Lesbian Couple Murdered At Mardi Gras

In Port Bolivar, Texas, police are investigating the horrid murder of a lesbian couple whose bodies were discovered behind a trash dumpster by a beer delivery man.

Police officials are trying to assess the situation to see if a possible hate crime has taken place against the victims who are Britney Cosby and Crystal Jackson, both 24 years old; Jackson has a 5 year old daughter. The couples car is still missing and police are hoping to track the killer by tracking down the vehicle in question.

Apparently, the young couple took a trip to Mardi Gras and never returned which set off red alerts for their family members, who are hoping for public assistance in finding their loved ones murderer.

Peace and blessings to the Jackson and Cosby family for the loss of your angels, and I can only hope that justice will be dutifully served.

2014 Draft Prospect Michael Sam Owns His Truth

Former college football player of the Missouri Tigers Michael Alan Sam, comes out large, in charge, and unfettered.  

Reading articles on Sams' past although not entirely detailed still gives you an understanding of his struggles, yet he doesn't use the strife of his obstacles to hold him back -- he uses it as a propellant. 

It is indeed admirable and unselfish of this young man to stand in a line of fire, as to not make a spectacle of himself and his future teammates -- which is why he decided to come out before the NFL draft season. He thought it best to let all the hoopla take place now so that it can die down later. 

The youngest of eight children, Sam told the Times "I want to own my truth." 

And he does just that as he stated at a Los Angeles dinner party, when asked if he were nervous about the step he is taking to which he said "You all are the ones who are nervous. I'm excited."

Kudos to Michael Sam for being authentically who he is, by "owning his truth."

Side note: The NBA's first openly gay player Jason Collins, recently signed with the Brooklyn Nets.

ACLU Sues Utah for Ignoring Gay Marriages

After a federal judge in Utah overturned the state's same-sex marriage ban on December 20th -- deeming it unconstitutional as it violates gay and lesbian couples' rights, the U.S. Supreme court decided to grant Utah an emergency stay that not only halted same-sex marriages but cut off the benefits of all married couples.

As a result of this devastating action, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has proceeded in suing the state of Utah, in hopes of having full benefits restored for couples while the issuing of marriage licenses' takes a back burner -- but hopefully not for long.
