Tip: It’s Time to Walk the Library
It’s happening everywhere. Non-profit organizations are collaborating and overlapping to undermine and replace community standards, often focusing what they insist is their ‘very important work’ in areas involving children. These aren’t just any children but specifically other people’s children...school children, foster children, victimized children, homeless children.
Nowhere is this trend more overtly illustrated than in Bartlesville, Oklahoma, where aligned NGOs with overlapping board members and contradictory public-facing missions have now highjacked the most important decisions of local governance putting the town’s children in danger. City leadership seems to be complicit within this arrangement.
The above publicly available photo includes the head of the local non-profit tasked with serving victims of child sex abuse through evidence collection, the head of the local LGBT-activist group pushing public drag performances in front of children, and a gay married man with ties to both organizations who is currently petitioning the local court to expunge his criminal record for reasons unknown. There is much to discuss in Bartlesville’s battle to protect children.
City Council Proclaims Children Safe Then Votes Them Otherwise: Unexpectedly Aligned Non-profits Involved
To begin Bartlesville’s April 3rd city council meeting, both Sexual Assault Awareness Month and Child Abuse Prevention Month proclamations were made by the council. Both were presented to Ray of Hope Advocacy Center, a non-profit tasked with providing services and education related to sexual abuse and domestic violence for both adults and children. This is highly sensitive work that includes medical examinations, forensic interviewing and evidence collection from children who have been sexually abused. This work determines whether charges for crimes against children will be brought and prosecuted.
Ben Ames, Community Outreach Coordinator, and Rhonda Hudson, Executive Director, accepted the proclamations on behalf of the Ray of Hope. Clearly, protecting children is a priority for the city council, until it isn’t.
Just moments later, the Bartlesville City Council voted 3-2 to approve a last minute, one-year agreement to allow a local LGBT activist organization, Oklahomans for Equality (OKEQ), to hold uncensored drag queen performances in the presence of children within publicly funded facilities. Less than a year ago, OKEQ brought obscene drag performances to the town’s public square that violated even Facebook’s community standards.
As if the ambush agreement between OKEQ and the city, presented to the city council with “take-it-or-leave-it” urgency by city attorney Jess Kane, wasn’t inexplicable enough, examination of Ray of Hope, the so-called guardian of sexually abused children, and OKEQ-Bartlesville, the group fighting vehemently to expose children to distorted adult sexuality in the form of perverse drag, reveals a large overlap in leadership between the organizations. The connections among these common participants extend beyond these two groups to include an “affirming” organization related to foster parenting.
This publication previously revealed the tragic consequences of LGBT activism within Washington County’s OKDHS office by exposing the death by abuse of infant Xander Bruntmyer and the involvement of an OKEQ-Bartlesville board member working in child welfare at the time. The same article exposed the connection between OKDHS and the non-profit chapter The Village Fosters-Bartlesville:
And now, where several non-profit organizations with common leadership meet, there appears to be a gigantic hole in Bartlesville social safety net for children. It’s time to learn who’s holding the scissors.
Who’s Marrying Public Drag with Child Abuse Prevention? Most OKEQ-Bartlesville Board Members Overlap or Have Ties to Ray of Hope Leadership
Most of OKEQ-Bartlesville’s board members have either a direct or spousal connection to leadership at Ray of Hope:
Tim Hudson - Wife Rhonda Hudson is executive director of Ray of Hope.
Morgan Lawrence & Sheena Hayes - Hayes, within a recent court hearing, identified herself as a committee member at Ray of Hope.
Lisa Martinez - Secretary of the Ray of Hope board of directors.
Jon Lindblom - Wife Michal Lindblom is a member of the Ray of Hope board of directors.
Rev. Kelley Becker - Member of the Ray of Hope board of directors.
Commonalities among the board of OKEQ-Bartlesville and Ray of Hope are so prevalent that the groups appear to be concerningly well-connected.
Also notable, concerning behind the scenes relationships in this discussion:
Champagne Kane - The president of the Ray of Hope board of directors is the sister-in-law of city attorney Jess Kane who negotiated the one-year deal with OKEQ to keep the drag shows flowing in public venues, children welcome.
