Christine Quinn
For the 40th anniversary of the 1969 Stonewall Rebellion, to once again publicly prove for the record how rude and ungrateful she is, Missy Crissy once again ignored the STONEWALL Veterans' Association of the history-making Stonewall Rebellion. It's really queer of her as we changed her life; she didn't change ours. She got her job indirectly through us not vice versa. The positive news is that the S.V.A. was acknowledged and honored in so many other places in New York, in America and in Europe and by so many other people and groups with higher status than a councilperson on the down and under multiple (federal, state and city) govenmental investigations for corruption, etc..
Moreover, the S.V.A. has been here in New York City a helluva lot longer than transplant her and the reality is that the S.V.A. will be here a helluva lot longer than her. Her negative fate will hopefully sealed in mid-September when she likely loses the primary election for councilmember to a respectful and honest Gay candidate or, in the alternative, in January when the finally wised-up current City Council and new councilmembers choose somebody independent, qualified, trustworthy, responsible and deserving as the next Speaker. It should not be her! At a debate at a NYU room, Chris Quinn's disfavor has so spread that there were protestors against her, many with anti-Quinn signs and anti-Quinn chants from Gay people, and many others against her and her abuses! This is unheard of in the Gay community against a Gay candidate! The scene was an embarrassing first (especially for her) this election season -- even in New York City!
Although not directly affecting the S.V.A. -- only because Miss Chris gives the Stonewall Veterans nothing anyway -- her biggest and current outrage is the "Speaker Slush Scandal". Asa New York Civic clarified: "The decider in which a Councilmember gets member items, and how large they are, is Council Speaker Christine Quinn. She has not been accused of any crime(s) yet, but she received the largest sums for non-profits on a round-the-year basis, and had oversight over the dispensing of funds". After her political pal Miguel Martinez was charged, arrested, resigned from the Council, pleaded guilty to abuse of non-profit organization funds and went to jail, newspapers referred to him as the "Slush Puppy"! Guess who they infer as the "Slush Dawg"?
