Stand4Truth: The Truth About Homosexuality--Not Born That Way


This panel was particularly interesting.

First, Janet Boynes, a former lesbian, testified of her transformation.

She discussed the abandonment and abuse which she had endured, from her step-father and from her mother.

Then she talked about he she became an abuser in turn and a lesbian.

The hurt, the pain that she felt inside could not be fixed with same-sex relationships.

The love that she sought, she could not find in homosexuality.

She received Christ into her life again, and she transformed little by little.

In effect, she learned how to be a woman.

Ryan Sorbo, seated on the right, went undercover into gay bars to find out what they thought about the origins of homosexuality.

The answers were shocking!


Most of the men candidly admitted that they had been raped, molested, abused by loved ones.

Many of them in turn molested children, One of the perverts candidly admitted that he would be in a lot of trouble if the police found out what he had done.

Here is the extended undercover video:

This information was enlightening for understanding this problem.

And also very disturbing.

Abuse breeds abuse.

Hurt people hurt people.

Enough is enough.

We cannot keep treating same-sex behavior like a benign eccentricity.

In fact, those words I learned from Brian Camenker, the President of MassResistance.

Instead of strictly discussing the true origins of homosexuality, he talked about the enablers, the militants who are hurting our society, and stealing our liberty.



Here are further comments from the panel.

Stand4Truth: Standing Up to LGBT Bigotry


Our moderator/leader presented to the audience a diverse, well-received community of activists, academics, and articulate leaders who had see bigotry of a different form in the past.

A panel of experts, including a therapist, an attorney, and a pastor who had lived through the Civil Rights Movement, commented on the slow and subversive destruction of our culture because of the LGBT movement.

Matt Staver outlined the disturbing erosion of our liberties at the hands of the militant homosexual lobby:




Here are some scenes from the panel:



Dr. David Pickup

Pastor Dave Welch

Pastor Bill Owens

Matt Staver

Here's the video of their discussion:



Pastor Dave Welch was one of the Houston Five pastors who stood up to the openly gay Houston mayor Annise Parker and stopped the "non-discrimination" ordinance, which would have allowed men to enter into any public facility meant for women only.

It also would have shut down churches, charities, and small businesses owned by conscientious objectors who refused to participate in a homosexual wedding or other ceremony.

If they can stand up to LGBT hate in Houston, they can do it anywhere.

Stand4Truth Conference: Day One (Daylight) with Dr. David Pickup

As I had written in a previous post, I landed in Houston at 2am on Friday, October 28th.

I had enough time to get some rest.

Thankfully, the conference did not start until the late afternoon.

Yes, we had police present at the conference.

A few radical LGBT groups were manifesting to protest.

At the hotel, though, there was little to no disturbance at all.

Sadly, the meeting was not the most well-attended.

According to one source, a mega church had offered resources, time and even confirmed a large turnout to attend. But the church backed out at the last minute.

Really sad.

In spite of the less than expected turnout, it was a really eye-opening conference.

Nationally renowned pastors and speakers arrived, declaring their staunch affirmation for God and Country.

The need for the Gospel to be preached in our schools and in our society could not be more emphatic.

Licensed professionals, like Dr. David Pickup, explained what true reparative therapy is all about.

It is NOT about trying gay men to give up their lifestyle.

Homosexual feelings are a manifestation of deeper pain, especially for men who do not want to feel that way.

Dr. David Pickup could not have made it clearer: his practice is all about restoring peace to his clients.

And the same-sex attractions fall away.

It;s about helping men who have endured unspeakable trauma as children, violent attacks to their identity. Many of his clients had no contact, felt no affection from their fathers. In many cases, they did not know their fathers at all!

Dr. David Pickup

For Dr. Pickup, this work is particularly personal, because he was molested as a kid, and struggled with his sexual identity as a result.

The wholeness he presented to the audience was particularly inspiring.

We need to fight against the LGBT agenda because in far too many cases, the reason why men and women struggle with same-sex attraction has nothing to do with sex.

