no its not the day all the men here get locked out lol
Day without a Gay- CALL IN GAY!
We are calling for a nationwide strike and economic boycott by all Gays and Lesbians AND OUR ALLIES, whether straight, bisexual or transgendered, on December 10th, 2008, International Human Rights Day. All across the United States starting at December 10th 2008 at 12am and ending December 11th, 2008 at 12am.
WHY SHOULD WE DO IT?
Because LGBT workers, buisness owners, consumers and taxpayers contribute over $700 billion to the U.S. economy each year and should not be treated as second class citizens.
Because general strikes and economic boycotts are a powerful weapon in the history of non-violent protests.
See http://www.
pbs. org/now/society/boycott. html.
For many of those protesters, their actions came at a cost, but we must be willing to make sacrifices to fight for equal rights, including the right to marry.
Because marriage should be a Right for all Americans, regardless of gender, race OR religion.
Because until ALL are equal, NONE are equal.
WHAT SHOULD WE DO?
Strike: call in gay, shut down your business, take the day off.
Boycott: don't buy anything or spend any money.
Participate: visit www. daywithoutagay. org for a list of volunteer and/or protest opportunities.
Communicate: we need everyones support! Get the word out.
Copy and paste this into your blogs, post it in a bulletin, or email it to everyone you know!
Time to take a stand and make a difference!
