"Americans for Truth" goes after Folsom Street Fair

Just got this in my inbox (I have no idea what mailing list I'm on, but apparently they think I'm media)

Notice the can't even spell DaVinci's name correctly :)


Why Won’t Pelosi Condemn Illegal Public Sex, Child Abuse and Anti-Christian Hate?

CONTACT: Peter LaBarbera, 630-717-7631 (peterlabarbera@comcast.net);

Washington, D.C – Americans For Truth (www.americansfortruth.org) will be airing uncensored videotaped footage Wednesday in Washington, D.C., documenting rampant illegal public nudity and perverse sex at the Folsom Street Fair, an open-air, sadistic sex festival held September 30th on the streets of San Francisco, in the district of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. An estimated 400,000 participants (including children) attended the event. This year’s promotional advertisement mocked Christianity in the form of an anti-Christian poster ridiculing Divinci’s The Last Supper.

Americans For Truth (AFTAH) sent a formal letter to House Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) yesterday, calling on her to condemn both the event’s hateful anti-Christian bigotry and public debauchery – including homosexual orgies that were allowed to go on as city police stood by and did nothing (this is also captured on film). Earlier, Pelosi publicly refused to denounce these aspects of the event and has said that she wants to spread “San Francisco values” throughout America.

Among the extreme behaviors documented in AFTAH’s video footage are:

· Men walking on public streets either fully or partially naked;

· Groups of men engaged in orgies on San Francisco streets, including acts of oral sex and mutual masturbation, as crowds walked by and snapped pictures and police watched but did nothing.

· Young children with their parents amidst the many perversions, including public whippings;

· Blatant anti-Christian bigotry in the form of the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence " – men who dress up in drag as mock nuns.

'Homosexual orgies' where do i sign up? LOL

I really hope the Dems do nothing about this letter, itd be a shame to lose them due to pressure from the Christian-Right too :(

Regards,

Lee

As some of you know, I am a member of that evil group, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

The Sisters have chosen to ignore guys like this and their slanderous campaigns directed straight at us. I suspect the only reason they bring up Folsom Fair at all is due to our affiliation with it.

If we were to go to battle with this guy, what should be the method, without stooping to their level?

Got a Zoo nearby? Maybe it is time for the Lions again. This time a year, most football teams are almost done...there should be plenty of stadiums to choose from. Just a thought.

Scrabble ! They plop down "sacred", you connect it to "cocksucking"...

If you want to battle them I'd say beat them at their own game. Make a presentation of all the so called upstanding people who have anything to do with their organization or religious organizations in general who have been caught having sex, engaging in molestation or embezzling money and show how much damage they are doing by using the name of God and Jesus to further their political agenda while engaging in underhanded activities.

Or you could interview gay men who's lives have been damaged through parents disowning them or self-hatred due to the anti-gay messages fed through organizations such as Americans For Truth and then show how The Sisters have made their lives richer by eradicating christian guilt and showing them how to life full and healthy lives by getting away from the ideals that caused so much self-hatred in the first place. I think a good PR piece on how much good the Sisters do worldwide would be a good thing.

I was a "victim" of these "Americans for Truth" idiots several years ago. I was illegally filmed sharing a personal moment with several hundred of "my closest friends", inside a private convention hall, with my clothes ON! The worst part of this whole adventure was that the guy had a hard on the whole time he was watching me! Fukin Jesus Perverts! I digress. As for the Folsom Street Fair, while we're at it let's put an end to Mardi Gras in New Orleans and every single "hell week" bash at every single Frat and Sorority house in every college in America. We might want to lock up all the hookers this year before the Political conventions come to town as well. Better ban Boy Scout camps as well, because I had (and GAVE) some of the best head of my life while at boy scout camp in my youth! Only one was a counselor, he was like two years older than me and I seduced HIM!
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are an incredible group of individuals who do more for the community in a single afternoon than most of these bible toting jackasses will do in their entire pitiful lives. They deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, not some prude's misguided moral condemnation! OK, I will say that the Photo depicting an artist's interpretation of DaVinci's The Last Supper may have been a bit over the top, but this USE TO BE America where we had freedom of speech and communication. I am sure that Nancy Pelosi realizes, as a business woman, that 400,000 gay men carry a HUGE amount of revenue for the city and if it gets banned...there goes millions of dollars....can "Americans for Truth" offer to replace that revenue with an event that lucrative?.....I thought not.

Woo hoo! Sing it from the mountain, Sister!

· Blatant anti-Christian bigotry in the form of the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence " – men who dress up in drag as mock nuns.


Whine, fucking whine.

Anti-christian bigotry is a First Amendment right.



If christianity is so great, why do christians need government to protect them from criticism?

Why do christians need public schools to teach christianity?

why do christians need government buildings to display their sacred verses like the ten commandments?

Thanks for your reply, I sent it to the Sisters.

Because some people who hide behind of the cover of "Christianity" to push their political agendas need Government backing to push their views down other's throats. I keep thinking of that scene in "Saved" where Mandy Moore throws her Bible at the other girl and yells, "I am just FULL of the Lord!!!"

DonMike!! I LOVE that movie!!

They choose Folsom because it's a very public event and shows some of the most extreme sides of our community. It's simply shocking for most straight folk to see people dragging one another around on leashes.