It has everything to do with the three things that everyone needs:

1. Affirmation

2. Acceptance

3. Approval.

Indeed, many of us take these elements of our formative years ... for granted.

But with a world which has diminished fatherhood and shamed manhood, should we be surprised by the growing number of "gay men"?

He also identified why young people who grow up thinking that they are "born that way", because they lack the formative needs before they realize that they are not receiving them.

Quite a revelation.

Here are some of his comments at the Stand4Truth Conference:



Here he outlines clearly what reparative therapy is NOT!



It's not about making people feel ashamed of themselves.

It is not based on aversion techniques.

It's about truth. Knowing the truth about your innate value before God.

It's about scientific evidence.

It's about standing for what is right and standing up to the lies.

When he shared with the audience that he was a victim of abuse, it really shocked and wakened everyone up at the same time.

Stand4Truth Conference Day One: Arriving in Houston

I had never planned my own airplane trip before.

Accomplishing new tasks does not have to be scary.

What we all need to know is that we have nothing to fear from trying, from expanding, from reaching out and going to new places and doing new things.

Houston Texas!

I have never been to a Southern State before - at least a state in the Deep South!

But this was my chance.

I feel so much gratitude to MassResistance, and the Director Brian Camenker.

I had long looked forward to learning more about the underlying issues associated with same-sex behavior, attraction, and the inimical, destructive LGBT agenda.

I learned a great deal from this conference.

But first, I just want to write about what it was like getting there.

A good friend of mine, Tracy Hopkins, drove me to the airport.

I was really impressed with how much she knew about getting from point A to Point B at LAX.

I ended up arriving at the airport much sooner than needed, but that was no big deal.

It was great to see so many people ready to take off to different places all over the country.

The flight to Houston was delayed for one hour, and it seemed it would extend to an hour and a half.

Thankfully, the delay lasted only one hour.




Off we go to Houston!

I ended up landing in Texas at 2:00am Friday morning!

I was tired. I had not slept for nearly 24 hours!

But I was glad to be in Texas.

The Hobby Airport was a sight to behold!

Only in Texas will they tell visitors not to bring in UN-licensed firearms.

Reminder: open carry is legal in Texas, and the crime rates going down testify to its effectiveness!

The architecture and artifacts in Hobby Airport were nice to see, too:



What a wonderful place to be!

More on what happened that morning, October 28th, 2016 soon!

"Corrupted" Republican Millennials (?) Helping the Democratic Candidate Al Murastuchi?

Now this is just sad.

The corrupted young Republicans I had written about last night are indeed  helping the Democratic cause.

I wish it were not so.

And yet, what more can one say when looking at the photo below (this photo comes from Al Muratsuchi's Campaign Facebook Wall ...


Still need a little help?

Check this out:




Who are those two in the corner? They look familiar ..


Guess who?

Christopher Castillo and Joseph Lopez.

Christopher Castillo and Joseph Lopez

This is unreal.

I had written about these two young Republicans (if they can still be called Republicans).

They indeed have been corrupted, if they think that frequenting and standing in solidarity with Crooked Al Muratsuchi and his corrosive, illiberal regressive clan of legislators (like the anti-Liberty Ricardo Lara and Evan Low) is doing anyone any good.

Do they not realize that this race, the Assembly race for District 66 is the #1 Race in the entire state?

Why?!

Why would they be frequenting the campaign office of the Democratic challenger going after the #1 Republican target in the state of California?

What is the matter with these two?!

Does the disappointment grow any deeper?

Who is motivating some of these young Republicans to do such foolish things?

Who indeed?



Who Has More Volunteers: Al Murastuchi or David Hadley?

So, which candidate does a better job of bringing in volunteers to help with the cause?

Who indeed?

Check out this advertisement:


One resident visited the Al Muratsuchi campaign office to find out what was going on with this event.

According to his view, only eight people showed up.

Lonely corner

Eight people? That's it?!

In contrast, how many people worked for David Hadley's campaign over the weekend?

Let the pictures speak for themselves:



How about this?


These lovely ladies deserve so much respect, too!


This photo shows how large the Orange Club Turnout was on October 30th, too!



