GAY PEOPLE'S CHRONICLE
Forty Whacks
by Lizzie Borden
To all my darling dears and queers, I am back with a new list of whacks.
LOOK INTO MY CRYSTAL BALL... and I'll tell you what I see: A place called vision with no equality. Seems there's a new singles' organization in Northeastern Ohio calling on perspective clients, and giving out free memberships. When the sales rep for this organization called upon a woman and asked her to join, the woman inquired if the
Investigation ordered
Cincinnati Gay & Lesbian March Activists (GLMA) has learned that, in the course of Sheriff Simon Leis' investigation of Steven O'Banion's beating at the hands of officers in the Hamilton County Justice Center, Leis never questioned O'Banion about the incident.
As reported last month, O'Banion was taken to the Hamilton County Justice Center after a scuffle with Cincinnati City police while he was allegedly jaywalking in downtown Cincinnati, September 3.
At the Justice Center, O'Banion, who has AIDS, was beaten, harassed for being gay and denied necessary AIDS medication. The officers then charged O'Banion with three counts of attempted murder and three counts of felonious assault, citing O'Banion's HIV-infected blood as the weapon.
Leis claimed three days later to have investigated the officers' role in the

disqualify you or effect you in any way in voting in the up-coming general elections. A citizen at any time may execute the afore-mentioned form to vote in any Democratic or Republican primary and then vote for whomever he or she wishes in the general election notwithstanding that candidate's party affiliation.
Edward Graham is the Pro-life, Pro-Christianity, Pro-Morality candidate in this election. He has taken stands against pornography, obscenity and abortion in our community. No other experienced candidate can boast that affirmation. Enclosed is some literature from Ed's campaign showing his numerous accomplishments. Also enclosed is additional literature showing his opponents, JoAnn Boscia and John Gallagher, being endorsed by the Gay Liberation Movement, specifically, and the Chronicle. As you will note in the Chronicle endorsement, both JoAnn Boscia and John Gallagher are Pro-Choice. In my interpretation that means only one thing--Pro-Abortion. Also, a
November, 1991
organization was for gays and lesbians. The rep told the woman that she no longer qualified and insulted her, and then hung up.
Later that same week, the same woman received another call, this one from a gentleman apologizing for what had occurred and then said they were also putting in a reference library for gay and lesbian singles and wanted contacts to call. Poor marketing. That'll cost you some split ends! Whack!
BLINKY DON'T DO DAT!
The Akron Beacon Journal printed a story about Blinky the clown being charged for
incident and found their conduct satisfactory.
GLMA has documented anti-gay statements and actions by Leis. GLMA along with Stonewall Cincinnati and the Greater Cincinnati Gay and Lesbian Coalition is calling him unfit to conduct an adequate investigation into O'Banion's
treatment.
GLMA's demands that there be an outside investigation and that Leis resign.
O'Banion says that at no time between his beating by officers and Leis' announcement of the investigated was he ever questioned by Leis or a representative of Leis.
On October 2, GLMA members resolved unanimously to take further public action in response to the O'Banion case. Should GLMA's demand for an outside investigation and Leis' resignation not be met satisfactorily, and should the Hamilton County Grand Jury indict O'Banion, GLMA plans a demonstration at the County Courthouse.
copy of a Plain Dealer article is enclosed showing JoAnn Boscia's support primarily by politicians, as opposed to Ed Graham's grassroots fundraising.
As all concerned citizens of Lakewood realize, the impending election is of utmost importance. The Board of Trustees of Lakewood Hospital has the power to authorize the commission of abortion in our blessed city. The elected mayor of Lakewood greatly influences such decisions and appoints members to the Hospital's Board of Trustees. Ed Graham is an experienced, compassionate, Pro-Life candidate who we must all support.
Please pray for Ed Graham and the City of Lakewood when you recieve this correspondence and make the commitment to vote in the Democratic primary for Ed Graham for Mayor, regardless of your party affiliation. A vote for Ed Graham will help all of us in our long and arduous task against evil and in support of the Judaic-Christian principles which we all believe in, the same priniciples out country was founded on and must return to in order to enable us to bask in the glory of God's blessings.▼
publicly jacking off and grabbing the crotch of a cop in Spangler Park near Wooster. He was later found innocent.
However, a Medina disc jockey, Dancin' Danny Wright from WQMX, decided to publicly humiliate Blinky, by telling the mommies and daddies in radio land that Blinky may not be the best clown for their child's birthday party.
When Blinky called to straighten the matter out with Dancin' Danny, Wright told him that the story was a matter of public record and called him a dumb fuck. Blinky stunned told Wright to read the story again all the way through. When Wright finished he saw the wrong but didn't make it right. So two WRIGHTS readings still did not make it right. It's still wrong what happened unjustly to Blinky.!
CALLING FOR STUD STALLIONS BUT NO BITCH MARES!!!!!
Controversy continues for suds for studs but no milk for mares. If we can pee in the same stall, why not socialize and drink in the same corral. Lizzie brands this one with 40 lashes and 41 whacks.
WHO'S KISSING WHOM!
For all the Browns fans that saw our fabulous Bernie smooching Mr. Langhorne during a recent game, keep an eye out for

Hey look, Bern, I don't care who you kiss, lets just win each game. We can go on to the playoffs, then to the Super Bowl.
Lizzie does however have some whacks of wisdom for those damn refs who can't see the ball in front of them. Get some glasses boys, and start watching the forward process of the ball instead of the players behinds. WOOF, WOOF, WOOF, GO BROWNS!!!!!
ASKING FOR TROUBLE!!
Granted, tis the season for tricks or treats, but WMJI's tricks are getting a little out of hand. Seem's one of my sisters was trying to get radio time for her company. When WMJI's accounting executive Gina contacted my friend to sell her air time, the conversation got into the whacking on the morning drive. Dear old Gina had the audacity to say that WMJI traced the calls from concerned citizens and all the calls came from the same number!
Well, Drew, hope that all the rest of the community is leaving you a quarter after they make the calls from your line.
Gina, get a real, and better, line. SMACK!!!
Lastly, I'm always on the lookout for a good scoop to slash, give me a call here at the Chronicle, or drop me a line at the same. Until next time my little pets ta, ta ... .▼