I don't know about your city's newspapers, but for years here in Toronto, post Pride Monday almost ways had a leather man in chaps with his ass hanging out. He was eventually replaced with topless lesbians with stars covering their nipples.

Let's face it, two people hold hands doesn't sell papers or get the Christians as riled up as a bunch of men in habits.

But the guys who paint their bodies and put on wigs to support their favorite team at football games are perfectly normal. And the drunk fuckers who leave a stadium and smash windows, get into bloody fist fights, and piss on the steps of storefronts are no way worse than a guy in a nun's habit.

I think it's time that the Sisters did a drag nun parody of the Fox News Last Supper! I would love to see Sister Kitty Catalyst do her best drag nun version of Bill O'Reilly, loofah and all! Sister Roma as Anne Coulter? Sister Zsa Zsa as Alan Coombs? Just a thought!

I could care less about the sisters and how they act in public, but having sex in open public whether straight or Gay is a bit much.

The thing is that this event has been going on for decades. And it's not like they have big orgies in the street, but it is some nasty, raunchy fun. And sure some very sexual things go on there, but nobody is getting hurt (well, only the ones who enjoy it and ask for it). But that's the point. None of the advertising makes it appear to be a family event. You can tell when you approach the area that it is highly sexually charged and there are people standing around the entrance in all manner of fetish attire. So why, WHY would people bring CHILDREN to this??? And then they have the audacity to say people were acting inappropriately with children around. You know, I'm not going to walk into a daycare center in my chaps and a harness with my ass hanging out, so don't bring your damn kids to a wild, kinky, leather street fair.

Its like getting a restraining order against someone and then intentionally going to the places to go forcing them to leave, just so you can say they are harassing you. That's the thing about these groups. They can't just be who they are and let other people be who they are as well, they have to try to force their views on everyone. What would they do if suddenly everyone actually did curtail to their tyranny and behaved the way they wanted? They'd be bored shitless without someone to harass.

The news footage I saw should some sexual activity, I'm not talking about restraints and the whips. Actual people walking around nude what appeared to be public streets and other forplay acts. Mostly were men but there were a few woman with men. Whether you agree with the Gay or straight lifestyle sex acts doesn't belong on the streets.

Maybe people brought their kids there for effect, I don't know, but what if they were tourists wandering or wanting to see a freak show? The sex acts on the streets by Gay men just justifies the straight comminity's opinion the all Gays are perverts.

Thing is that I've never seen young children at Folsom. I've seen babies in carriages but never anyone between the ages of 2 and 18.

You have to pay to get in..it's not like you'll see it just passing by on your way to the grocery store.

And yeah.. why the fuck do people bring their babies to an event that's SO obviously meant for adults?

Because they are retards, just like the dumb webmasters that bring their kids to the conventions, just like the idiots that take their kids to the Gay Days events at Disney.

There really should be a 'test' that needs to be passed before allowing some people to conceive.

If they WANT to see a Freak show, should the church protect them from that?

Nobody just "wanders" in.. you have to pay to get in and then walk about a quarter of a mile before you hit the fair grounds. Nobody sees anything if they don't wanna see it.

Here's an interesting question. rdynow, do you think of sex as a dirty and shameful thing? I, personally, think one of the biggest problems with this country is that the higher ups want to make sex and nudity to be seen as shameful and dirty but the truth is that sex is a beautiful thing. The human body is a beautiful thing. We celebrate these things in our industry. Sure, I don't think people should be having sex on a random public street but at a gathering that is meant to celebrate sexuality, sex and the human body people should be allowed to do what they want.

I think it's a shame that as a society we glorify violence while demonizing sex. I remember going to Three River's Stadium in Pittsburgh for a Pink Floyd concert. They knew people would be smoking pot and drinking so they set up a room with police and a judge and would literally go onto the grounds, arrest people, bring them upstairs and charge them. So many people got fines that night. Now, I'm not condoning drug use or illegal activity, however, it was ironic that at that same studio a few weeks earlier there was a huge football game where people got drunk, rowdy, tons of fights, smashed cars and violence happened because of the game and nothing was done about it.

The question posted is not interesting, if I thought sex or the human body was a shameful thing I am in the wrong business. The real question is sex be preformed in a public venue for all to see like the fair for children to view whether you pay to get in or not. We condemn this is our industry. If the fair was a gathering meant to celebrate sexuality and allow adults to have sex wherever they wanted no children should have been allowed. Have an ID check at the gate, does that take a brain surgeon?

Because the event is held on a public street they legally must allow anyone who wants to enter that right. Gates are set-up at all the access points and people with children are warned and discouraged from entering.

Unfortunately, there are some idiots who thinks it's okay to bring the kiddies to a fetish event. I have never seen kids between the ages of 2-18 either, but I have seen people pushing around strollers with babies.

Bottom line- they cannot legally exclude anyone from entering the fair grounds.

I would spin the situation

Americans For Truth SUPPORT Folsom with $ donations (Ticket sales go to who?)

You're right. It was a terribly boring question. My apologies. :cheekymonkey:

I actually saw photos of two gay dads who thought it would be "cute" to have their 4 year old adopted daughter wear a dog collar, dress her in all black, spike up her hair and bring her to Folsom Fair.

Plenty of people do that with their four-legged "pets", too.

I haven't really decided how I feel about that.

Discuss.