Here are other photos showcasing the incredible support for the Hadley Campaign:



Who has the momentum?

Who has the community support?

His name is David Hadley!

ICYMI: Pennsylvania and Pat Toomey: The Key(stone) to Election 2016

I apologize for reprinting this article.

But this issue is extremely important.

We need to make sure that US Senator Pat Toomey wins re-election in Pennsylvania.

Truly, the Keystone State is the key to unlock consummate Trump victory across the country!

Make it happen! Let's Make the Rest Belt a Steel Belt once again, and Make America Great Again in the process!

--Arthur Schaper


Pennsylvania---nicknamed the Keystone State--has a soft spot in my heart.

My mother was born in Pittsburg while her father was fighting in the Korean War. When I was younger, I visited my Aunt Frannie’s home in West Mefflin. I can’t say I looked forward to seeing her, but it was a memorable wonder looking over the hillside where her towering two-story home stood. The valley led down to the urban core of Pittsburg. Even then anyone with two eyes in their head could see how the steel and other manufacturing industries were hitting hard times. That was 1992, and the crooked trade deals and crony crapitalism have only hurt working families more.



Pennsylvania’s voting contingency contains all the elements of the Not-So-Silent majority—a strong, endearing ethnic enclave of working and middle-class voters—define Election 2016. They will assure (or doom) Trump’s Presidential chances this year. The hard times have been particularly rough for them. For those who still register as Democrat, it’s more out of tradition and deference to the Democratic Party of their parents’ (and grandparents’) time. Republicans are now out-registering Democrats in a state which has not gone Republican in Presidential years since 1988. Such good news cannot pass by unread … and reread.


Even though the incumbent Republican governor lost his re-election bid in 2014 (he didn’t govern as a Republican, did not advance right-to-work, wanted to raise taxes, and refused to privatize the liquor industry), Pennsylvania Republicans expanded their numbers in the Harrisburg state legislature. Five months later, voters in Philadelphia elected a Republican assemblyman, the first time in over twenty years! The ground game is looking better for Republicans this year.

And one man at the top of the state-wide ticket is particularly important, and will very likely make or break not just control of the United States Senate, but the Presidency.

Pat Toomey.

I like this guy.

This man typified the Tea Party miracle wave of 2010.

Edging out a fellow Congressman, a veteran named Joe Sestak, Toomey squeaked out a narrow victory. But what a win, part of the seven-seat gains which Republicans recouped in 2010.

Most politicos don’t even remember, but Toomey faced a long road to the U.S. Senate. In 2004, he challenged former Republican US Senator Arlen Specter. Ironically, Specter was as pink as they come on Republican terms, and would eventually return to his Democratic roots after Obama’s election. The ghost of an incumbent was a RINO in 2004, leaning toward the Democrats with his refusal to vote for a conviction following the Clinton (Bill, not Hillary) impeachment in the House. Specter played to the center, as if his lack of ideological conviction was an asset. He even crowed about his “centrism” in  weekly news magazines. Toomey wanted to upset that establishment mentality.

He also targeted the profligate, spend-thrift  ways of Washington. Toomey’s brand—fiscally prudent without a fault--has defined his tenure, from a local townsman to US Senator.

A conservative born in Providence Rhode Island (who would have guessed? Awful Surprising and Awful Gratifying), Toomey studied Government at La Salle University in Pennsylvania, and never looked back.

After working in the corporate sector, he opened up his own restaurant with his brothers. He then served on the Allentown Governing Board, and put forth a charter which would require a supermajority for any tax increases in the city. The voters approved.



In 1998, he ran for an open Congressional seat, one which an incumbent Democrat was giving up. Who could blame him, since Republicans had taken over four years ago! Democrats love getting elected, but only when their team holds all the seats.

Toomey is a rare bird, and was a welcome politico even then. In his Congressional bid, Toomey pledged to serve three terms, and he kept his promise. In two of the elections, he faced off against the same President of Bethlehem Steel, but beat him down.
An impressive record, to say the least.

