Now Is The Time
Official Website:
http://www.NationalEqualityMarch.com
On October 10-11, 2009, we will gather in Washington DC from all across America to let our elected leaders know that now is the time for full equal rights for LGBT people. We will gather. We will march. And we will leave energized and empowered to do the work that needs to be done in every community across the nation.
Our single demand: Equal protection in all matters governed by civil law in all 50 states.
Our philosophy: As members of every race, class, faith, and community, we see the struggle for LGBT equality as part of a larger movement for peace and social justice.
Our strategy: Decentralized organizing for this march in every one of the 435 Congressional districts will build a network to continue organizing beyond October.
Speech: Cleve Jones, "Meet In The Middle 4 Equality" Rally, Fresno, CA, May 30, 2009















































WHAT ABOUT THINKING ABOUT WHAT YOU SAY AND BEING PC?
Wow Perez I hope you are reading this. No one has anything positive to say to you or about this cause. Time to pack it in. I have been on this sight everyday (workday) for the past year. Today is my last.
BEING GAY DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO SPEW HATE. HOW DO YOUNG GAY TEENS FEEL ABOUT YOU NOW?
ISSUE MS PREJEAN AN APOLOGY SOON. EGG ON YOUR FACE MUCH?
WHERE'S SHANNA IN YOUR DEFENSE?
WHERE'S KEITH LEWIS IN YOUR DEFENSE? HEY, YOU REMIND ME OF THE NEW GAY MEL GIBSON. MAYBE THE NEW MICHAEL RICHARDS?
Re: Leezagee – 1979 National March on Washington for Lesbian & Gay Rights, was the first of its kind and as such had unprecedented impact on gay culture and the gay rights movement.
Are you going to go Perez and yell how they are all fugly "fa*s"?
So you're gay, and like to complain about those who don't support the gay lifestyle, but then are the first to spit in someone's face about how they are the *ag.
Re: jimmyjazz – See you there JJ!
Re: aaabbbccc – And where's GagGag?
Why are you using gay slurs?? In your warped little mind did you think it would bring attention to your cause???? Did you realize you werent in the news as much now that the Miss California story is over and you need the attention????
How does it feel to have people from all sides coming down on you? Whatever plan you had has failed miserably…unless that plan was to have everyone hate you. If so, congratulations you win!!!
HAVE YOU EVER JUST APOLOGIZED? "I'M SORRY. I WAS WRONG." SIMPLE AS THAT. YOU JUST CAN'T BE A HATER FOREVER AND NOT GET PAINTED INTO A CORNER AT SOME POINT. YOU HAVE NO DEFENSE. IGNORANCE IS NOT A DEFENSE. ANGER IS NOT A DEFENSE. IT INDEFENSIBLE. SAY YOU'RE SORRY SOON OR I DON'T SEE IT SO WELL FOR YOU.
I don't get you Perez. You post blogs on your site about people bashing gays and basically ruin people's careers and then you turn around and use the same profanity and horrible slang against gays. How can you belittle people for the same thing you do yourself? Everyone on this site is right in calling you a hypocrite. You should be ashamed of yourself.
YOU ARE A FUCKING POSER.
Are you marching for the "right" to call people "ffocking faeg0ts!"? Way to go fat boy!
When are you going to apologize?
WHAT ABOUT A HYPOCRITE -FIGHTING APPROACH. YOU THINK IGNORING THIS AND REFUSING TO APOLOGIZE WILL MAKE IT GO AWAY? IF SO THEN YOU ARE A SOCIOPATH. IF NOT APOLOGIZE AND LOOK HALF HUMAN..
WILL YOU CONTINUE TO OUT PEOPLE
WILL YOU CONTINUE TO OUT PEOPLE
UNDER THE PRETENSE THAT IT'S FOR THE BETTER.
Sociopaths lack all empathy for others. So, they will cry if hurt, but will honestly not understand why someone else would cry if THEY are hurt. Like very young children, they really don't understand that other people are real, valid human beings instead of cardboard cutouts.
