and dear old Rhonda Storms tried to shut down booze on Sundays in Tampa. When she had it pointed out to her that it would cut off drinking at sporting events, a rather profitable revenue stream. she talked about how if it was up to her she would ban booze from the county all togther.
and Now Rhonda storms has by her idiocy got people all uppity and out in a fuss
Last week Commissioner Ronda Storms called on the county to ``abstain from acknowledging, promoting and participating'' in gay pride recognition or events. She suggested the policy after a Gay Pride Month display at the West Gate Regional Library angered some parents.
Commissioner Kathy Castor was the only member to vote against the policy. Commissioner Ken Hagan missed the vote because he was outside the chamber but has said since then that he supports the policy.
On Monday, several members of the audience targeted Storms with signs and T-shirts, a few misspelling her first name: ``Don't Let Rhonda Storm on Anyone's Parade,'' and ``Stop Redneck Rhonda Storms.''
and how is this going to cause a rukus....?
Others said they will organize events in the arts and business communities.
For now, gay activists are toning down threats about filing a lawsuit.
``We are looking at our options,'' said Karen Doering, regional counsel for the National Center for Lesbian Rights. ``There are a lot of unknowns, and that's why it makes sense to see what happens.
If not removed by the courts, eliminating the policy could be difficult. Storms bolstered her proposal last week by requiring a public meeting and supermajority vote of the commission to overturn the policy.
thanks SBC Storms for causing a fight which will surely pay the county attorneys very well
