July 30 - Jamaica and Mt. Kisco, New York

Will the video camera survive? It looks like we will need to get a new video camera. The one we currently have has suffered a number of harsh blows by pro-homosexual advocates. The viewing screen no longer works. If you remember, it was hit by a woman who assaulted Mr. Michael Shibler … Read more

July 29 – Long Island, New York

July 29 - Long Island, New York 3

Forecast for the day: rain. As you can imagine, rain can ruin a demonstration, not because we fear getting a little wet, but because our cardboard signs would fall apart.