Ashley Kane - The Washington County assistant district attorney is the wife of city attorney Jess Kane. Ashley Kane has been publicly vocal in her support for the one-year agreement with OKEQ-Bartlesville to continue public drag performances despite her defined role as a ‘neutral’ public servant responsible for prosecuting those who violate the community’s standards as enshrined in local law.
Will Drake - The new district attorney has been relatively quiet since taking office, including about the violations of local obscenity law during OKEQ’s September 2022 pride event and public activism among his staff. Being assistant DA in the same office alongside Ashley Kane appears to be the only job Drake has ever had, making his election more of an expected upgrade. The changing of guards was so insignificant that the county still lists his predecessor as the current DA on their website.
Drake ran unopposed for the county’s DA position in 2022, self-funding his campaign with just $200. Beyond banking fees, Drake’s only campaign expense was buying tickets to the Ray of Hope fundraiser, Hops for Hope, for $88.12.
In closing out his campaign, DA Drake donated the remaining $56.88 to Ray of Hope:
Paradoxical Pairings & Purposes: The Hudsons & The Lindbloms Behind Both OKEQ and Ray of Hope
Tim & Rhonda Hudson
Rhonda Hudson is the executive director of Ray of Hope, a group that espouses “prevent, protect, advocate, HOPE” as their tagline in serving sexually abused children. Her husband is Tim Hudson, the co-founder of OKEQ’s Bartlesville chapter, which he identifies as having morphed from the PFLAG chapter he also co-founded locally.
This publication previously revealed how Hudson’s PFLAG/OKEQ brought the GSA (formerly Gay Straight Alliance now Genders & Sexualities Alliances) to Bartlesville High School so adults could discuss a range of sexual attractions and options with other people’s children. PFLAG’s resources for youth and schools include the pornographic.
From previous reporting:
PFLAG at School: Teaching So-Called ‘Safety’ within an Anything Goes Lifestyle
PFLAG’s section on LGBTQ Sex Ed within their Youth & Schools modules provides a recorded presentation on Health, Rights, and Pleasure produced by a group called Global Advisory Board (GAB) for Sexual Health and Wellbeing. They advocate a “pleasure approach” to teaching kids about gay sex which includes pornographic depictions, a common exposure technique used by pedophiles within the grooming process.
Hudson continues today as a very active board member and participant in OKEQ activities, often with his wife and children by his side. The couple can be seen on video obtained through open records request enjoying, in the presence of children, the very drag performances in Unity Square last September that prompted a petition by thousands of citizens to ban all adult-oriented entertainment in the town’s public spaces.
Within a 2018 interview with the local paper’s podcast, Rhonda Hudson made some statements about child sexual abuse in her community that, in hindsight, may have warranted some self-reflection on her part as she personally applauded the drag performances for kids in Unity square.
Within the interview, Rhonda Hudson states, “It feels like sometimes we (Ray of Hope) fly a little under the radar because child abuse is kind of a tough topic and sometimes it’s easy for people to bury their heads a little bit and not really look around and see the issue in our community.”
Tim Hudson’s associates degree in liberal arts led to an 18-year career as a reporter for the Bartlesville Examiner Enterprise, a publication that continues to ensure that no elected or bureaucratic city leader will likely ever be held accountable for anything. Hudson’s successor at the Bartlesville Examiner Enterprise, Andy Dossett, confirmed the demise of actual journalism in the area as he recently stood before the city council, a month after their vote to continue unmoderated drag shows with children present, for the sole purpose of praising them, not ensuring they remain accountable to voters (see video, item 4, timestamp 2:55).
Andy Dossett’s May 1st comments to the city council:
“Normally, I just am an observer as I work for the newspaper. But I just wanted to say I really appreciate the city council and everything you guys have been going through and you’ve been doing and the city staff as well. You guys have been under a lot of pressure and um thank you guys for giving me a lot of things to write about first of all. Um but thank you guys for just, um and women um for being steadfast. And I know you guys don’t get a lot of appreciation for what you have to go through, what you have to deal with, I do really appreciate you guys uh listening and hearing the citizens and being able to make decisions. And I know we have a water crisis, a lot of other things going on, there’s budgets, there’s things are happening, things are changing in Bartlesville, a lot of people are moving here, this town is expanding and there are growing pains during that time and I just really appreciate you volunteering and doing this job, well some of you guys get paid, but it’s not enough (motions to the city manager and city attorney and laughs knowingly) so anyways, thank you guys for everything you do.”