Election 2004 would not be Toomey’s time to shine, but instead of sulking and sitting out, Toomey became President of the Club for Growth.  Six years later, Toomey would defeat Sestak, who had in turn defeated the desperate long-term incumbent Arlen Specter during their unlikely, contentious Democratic Primary.

As a U.S Senator, Toomey has not forgotten his roots. He fights for public safety officers. He is pro-life, but he has also taken care to keep the major Democratic hubs, Pittsburg and Philadelphia, within his reach. The moment he was sworn in, Toomey knew he would endurest another bruising fight for his seat in 2016. He supports school choice, and has worked with both sides (sometimes to his political detriment) to ensure student safety in their classrooms.



He has also been a staunch opponent of illegal immigration since his tenure in the House. This Northeastern elected official, 3,000 miles away, did more to commemorate the tragic and tragically unnecessary death of Kate Steinle. He introduced one of two key bills to stop sanctuary cities in this country. My two US Senators did and said nothing, since they side with illegals more than their constituents. Toomey voted against the Gang of Eight bill in 2013.

On financial matters, he voted against the fiscal cliff, tax-raising, hair-rising budget deal in 2012. His brand of take-no-prisoners budgeting is exactly what we need in Washington. I still remember him coming out of the last minute Fiscal Cliff drama, and telling the country at large: “We have to stop the spending! If we have to shut the government down, then let’s do it!”

His sparring in the race of his lifetime has been particularly outstanding. His opponent, Katie McGinty, has to spend more time running away from Crooked Hillary and her anti-working class platform. The Trump card is all played out, too.



Pennsylvania is the key to Election 2016. The Keystone state is within striking distance for Trump. Toomey’s re-election chances are a pure toss-up. Toomey wins, Trump can likely win, and all of us win.

Cudahy City Council Corruptitos No-Show Two Meetings in a Row!

Cudahy City Councilmember Jack Guerrero was the only city council members to show up to the two city council meetings scheduled for the second and fourth Mondays in the month.

Guerrero notified the public about the no-show corruptitos on October 10:

From the October 10th meeting
Click on the link under the photo to get more information.

Here's a caption comment:

With friends at the Cudahy City Council meeting this evening. Sadly, the meeting was canceled at the last minute, due to lack of quorum... — with Sergio VasquezDavid VasquezSandra OrozcoFrank DernRoman Gonzalez and Laura Dean.

For the record, Guerrero was expecting to conduct a lot of city business at the October 10th meeting:

This evening, the Cudahy City Council will convene for its regular City Council meeting. Despite significant issues facing the City (including a severely unbalanced budget already three months late, and the likely depletion of the City's general reserve balance by fiscal year-end), the Council loves to entertain non-binding resolutions, serially on a host of topics...

Today, the Council will suggest a non-binding resolution recognizing infant loss awareness month. Conspicuously absent from the resolution is any reference to the evils of abortion. I will propose an amendment to the resolution to include condemnation of Roe v. Wade, and solidarity with families, women, and the victimized children impacted by the horrors of this practice.


Today, the Council will also consider a non-binding resolution condemning "hateful speech directed at Muslims..." I will propose an amendment to include hateful speech/ actions directed at Christians as well, and more broadly, condemnation of violence and hateful actions directed at Americans of all religious backgrounds.

And on October 24th, the Cudahy City Council majority of Corruptitos were again a no-show:


For the record, at the October 24th meeting, the council was supposed to honor Nick the Greek for his 41st year as a citizen of the United Staets.

Look at the community which showed up in support for Jack Guerrero.

Here are his comments in full:

With residents and constituents at today's city council meeting in Cudahy, CA; but alas, no council members in sight. Sadly, the meeting is cancelled due to lack of quorum...

#ShameOnAbsentCouncilMembers
#DoNotRunAwayFromConstituents

#StandUpForResidents

This is outrageous!

Two regular meetings cancelled in a row?!

What is the matter with these boys?

This is what happens when voters elect children instead of adults:




They need to go!

No more corruptitos!

