I was born in NE Ohio but grew up in Lafayette, went to college at BSU in Muncie, and worked for a number of years at Purdue. But since 2002, I've lived in Sweden, which granted me residency based on my relationship with a Swede who just happened to be the same gender as me. I miss my family, but I don't miss Indiana.Shazzerhttp://shazzerspeak.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-52628397876141116522015-03-31T19:30:00.039-07:002015-03-31T19:30:00.039-07:00It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of...It is health that is real wealth and not <a href="http://www.ufgop.org/pdf/pieces" rel="nofollow">pieces</a> of gold and silver.

We sent emails. We called Pence's office so much in the days preceding his signature on the bill, that he began sending all calls to voicemail. Indiana spoke. Indiana was ignored. Now, we gather at the capital.<br /><br />Boycott Indiana? Absolutely. But remember who this bill hurts--the people who still (are stupid? poor? uncool enough to move?) live here.<br /><br />Twitter users can follow @open4serv to see businesses that are open to all, and some of which are LGBT owned and operated. Many also sport the Open for Service logo in their windows.<br /><br />Please remember those of us who are still fighting.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09591981716535134038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26871122.post-14521567056464618452015-03-30T13:10:41.553-07:002015-03-30T13:10:41.553-07:00While wholly disheartening and disgusting.

The Connecticut Gov. banned paid state travel to Indiana. This and large corporations refusing to do business with Indiana is a light. There ARE people who get it. Those people will win in the end. I have faith.

But I am also pissed as hell. I've never been super-political. But this? This insanity wrapped in hatred wrapped in S.B. 101? This moved me to drive from Bloomington to Indianapolis on Saturday to attend the anti-RFRA rally at the Statehouse, and I've never rallied for or against anything before. This law shall NOT stand. I encourage EVERYONE to Boycott Indiana--$$ are the only thing besides homophobia that moves Herr Pence and his ilk to action. And the $ win even over their hatred--if you saw Herr Pence on ABC Sunday, you know he is (as much as he will publicly) already backpedaling. He is an ass who also needs to go but that is a problem for another day. First this law needs to go.LLHoosiernoreply@blogger.com