Hudson’s protégé learned well. Considering that, until recently, Dossett’s ‘about me’ tagline on his photography site was a rather bizarre quote from Mrs. Doubtfire, his allegiance in the public drag debate may be obvious. “I’m a hip old granny who can hip-hop, bebop, dance til ya drop and yo yo, make a wicked cup of cocoa.”
Jon & Michal Lindblom
Jon Lindbom is a pediatric dentist who practices at Safari Smiles and serves on the board of OKEQ-Bartlesville, the group that threatened his community with litigation should their public drag shows be limited. In his frequent social media pontifications, he specifically mentions the public drag around kids issue and promptly diverts to guns or AI as what the town should really be focused on.
His wife Michal is on the board of Ray of Hope, the group that largely determines who is and is not successfully prosecuted for sex crimes against children in the area.
Despite his wife being involved with Ray of Hope, Lindblom is determined to defend Mayor Copeland, Loren Roszel and Jim Curd for voting in another year of drag for kids. He states we “have to share space” but never mentions what happened in that shared space last September. It’s no longer fashionable to hold anyone of significant intersectionality responsible for their behavior. No surprise, Lindblom links to an article by city council cheerleader Andy Dossett.
When Michal Lindblom updates her Facebook profile picture, the likes and thumbs ups flow in from names closely tied to both the LGBT activists (OKEQ) and those who are supposed to be protecting children (Ray of Hope). The Lindblom’s posts also reveal that much of the leadership of both organizations frequently socialize and drink together. It’s a bit like an activists’ affirmation club. Whether your activism publicly requires you to protect children or expose them to gender-confused adult men wearing women’s lingerie doesn’t really matter. As long as you affirm every position presented with great celebration, you’re in.
The Lindbloms also appear to be close personal friends of John and Annie Saltsman, the owners of The Eatery by 3 Kids & A Cake, with Michal and Annie serving together on the Ray of Hope board and the couples regularly attending events together, most recently a Lizzo concert.
OKEQ-Bartlesville vice president Sheena Hayes recently emoted in court, as she sought to silence opposition to public drag shows, about how her friend Annie Saltsman had been unfairly persecuted for her LGBT support and feared for her safety and livelihood. The truth is Saltsman’s business makes perverted pastries, and many Bartlesville residents took their dollars elsewhere.
From previous reporting:
The Eatery - As proof that LGBT activists compulsively seek to sexualize nearly everything, within its menu behind its public-facing menu, The Eatery by 3 Kids & A Cake specializes in a full menu of obscene, custom, LGBT cakes, which may be the cause of any unfriendly calls they may or may not be getting. Just another “family friendly” establishment wondering why everyone is so mean to them. After the outing of its pornographic menu, The Eatery pulled the options below off of its online ordering menu.
Yet, Annie Saltsman and Michal Lindbom gather quarterly at Ray of Hope board meetings to protect the town’s children from over-sexualization. Don’t worry, they’re ‘trusted adults’ who would never ‘compartmentalize their behavior’:
Of all Ray of Hope board members discussed thus far, this publication can find no solid evidence to say any bring relevant qualifications or professional experience related to the mission of the organization as providing support and forensics for domestic and sexual assault victims. Board president Champagne Kane is a realtor and business development specialist for the local tech school. Michal Lindblom renovates and leases houses under Lindblom Properties Noje, LLC. Annie Saltsman runs a restaurant/bakery. Having a largely unqualified board of directors raises serious questions about the non-profit’s actual mission and process for selecting its advisors.
Strings on Federal Funding Pushing Ray of Hope from Advocacy to Activism: Public Awareness Propaganda and Redefining the Victim
Bartlesville citizens should remain aware that Ray of Hope receives a significant amount of taxpayer funding annually:
According to Rhonda Hudson, Ray of Hope receives federal money, partially from a Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) grant through the US Department of Justice (DOJ). These funds are historically earmarked to specifically serve victims of serious crime. As with everything DC bureaucrats control, the guidelines, requirements and allowable uses of VOCA funds have become increasingly woke.
