Why so shy, haters?

The bigots attempting to get voters to support the upcoming anti-gay marriage amendment from a booth at the Minnesota State Fair over the weekend apparently know how idiotic they'll look in the history books. Acting like Alec Baldwin being trailed by paparazzi, the glamorous ladies working the "Yes on Hate" booth were not happy to show their faces to photographers.

Over the weekend at the Indiana State Fair a stage collapsed killing five people. One was Christina Santiago, who was the manager of programming for the Lesbian Community Care Project at Chicago's Howard Brown Health Center. Earlier media reports claimed that the family was in a battle with the state over the remains, but a statement from the family now says otherwise. Details after the jump.

A gay man literally stood up for his rights in Iowa today during a rally hosted by GOP presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty. Details and video, after the jump.