LA Times Christine Mai-Duc: Anti-GOP, anti-Hadley Propagandist

The Los Angeles Times is one of the Left Coast's most well-known versions of American Pravda.

The editors will promote anything and everything which promotes a liberal agenda, and tries to split Republicans in this precarious state.

When "Aunt" Janice Hahn hosted her gun-control sit-in (as if!), Christine Mai-Duc went out of her way to play Congresswoman Hahn's compassion and commiseration with the heartache of families who had lost loved ones to gun violence.

Christine Mai-Duc (Credit: Twitter)


The truth is, the Los Angeles Pravda will do whatever it can to make gun-control activists look like centered and well-adjusted proponents, while alienating and marginalizing those who support the Second Amendment and recognize that the disturbing crime rates have more to do with culture breakdown and the lack of swift enforcement and protection in urban communities.

God bless the Police Department, but when seconds count, law enforcement is minutes away.

Now Mai-Duc is looking for more reasons to slam Assemblyman David Hadley (R-Torrance), who is running in a tight right against Al "Big Oil" Muratsuchi.

Here is the first top headline.

This is Essential Politics, our daily feed on California politics and government news. Here's what we're watching:

An independent expenditure committee backed by GOP mega-donor Charles Munger Jr. has spent more than $1 million on one coastal Los Angeles County Assembly race.

State ethics watchdog asks court to force assemblyman's campaign to turn over documents for investigation

An ethics watchdog can ask anything. It does not mean that the candidate has to do it, nor does it mean that the candidate has done something wrong.

Once again, this lawsuit attempt through the FPPC is a dilatory tactic to slow down the Hadley campaign's growing momentum.

The campaign of Assemblyman David Hadley (R-Manhattan Beach) has delayed turning over documents related to an official investigation into his campaign practices, according to court documents filed by the state Fair Political Practices Commission.

Can a campaign delay turning over something? Anything? People working on campaigns can choose to turn over or not turn over information.

Campaigns are not people, Christine. Your metonymy is very weak and misleading.

The investigation grew out of a complaint from Hadley's opponent, Democrat Al Muratsuchi, that claims Hadley's campaign was illegally coordinating with an independent expenditure committee that also supported Hadley.

The investigation grew out of a complaint from the Muratsuchi camp. They have instigated this insidious charge.

By the way, why hasn't the Los Angeles Times gone after the Muratsuchi camp for failing to list the campaign name and FPPC number on a front page of the Daily Breeze a few months ago?

The 66th Republican Central Committee issued a complaint about this matter. Why silence from the press?


Why did the FPPC kick this back to the Central Committee?

Notice also that there is no indication that Al Muratsuchi or his campaign has been exonerated of any wrongdoing. 

Once again, we have an example in which "some animals are more equal than others."

In a letter to the FPPC, Muratsuchi claimed Hadley's campaign and Spirit of Democracy, a group funded mostly by Republican donor Charles Munger, Jr., shared consultant Steven Presson during at least part of the primary campaign for Assembly District 66.

This is such a nothing burger. This Presson fellow broke away from any connection or alliance with the Spirit of Democracy PAC before joining with Hadley's campaign.

Please, let us move on. Al Muratsuchi's sad sack tactic of blaming all his woes as a campaigner on Charles Munger Jr is just plain sad.



It's Muratsuchi's fault that he did what the teachers' unions told him to do. It's his fault that he could not get out the vote for his campaign in 2014. It's his fault that he did not fight hard for every vote and reach out to every constituent.



In court documents filed Oct. 13, FPPC special investigator Garrett Micheels said he initially emailed Hadley Aug. 4, asking him to voluntarily provide certain records to the commission's enforcement division.

"Voluntarily provide"? Really?

If Garrett Micheels was so worried about crime and corruption, why did he essentially "ask nicely"?

This is a lot of smoke and mirrors.

The records requested included emails, letters and text messages between Jan. 1 and June 7 between Presson and the Hadley campaign, or any other individuals or groups concerning the Hadley race.