Two notable changes to VOCA grant guidance in recent years may be further working to align non-profits like OKEQ and Ray of Hope, thus eroding the checks and balances between local networks of public/private partnerships:
Redefining the Victim - In 2019, the Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) sought to alter how VOCA grant recipients define a victim by including victims who are now perpetrators. From VOCA guidance, “In the final rule, OVC removed the prohibition on perpetrator rehabilitation and counseling, as the prohibition unnecessarily prevented States and communities from fully leveraging all available resources to provide services to these victims, who have been shown to have a great need for such services.” Did you catch that? Perpetrators of crime, including the sexual abuse of children, may now actually be served as victims. What happens to prosecution rates for child sex crimes when the evidence collecting agency considers the criminal to be the victim, and thus a client rather than a suspect?
Money for Propaganda - In 2018, VOC loosened rules to allow these funds to be used for “stand alone public awareness campaigns”. This is funding from the DOJ, the same agency that labeled parents who object to boys in the girls bathroom at public schools as “domestic terrorists”. Expect inaccurate propogandist campaigns dispelling “misinformation” from many VOCA-funding agencies like Ray of Hope.
LGBT Non-profits Further Infiltrate Foster Care System
Just as the push for public drag in Bartlesville began with an activist non-profit based in Tulsa (OKEQ), the local push for LGBT foster homes hails from another Tulsa 501c(3). Predictably, actors from both OKEQ and Ray of Hope are involved, as well as activists within OKDHS and a particular denomination of the new and inclusive ‘Christian’ church. Unlike the Catholic priest, Southern Baptist and Boy Scout abuse scandals, this brewing batch of child vulnerability is all up front with the alternate sexualities of the adults involved. They can do that now because people are more afraid of being called hateful than they are concerned about preventing child sex abuse.
The Village Fosters, a non-profit that recruits and supports foster parents, was formed in December of 2021 by Edwin Andrew Campbell, known as Reverend Andy Campbell of the Yale Avenue Church (Disciples of Christ) in Tulsa.
Campbell was trained at Christian Theological Seminary in Indiana, an LGBT affirming seminary similar to Tulsa’s Phillips Seminary that seeks to rewrite the Christian Bible to suit all lifestyles.
Within a podcast interview with Disciplines of Christ regional minister Pamela Holt, Campbell talks of meeting an OKDHS foster parent recruiter named Comfort Keidel, discussing what role their church should be playing in adopting children through the state and starting The Village Fosters (Tulsa) within Yale Avenue Church. The Tulsa group then provided the seed money for the Bartlesville chapter within Rev. Kelley Becker’s Bartlesville church, also of the Disciples of Christ denomination.
The Village Fosters-Bartlesville chapter began in 2022 but did not last long for Comfort Keidel. This publication reported in depth about Keidel’s state-sponsored activism and departure from OKDHS following the release of a video of Keidel and a child in her care screaming “small dick energy” at pride protestors.
The Village Fosters-Bartlesville actively recruited LGBT foster parents at that same event (OKEQ’s Bartlesville Pride, September 2022) during perverse drag performances before children:
Court and Non-Profit Watch: Are Washington County LGBT Activists Erasing Their Criminal Records to Become Foster Parents?
Ben Ames, the Community Outreach Coordinator for Ray of Hope, is also actively involved within The Village Fosters-Bartlesville as their First Families and Reunification Advocate.
Ames and his spouse Robert Reeves currently foster two young boys through OKDHS. We know this because Ames is not doing a particularly good job of following OKDHS restrictions concerning the posting of pictures of foster children on social media. This publication will not provide an example of such infractions, as those rules are designed to protect children while in state custody.
Both Ben Ames and his brother Andrew (Drew) Ames are connected by participation or position with OKEQ and/or The Village Fosters either personally or through their spouses.
Andrew (Drew) Ames’s spouse Amos Radlinger is a Ray of Hope Committee volunteer:
With a full focus on other people’s children, Radlinger is also involved in KLIFE, a youth mentoring organization that specializes in small group activities, mission trips and retreats.
KLIFE was connected to a decades long string of child sexual abuse cases at the Branson-based Kanakuk Kamps, many related to director Pete Newman. In all, over 100 victims and 30 perpetrators have been identified. A website chronicles the victims’ stories in their own words providing a manual for spotting potential abusers seeking access to children by separating them from their parents and building misplaced trust.
What Crimes is Ames Seeking to Hide and Why?
