Wow! Short notice!
Is there some way Mike Shipley can bring the Phoenix Arizona community to the boardroom on speakerphone, video or something?
This issue is bigger than just the GLBT too. The rest of the anti-war community has a stake in this matter. How can the board expect to shove this in the face of decades of Bay Area activism.
Are they thinking this is a pro-war area?
Are they thinking this will help the GLBT cause if they denounce Manning?
Have they gone crazy?

Just found out about this, hope some other libertarians may be able to show up as well!
Here's the link to the video of me speaking at the rally for Bradley Manning last week, also attended by Mike Denny, John Bechtol, and Mike Acree -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqQnYVdAURc&feature=youtu.be .
I'll bring some of the Bradley Manning stickers I picked up at that event for people to wear.
For some good commentary on the controversy with Bradley Manning and the SF Pride parade scheduled for June 29, here's the link to Glenn Greenwald's excellent column again -- http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/apr/27/bradley-manning-sf-gay-pride
For more information on the saga of this gay hero who has been imprisoned over 1000 days without trial, including at times under conditions described as "torture" by Amnesty International and other human rights groups, his current trial proceedings, etc., visit http://www.bradleymanning.org/

Bradley Manning chose not to look the other way, and to not
keep silent.
That's why I'll be at the San Francisco Pride Board Meeting this
evening, to encourage the Pride Board not to vote to silence Bradley
Manning.
Why's everyone else goin'?
See you there Honey!
