I wouldn't put state against state exactly. People are either good, evil or indifferent and it depends on how *we* feel on a specific day as well. Some days i would fight a lion for anyone's rights. Other days i am maybe not so comfortable in my space to stand up for anyone's rights about anything. I see the glass as half full and know things are headed in the right direction. Years ago, these types of clips would never have even been thought about. Climbing hills is important.
That little guy that wrote that note? He gets a hug from me as well. He may not feel it...but i do.
Lovely post. Lovely thread. Thanks.

Wow, what a great video. I've found Texans to be friendly, approachable, open, and outspoken. So those results on that show don't surprise me that much. I really like the people in South Texas and I love living here despite Perry as Governor. I did NOT know that Texas can refuse service to gay people. I lived in Nebraska and that state can deny housing to anyone they perceive as gay. Its not about having a law that says housing or service can be denied. Its that there are no laws saying housing or service cannot be denied, at least in Nebraska. Texas does not deny gay couples from being foster parents or adopting, by the way. In fact, when me and Rufus looked into it a few years ago the people we met with were incredibly nice, open, and welcoming.
