Over 500 Gather for Vigil Honoring Lesbian Hate Crime Victim
This article came from LGBTQ Nation.
More than 500 gather for vigil for lesbian brutalized in home invasion
LINCOLN, Neb. — Over 500 people gathered on the steps of the Nebraska State Capitol Sunday night to hold a vigil for a lesbian woman brutalized early Sunday morning in what local LGBT activists are calling a hate crime.

According to Lincoln, Neb., Police Captain Joe Wright, patrol officers responded to an address two blocks south of Lincoln High School in the downtown area, for a reported assault and house fire.
More than 500 people gather on the steps of the State Capitol in Lincoln, Neb. Sunday.
A friend described the cuts as “things carved on her body that can only be described as hate, that somebody can only be taught and we need to stop teaching it.”
A source to LGBTQ Nation said “the words ‘cunt,’ ‘fag’ and ‘dyke’ were carved onto her face and body, and that the assailants tried to set her house on fire.”
Lincoln fire department arson investigator Damon Robbins, told the local media that there was evidence that a match flame ignited vapors from a pool of gasoline on the woman’s floor, but the flash fire did not continue to burn and caused no noticeable damage to the house.
Friends said the men who assaulted her also spray painted anti-gay words in her basement, including “We found u dyke.” Friends called the attack a hate crime because the woman assaulted is a lesbian.
“When someone takes the time to handcuff someone with a zip tie and carve derogatory comments or words into somebody else’s body, that’s sheer hate and at this point, this is a hate crime,” the friend said.
“Our hearts go out to the victim, her family and close friends,” said Tyler Richard, president of Outlinc, a group that supports LGBT people in Lincoln. “Many in our community are understandably experiencing a great deal of sadness, anger and confusion. We look to our entire community to pull together in this difficult time, ” he said.
The assault has sparked outrage in Lincoln’s LGBT community, which is already galvanized by the ongoing debate over the city’s fairness amendment — a proposal to ban discrimination in housing and employment based on a person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. The measure is now on a ballot referendum for this November.
Karen Bratton-Cranford, president of the LGBT advocacy group Star City Pride, took the microphone at Sunday night’s vigil to urge those gathered to act with respect and to refrain from seeking revenge, reported the Lincoln Star-Journal.
“Don’t go out and act on your own,” she said. “Don’t give them the power to control your actions.”
Police have not yet ruled the attack a hate crime, and Lincoln’s Police Chief Jim Peschong, refused to comment, citing an ongoing criminal investigation.
Officials told LGBTQ Nation late Sunday evening that no arrests had been made. The victim has been treated for her wounds and is staying with friends.
Nebraska has a hate crimes statute that covers crimes motivated by a victim’s sexual orientation. Federal authorities also may have jurisdiction over the crime as a result of the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
Update, 7/23/12:
Lincoln police have now classified the attack as a hate crime due to the victim’s sexual orientation.
“I don’t want to minimize this and make it a political issue, because it was a horrible thing that happened in our community, and it saddens me that this happened,” City Councilmen Carl Eskridge told LGBTQ Nation on Monday. “It is because of events like this we need to pass the fairness ordinance, and that is why I introduced it.”
“It’s critically important that we find a common voice, for all of us to come together to improve the community,” he said.
Fred Sainz, Vice President of Communications for the Human Rights Campaign, called the attack “a jarring reminder that we have much work to do in creating environments where all members of our community feel safe living honestly and openly, and where crimes motivated by one’s sexual orientation or gender identity are never tolerated.”

Ladygasm Colibri Sex Toy Review
This smooth purple silicone vibrator arrived in a sturdy black lidded box. The top portion of the box holds the vibrator in a fitted compartment, while the bottom portion holds the charger. Inside the box there is also a small storage bag, which is nice option if you don't plan on storing it in the original box.
Although the Colibri didn't come with instructions, it was easy to figure out how to charge it. You just lift the small purple flap on the end and plug in the charger...after a few hours, it is ready to go.
The ergonomic shape of this vibrator makes it really easy to use, and if you look at the design in the photo above, you can see how it can cradle your clit perfectly. The four control buttons are located on the top of the vibrator. The up and down arrows control the vibration modes and the + and - buttons change the speed. All together there are 7 different modes with 4 different intensities per mode, making this a good fit for those who prefer a medium intensity all the way up to those who like something stronger.
The Colibri is made out of smooth medical grade silicone, which makes it flexible, easy to clean and latex free. And as an added bonus, the Colibri is waterproof, so you can take it with you in the tub or shower.
Pros:
- Small
- Quiet
- Different intensities
- Rechargeable (love this!!!)
- Feels Amazing
- Easy to clean
- Waterproof
- Can be used internally as well as externally
Cons
- I wish it came with instructions
Conclusion
This is not your average clit vibrator...and with it's unique shape and different intensity levels,I think it gives you a lot of freedom to get creative with how you use it...use your imagination and have some fun!
If you would like to check out the Colibri, or any of the other unique female sex toys available at Ladygasm, visit their website at www.ladygasm.com and be sure to use our special discount code Lesbian20 and you will receive 20% off any purchase.