SOCIOPATHS HAVE NO FEELINGS AND NO SENSE OF BEING SORRY.
Sorry to anyone who actually do support this cause. Everyone deserves to be treated equally. But when it comes to this idiot who's bright idea to become famous by bashing everyone else doesn't deserve to have any equality rights. Perez should be put in the slammer where he really belongs. I'm sure there would be riots to determine who's prison bitch he should belong to.
Re: IHOPEYOUDIEPEREZ –
That's a great idea!!!! I really hope someone will come up with one!!! I surely would only i'm not very "technically" inclined.
See how much fun it is then "Perezito". At least you won't be able delete the negative comments of yourself and maybe the world will finally see what a whiny cu&* you are!
Re: aaabbbccc – You are 100% right
Wow. Super hypocrite much?
You are NOT a gay rights champion. I used to disagree with people who called you heterophobic, but unfortunately, I am now in agreement. shame on you.
Re: Lectronica – im thinking the same now i can stand him with insulting brit loving lady gaga and with all the hypocrecy with the gays
Re: imsoregistered –
I can't believe that Perez would respond like that. At least that "thug" has talent. Perez, you don't demand respect you have to earn it like the rest of us human beings!
Re: PrinceD – You know you are going to have to explain who Uncle Tom was to the haters here, don't you?
=
By the way, Happy Gay Pride Month to you.
LOL. No shame. I'm sorry, but you've lost all credit. Not that you ever had any to begin with.
I hope this 'assault' incident is just the tip of the iceberg in your imminent demise.
i had a bunch of words to call you, but you open your mouth and do enough damage that i don't need to insult you further. i "ditto" all the comments below about how much of a hypocrite you are… and you reap what you sow.
i'm just surprised no one has clocked you in the face before.
and not only that.. can we just add that verbal abuse is still abuse?? don't play the victim when you're just as much at fault.
Re: trix08 – Are you guys that really into wanting a place to go?
Re: imsoregistered – ok that's completely different what your saying. Children are innocent and should not harmed in any way, shape, or form. However, Perez is supposed to be an adult and he should be able to take care of himself and fight his own battles. That comment was uncalled for.
Perez dearie, if you want to help — just go away.
Karma really is a beeyotch, now you're the laughing stock, just like you made laughing stocks out of so many people, I feed on your misery you fat slob.
Perez, do the right thing and admit you were WRONG! You have too many young followers to just sit there in silence. You are showing them that it's okay to use racial slurs in tough situations! Don't shame your cause like this!
Re: trix08 – The point of the comment is that verbal abuse is still verbal abuse. Perez is up for TEEN CHOICE AWARDS. This DOES involve children, especially if children and pre-teens are viewing his rants and this site (which I'm against children accessing, but I can't parent every kid out there). What he's saying to that sector is that calling a name is okay - as long as you don't hit anyone. That's NEVER okay. The definition of violence actually includes verbal attacks.
perez stay out of it, you are not a leader for the gays, you are an embarrassment to the cause. shame on you
I can't believe you are actually advertising this. It's nice that it's getting out there, but it's horrible how you have yet to apologize for using the word. It doesn't matter if you were in that situation, it still does NOT give you the right (just like the manager had to right to use violence) to use such derogatory terms especially when you claim to be an advocate for gay rights.
You were wrong, and you need to apologize before you attend this gathering.
Poser. Don't forget to apologize you hatemonger homophobe! Glaad quote: “These are vulgar anti-gay slurs that feed a climate of hatred and intolerance toward our community. For someone in our own community to use it to attack another person by saying that it is, quote, ‘The worst possible thing that thug would ever want to hear,’ is incredibly dangerous. It legitimizes use of a slur that is often linked to violence against our community. And it sends a message that it is OK to attempt to dehumanize people by exploiting anti-gay attitudes. We have reached out to Hilton and asked him to apologize for promoting this anti-gay slur and we would ask media outlets to avoid repetition of the slur in their coverage of this story.”
I sure hope you got a loud voice. You're gonna need it over the boos.
Hypocrite.

Now is the time for losers like you to shut the fuck up! “These are vulgar anti-gay slurs that feed a climate of hatred and intolerance toward our community.

