It's a bit difficult for me to write about projects I've started, especially projects that were started for personal reasons. On November 12, I created an LGBT community designed to: (a) promote companies and organizations that support the LGBT community, (b) bring the LGBT community together with our straight supporters - in one place, and (c) make public any companies and organizations that support anti-gay legislation.
I had a lengthy discussion with a Republican gay male friend and he said the following, "I just don't think this country is ready for gay marriage - and protesting won't help us." Apparently, the GOP has him brainwashed into believing that protesting is a waste of time. Tell that to all of the Blacks who marched alongside Dr. King and lived long enough to witness history on November 4, 2008.
GayWallet.com is a peaceful protest. It is a modern-day movement that utilizes technology from the 21st century -- the internet and social media web sites. Gay Americans are taxpaying Americans who deserve full and equal rights. If we don't receive full and equal rights, then we shouldn't have the same economic responsibilities as heterosexual taxpayers.
Gay Americans buys goods and services. We spend our money on cars and houses. Our tax dollars are used for schools and roads and social services. We deserve nothing less than equality. If a company or an organization wants to help right-wing religious fanatics strip us of our equal rights, it's only fair that we know who those companies are so we can spend our money elsewhere.
