On April 15, 2012, GetEqual Ohio and volunteers will lead a community protest at Falls River Square located at 2310 2nd Street, Cuyahoga Falls, OH 44221 from 3 to 6pm.
The protest is based on the FRC’s “Value Bus” tour and their continued speech against the rights of LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bi-sexual, Transgender and Queer) Americans. Most recently the FRC toured South Carolina rallying in favor of an amendment to South Carolina’s Constitution defining marriage as between “one man and one woman”. The FRC continually supports discriminating legislation that portrays LGBTQ Americans as second-class citizens. The “Value Bus” tour is continuing through the country in light of the 2012 election in hopes of rallying behind other conservative Christian Candidates for offices to up hold what the group has defined as “Family Values.”
GetEqual’s mission is clear; “To empower the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) community and our allies to take bold action to demand full legal and social equality, and to hold accountable those who stand in the way.” The FRC is doing just that, standing in the way of Equality. GetEqual and its volunteers will organize a protest at this and several of the other events the “Values Bus” has scheduled around the state.