Re: imsoregistered – I apologize to you, I read your comment the wrong way. And I agree as much as you do, violence comes in many ways and no one should ever have to tolerate it.
Is Perez really up for a Teen Choice Award? I wasn't aware of it, and if he does win that award (which i hope he doesn't) then this world is definitely effed up.
Sorry again to you, Perez's senseless antics has got me fuming at the moment.
Re: trix08 – Thank you - I didn't think you quite understood what I meant by what I posted so I clarified it a bit more. He's up for Choice Web Star.
LOSER!! Quit taking down peoples posts/opinions!! All I said is that you should have Chaz Bono as a bodyguard but since she is ultimately included in your verbal assault, she'd probably pop you one right across your mug.
We've learned one thing, in anger we can call anyone anything, and it's OK so long as we preach the opposite 24/7……..sad. I hope this has taught you humility, you are soooooo very quick to judge those that have committed this mistake, and so quick to jump on the bandwagon of any Ahole that backs gays. they are still Aholes (Spencer) , but for the moment they support your cause, they're cool. That my friend is not cool. I do not condone what happened to you, and I am sorry, but every single situation that we go through is a learning opportunity, I hope you actually read these posts and see the error of your ways.
Please stop using gay rights issues for your own gain, Perez. We've all seen what you are about now, purposely using a derogatory word for gay people against someone who isn't gay to wind them up so they become frustrated with you and lash out. Gays do not want you to speak up for them, so do something decent for once and don't turn up for this.
I will most definitely be there, though not because of your site. I knew about it already though someone send me a link to this. I think you have an apology to make for being such a HUGE hypocrite! You had the nerve to condemn Isiah Washington for using a gay slur and yet you call Will.i.am a gay slur. By all means violence is never the answer, that's beside the point. I support anyone that is a victim, though you had no right calling anyone a gay slur. HYPOCRITE
perez u owe all gays and lesbians a sincere apology for using such a negative, derogatory gay-based slur under ANY circumstances EVER.
You are garbage Perez. How dare you to call someone out on professionalism and morals when you have none. You were way out of line in that situation in every situation. You have the right to say whatever you want but you have to be willing to face the consequences of those actions. Instead of crying, ranting, and raving about a little scratch under your eye, own up to your actions and thank your lucky stars it wasn't worst because you deserve it and a punch in the face was way over due
Hey Perez, are you going to call some of the people marching fa**ots like you did Will.I.Am? That would probably go over really well….
YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO POST ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE, NO ONE WANTS YOU THERE, NO ONE WANTS YOU AROUND, YOU FOUL MOUTH DOG TURD.
14:58…tick…tick…tick
14:59…tick….tick….tick
Look at all of these comments perez (little "p") and you'll see what real people (not those shiny, happy, Hollywood liberals you suck up to) think about you. I'll bet you thought everyone loved you. Those were the gays who used to be in your corner (no more). I'm just surprised you didn't use the "N" word too! Guess you're smart enough to know that would get you your ass kicked real quick.
Hypocrite!
How can you try to sell yourself as a gay rights activist when you used one of the most derogatory and insulting anti-gay words ever?
Don't expect an apology from GLAAD. They are not 'victimizing' you further. They are the true voice for gays and lesbians and are honest and moral enough to chastize 'one of their own' rather than make excuses. GLAAD's reaction to this has made them more credible than they already were and have more of my support and respect than ever before (and I'm straight).
You are reaping what you have sowed. If you can't handle the criticism, the tasteless jokes, the insults, then don't dish them out to others.
Remember the basic rules taught to you, 'treat others as you would want to be treated'. And if that one is too hard, then what about this one….'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.'
Hmmm….supposedly there are 159 comments, yet only 101 are posted.
What's the matter? Afraid of a little taste of your own medicine? With the content of your site, you're worried about what other's have to say?!
PEREZ, ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME???? You need to shut the fuck up and go away for a while. You are such a fucking hypocrite
Make sure you wash you vagina before you go, hypocrite. I'm sure all the gay and lesbian supporters will finish what the Black Eyed Peas manager started. Just make sure you're ready for a war, fatass
