LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chornicles, San Francisco Bureau) – When Manny Pacquiao meets Timothy Bradley, Jr. for the third time on April 9 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, he will be met by a picket line by the homophobic hate group Westboro Baptist Church (WBC).

WBC is known for its rhetoric against homosexuals and has staged pickets at many high-profile events, including funerals, espousing its belief that “God hates fags.”

So, why are the WBC members picketing Pacquiao when he is on their side?

Just recently Pacquiao compared homosexuals to animals, claiming that human beings are worse than animals for engaging in same-sex behavior.

It appears that WBC is picketing for a different reason.  The church believes that the sport of boxing is “barbaric” and “animalistic” and goes against the teachings of God.

So, there.  Pacquiao will finally meet his match.  Not Bradley. WBC.

Manny Pacquiao Goes After The Animal Vote In Bid For Philippine Senate

imageMANILA, Philippines ( The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Seeking to improve on his current 8th place standing in the polls for the 2016 Philippine senatorial race, Filipino champion boxer Manny Pacquiao is shifting his campaign strategy by going after the animal vote.

In interview after interview this week, Pacquiao who claims to be a devout Catholic, said that animals are better off than human beings.

He made this comment in response to media questions on whether or not he favors same-sex marriage.

Speaking in Tagalog, Pacquiao said man was made for woman, and woman was made for man.  He said that no animal engages in sex with another of the same gender.

We did a little fact-checking about Pacquiao’s comments.

Animals DO display homosexual behaviour.  Here is a list of at least 12 of those animals, including giraffes, monkeys, flamingos, dolphins and snails.

So, sorry Mr. Pacquiao, you can go after the animal vote, but they, too, are in favor of same-sex marriage.

How The State Of Michigan Will Enforce Anti-Sodomy Law

Leave a comment

imageDETROIT, Michigan ( The Adobo Chronicles) – The Michigan Senate has passed a bill that effectively reaffirms the state’s unconstitutional law making sodomy a felony punishable by up to 15 years in prison.

Michigan is one of more than a dozen states that still have sodomy bans on the books, despite the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2003 ruling in Lawrence v. Texas declaring them unconstitutional.

Some states’ sodomy laws specifically target gay relations, but Michigan’s is among those that make oral and anal sex crimes illegal regardless of whether they’re same-sex or different-sex. Michigan is also one of several states with a sodomy ban that’s intertwined with a prohibition on bestiality – effectively equating the two. The law makes it a felony for anyone to commit “the abominable and detestable crime against nature with mankind or with any animal.” If the person is already a sex offender, violations are punishable by life in prison.

Since most sexual activity is done in private, both critics amd supporters of the new bill have questioned how it will be enforced.

But the smart Michigan legislators have apparently taken care of that by tucking a provision in the bill that would require home, apartment and hotel owners to install hidden  cameras in all bedrooms. The cameras will feed into a 24-hour central monitoring station that would be established and funded from taxpayer money.

As incentive, the bill authorizes that 100% of expenses by the state’s citizens to install the cameras will be tax-deductible.

However, failure to install the cameras within 6 months after the bill becomes law will result in fine or imprisonment, or both.

In the meantime, the state of Michigan is now accepting applications from individuals who will be employed as sodomy monitors. All are encouraged to apply, except registered sex offenders.
