Nathan Mathis holding a picture of his late daughter, Patti Sue. WARNING: If you have not seen this video yet, it might make you cry. And if you cry, that will be a sure signal that you are a better human being than every grunting beef shart who casts a vote for Roy Moore today in Alabama's special US Senate election.
I started sobbing when I first saw this video. This man touches my heart. He speaks out for his daughter even though he's obviously nervous. I grew up about an hour from Mr. Mathis, so I know how brave he is to stand out there with his sign, standing up for gay people in rural south Alabama.
My favorite quote is "It won’t be the first time I’ve done something to no avail, OK?" Truth! Sometimes you just have to do what you know is right even if you don't know what the outcome will be. I hope he was gratified by the outcome tonight.
Thanks for posting the letter. I hadn't see that. My heart goes out to this kind and courageous man.
What would Jesus do?Punch Roy Moore right in the face.

It was more difficult than it had any right or ought to be.
The real tragedy is that it took the life of his flesh and blood for him to see his own and the institutions he holds dear's error.
That's not a gene, that's trained and conditioned through parental ignorance, bleatings delivered every Sabbath day, and Fox News.
It's a Roman Catholic thing. Albeit abused frequently.
In a theological sense yes, in a broader sense even us atheists can atone for our actions.
Wish I could give him a bear hug, brave fella!

Stealing. Bill, I swear you have a meme for everything.
"Ripples in water" my mother would to say. This is what courage is.
