Re: Newport Library issue with Gay Pride Spokane search

Thank you, Shar, however, the "call somebody else" routine is the run-around every gay man gets at the Newport Library. Nobody should have to ask permission to click a link from a Google search for GAY PRIDE SPOKANE.

Nobody should have to go to Admin, in a silent room, tell them they need GAY ACCESS.

Nobody should then have to wait for somebody to enter a password to bypass a CENSOR screen because they are GAY.

You know how a Google search is, if you look up GAY PRIDE, there might be a few dozen links you'd like to research. Wrong stuff? Well, too bad, the censor screen came up, you had to go ask permission, wait, they entered the password to bypass the censor screen, then you find-out it's the wrong info., so you click another link, another CENSOR block, go back to Admin ...

TIME'S UP -- you only get one hour.

We Gay people are CENSORED from PRIDE and GAY HISTORY at a Public Library in Newport, WA, and given the endless-run-around, call here, ask this, ask that, call somebody ELSE.

They sure 'sound reasonable' though. lol

It's discrimination. Period. Blatant. It's censorship. It's hate.

Please, before somebody gets so frustrated they go 'postal,' help me end the censorship, the discrimination, the hate.

Thank you, and kind regards, always,
Clayton Winton
