Budget Pink Pork for Religious AIDS Memorial Draws Lawsuit Threat
Despite its $38 billion deficit, the State of California is considering co-funding a $500,000 gay AIDS memorial, a representation of the pagan god Quetzalcoatal. The high-priced religious monument, know officially as The Wall Las Memorias, is slated to be erected in a childrens park in a heavily Hispanic and low-income section of Los Angeles.
The project is part of the current budget being debated in the capitol, but residents near the affected park want the project cancelled. They claim the city of Los Angeles planned and approved the monument in secret meetings (in violation of state open meetings law) in order to prevent local residents from opposing their plans. They also accuse state legislators of being unwilling to buck the powerful gay lobby on an item that is widely recognized as so-called pink pork, (i.e. public funding for special-interest gay projects).
Outraged at being marginalized, opponents of the memorial have now threatened to sue the State of California and the City of Los Angeles if state legislators approve funding for it.
On their behalf, litigation counsel Richard Ackerman of the Sacramento-based Pro-Family Law Center has drafted a letter outlining the governments legal liability if it endorses or participates in the creation of a religious monument. The letter, a copy of which was hand-delivered to legislators offices on Thursday morning, promises immediate litigation in federal court if the budget is approved and signed with the AIDS memorial line item intact.
This is just plain corrupt, said PFLC President Scott Lively. I think most Californians could think of much better uses for that money than building a monument to dead victims of voluntary gay sex and IV drug use. To make matters worse, the monument is religious in nature, honoring a pagan god once worshipped with human sacrifice. The same crowd that wants this religious monument also wants to remove under God from our Pledge of Allegiance. The hypocrisy is galling, but fortunately the law is on our side.
That's what I want to know. It will help if "Gay" Davis gets recalled. Hang in there, pal. (I'm stuck here, too.)
Look on the bright side. Enjoy all the fabulous things that The Golden State has to offer: beaches, mountains, fabulous fruit and vegetables, wine--the list goes on and on. Take your kids to the museums, on field trips, etc., talk to them, teach them all the things you love, suppliment their education.
When you have time off, go to Big Sur and Mount Shasta. Esalen is fabulous any time of the year. On the way to Mount Shasta, stop by The Olive Pit. When you get there, spend a night or two at Squaw Meadow (be sure it's summertime, and still bring warm clothes). If you bring a friend, you might want to drop by Indian Hot Springs for a day of outdoor jaccuzing in the gorgeous California sun.
Eat morrels and chanterelles until they're coming out your ears. It's hard to get them in many parts of the country.
In other words, live it up while you're there.
When the 10 years are up, you will be out of college and there will be jobs. Furthermore, having done California, you can move somewhere else and do that! As fabulous as California is, there are many places just as fabulous. You might like to try Hawaii, the Georgia coast, the Smoaky Mountains, Florida, New York City, New England, Texas, just to mention a few. By then, your children will be getting old enough to visit you or maybe go to college where you live.
Don't let the "Liberal" bastards get you down--it's what they want; they're not worth it; and if they do, they win.
As long as you're stuck in sunny California, you might as well look on the sunny side.
I hope this helps!
You're welcome,
Dear Abb...oops! I mean Savage Beast
