Hey, no problem. I’m sure it was just wishful thinking on the part of someone that is passionate about the movement.

Thanks for the correction Damien. I knew I must have been miscounting.

Well, 600, that is interesting. I would love to beleive that but I was there too and I’m going to have to call BS. I certainly wish there were 600 that showed up but alas I would
Estimate it at around 125-175. I think less at the monument. Might not be such a good idea do inflate numbers like that. I will say it was a decent and very active and fired up crowd. I was happy to be there.

Easily over 600 actually.. you can look at pictures online that have more than a hundred people in them.. why all the nastiness, DD?

Where do you get the 71 total? I was not there, but saw video coverage and counted more than 71 people easily.

There were only 71 people at this rally – not “hundreds.” Not sure why the Dallas Voice is lying about Blake’s little business, but I was nearby with a friend. We were curious how many people would show up, so we counted them…. all 71 of them.

Is Queer Liberaction a non-proift or is this Blakes way to make a living? Some kind of gay-rights-pimp?

Of course you can use it! We have DirecTV. Can we see it there, too? If so, what channel?

Excellently and elequently put, Jon…

I hear ya loud and clear. In order to have a “good” conversation, there needs to be the possibility and openness of “conversion.” Wonderfully put! Can I use that on the show?

I only mentioned THE VIEW cause it’s a quick, one sentence way to describe my talk show. I’m always open to hearing different views of issues. Sometimes I agree, sometimes not, but that’s precisely why I created the show…to have people begin conversations about different gay issues.

I hope you tune in tonight! Channel 95 at 8pm (Time Warner Cable). It’s called THE 10%. : )
