So who is up for a fight?

I got what I consider to be hate mail, bulk style, which means all of my neighbours got it too. Basically it implicates queer individuals as being immoral and socially corrupt and corrupting.

Okay, yeah, I'd like my MP to vote yes for equal marriage, however I feel the larger issue is that I should never be intimidated and marginalized by materials distributed through Canada Post, a Crown Corporation. That is my government consenting to allow members of its population to be emotionally abused.

That is how I feel, angry and marginalized.

sounds likey they're more concerned about hidding their identity - where do these "Concerned parents" meet, seeing as there's no addresses to join local meetings... maybe they all cram into a 7-11 box? :P

This does sound a bit fishy - any credible organization would have established groups or at least A group somewhere, not to mention a web-site or something. I'm guessing this is a front - some organization wishing to appear neutral by going under a new name, or some rich church or individual with plenty of money to burn.

It's unfortunate, but I wouldn't at all be surprised if it was a Catholic/Christian group behind this.

Mark Holland (M.P Ajax-Pickering) says that while he has not found the responsable parties, he has found strong indications that these are being put out by a U.S. Christian group with an interest that this bill not pass in Canada. Interestingly enough, so far there have only been reports of these letters going out in Liberal ridings.

Though.. they tend to be a hell of a lot more open about it.. like the full page ads in the ottawa Ssun, or the half page ad on page 6 in the citizen. They tend to stick with the "Same Sex Marriage is Bad M'Kay"

but in the states.. they get right down to the "Gay is Bad M'Kay." newspaper ads and mention ways they can make you Not Gay. Or Ex-Gay.
