I went to a Byrd Park neighborhood block party Monday. A woman was at a table gathering signatures opposing the Virginia constitutional amendment against gay marriage. I told her I was sitting this one out because the gays in the state didn't support my campaign against state sodomy laws. I told her I didn't appreciate Jon Klein of Diversity Thrift, one of the leaders of the Richmond, Virginia gay community, hitting on me when he knew I was straight. No means no. That's rude, and will get your ass kicked in some places - killed in others. I also didn't appreciate the obstructionist attitude of the gay lobbyist to the General Ass-embly. The woman gathering signatures said her lesbian friends didn't hit on her. I had to bite my tongue to stop from suggesting she get a decent haircut, develop a fashion sense, lose weight, go to the gym, and use makeup. Then get back to me with a progress report on her lesbian friends.
All this whining by gays about how biology is destiny, yet gays can't resist trying to convert people. And then they wonder why they lose amendment votes. To paraphrase Academy Award winner and recent Hollywood Walk of Famer Jamie Foxx in "The Truth about Cats and Dogs," the problem is they're not letting their brain do their thinking.
Style Weekly: "the politics of fear and a growing racial divide still cripple Richmond [Virginia]." Mayor Douglas Wilder: "a cesspool of corruption and inefficiency." Ninth most dangerous city in the US. The state claims that "Virginia is for lovers" but the General Assembly passed a law "which some contend is the most anti-gay legislation in the country." (Style Weekly) And don't get me started on Henhicko County, Native American for "land of the hicks." Now at www.richmondsucks.com.

About Me
- Chris Martin
- "...the quintessential everyman, he's a little bit of everything that we're all striving for... mostly the search for the truth in our lives. From poignant notions of love to our own inescapable lascivious tendencies, from mundane to the outlandish, on that journey we face tough questions, but even tougher decisions. He'll take you on his journey and back, he won't promise you enlightenment (who can?), but you can at least be assured of a good time. Thanks..." - boyzco
