I was thrilled to hear that Wausau Wisconsin might actually be having a Gay Pride parade this year. I've never heard of one being in central or northern Wisconsin in a smaller city like that. An anti-gay blog posted links to the mayor's email, and all of the council members so that their followers could email them and tell them not to support it. I grabbed them all and thanked and congratulated them for their support. *grin*
I almost posted on the blog a thank you for providing the emails so I could support it. But I decided I didn't want to deal with the comments, hate and wank.
Here is my email and the addresses, if anyone else wants to support it as well:
I heard about the possible Gay Pride event coming to Wausau and couldn't be happier to hear that a city in Northern Wisconsin is moving towards a more open and accepting attidute.
Thank you for your support on this event, you are showing how city leaders should act. Support of ALL of your residents should be your top priority.
Great Job!
