other and their definition of marriage is “if we love each other and are totally committed, we should be allowed to marry”.
I say for those who have dogs. cats, whatever, if you love your pets, fight to marry them as well. If gays can do it, so can we.
heck, then we can adopt children b/c “we are totally committed” to one another.
Gays can have rights–HELLO!!! at their jobs, sign up for health care for themselves as well as life insurance and just add anybody you want. I did with no trouble. I work and signed up myself for health and life insurance and added my SIL as beneficiary doesn’t take rocket science to do this. Duh!! why make it harder than it is???
Gays know that they can NOT procreate so they want/demand the same rights as normal married couples to adopt. You need BOTH a mother and a father not 2 of the same.
These types of unions are unhealthy. Ever hear of AIDS???? HIV??? If you get this from promiscuous behavior, I won’t feel sorry for you. you play, YOU PAY. Folks who have cancer deserve more attention than you guys.
What a big ass crock of uneducated crap you are. Did you notice that you are the only person here being an ignorant homophobe… Everyone deserves equality. We do share some of the same rights but we certainly are not out of line in DEMANDING ALL of them. As far as procreating we in our community are raising splendid families. Do alittle research of the FACTS before you mouth off.
hey joey, you need to go back to school to learn about the birds and the bees. IT TAKES A MAN AND WOMAN TO PROCREATE NOT 2 OF THE SAME SEX. IDIIOT!!!
nice language you are using. Do you use it in front of kids to show what a tiny tiny man you really are?????
and YES, gays are always pushing their sexual beliefs esp. at gay pride parades where kids are. They were scantily clad (at least where we are) clothes and say its ok to ….well , i won’t repeat such cr@p.
yeah, gays are so mature and a great example of how society should be.

how about going about their day and NOT pushing their ill will on others. Be gay and do whatever…just don’t shove it down our throat. duh!!!
This is my last response to you so you can go back and play with the other church/home schooled 12 year olds. You talk of gays pushing our beliefs…well let me tell you of all the heterosexual agenda I’ve had shoved down my throat…and were they ever thankful…Interesting that you’re such an expert on gay pride parades. You sound like you have been to more than me and I’ve been around. As far as the birds and bees go they too realize that sex is not always for reproduction and just do it cause it feels good…God given feelings too I might add. You might even get to experience it at some point. You can also read up on all of those in the animal kingdom that also have same sex hookups. If you have such faith in your God why do you never give him much credit? If God is so perfect how could he possible let such a huge chunk of the population be such mistakes? You don’t give kids much credit either as they are much more aware and they know that love is love is love. And as far as my language goes, I didn’t even curse, as bad as I wanted to. I do realize that ” ignorant homophobe” is harsh language…especially when it’s true…Goodnight…Now go watch the TONY’S…I know you TIVo’d it…
joey, you don’t know me. I never mentioned God but for your info I am not GAY. I believe in God & am happily married but you don’t see me shoving heterosexual marriage down your throat . And you say you’ve been around…hmmm…how many prides did you march in??? I only speak of what the news shows us around here. I’d never march for something that is so sick and disgusting. The children in our town know that is it morally wrong b/c 2 of the same sex CANNOT have children…they know about life. There is no such thing as same sex animal hook ups otherwise it’d be all over the news. So where is your proof??? your imagination??? how cute.
For the birds and the bees, I can tell from what you are saying that if it feels good, do it….you probably sleep around and use the opposite or probably the same for that matter to satisfy your urges. SICK man that you are.
folks, if you love your pets, I say go for it and fight to marry them b/c joey here claims he has the proof that animals are gay as well. yep, he went to harvard for this info. Get a life.
hey joey, I work at one of the zoos in sunny CA, I am a zoo keeper to be exact for over 15 yrs. I’ve never in my life encountered any gay animals.
your comment about animals being gay is a first. I’ll have to share that with the guys here at work. thanks for making my day
joey, last I heard everyone has the right to voice their opinion and not push it onto anyone. CS was probably being sarcastic or funny…hard to tell.
anyway, please be kind to others as you’d want them to be to you.
As for gay animals in the animal kingdom, I am a science teacher in a local grade school and I watch/am an Animal Planet fan. Gay animals is a first for me.
You sure you went to school?? not trying to be mean, but I’m just wondering where you get your information from. chill out and enjoy life. it’s too short.
gay animals??? which educational shows do you watch joey? hmmmmm…
are you sure it’s not queer eye for the straight guy you are talking about?
just wondering. I agree with the others, just chill. take it easy.
I am a grade school teacher that teaches science. I’ve never in my entire career heard of gay animals in the animal kingdom.
joey, was your major in zoology or something?? seriously, you made my day by making that funny comment. please relax and don’t be so uptight.
Just because you’ve never seen or heard of homosexual animals in Podunk, Kentucky, or observed abused/retarded animals at your local zoo practicing homosexuality, does not mean they do not exist. There are in fact hundreds of species known throughout the animal kingdom to practice homosexuality.
Here is an article from National Geographic. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2004/07/0722_040722_gayanimal.html
A Wikipedia about homosexual animals: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality_in_animals
An expanded list of asexual, homosexual, bi-sexual, and transgender animals at Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_animals_displaying_homosexual_behavior
It really depends on believing God and his creations, or man, conservatives that thrive on hate, making their own lives miserable, and enjoyment in doing the same to others.
and wikipedia is such a reliable source.??? I’ve heard from many folks numerous times how inaccurate that site is. National Geographic at least does their research before publicizing it.
Folks who believe in God don’t thrive on hate or enjoy making their own lives miserable. Same sex ppl for some reason think that everyone hates them when that is NOT true. Not everybody may agree w/ lifestyle choices some may choose, just like parents may not agree as to who their children hang around with, date, or decide to marry.
Same sex folks need to realize that everyone is different in faith/values/morals, etc. . With that said, chill out flaming gay and live your life in peace without prejudice. If gays want to be accepted, they should give the same consideration to others…. not their way only is the right way and that’s it. People will have various opinions, that’s life. It’s too short to carry on such nonsense. peace.
Thanks Mate
DEBORAH ,YOU GO GIRL!!!!!
YOU ROCK!!!!!!
Sad to see another hollywood star “standing up” for supposed inequality – hitchhiking off of the incredible change the civil rights movement brought. Two men or two women having sex is not normal, it is perverted. The homosexual agenda wants to make it socially acceptable through legislation and then to force us to accept it and our children. Hollywood stars and socialites are the most gullible because they are so addicted to being “accepted” and typically (with some exceptions) sell their soul for anything that gets them a new friend. Sadly most of them have lost any sense of Godly morality.
This is a moral crisis not a civil rights crisis.
