DONATE QUEER DOLLARS TO PROTEST SALVATION ARMY'S ANTI-GAY VENDETTA

Action Alert: Queer Dollar Campaign Against the Salvation Army Kicks Off Just In Time For The Holidays.

Cleveland - In response to the Salvation Army's recent actions Anti Racist Action of Cleveland announces the "Queer Dollars Campaign." Queer Dollars is a grass root, totally anonymous, non-confrontational way to protest against the Salvation Army's vendetta against Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender people.

"We were looking for an effective way in which individuals could express their disappointment to the Salvation Army for their deference to anti-gay pressure organizations," said ARA spokesperson Marcellus Watts. "We came up with the idea of donating Queer Dollars. We hope the idea catches on all over the country. Anyone who would like to protest can stuff the red kettles everytime they encounter a bell-ringing Salvation Army volunteer. "

Queer Dollars are "as queer as a 3 dollar bill," according to Watts. Printed on only one side, and bearing the number 3 on all four corners, the fake money has a message for the Salvation Army which reads. "When the Salvation Army ends its policy of religious bigotry against Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender people, then, and only then will this be a real dollar bill."

Queer Dollars may be downloaded and printed out at counterfeit dollars.

The Salvation Army recently rescinded their decision to offer health care benefits to domestic partners of its employees, bowing to pressure from anti-gay organizations. In July, the Washington Post reported that the Salvation Army in exchange for the group's support on the Bush administration's faith-based initiative, wanted the administration to shield religious charities that receive federal funds from city and statewide ordinances that protect gays and lesbians from discrimination. Pressure from civil rights groups and members of Congress convinced the White House not to pursue the discriminatory regulation sought by the Salvation Army.

"The Salvation Army has declared war against Gays." Said Watts. "We hope to send them a message loud and clear, that we are not going to continue to donate our money to a bigoted charity that publicly practices divisive and discriminatory policies."

Fighting oppresion through direct action and education, Anti-Racist Action (ARA) is a network of youth based anti-racist groups across the U.S. and 9 other countries dedicated to fighting all forms of racism.

The Cleveland ARA was formed in the summer of 1999 for the purpose of promoting public awareness, confronting discrimination, educating the public, and speaking out about, and building a grass roots movement against hate crimes, racism, sexism, anti-semitism, homophobia, and discrimination against the disabled, the oldest and the youngest in our society. Our basis of unity is "to expose, oppose, and confront racist organizing and the far-right agenda, through education, mass action, and support of broader anti-racist struggles." We work to educate ourself and others about prejudice, discrimination, and hate crimes.

War is War. Fight back by cutting off funding for their essential programs. Or Counterfeit Aids drugs which ever is permitted.

Until now I have been troubled with who to donate to this year. Thanks to this article, I will be contributing to the Salvation Army.

I had a friend from Seattle that took his $5.00 parking ticket with him to San Diego. The ticket came with a self-addressed envelope with postage paid for the city. He wrote a check of $0.01 and put 499 pennies into the envelope. The check was to ensure they received the payment.

Gives a whole new meaning to "queer as a 3 dollar bill."

Sodomites care less about the people who the salvation army serves. They care more about the sick orgies of sin then the people who suffer in this country.

I am so thrilled to see that I am not alone in my concerns for my kids and what's going on, what with all these gay books in schools and special rules pertaining to gays. I am just so fed up with it all, and I was beginning to think I was alone. The more I read, the worse it gets, and I just can't help reading to know what I'm facing. Someone has to protect my kids, and sure as heck isn't the gay organizations who tell kids it's all safe and healthy and "normal", but never once mention the SERIOUS RISKS. It isn't normal and it isn't by any means healthy. Thanks to FreeRepublic and thanks to you all. You're such a support to me. And the idea of buying the "Queer Money" is such a good one.

So the salvation army cannot have its preferences but gays can... suuuuuuuuuure, at least the salvation army is not looking at whether someone is pretty or not, gays are (and so did the nazies obsess on physical features). Talk about who needs to repent. Sorry, the salvation army ain't the KKK and does not support racist people who "marry" solely for physical preferences.

War in AFGHANISTAN! Hell it's time to take up big time against these queer activists. These jerks are fighting against one of the finest charities. I wonder how the liberal media handles this. Absolutely evil! It's bad when you can be fired for saying Merry Christmas, but this is real facism. Thank you Billy boy!

You just carry them around in your wallet, huh?

Get some therapy.

$2 bills are great for tips.  I order 50 uncirculated from my bank periodically.  Update your knowledge of our great American currency -- it's the patriotic thing to do.

In light of the events that preceeded this Christmas I don't think the gay rights activists are going to get much punch out of this illegal scheme, and the public is going to be outraged.

It is a new climate now in our post TWC attack world. God, country, Flag and apple pie are in again and gay activists are out. Green activists are out too. So watch out, fringe mobs, we aren't in a mood to play anymore.

Before the Boy Scouts...now the Salvation Army? What in the world???

Why can't they [gays] leave people alone?

Because they are like Nazis and Islamists.  You go with their program or you die.

Older versions of the $2 bill have again the portrait of Jefferson and on the reverse his home of Montecello which fits in with the theme of buildings on the back of US currency. Those are neat bills too.

You need to know your monetary history before you back yourself into a corner. Yeah I have a couple two dollar bills.

I worked in several types of retail for several years of my life and never came across a two dollar bill being used in a purchase transaction. I never denied on this thread that a two dollar bill exists. This whole mess started because I said "queer as a two dollar bill" rather than "queer as a three dollar bill". It is not a phrase I use every day of my life so spare me the firing squad if it is not correct.
