Va. lawmaker claims pat-downs part of 'homosexual agenda'

November 30, 2010

WASHINGTON - A conservative Loudoun County lawmaker says controversial airport pat-downs by the Transportation Security Administration are part of a "wide-scale homosexual agenda." Eugene Delgaudio, a Republican representing Sterling on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors, made the comments in a widely distributed e-mail sent in his capacity as president of the conservative nonprofit Public Advocate of the United States.
In the e-mail -- reported by WUSA9 -- Delgaudio also says the TSA's non-discrimination hiring policy is "the federal employee's version of the Gay Bill of Special rights."
"That means the next TSA official that gives you an enhanced pat-down could be a practicing homosexual secretly getting pleasure from your submission," he wrote.
Delgaudio confirmed the quote to WTOP. He was first elected to the Loudoun board in 1999 and has previously been criticized by his colleagues for anti-gay comments.
In a petition urging opposition to The Student Non-Discrimination Act introduced in Congress by Rep. Jared Polis of Colorado, Delgaudio said the bill would turn America's "playgrounds into homosexual breeding grounds."
In a fundraising and survey appeal, Delgaudio also reportedly said the homosexual agenda in Congress promotes same-sex marriages and adoptions, which will lead to "men hand-in-hand skipping down to adoption centers to 'pick out' a little boy for themselves."
Delgaudio's Public Advocate organization says it supports ending same-sex marriage and pro-life initiatives, along with "equality under the law, regardless of one's sexual orientation."
The group says it has 100,000 members.

Man charged in Manassas bank robbery

By Keith Walker

Published: November 17, 2008

Manassas police have arrested a man in connection with a Friday robbery at the Provident Bank at 10175 Hastings Drive, police said.

Ijaz William, 30, of no fixed address, was charged with two counts of robbery and one count of attempted robbery, said Sgt. Tim Neumann, Manassas police spokesman.

Police said a man went into the bank at about 10:52 a.m., placed a duffel bag on the counter in front of a teller, implied that he had a gun and demanded money, Neumann said.

The teller said that when she gave the man an undisclosed amount of money, he ran out of the bank toward Dumfries Road, Neumann said.

Police officers who responded to the robbery found the duffel bag with the stolen money not far from the bank.

Police said that it appeared that the robber dropped the bag after the dye pack exploded.

Officers arrested William a short time later at the apartment complex at Hastings and 7th Regiment drives.

Ijaz was held without bond and is scheduled to appear in court on a Dec. 29, Neumann said.

Well, this is the robbery that I was blogging about earlier. I am "the teller" they speak of.

Playing Tourist

For by birthday I decided that I wanted to go to DC. I live right next door to these incredible monuments, yet I have not actually taken the time to play tourist.

So for my birthday, I became a DC tourist :) Here was my day:

First, my main destination was the Lincoln Memorial. Lincoln is my favorite historical President, but we had to pass by the Washington Monument and the World War II Memorial to get there. Here are the pictures:

We then went to the Vietnam Memorial:

The White House:

We took the Metro back to the Smithsonian Metro Station, giving the perfect view of the Capital:

The National Museum of American History:

This is the actual Greensboro Lunch Counter

Look, They already have Obama!!

And home in time for dinner and cake:

I Was Robbed... Seriously...

I am going to attempt to make a long story short. Ready. Set. Go.
Yesterday (Friday) November 14th I was at work (I work at a bank). Well, my lovely coworkers got be a cake since my birthday is tomorrow (Sunday) November 16th. We finished the cake and were getting back to the normal day, and I was robbed.

A man came into the bank yelling at me to give him all of my money, and to hurry up.
I can't go into much detail, but it was one of the most surreal experiences I have ever had. I wish I could share more but no one really specified what I can and cant talk about. They just said that it is healthy to talk about it but not to go into detail, I'm not sure if that is possible, but ill try.

I just hope I don't have to go to court. I would hate to see him again. I have to say, he was a very mean bank robber. I always just hoped that if I was ever robbed, it would be a nice bank robber who was doing it to help feed his children or something like that.
I guess I am just naive.
