This is probably already making the rounds...

but it's worth seeing more than once. I love Peter. What a great way of handling this - especially the note to thank the guy for helping to raise funds! hahahaha

An Urgent Message from Peter Paige

I'm writing you because I just learned that the "reverend" from hell, Fred
Phelps, is coming to town on Saturday to "conduct an outdoor religious
service in fag-ridden Los Angeles."

This is the same guy with the "God Hates Fags" website who protested the
funeral of Matthew Shepard and shows up with "Thank God for AIDS" signs at the
funerals of others. And now he's coming to West Hollywood to spew his venom.

Let's (literally) send Phelps a message, not by confronting him and giving
him more publicity, but by turning his hate speech into something positive for
our community.

He's planning to be at the intersection of Santa Monica and San Vicente for
3 hours, starting at 1:30 on Saturday. I'd love for everyone who is as
disgusted by him as I am to pledge at least $10 to the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center -
more if you can - for every hour he is going to be here spouting hate.

The Center will earmark the money for its homeless youth services and after
he leaves, I'm going to personally send Fred a message thanking him for
helping us raise money to support LGBT youth. I'd love to tell him he helped us
raise thousands!

Thanks for clicking here [ http://tinyurl.com/3a9tsn ] to make a donation and
help me send him that message.

Best,

Peter

I can't believe I don't have any pride icons. :-/
