Log Cabin GOP Denounces Hanging of Gay Teens in Iran
Just saw this statement from Patrick Guerriero, head of Log Cabin Republicans:
July 26, 2005
Log Cabin Republicans Denounce Execution of Gay Youth by Iran
International Community Should Denounce Iranian Regime(Washington, DC)? In the wake of news stories and photographs documenting the hanging of two gay Iranian teenagers, Log Cabin Republicans re-affirm their commitment to the global war on terror. ?Like any decent human being, I am shocked and outraged by the execution of two young gay men by Iranian government officials,? said Log Cabin Republicans President Patrick Guerriero. ?This barbarous slaughter clearly demonstrates the stakes in the global war on terror. Freedom must prevail over radical Islamic extremism.?
Log Cabin Republicans call on the United States government, as well as the broader international community, including the United Nations, to publicly condemn these atrocities. There is a special obligation for those countries with continued economic ties to the Iranian regime to speak out. ?The international community should be outraged, and those countries that continue supporting the Iranian regime have a special obligation to condemn this deplorable act,? concluded Guerriero.
I am still waiting to see if the White House or Department of State issues any formal statement on the matter. Stay tuned…… I’m doing some digging on this….

[...] Until someone can tell me what is the workable alternative to war, can tell me how to keep our children from having to live in a world where free speech is lost to intimidation, cathedral crosses are replaced with minarets, women are stoned to death for the crime of being raped, gays are hung for being gay and jews are simply left for slaughter, I simply can’t find the answer.

Magbar jomeh islomi iran Magbar Macmood Ahmijad va Ali Khomanani ! These to men are the spawns of Satan and should not be aloud out of cells thanks be to God that the older of the two is dead and is rotting in hell for his behavior, their was a reason are king made him leave Iran because he was a pyscho and had no business being presdient of Iran and he commited treason when he got rid of our King and that is punishable by death and anyone who supports his way of thinking including are present President is gulity of treason and the rules of the Islamic law’s are from the 14th century and have no baring on 21st century people . My generation of Persians are not religious and have a hard time excepting a religion that oppress them , and doesn’t allow them the freedom of living how ever they choose which is a basic human right , we are not in the time of the prophet peace be upon him and modern people have the right to practice whatever sexual acts the choose to in the privicey of their own homes and no government weather it be democractic or Islamic have the right to invaded that privicy they are not hurting anyone its none of their business who is “fucking” who and they should be more concerned with governmental issues and forgine affiars then what people are doing in their own houses and in their own bedrooms .
