Gay YouTube star charged with felony vandalism, filing false claim of hate crime

LOS ANGELES, California ,— A high-profile gay YouTube personality who claimed he suffered a violent hate crime has been charged with felony vandalism and filing a false police report . He pleaded not guilty to both charges. In June, Calum McSwiggan   reported being assaulted   after leaving a West Hollywood nightclub. Police said they “were unable to substantiate the assault,” which McSwiggan says was a hate crime. The police subsequently arrested McSwiggan for allegedly vandalizing a car. The police say McSwiggan was not visibly injured at the time of his arrest and he harmed himself with a pay phone in a police holding cell . McSwiggan admitted to harming himself to get out of the cell but said other injuries on his body — three broken teeth and cuts, scrapes, and bruises on his back — were from being assaulted. “In a moment of desperation to get out of the cell, I took the pay phone off the wall and hit myself once across the forehead with it as hard as I could,

English: The Supreme Court of the United States. Washington, D.C. Français : La Cour suprême des États-Unis. Washington D.C., États-Unis. ‪Norsk (bokmål)‬: Høyesterett i USA. Washington, D.C. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) The United States Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that the 14th Amendment requires all 50 states to issue marriage licenses for same-sex couples and recognize those marriages performed in other states. Among professing Christendom, there has been everything from shock, outrage, fear, and indifference. Whatever our response, surprise must not be one of them and anchoring in God ’s word must be all of them. In addition to what the Cripplegate has previously said on this issue , here are a few things for us to keep in mind in light of the Supreme Court’s ruling: 1. The God of the Bible reigns in unrivalled sovereignty and supremacy. “Remember the former things long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end f

The AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power, a group against AIDS, protests in New York City against the Anti-Homosexuality Bill in Uganda. (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Some people who approve of homosexuality as a legitimate lifestyle have said that homosexuality and homosexual  marriage  are not  moral  issues.  Often, this is stated in an attempt to distance themselves from ethics and focus on the social and political agenda to promote homosexuality.  Still, is homosexuality and homosexual marriage a moral issue?  Yes, it is. Morality deals with person-to-person relationships and what ought and ought not to be done within them.  The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy defines morality: "descriptively to refer to some codes of conduct put forward by a society or, some other group, such as a religion, or accepted by an individual for her own behavior or normatively to refer to a code of conduct that, given specified conditions, would be put forward by all rational persons.&q

ALBANY, New York ,  - As the same-sex “marriage” battle heats up again in New York, one writer at a prominent gay news source is questioning why his lobby refuses to admit that the gay agenda involves “ indoctrinating ” schoolchildren to accept homosexuality . Queerty contributor Daniel Villarreal   criticized  (WARNING site contains inappropriate images) the homosexual movement’s knee-jerk reaction against accusations of meddling in public schools. Villarreal pointed to a recent National Organization for Marriage (NOM) ad launched in New York that points out how homosexual indoctrination has been introduced in Massachusetts and California schools. Two of the books designed to teach children about homosexuality in a positive light. While gay activists usually deny that they want to indoctrinate children, said Villarreal, “let’s face it—that’s a lie.” “We want educators to teach future generations of children to accept queer sexuality. In fact, our very future depends on it,” he wr
