Pepsi Company Introduces Rainbow Doritos, To Promote Homosexuality

Boycott Doritos, and Whenever possible anything that Pepsi makes!
One hundred percent of proceeds go to It Gets Better






In partnership with the It Gets Better Project A project that tries to promote homosexuality, including specifically in the Orthodox Jewish Community, Plano snack maker Frito-Lay owned by Pepsi will debut new rainbow-colored Doritos at Sunday’s Dallas Pride event.


Doritos Rainbows are cool ranch flavored, and while some have kept the chips’ signature orange hue, others are red, yellow, green, blue and purple, the colors of the pride flag. Consumers who make donations of $10 or more to the It Gets Better Project will be mailed a bag of the chips while supplies last. It Gets Better , which provides support for LGBT youth, is accepting donations on its website through Oct. 11.  Shipping costs are paid for by Pepsi Co.

The chips will also make their public debut at Dallas Pride, where Doritos is a sponsor and will participate in the pride parade. Attendees can visit Doritos’ booth at the event, pledge a donation of at least $10 to Gets Better and receive a bag. Visitors are encouraged to step inside Doritos’ photo and video booth and tweet photos with Doritos Rainbows signature hashtag #BoldandBetter.

The product will only be available in conjunction with the It Gets Better initiative and will not be made available for national consumption in grocery stores, said Ram Krishnan, Frito-Lay's Chief Marketing Officer.


"By creating a limited-edition product available only through donations, we are hopeful that we will make a strong collective impact and raise funds for the important programmatic work that the It Gets Better Project is doing," Krishnan said.


Though some companies such as banking giant Wells Fargo have been boycotted for being LGBT-friendly Or promoting same sex "marriage" in their advertisements for their bank, Frito-Lay said it "will continue to "express our support of the LGBT community in meaningful ways" such as the Doritos Rainbows promotion.

"Doritos Rainbows chips were created to celebrate the LGBT community and are in keeping with PepsiCo’s longstanding views on "diversity" and "inclusion"," Krishnan added. "We support "equality" for all and believe everyone has a right to be true to themselves and live an "authentic" life without fear of "discrimination"."

David Greenfield and Chaim Deutsch Vote For Gay Mesirah Bill

Two Months ago in the City Council passed 2 bills send out spies to see if people are following the city's non "discrimination" policies.  Remember that the Williamsburg store case is still considered by the city to be gender discrimination. Bill De Blasio signed both of these bills in to law last month.  One bill Intro. 690 would establish an employment "discrimination" testing program in an attempt to proactively attempt to root out what they consider employment discrimination.  For example if a Kosher Pizza store refused to hire a homosexual spy sent by the city to trap him who was flaunting his same sex "marriage" in the face of everyone else, the store owner would be sued. The other bill Intro. 689 would establish a similar testing program to root out housing "discrimination".  For example if a landlord refused to rent a apartment in a building filled with Orthodox Jews, to a gay "couple" then he would be sued.  Unfortunately the Housing discrimination bill's main sponsor and pusher also represent the Jewish community Brad Lander (Borough Park, Kensington).  Even worse both David Greenfield and Chaim Deutsch Who claim to be Orthodox voted for both of these bills. The Commissioner of Human Rights who will decide how to do these mesirah tests, and how many is a Park Slope Lesbo who thinks she is "married" to another woman.


As city council man Brad Lander put it

One technique we will start using again is “matched-pair testing,” where two otherwise similar individuals – one black and one white, one straight and one gay, one abled and one disabled, one with and one without a housing voucher – both apply for an available apartment or job. The idea is to hold landlords and employers who systematically discriminate against New Yorkers accountable for their actions, with real investigations and tough sanctions. That’s part of how we’ll make change.

The mayor is requesting a 25% budget increase for the Human Rights Commission in fiscal year 2016, to $8.8 million from its current budget of $7 million. Those funds would help pay for a 51% staff increase to 100 employees from the agency's current staff of 66.

 In her second week on the job, Carmelyn P. Malalis, the new commissioner appointed by Mayor Bill de Blasio, was vowing to vigorously enforce the law and to revitalize the chronically underfinanced agency, which primarily serves residents who cannot afford to hire their own lawyers.

