Lesbian Couple Protests Focus on the Family


EdgeBoston.com:
A lesbian couple in Colorado Springs is facing trespassing charges following a protest Monday at Focus on the Family headquarters over founder James Dobson’s cheery, sugarplum views on same-sex parenting.

Robynne Sapp and Dotti Berry, of Blaine, WA, said they took a guided tour of the Focus grounds, hand in hand, then sat down on the floor of the lobby and refused to leave until Dobson met with them. They wanted him to "publicly recant" statements he made in an essay in a December issue of Time magazine.

The two women are members of Soulforce, a gay and lesbian activist organization that has held numerous protests at the Focus campus.

"I am here to m
irror Dr. Dobson’s human essence, so that the reflection will cause him to fully understand why it is important to begin telling a new and true story, one that empowers all of us," said Berry.
First of all, those two make a really good looking couple. Secondly, Dobson sounds like an idiot which is typical of these conservative groups. Lastly, I'm adding Soulforce to my blogroll because they got guts!
