label for dangeous goods, class 8 (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Man who added acid to lubricant dispenser at Sydney gay club Aarows avoids jail A man who put hydrochloric acid inside a lubricant dispenser at a Sydney gay sex club has avoided jail after being handed a good behaviour bond. In August this year 62-year-old Hengky Irawan went to the Aarows club in Sydney's west with a litre bottle of acid, along with a funnel and a knife. He poured the acid into the lubricant container, but set off an alarm when he broke the dispenser's seal, notifying staff at the club. He was later charged with a range of offences, including administering poison with the intent to cause injury, distress or pain, and malicious damage. In the Parramatta Local Court on Tuesday, his lawyer applied to have the charges dealt with under the Mental Health Act. He submitted a report from a GP and a psychologist, telling the court his client suffered from mental illness and a doctor had referred t...

A magistrate has been struck off after making controversial comments on national television.  Richard Page was reprimanded last year after questioning whether a same-sex couple would be the best choice of parents during an adoption case. The 69-year-old Christian, from Headcorn , said it was natural and in the interests of a child to be brought up by a mother and father. Magistrate Richard Page, from Headcorn, has been struck off After being reprimanded by the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO) Mr Page, who made the comments behind closed doors, was sent on an equality course. The NHS manager, who has been a magistrate on the Central Kent Bench covering Maidstone and Sevenoaks for 15 years and has also been a foster parent , then took part in a BBC debate on whether Christians were being squeezed out of public life. "There is not sufficient evidence to convince me placing a child in the care of a same-sex couple can be as holistically beneficial to a...

WASHINGTON, D.C. , March 14, 2013 ( Heritage Foundation ) - The media likes to present the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community as if they speak with one voice, as a monolithic group. But more and more members of that community are speaking out in defense of marriage —between a man and woman. Doug Mainwaring. Doug Mainwaring is one such advocate. An adoptive parent and openly gay man , he is perhaps the unlikeliest opponent of  redefining marriage . But his own experience as a parent revealed to him that children need a mom and a dad, and that marriage is ultimately about putting the needs of children before the desires of adults. In a  recent article  at  Public Discourse  titled “ I’m Gay and I Oppose Same-Sex Marriage ,” Mainwaring makes the bold claim that: To be fully formed, children need to be free to generously receive from and express affection to parents of both genders. Genderless marriages deny this fullness. ...

Français : Francois Hollande - Mardis de l'ESSEC (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Francois Hollande , the ultra-liberal, socialist President of France swept into power last May, promising — among many other things — a swift passage of same-sex marriage and adoption legislation. But the people of France had other ideas. You see, the French people know in their bones that every child deserves a mother and father. And so they've taken to the streets — hundreds of thousands of them! I firmly believe we need more of this kind of flesh-and-blood activism here in America . After all, we know we are the silent pro-marriage majority ... but do our friends, family and neighbors know we exist? I'm a proud son of America, but I believe we need to take a page out of the French playbook so that our fellow pro-marriage Americans can be inspired to rise up and take to the streets in defense of marriage, children and family. The pro-marriage movement in France is passionate, ...

Gay Couple with child (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Government needs to get marriage policy right, because it shapes the norms associated with this most fundamental relationship. Redefining marriage would abandon the norm of male-female sexual complementarity as an essential characteristic of marriage. Making that optional would also make other essential characteristics—like monogamy, exclusivity and permanency—optional. ... increasingly confirmed by the rhetoric and arguments of those who would redefine marriage (“revisionists”) and by the policies that their more candid leaders increasingly embrace ... These are the words of leading supporters of same-sex marriage . If you believe in monogamy and exclusivity—and the benefits these bring to orderly procreation and child well-being—but would redefine civil marriage , take note. Some revisionists say marriage is simply whatever sort of interpersonal relationship consenting adults—be they two or 10 in number—want it to be; sexual...

December 11, 2012 ( LifeSiteNews.com ) – A  new study  has found that children of same-sex couples suffer a marked disadvantage in educational progress when compared to children living with married parents of opposite sexes.  The study, spearheaded by Dr. Douglas Allen of Simon Fraser University , took a fresh look at data that had previously been analyzed by a Stanford sociologist, Dr. Michael Rosenfeld. While dozens of preliminary studies have been conducted on the effect of same-sex households on the children in those households, this is reportedly the first study to use data from a full census with a large random sample .  Dr. Rosenfeld’s original analysis of the 2000 census date concluded that children of same-sex couples are do not significantly differ in their levels of academic achievement when compared to children of married heterosexual parents. But Dr. Alan identified a problem with the control in Rosenfeld’s study: it excluded many same-sex...

British actor Rupert Everett says he “can’t think of anything worse” than two gay men bringing up a child together—an opinion that is probably held by vast numbers of people who would not dare to say so in public. But, thanks to the magic shield of celebrity, actors can get away with speech “crimes” that the rest of us would (metaphorically) hang for. Rupert Everett. Being gay himself also deflects criticism—Everett came out as a homosexual 20 years ago and has said that this damaged his acting career. His comments on gay parenting were made in an interview with the  Sunday Times Magazine last weekend (alas,  The Times  is only accessible to paid subscribers so we rely on  The Telegraph  here). Everett, probably best know for his role as a gay man in the 1997 film  My Best Friend’s Wedding , says his mother, Sara, who was also interviewed for the article, “still wishes I had a wife and kids. She thinks children need a father and a mother, and...

August 14, 2012 ( thePublicDiscourse.com ) - Between 1973 and 1990, when my beloved mother passed away, she and her female romantic partner raised me. They had separate houses but spent nearly all their weekends together, with me, in a trailer tucked discreetly in an RV park 50 minutes away from the town where we lived. As the youngest of my mother’s biological children, I was the only child who experienced childhood without my father being around. After my mother’s partner’s children had left for college, she moved into our house in town. I lived with both of them for the brief time before my mother died at the age of 53. I was 19. In other words, I was the only child who experienced life under “ gay parenting ” as that term is understood today. Quite simply, growing up with gay parents was very difficult, and not because of prejudice from neighbors. People in our community didn’t really know what was going on in the house. To most outside observers, I was a well-raised, hig...