"Or any other individuals concerning the Hadley race." Where would this fishing expedition end? Do they want my emails? Do they want the emails of every constituent who is voting for David Hadley? Do they want the emails from all the elected officials in the South Bay who had endorsed and are pledging to vote for him?!

This is a witch-hunt in search of a witch. This is an investigation in search of a crime, which was in fact alluded to by the Muratsuchi campaign, whose handlers had screwed and engaged in their own violation (See above).

The next day, Presson responded that the campaign would require a subpoena to "avoid possible public exposure to sensitive emails within the Hadley campaign regarding our strategy."

Absolutely! What is wrong with a campaign wanted to keep out of the Democratic opponent's eyes and hands their own tactics?

There is nothing wrong with that, nor does it suggest that the Hadley campaign is engaging in anything suspect.

After a subpoena was issued on Aug. 12, Micheels said in court documents, Hadley retained attorney Steve Churchwell, who asked for extensions to produce the documents at least three times, but never provided the records.

When will Muratsuchi produce the documents showing that his millions are coming from special interests like Big Oil?



On Sept. 27, Hadley produced some of the documents, court filings say, but wrote to explain that he was withholding his communications with Presson because there are "hundreds or thousands of such correspondences" that contained "sensitive/confidential campaign communications" that he said he had not had the time to review. As of Friday, the FPPC says, they have not received the rest of the documents requested.

Reminder: Muratsuchi and company are looking for any lame excuse to divert Hadley's campaign staff and resources away from the election.

This is just sad.

Ms. Mai-Duc has no interest in writing about Al Muratsuchi's campaign slip-ups. Where is the column indicating that a judge forced Muratsuchi to remove "prosecutor" from his ballot designation?

Where is the information itemizing how much money he is raking in .... from outside the district?

Where is the expose revealing how many Japanese-Americans, including long-standing Democrats, who have refused to endorse Al and are getting behind Hadley's re-election?

How about the massive backlash which Muratsuchi has faced for his deceptive and immoral signs posted throughout the South Bay, which seemed to tie Hadley and Trump together as a unity ticket?

All of this corrupt and shady, yet Christine Mai-Duc writes nothing about it. 

Talk about shoddy journalism, to say the least.

"There is only one reason Hadley would conceal documents, and that is because he is guilty and is trying to hide the evidence," said Mike Shimpock, a consultant for the Muratsuchi campaign.

Baloney, Mike Shimpock should explain why his client blew off fifteen constituents at a neighborhood coffee on October 25th:



A Hadley campaign spokesman declined to comment and Churchwell did not return a request for comment.

Oral arguments in the case are scheduled for 2 p.m. Friday in the Sacramento County Superior Court.'

All of this will turn out well in the end, when David Hadley returns to the state assembly, and Al Muratsuchi's political career ends for good.

As for Christine Mai-Duc, her article reeks with anti-GOP, anti-Hadley bias, looking for every change to malign or short-change his campaign.

This is all wrong.

No wonder more residents and readers in the South Bay are rejecting the Los Angeles times. One resident told me that he would not even wrap dead fish in a copy of the Times.

No surprise to me.

Pastor Bill Owens Exposes LGBT Abuse of the Civil Rights Movement

Pastor Bill Owens is a veteran of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.

He is a life-long humanitarian too, working trhough the Gospel to change the lives of young and troubled people to excel in education and prosper in their lives.

His ministry was called "Give Them a Chance Ministres."

He now heads the Coalition of African-American Pastors.

They have fought agaisnst

He saw men and women killed for the fight.

He talked about the strong stance which Rosa Parks took on that bus in Birmingham, Alabama.

She simply refused to give up her front seat.

Bill Owens looked back on the Civil Rights Movement then, and how the LGBT Agenda studied the movement, co-opted it, distorted the movement, and has been beating on the country as a whole every since.

They basically robbed the movement.

Now the LGBT lobby is not only discrimination against black people, but going after everyone else.

Check out his interview with me at the Stand4Truth Conference in Houston Texas:



The Civil Rights Movement is a remarkable and sometimes terrifying history.

People need to understand that black people fought for their rights against big government bullies and other bigots.

