Semen Latte Pastor Wants To Boycott Every Single “Sodomite-Friendly” Business In America

Semen Latte Pastor Wants To Boycott Every Single “Sodomite-Friendly” Business In America

james_david_manningPastor James David Manning of the Atlah Worldwide Missionary Church in Harlem is at it again. Earlier this week he uploaded a video to his YouTube channel announcing his plans to boycott every single company in the United States of America that “accept sodomites.”

“I want to call for a national boycott against sodomy in America,” Manning, who believes gay people are cannibals, proclaimed in his latest video. “Almighty God has revealed to me that we are in a mega majority, those of us who are Bible believers. I want to call for a boycott, and here’s the level at which the boycott should be understood!”

Manning, who once claimed Starbucks makes lattes out of semen to appeal to gay men, went on to issue the following call to action: “If you know of a business that is owned by Sodomites, for instance Tylenol… we’re not going to buy Tylenol anymore!”

“There are many others,” he continued. “General Mills and many other organizations that will out themselves as being sodomite-friendly. We need to understand that we can boycott them!”

The irony, of course, is that Manning uploaded his video to YouTube, a pro-gay company owned by Google that, earlier this year, was one of 379 major businesses to sign a Supreme Court employers’ brief calling for marriage equality.

Good luck with that boycott, Pastor Manning.

Bernie Sanders Feels The Bern and Busts a Move on ‘Ellen’ – WATCH

Bernie Sanders Feels The Bern and Busts a Move on ‘Ellen’ – WATCH

 

bernie sanders

Bernie Sanders appeared on The Ellen Show today and put to rest questions of whether he would join in the daytime talkshow host’s favorite pastime: dancing. Dance, he did, and to the tune of “Disco Inferno” no less.

Bern, baby, Bern.

Presidential candidate @BernieSanders​ is ready for his entrance onto my show.

— Ellen DeGeneres (@TheEllenShow) October 15, 2015

The interview with Ellen was meant to show off Sanders’ softer side. NPR reports on some of the hot topics the pair touched on:

— What Republican presidential candidate he’d want to be stuck on a deserted island with. After a long pause, he said, “Marco Rubio; he’s used to the sun.” Rubio’s from Florida.

— If he was a flavor of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream (based in Burlington, Vt., where Sanders is from), what would he be called? “Burn, Bernie, Burn.” “So, it would be hot and spicy ice cream?” DeGeneres joked.

— Whether he had ever been in handcuffs. “Yes,” he said quickly, before pausing and following up, “I don’t know exactly what you mean by that.” Well, then. “When I was young, I was involved in a civil rights demonstration, and I was arrested,” Sanders clarified. “All right, let’s call it a civil-rights demonstration,” DeGeneres quipped.

Watch Sanders dance and chat with Ellen, below:

Michael Sam And Vito Cammisano Are Proud To 'Go Purple' For Spirit Day

Michael Sam And Vito Cammisano Are Proud To 'Go Purple' For Spirit Day

Michael Sam and Vito Cammisano have teamed up for a new video explaining why they’re “going purple” for Spirit Day

The former couple are all smiles in the new clip, which they hope will inspire viewers to show their support for bullied lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youth on Oct. 15 by wearing purple. 

“As someone who was once bullied, I think it’s very important that we tackle this issue,” Sam, who became the first openly gay man to be drafted by the NFL last year, says in the clip. “So many kids have reached out to me, talking about how they’ve been bullied.” 

Cammisano shares those sentiments, adding, “I never want any young person to feel like they can’t be comfortable being who they are.” 

Spirit Day was established in response to a widely-publicized rash of LGBT youth suicides, including that of Tyler Clementi, in 2010. Since then, supporters have been encouraged to wear purple, which symbolizes “spirit” on the rainbow flag, in support of bullied youth on Oct. 15 each year.

Open Question: Why isn't there any porn without swear words?

Open Question: Why isn't there any porn without swear words?
There’s so much porn on the Internet – for heterosexual people, for LGBT people, for all kinds of fetishists but why isn’t there any porn without swearing? Every porn site is filled with swear words – in both descriptions and videos. I understand almost everyone likes profanity very much but there should be at least one porn site without swear words. ALL minorities’ preferences should be acknowledged.

I’m a very young heterosexual adult man and I’m weird, very shy and I lack ALL social skills. I have only one friend whom I met accidentaly on the Internet. She leaves far away so we don’t have many opportunities to meet. And we both don’t want to have a romantic/sexual relationship with each other. I don’t have any other friends and neither have I a girlfriend. People don’t know me so no one wants to have sex with me which causes me a great suffering. That’s why I’d like to satisfy my needs in a different way. Masturbation is not enough. And I don’t want to have sex with prostitutes.

I’m a good person so I don’t want to rape anyone, watching porn isn’t wrong. But I hate swear words so much that I can’t stand those websites and videos. I can only fantasize on my own. Please help.

BREAKING: Two Of The Suspected Philly Hate Attackers Will Not Be Serving Jail Time

BREAKING: Two Of The Suspected Philly Hate Attackers Will Not Be Serving Jail Time

gay-bashing-suspects-harrigan-knott-williams-940x540Kathryn Knott, Philip Williams, and Kevin Harrigan were offered a plea deal that includes community service and probation, but no jail time, reports The New Civil Rights Movement.

The trio of twenty-somethings were charged in a brutal September 11, 2014 attack of a gay couple in Philadelphia that left one of the men hospitalized with a broken jaw, which needed to be wired shut for almost two months.

Arrested on September 24, 2014, the accused were charged with aggravated assault, simple assault and recklessly endangering another person. Williams and Harrigan were charged with conspiracy, but not Knott.

Philly Gay News reports that Williams and Harrigan accepted a plea deal today in court, which included community service and probation but no jail time.

Kathryn Knott reportedly rejected the deal and will be standing trial.

Victor Fiorillo at Philadelphia Magazine reports: “Kevin Harrigan and Philip Williams pleaded guilty to one count each of conspiracy and aggravated assault. Neither man will spend a day in jail. The guilty plea was given in exchange for a sentence of probation.”

Knott didn’t plead guilty. She’ll go to trial October 30.

On Facebook, WXPN’s Robert Drake noted that Harrigan will receive three years probation and Williams five years. Both will have to perform 200 hours each community service at an LGBT facility and cannot enter Center City until their probation has expired.

Local ABC News Affiliate WPVI added, “The plea deal was at the wish of the victims, according to the district attorney’s office. The victims said they felt safe in Center City before the attack.”
