Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on the Folsom Street Fair events this weekend: Every year, San Francisco celebrates the Folsom Street Fair, traditionally held the last weekend in September. It is a mass gathering of naked homosexual men, some of whom submit to beating each other in the street with chains and other metal devices. This is regarded as a demonstration in tolerance. In 2012, many citizens of San Francisco got so fed up with naked men sitting next to children in public places that they banned nudity in public. The board of supervisors vote was close, 5-4. But it was not a total ban: an exception was made for homosexuals—they are allowed to go naked at the Folsom Street Fair and other events. Many prefer to indulge their passions by participating in bondage exercises. The Folsom Street Fair also features a heady dose of Catholic bashing. Usually, the... Read more →

by New Jersey Business & Industry Association Legislation banning plastic bags, straws and polystyrene containers is the kind of environmental policy the state should avoid if it wants to get the maximum environmental benefit without hurting jobs and the economy, the New Jersey Business & Industry Association (NJBIA) said today. Testifying before the Senate Environment and Energy Committee on S-2776, NJBIA Chief Government Affairs Officer Chrissy Buteas said NJBIA members take their responsibility to manage solid waste seriously, but they want the state to have clear and comprehensive goals before imposing new mandates on them. "To date, the state has not released any analysis studying the impact of plastics as it relates to litter or other environmental concerns," Buteas said. "We want to be sure that any measure impacting so many jobs will actually have the desired effect." Facts suggest the bill would have little impact on global plastics pollution... Read more →

Three hunting groups, The New Jersey Outdoor Alliance (NJOA), Safari Club International and Sportsmen's Alliance, have announced their intent to sue the Administration. The hunt is scheduled to begin on October 8th. “The Murphy Administration said they couldn’t have a full hunting ban, despite previous commitments to do so, because they were afraid of being sued. That’s why they decided to go forward with only a ban on state lands. Now we see that they’re being sued by hunting groups anyway.
