Action Plan For Local Anti Marriage Equality City Council Candidate Steven Neal

Okay Folks. We promised we wouldn’t drop the ball on this one and we haven’t.  This morning we posted a story on Long Beach City Council candidate Steven Neal. For those of you not in the know Mr. Neal made local headlines regarding anti-gay marriage statements he made in a local publication.

After consulting with some of more politically and protest savvy friends and advisors, we’ve decided the best action to take is to first contact Mr. Neal’s office and ask for some clarification regarding his statements about same-sex marriage and LGBT lifestyle being a choice.

Based on advice we agree that it is only fair and proper that Mr. Neal be given the chance to clarify his statements before anymore action is to be made on our behalf.
