Porterville City Council considers rescinding LGBT Pride month resolution

Porterville City Council, in California, received negative backlash back in 2009 after it passed a resolution publicly backing anti-gay Prop 8.

Porterville is back in the news again as some of the City Council members want to rescind an LGBT Pride proclamation made by the city's mayor, Virginia Gurrola.

According to ABC30, "several council members want the proclamation rescinded and a resolution be voted on instead, calling June a month of community charity and goodwill to all in Porterville."

On top of wanting June being "rescinded" as Gay Pride Month, they want July celebrated as "Heterosexual Month."  SRSLY.