Andrew (Drew) Ames is currently seeking an expungement of some type of criminal record. It is unclear why the expungement is being requested, but many such requests are commonly related to seeking employment or opportunity that requires candidates to meet certain parameters for safety. Becoming a foster parent, as Ames’ brother and brother-in-law recently have, is just such an opportunity.
The petition is specifically pursuant to Title 22 O.S. Section 18 (11):
Title 22 O.S. Section 18 (11) only deals with expungement of misdemeanor offenses, not felonies. Most employment opportunities only restrict applicants with felony records. It is less common to see an expungement request for a misdemeanor offense:
The OKDHS criminal screening for potential foster parents, if this is in fact the reason for Ames’ request to the court, is extensive:
The only misdemeanor offenses for which foster applications are automatically thrown out are sex-related crimes. Any other misdemeanor crimes would not need to be expunged:
This publication sought to verify the type of crime/s Ames is seeking to erase from his record, but it appears the Washington County District Court has already made those records inaccessible to the public. Given the recent history of progressive judicial activism from multiple district judges in Bartlesville, it’s hard to be shocked.
The last court entry within the Oklahoma State Court Network concerning Ames’ case requesting expungement of criminal records was on December 9, 2022. Oddly, there is no recorded update on the latest hearing in January:
This publication does not have access at this time to determine why Andrew Ames is seeking to expunge his criminal history but can confirm the request is assigned to Special Judge Kyra Franks. Judge Franks handles both family and juvenile deprived (OKDHS) cases in Washington County District Court.
Given the growing number of shocking cases of child sexual abuse within “affirming” foster homes, we hope Judge Williams understands why expunging adult criminal records can be dangerous for children.
The adoptive fathers in the above story were LGBT activists too, sporting the same NOH8 symbol as Tim Hudson’s t-shirt above. The symbol is indicative of the inaccurate propaganda activists systematically spread about legislation protecting children from sexualization. Keeping sex out of schools is “don’t say gay”. Beware the aligning of activism (OKEQ) and the protection of children (Ray of Hope). Inevitably, the real victims (children) will suffer.
Rev. Kelley Becker: The Tie That Binds Those Sexualizing, Protecting, Pastoring and Fostering the Most Vulnerable Children in Bartlesville
Rev. Kelley Becker is a board member for both OKEQ-Bartlesville and Ray of Hope, and houses The Village Fosters-Bartlesville within her Disciples Christian Church.
Becker’s church’s The Village Fosters-Bartlesville chapter is not a filed non-profit, but the Tulsa-based entity, to date, has yet to file 990 tax forms as required or publicly post their board of directors. At this point, it’s impossible to identify all involved parties or assess whose money is behind the push for LGBT foster parents in Washington County.
As painful as it is to lead the reader to the Bartlesville Examiner Enterprise, a newspaper owned by the Gannett Company and operated from the DC area, Kelley Becker is a regular contributor and her bizarre piece following the murder of six people (including three children) within a Nashville Christian school by a self-identified ‘transgender’ biological female is proof of LGBT activism’s denial of its own role in destabilizing America’s youth.
Within the article, Becker stresses the need for mental health funding, yet never mentions how the push to confuse children about their gender may have contributed to shooter Audrey Hale’s actions. In fact, Becker never mentions the suspect or her confusion about her gender. In Becker’s world of deflection, no LGBT individual can ever be held accountable for their actions, and somehow murders, even by a ‘transgender’ individual, prove that we should stop questioning the impact LGBT activism is having on children.
“If we wait to talk about the fact that gun violence is a far greater risk to our children than the LGBTQ+ community, art, or literature, until we aren’t in the aftermath of a mass shooting, we clearly will never talk about it.” - Kelley Becker
According to Becker, “The sad truth is, this nation loves its guns more than its children.” No, Reverend Becker. The real truth is that most of Bartlesville’s and America’s citizens have guns to PROTECT their children and families from the fallout of liberal policies, but Becker clearly knows little about protecting children.
If you’re a little uneasy about the head of the local agency tasked with collecting evidence to prosecute child sex crimes, whose husband founded the LGBT activist group pushing public drag in the presence of children, posing gleefully with the board member of both organizations, who also pastors the church recruiting foster parents of alternative sexualities, for a picture in front of a group of shirtless gay men preparing to march in the pride parade, you might just have healthy protective instincts concerning children.
