Hey, here's something the gang that wants to kick out the MCPS school board hasn't thought of yet. They could do like the American Family Association (motto: "Promoting Traditional Family Values") did, and send letters with explicit descriptions of gay sexual behaviors to 65,000 people's homes.

A sexually explicit letter sent to 65,000 homes in Jefferson County is causing outrage, not only in neighborhoods where it was distributed, but also among members of the Louisville Metro Council. The letter urges people to ask their council representative to vote against the "Fairness Ordinance." And as WAVE 3's Maureen Kyle reports, the letter also targets a religious group.

The language is explicit and the message is clear. "I think its very vindictive -- hateful," says Karen Carpenter. She's one of the 65,000 people who received the literature from Frank Simon with the American Family Association of Kentucky. Residents Outraged After Sexually Explicit Letter Sent To 65,000 Homes

See, the Louisville Metro Council is discussing a local civil rights ordinance, and the issue is whether to include reference to homosexuals in it. Interestingly, Martin Luther King's niece, Alveda King, who is shown in the picture here at the left, argues that gays should not be protected. She:

told the council that gays and lesbians don't deserve the civil-rights protections because homosexuality is not "an immutable characteristic" like skin color or ethnicity.

"I feel it is unfortunate to put these two issues (civil rights based on sexual orientation and civil rights based on skin color) together," said King, who came from Atlanta to support ordinance opponents. 'Fairness' fight is in spotlight

It should be noted that King's wife, Coretta Scott King, has said that King himself would have supported the fight for gay rights, if he were alive: Snatching A Piece of King’s Legacy

Hey, this is kind of interesting:

Those who oppose the provisions that ban discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity brought in four people from out of town to talk about the ordinance.

Besides King, they were a former lesbian who now works for the conservative group Focus on the Family, a lawyer from Cincinnati affiliated with social conservative groups and a counseling professor from Pennsylvania who said homosexuality is a choice.

I'll bet I know who that counseling professor was. I'll bet he's the same guy that wrote a 35-page "white paper" criticizing the new MCPS sex education curriculum, which is now posted prominently on the RecallMontgomerySchoolBoard.com web site. The newspaper doesn't say, but I'll just betcha. This guy is on a mission.

The language in this letter also leaves some Metro Council Members asking which group will be targeted next?

"It definitely shows that bigotry is alive and well in the city of Louisville," Weston said.

Well, folks, sorry to say, but it's not exactly unique to your area.
