Pamela Raintree and her stone are being celebrated by the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community of Shreveport, Louisiana, for their incredible parts in sustaining the city's LGBT non-discrimination ordinance, which was under threat of repeal. The transgender woman recently confronted Councilman Ron Webb, the single dissenting vote against the ordinance, which passed in December, and the mastermind behind a repeal of the law. Raintree brought the stone with her to the council meeting and stated, "Leviticus 20:13 states, 'If a man lie also with mankind as he lieth with a woman, they shall surely put him to death.' I brought the first stone Mr. Webb, in case that your Bible talk isn't just a smoke screen for personal prejudices." After Raintree gave her moving speech Webb moved to withdraw his proposal. His withdrawal motion was unanimously supported. Source : http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/19/pamela-raintree-stone_n_4627051.html Faith in humanity restored.
She shouldn't be being celebrated by the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities She should be being celebrated by all communities for being a total badass
