Paint em' Pink Friday! IT's a PINK-TOE-Palozza!

I think its appropriate given all the stupidity following the J.Crew ad, we celebrate transgenderism with everyone including arachnids.


What better way than to join with the other pinkies on facebook painting their toes PINK this Friday!

Then email me a picture to kellibusey@yahoo.com and I'll post it up with all the other pinkness!
I'm so lucky to have a deadly spider son who's favorite color is pink:) He saw the
Daily show and and asked me to paint his toes pink. Our first submission FOR PINK TOE PALOZZA!

Immigration detainee Alexis Cortez-Reyna held in solitary "so you can learn not to be a faggot"

Source Chiacgo Tribune:
WASHINGTON— For 22 hours a day, Alejandro Cortez-Reyna, who is transgender, was confined to a 5-by-9-foot cell in Immigration custody. Eventually the time out of the cell was reduced to about 45 minutes.

When Cortez-Reyna once asked why dayroom time for gay or transgender immigrants at the Theo Lacy facility in California was cut to less than two hours, a guard responded, "Because you need to learn not to be a faggot."

The guard's response is part of a civil rights complaint filed Wednesday on behalf of Cortez-Reyna and 12 others. It alleges systemic abuse and neglect of gay and transgender immigrants while in custody at facilities owned or contracted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Chicago-based Heartland Alliance National Immigrant Justice Center filed the action with the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Civil Rights and Civil Liberties and Inspector General's Office.
