WATCH Wonder Kid, Will Phillips speak at the "Big Commit" Rally in D.C.

Interesting Quote: American Family Association's President Tim Wildmon

“It’s shameful that adults would abuse a brain-washed child in this way. He’s obviously just parroting the nonsense he’s been told by manipulative adults. For gay activists to trot out this child and make him the poster child for promoting unnatural sexual expression is a form of child abuse.”

Tom believes that Will Phillips being the grand marshal of the Northwest Arkansas pride parade is child abuse.

Finally, Something Inspired from the Equality March... GetEQUAL

I am happy to hear about this, because I was beginning... well, really I was already thinking the Equality March didn't move much forward, but it inspired a new group...

GetEQUAL

Our mission at GetEQUAL is simple: to create a movement of everyday people—lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and straight—who are dedicated to bringing about full legal and social equality. We believe there are millions of Americans who are tired of waiting and are ready to act. Our goal is to serve and grow this constituency by helping them take strategic, coordinated, bold action to demand equality, and to hold accountable those who stand in the way.

We know it will take all of us working together to reach our goals, so we seek to create a broad and inclusive community. GetEQUAL will bring together people of every sex, gender, race, class, age, ability, look, religion, family status, or citizenship; those who can contribute in small ways, and those who are able to put themselves on the line. United, we can build a more powerful movement to demand change. We invite you to join us, and ask your friends and family to do the same.

Okay, that's cute, but what sealed the deal for me is this clip of the wonder kid, 10-year-old Will Phillips.

So I hope hey can get this party started.

Will Phillips speaks about his stance on Liberty for All

Great kid!

A 10 year-old will Not say the Pledge of Allegiance until we have full Equality

Will Phillips won't pledge allegiance to our country until we (LGBT folks) get full rights.

“I've always tried to analyze things because I want to be lawyer,” Will said. “I really don't feel that there's currently liberty and justice for all.”

After asking his parents whether it was against the law not to stand for the pledge, Will decided to do something. On Monday, Oct. 5, when the other kids in his class stood up to recite the pledge of allegiance, he remained sitting down. The class had a substitute teacher that week, a retired educator from the district, who knew Will's mother and grandmother. Though the substitute tried to make him stand up, he respectfully refused. He did it again the next day, and the next day. Each day, the substitute got a little more cross with him. On Thursday, it finally came to a head. The teacher, Will said, told him that she knew his mother and grandmother, and they would want him to stand and say the pledge.

“She got a lot more angry and raised her voice and brought my mom and my grandma up,” Will said. “I was fuming and was too furious to really pay attention to what she was saying. After a few minutes, I said, ‘With all due respect, ma'am, you can go jump off a bridge.' ”

Wow, I think we can all learn something from this kid.