The same big government bullies and bigots are now attacking everyone who refuses to comply and submit to the abusive, destructive homosexual agenda.

Here are his final remarks:


It was a really eye-opening interview for me.

I was really glad to learn from this powerful and influential black pastor.

It's time for all of us of faith and conscience to stand up and stand for truth!

Because you and I shall know the truth, and the truth shall set us free!

Scenes from A Neighborhood Coffee--and the Democratic Host Does Not Show Up ...







Crooked Al Muratsuchi did not show up to his own Neighborhood coffee.

He must have thought that he was going to get an easy meeting with prospective constituents.

But instead of demonstrating integrity or courage, he decided to run away from challenging uestions from concerns citizens.

What kind of a candidate for office just runs away?

Or worse, plans an event to meet with prospective voters, but blows them off?!

Call Al Muratsuchi's camaign office, and demand some answers for his rude and cowardly behavior!

On financial matters, he voted against the fiscal cliff, tax-raising, hair-rising budget deal in 2012. His brand of take-no-prisoners budgeting is exactly what we need in Washington. I still remember him coming out of the last minute Fiscal Cliff drama, and telling the country at large: “We have to stop the spending! If we have to shut the government down, then let’s do it!”

His sparring in the race of his lifetime has been particularly outstanding. His opponent, Katie McGinty, has to spend more time running away from Crooked Hillary and her anti-working class platform. The Trump card is all played out, too.


Pennsylvania is the key to Election 2016. The Keystone state is within striking distance for Trump. Toomey’s re-election chances are a pure toss-up. Toomey wins, Trump can likely win, and all of us win.

Stand4Truth: What True Reparative Therapy is

Dr. David Pickup tells the truth about his calling in Reparative Therapy.

He helps men, young and old, to deal with unwanted sexual attraction which often results from sexual abusive or distance and a lack of attention, affirmation, affection from our fathers.

Fatherhood is absolutely crucial for young men.

This needs to be restored!

John Paul Tabakian, and the Corruption of Republican Millennials

I have wanted to follow Assemblyman David Hadley's model to the greatest degree possible.

Unity of the political center and the political right is a necessity for bringing back political balance to the state of California.

And yet, within the Republican Party of California, there are subversive elements which have no interest in unity.

They are not promoting local candidates.

They are not raising money or making phone calls for candidates.

They are resolutely committed to pushing an aberrant agenda, one which will hurt the society and culture which the Republican Party wants to save.

Los Angeles County is the largest county--by population--in the country.

It is worth our while to start taking back territory, rather than succumbing to a culture gone weak in the knees and soft in the head.

Indeed, conservatives need to reach out to the younger generation.

They need to lay down clear principles.

We need to stop caving to the culture, and start shaping.

This is the crucial divide in many institutions, especially the Republican Party of Los Angeles County.

And one figurehead in the movement to drift with the left-leaning trends of our society?



John Paul Tabakian.

He supports along boys to go into girls' bathrooms in public schools.

He has no interest in standing up to the gay marriage, pro-abortion onslaught overwhelming the march through the institutions.

He is a major proponent of illegal aliens and amnesty.

This issue has particulary hurt a number of young Republicans and conservatives in the LA area.

But in more ways than just disappointment.

He has been twisting the minds of a number of active--or at least interested--millenials in the Los Angeles area.

Who knows what he promises them, although legislative staffers and group leaders have informed me that he is all talk, all hot air promises, but has never really delivered on anything.

He had induced Omar Navarro to attack elected officials and residents in the city of Torrance.

He very likely led him to attack me and others personally, too.

Omar Navarro and I have since repaired any setbacks, and sources tell me that Tabakian tried to get back into Omar's good graces, now that his influence and opportunities have expanded working with the Beach Cities Republicans.

Omar Navarro now sits as Second VP because the previous Second VP, Damien McDowell, was caught up in the left-leaning dissimulation of Tabakian and Co.

Damien McDowell

Check out this video in which, McDowell made a sad attempt to stage some sort of a coup against me and the rest of the club.



The members of the club booed and shooed them out, along with me.

