Sorry for two back to back posts on the same subject, but there’s more on the gay teenagers executed in Iran. The freepers have been asking “Where’s the gay left? Why arent’ they speaking up about this?”
Um. They are.
The nation’s largest LGBT civil rights organization Friday urged Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to condemn the execution of two gay teens in Iran.
Thursday news emerged that the Iranian government had executed the two teens after a religious court found them them guilty of homosexuality.
…”This crime warrants an immediate and strong condemnation from the Department of State,” said the Human Rights Campaign in a letter Friday to Rice.
“Atrocities committed by foreign governments against all people must be condemned swiftly and forcefully by the world’s greatest democracy. We urge you to do so.
You can see the full content of the letter at the HRC website. Representatives of the state department claim not to have received the letter yet, and will have to “study it” before commenting further.
You can contact Condoleeza too. The State Department adress is on the department’s website.
You can also contact the Iranian ambassador in Canada, using the info below:

In the meantime, can ask the Family Research Council, Focus on the Family, Concerned Women for America, Pat Robertson, and Jerry Fallwellto condemn this disgusting act and wait for them do get around to it, along with Condi.
But I think we’re gonna be in for a long wait.

Dear Condi: I am so sick of you not getting the real world. Where are you girlfriend? Well, obviously you aren’t my girlfriend cause I would have verbally beat you to a pulp. But damn woman what are you doin to all of us women—black and white—you are a fright.
Dear Condi: My child is going to be hung for flirting with his neighbor—-hmmmm….. I thought that was natural and now you are not speaking out about killing him? I read in another thread how us gays better just shut up. F-You. We are being killed across the globe for being real. And you know what then happens when you deal with queer, reality is better than you can ask for. We might actually have real idea about human rights and even, oh god i didn’t say it, “thou shall not kill”, hmmmm . . . my saying: leave my babies alone or I will come to fuck you over
