An idea - the Queer State Project

[sophiaserpentia]

The Free State Project is a movement that is gathering the promises of 20,000 libertarians, to move to New Hampshire once enough people have been assembled.

The idea is that 20,000 libertarians converging on New Hampshire would create a large enough contingent to be able to affect the laws of the state.

Suppose... suppose a large number of gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgendered, intersex, pagan, and poly people all moved to the same state, until a saturation point was reached. At that point we woul be a large enough community to affect state policy, or were even a majority. A place where we knew that, no matter what, we were welcome and accepted, where we could live as we wish without fear of reprisal and bigotry.

By estimate, we make up 5-10% of the population. Heck, we could take over several states.

Or maybe the freaking bigots should just all move to the same damned place and stone each other to death for minor sexual dalliances and leave the rest of us alone to live our lives.

Hmm, I'm going to edit the entry to include "pagan." If such a thing could be pulled off, it would be very instructive for American Christians to learn once again what it is like to be in the religious minority when Christmas displays on public property are replaced by Yule displays.

Actually, since most Chrsitmas decorations are perfectly compatible with Yule, it might take them a while to catch on.