NY Judge Take DOMA Into Her Own Hands
From WND
by Michael F. Haverluck
A judge in New York has taken advocacy for normalization of same-sex
“marriage” to the next level, ruling this week that a major component of
the federal Defense of Marriage Act is unconstitutional because it
doesn’t provide the same financial benefits for homosexuals and
lesbians.
District Judge Barbara Jones ruled that a federal law defining
marriage as a legal union between a man and a woman conflicts with the
U.S. Constitution.
DOMA “intrude[s] upon the states’ business of regulating domestic
relations,” Jones stated in her decision this week. “That incursion
skirts important principles of federalism and therefore cannot be
legitimate, in this court’s view.”
A number of judges have ruled in favor of same-sex marriage since the
Obama administration said it would refuse to defend DOMA. After
explaining his views on the issue were “evolving,” President Obama
recently announced be personally supports same-sex marriage.
“President Obama has been actively promoting an agenda to undermine the nation’s marriage laws,” said Liberty Counsel founder and Chairman Mat Staver. “When you weaken the family, as President Obama is doing by his policies, you weaken society.”
The White House’s increased support of same-sex marriage apparently
has emboldened more people to challenge laws under the federal DOMA in
court.
In 2010, Edith Windsor filed the New York suit against the government
to get back $363,053 that she was required to pay in federal tax on her
deceased partner’s estate. The two were “married” as a same-sex couple
in Canada two years before Windsor’s partner died in 2009. Windsor sued
because she was ineligible to claim the unlimited marital deduction.
Striking down federal law, Jones included in her ruling that the
government must reimburse Windsor the entire amount she was legally
obligated to pay in estate tax.
Supporters of the homosexual agenda are hoping that the Empire State’s ruling against DOMA is more than a fad.
“[The decision is] another example of the trend of the judiciary
continuing to see that treating same-sex couples differently than their
heterosexual counterparts is not only wrong but goes against the laws of
equality and justice here in the United States,” said Marriage Equality
USA Executive Director Brian Silva.
The American Civil Liberties Union has endorsed the normalization of homosexual behavior.
“[This] adds to what has become an avalanche of decisions that DOMA
can’t survive even the lowest level of scrutiny by the courts,”
commented the ACLU director of the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender
Project, James Esseks.
New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman applauded
Wednesday’s ruling, calling it “a major step forward in the fight of
equality.”
The decision came less than a week after a similar First Circuit
ruling was issued in Boston that declared as unconstitutional a section
of DOMA that reserved federal benefits only for couples in marriages
that are between one man and one woman. On May 31, the federal court of
appeals judge in Massachusetts – which in 2004 became the first state to
allow same-sex marriage – affirmed a 2010 decision made by a federal
judge.
But Staver says that this battle over DOMA is far from over, as the
U.S. Court of Appeals indicates that the U.S. Supreme Court will have
the final say in the Bay State’s matter.
“We have done our best to discern the direction of these precedents,
but only the Supreme Court can finally decide this unique case,” Staver
explained regarding the final outcome of the Massachusetts case, which
he believes has been poorly judged.
“This ruling makes no sense. A state cannot dictate the kind of
benefits the federal government must provide,” contested Staver. “If a
state recognizes polygamy, does that mean that the federal government
must also recognize multiple spouses? Absolutely not! This decision is
the proverbial tail wagging the dog.”
Yet these types of decisions aren’t only seen on the East Coast. The
tide of judicial activism to abolish marriage protections began earlier
this year when a couple of federal judges in California ruled that DOMA
works to violate “married” same-sex couples’ due-process rights. With
the push over the years to legalize same-sex marriage much legislation
has taken place across the United States.
Since 1996, more than 30 states have approved and instituted amendments
to protect marriage as between one man and one woman, while eight
states allow – or are in the final stages of allowing – same-sex
marriage, including Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut,
New York, Iowa, Maryland and Washington state, as well as Washington,
D.C. Legislation allowing same-sex marriage is not yet in effect in the
latter two states, where referendums could determine their final fate.
Despite all of the political and judicial maneuverings over same-sex
marriage that are taking place just months from this year’s presidential
election, pro-family advocates want America to remember the most
important thing at stake.
“Children fare best when raised with a mom and a dad,” Staver said.
“Redefining marriage to something it was not intended to be weakens the
family and is not in the best interest of children or society.”
