Last Saturday night, employees of Southern Nights perpetrated physical, psychological and emotional violence against Miss Ed and we.are.not.here.for.it. Miss Ed was *maced* without warning and forced out of the club with impaired vision. The police officer on the scene verbally harassed/insulted her, then left without writing a police report. Miss Ed had to be taken to the emergency room for care where she was further inconvenienced and harmed by hospital staff.
We (you and I) are going to Ybor on Saturday night to tell the employees and patrons of Southern Nights -and other Ybor city entertainment venues- that violence against trans lives will not and cannot be tolerated. here

The toxic tide of algae that has swamped waterways and beaches on Florida's Treasure Coast is a catastrophe for the region's environment and tourist-driven economy. It's also a broader threat to the state's international reputation as a vacation paradise.here
Calling all Marijuana Activists. The Temple Terrace City Council is considering censoring cannabis culture. They may get involved with the Temple Terrace Chamber of Commerce to keep CFL NORML from marching in the Temple Terrace 4th of July Parade. If the City Council gets involved, then they will be going out of their way to strip a marijuana advocacy group of their freedom of speech! This is a bias against cannabis culture and lack of respect for medical marijuana patients! Join us in letting the City Council know that they will not be able to silence cannabis culture. Help us spread our message by showing our strength in numbers! Please come and show you stand with NORML! Let them know that they cannot silence the cannabis movement!info