The group teaching body safety rules should not be led by someone promoting the sexualization of children, publicly or otherwise.
Bartlesville, who is protecting your children?
Tip: It’s Time to Walk the Library
Given Rhonda Hudson (Ray of Hope) was recently reappointed to the town’s library board, residents may want to peruse the local library during ‘pride month’ to ensure the reading material and displays are truly child appropriate. Given OKEQ-Bartlesville used the local library’s address as its own for some time, and knowing Enid is in a major battle against LGBT pornography and adult-oriented displays due to another activist group, a check is warranted.
Excellent reporting!!
Hundreds of thoughts went through my mind, as I read this, but the ones at the top are as follows:
1. This is a clear example of subversive, total capture of a body, institution or wide reaching function, be it community, government or business. This smacks of the intentional and diabolical intersections we saw, between big pharma boards and government health agencies (FDA/CDC). Those cross overs were intended to have maximum benefit for the government institutions and companies and zero benefit for the general public, they manipulated, profited off of and killed.
2. When you see so many red flags surrounding one issue (child safety), it's a sure bet, that there's a plan behind/undergirding the obvious institutional capture. You rightly point this out...activist groomers, tied to child centric non-profits, with intersecting admin/leaders - who have little to no experience in their stated purpose and then you have sympathetic press and DA - this is fertile ground for groomers and abusers - and the children will be the ones who pay the price for the "benefit of the doubt" many useful idiots will call for.
3. This and other stories point to a common and consistent theme - the sexualization of children is the goal of these activist and in many cases self professed "child protectors". I will not be surprised if in 10, 15 or 20 years, there are stories done on the rampant abuse of children in this town and the systemic web of actors, that participated and covered it up, for decades.
As I said before, the ones who will have paid the price won't be the abusers, it will be the children who were abused and damaged for life. We've seen this time and time again and still the perverts are allowed to reign, in seats of power.
Great work.
Diversity is the Key to unity. Through Diversity Bartlesville can save itself, from its crime problem!
WARNING: Are you considering a trip to Bartlesville Oklahoma?
THINK AGAIN!
Your chances of being the victim of Crime is 1 in 33!
https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/ok/bartlesville/crime#description
With a crime rate of 31 per one thousand residents, Bartlesville has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 33. Within Oklahoma, more than 85% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Bartlesville.
Importantly, when you compare Bartlesville to other communities of similar population, then Bartlesville crime rate (violent and property crimes combined) is quite a bit higher than average. Regardless of how Bartlesville does relative to all communities in America of all sizes, when NeighborhoodScout compared it to communities of similar population size, its crime rate per thousand residents stands out as higher than most.
IMMIGRATION is the KEY to DIVERSITY! More Immigrants, Refugees and Migrants the better the Diversity of the City of Bartlesville and perhaps the lower the crime rate! Now let us turn to take a look at how Bartlesville does for violent crimes specifically, and then how it does for property crimes. This is important because the overall crime rate can be further illuminated by understanding if violent crime or property crimes (or both) are the major contributors to the general rate of crime in Bartlesville.
From our analysis, we discovered that violent crime in Bartlesville occurs at a rate higher than in most communities of all population sizes in America. The chance that a person will become a victim of a violent crime in Bartlesville; such as armed robbery, aggravated assault, rape or murder; is 1 in 312. This equates to a rate of 3 per one thousand inhabitants. Significantly, based on the number of murders reported by the FBI and the number of residents living in the city, NeighborhoodScout's analysis shows that Bartlesville experiences one of the higher murder rates in the nation when compared with cities and towns for all sizes of population, from the largest to the smallest.
In addition, NeighborhoodScout found that a lot of the crime that takes place in Bartlesville is property crime. Property crimes that are tracked for this analysis are burglary, larceny over fifty dollars, motor vehicle theft, and arson. In Bartlesville, your chance of becoming a victim of a property crime is one in 36, which is a rate of 28 per one thousand population.
We believe after a few bus loads of migrants and immigrants to bartlesville then perhaps the City father's who voted in the Drag Shows and Tranny Tuesdays will see that it was better before they started messing with the status quo?
Or maybe the POINT is you want the Tranny Tuesday events and Drag Show indoctrination story times?
