Christine this is not a concession. I will never concede my civil rights. I am talking about the reality of current politics. We are under attack and being pushed back stat-by-state by a well-organized, well-funded hate group. We have lost ground. Once we get more support in the middle, we can push forward but right now we are not even in the ring.

I passionately hate what many around us are accepting but we need the middle to support us and we don't have it. We need to stop losing ground first to begin to move forward.

The world needs to see us as we are not as the haters make them see us.