It was a shameful display to push a left-wing agenda, and starting with trying to have me removed as President.

The good news is that my support from within the club and toward pushing for a panoply of true-red conservative ideals has attracted more people to join the club and for more people to get involved and ensure a conservative resurgence in the South Bay and throughout Los Angeles County.

More young people have joined the Beach Cities Republicans, too, including the President of two local College Republican clubs!

I now have to mention another conservative corrupted by the leftward trend of Tabakian's empty promises:

Joseph Lopez


Joseph Lopez.

He headed the Rebel Alliance at Los Angeles County Harbor College during his junior college days. He looked up to Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz as examples to follow. He had an impressive road ahead of him, and I submit that he still does.

But with hucksters like Tabakian, young people will find that they hear a lot of ear candy, but see little of substance to follow.

He recorded the above video, and notice how he turned the camera down and then shut it off as soon as I and others reacted negatively to their perverse behavior. He was probably not expecting someone to stand up to them and their shameful behavior.

But we did.

Lopez is now carrying water for this WestCal Academy experiment, working with La Raza, liberal Democrats who embrace corrupt ideas.

What a shame.

Other Millennials in the region are taking in the left-wing rhetoric on immigration and family issues, too, and drifting into "progressive" status, as if there are no consequences to our country, California, or our country.

This young man had promise and potential, too.

He was running for Congress, but bottomed out in fourth place! I even donated money to his campaign:


Christopher Castilo

Christopher Castillo

Yes, yes, he ran on a platform of "immigration reform." I did not agree with every proposal, yet I recognized his decision to run as a Republican in the 44th Congressional district as a welcome opportunity.

Then after his loss, I noticed his commiseration with left-leaning groups like the Log Cabin Republicans (a group whichi has in one of its planks a goal out of step with the entire party platform: homosexual marriage).

He also wanted to play nice with Democratic leaders like Jimmy Gow.

He  also refused to support the club and denounce the abusive tactics of Tabakian and Co.

Then he went all in with Tabakian's deceptions and this WestCal nonsense.

I say with some sorrow, how very disappointing all of this is.

Millennials need outreach, absolutely, and they need to know that they can--and should--play a large role in the Republican Party.

But any political party which wants to see American values, fiscal discipline, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness prosper cannot embrace abortion, homosexual marriage, open borders, gun control, and other left-wing regressive values.

The notion that caving on these issues will make the GOP brand stronger in our state is misguided at best, and immoral at worst.

Yet right now, this debilitating spirit of compromise is hurting our state, our country, and the next generation, and corrupters like Tabakian embrace this perversion and are taking up young people with this dissimulation.

This must cease, and it's time to fight for our shared Judeo-Christian values, and take courage to demonstrate to all ages, particularly young people, that life, marriage, family are not inimical but essential to individual liberty.

Final Reflection

One month after the failed stunt at the March2 016 Bach Cities Reublicans meeting, I confronted Tabakian, McDowell, and Lopez.

Tabakian tried to play the race card, and failed. He then tried to stop me from speaking when I called out the criminal behavior of enabling illegal aliens to work in political campaigns.

McDowell was next. I asked him why he could not speak to me about his concerns on key issues. He made excuses, claiming that he had argued for a more "progressive" approach for the club.

Not true.

He had only claimed that "Millennials are more progressive" at one meeting, to which I replied that not all young people are embracing such left-wing ideas, and that we should not abandon fighting for what is right.

Then I looked at Lopez. As I had mentioned before, he was the President of the Harbor College Rebel Alliance. I reminded him that he had invited me to speak to the club, and that I was the only white person in the room. How could I possibly be racist or extremist?

He had no nerve, no courage, but looked away and admitted: "I can't say anything."

He could not, because he was wrong for what he and the others had done to me and the club.

This encounter is instructive, pointing out how so many young people are looking for leadership, and now finding enough of it among conservatives. They still need a rigorous training to stand up for what is right, and it's time for all of us to lead by example and then encouragement.

And to expose the corruption and immorality of left-leaning opportunists like John Paul Tabakian.
