Here, Queer, Dead

RELATED MATERIAL

Here, Queer, Dead Flag (High Res PDF)

Awkward acronyms notwithstanding, gay campaign groups OutRage! and IDAHO (International Day Against Homophobia), along with Michael Petrelis in San Francisco, have mobilized a global campaign and declared July 19, 2006 an International Day of Action Against Homophobic Persecution in Iran(IDAAHOPI). The campaign marks the first anniversary of Iran's brutal hanging of two gay teenagers, Mahmoud Asgari and Ayaz Marhoni.

Iran's CYBWTMACO (Can You Believe What These Motherfuckers Are Capable Of) treatment against its citizens mirrors the atrocites we perpetrate against the citizens of other countries in secret prisons run by the CIA (Christ, It's America!)