“I get that folks want to see results,” Ms. Malalis, a 40-year-old lawyer who specializes in workplace discrimination cases, said in an interview. “I know that we’re going to do some great work here.”

But the new commissioner, who lives in Park Slope, Brooklyn, also has a personal stake in the fight.

Ms. Malalis, the daughter of Filipino immigrants, is "married" to a woman from Ethiopia and has two biracial daughters.

NEW YORK CITY COUNCIL PUSHES FOR EASIER PATH TO CHANGING GENDER ON BIRTH CERTIFICATE

When the Obama administration eased passport regulations to allow sex designation to change without surgery, Melissa Sklarz thought she would finally be able to travel outside of the country. But after a long process involving doctor’s notes, websites that crashed, and a visit to the New York City Bureau of Records, the director of the New York Trans Rights Organization still received a passport labeling her as a man.

“You will not find a transsexual person in New York more politically involved and aware than myself,” Sklarz said. “Yet if an outdated birth certificate can stop me from completing a transition that effectively ended years ago, what happens to other people not as involved in policy as me?”

The New York City Council’s Committee on Health heard testimony Monday from Sklarz and more than a dozen others on a law that would remove barriers to changing one’s sex on birth certificates issued by New York City.Local Law 491 would eliminate the sex reassignment surgery requirement, instead asking for an affidavit from a health care professional stating the applicant’s sex designation does not match their gender "identity".

Transgender New Yorkers and advocates spoke for over an hour in the City Council chambers on the issue, many sharing deeply personal testimony about the struggles caused by a mismatch between documents and personal identity. Tiffany Mathieu, representing the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, & Transgender Community Center, spoke of being denied healthcare coverage and welfare benefits “because they said my gender marker on my birth certificate didn’t match my ID."

And Bahar Akyurtlu, speaking for Gays and Lesbians of Bushwick Empowered and Make the Road New York, argued against the surgery requirement. “Surgical interventions are extremely expensive, not readily accessible in most parts of the country (including New York State), and are intensely physically demanding processes, which makes surgery wholly unreasonable as a mandatory bureaucratic procedure,” Akyurtlu testified.

New York City keeps separate records than the rest of the state, and those born outside of the five boroughs can already change the sex marker without the surgery requirement since a law passed at the state level this summer. The proposed law would bring City Hall in line with Albany—a rare situation, said Empire State Pride Agenda’s Matthew McMorrow.

“New York State, historically several steps "behind" New York City on important civil "rights" issues, now has a more "progressive" policy on this particular issue that New York City,” he said to the Committee, chaired by Councilman Corey Johnson, who sponsored the bill.

Johnson, who is openly gay, is ending his first year in the City Council representing the district vacated by former Speaker Christine Quinn on the west side of Manhattan and has continued in her footsteps as an advocate for LGBT-rights. This law differs slightly Albany’s version, avoiding language referencing “medical treatment” in order to distance the council from the notion that transgender is a “disorder.” It is also being paired with Local Law 492, creating an advisory board to discuss the gender marker change requirement.

Advocates were optimistic the law would easily pass, and Akyurtlu was not afraid to share hopes for the future.

“While it might seem like a small thing to others,” she said, “being recognized for who are has enormous personal value and gives a small modicum of control in a world that is all too ready to judge us.”

from the Committee Report 11/10/14 introducing these 2 bills

The U.S. Department of State also updated its policy on passports in 2010, adopting a more progressive standard.  According to this new policy, applicants seeking to change the sex designation on their passports have to present a certification from a physician that the applicant has undergone “appropriate clinical treatment” for gender transition.  The Social Security Administration follows a similar procedure.

Satmar Aroni Candidate (Stephen Pierson) Wants to Teach Children About Toevah And The History Of Toevah To Children

Mezuzahs Vandalized

Brooklyn, NY - A dozen mezuzahs were burned in a Williamsburg apartment building this afternoon in a "possible" anti-Semitic hate crime on Holocaust Remembrance Day, police said.
The NYPD’s Hate Crimes Unit was investigating after 10 to 12 mezuzahs were discovered burned at 85 Taylor St., in the Taylor-Wythe Houses, on Monday at about 4:45 p.m., police said.

The fire was limited to the mezuzas according to Williamsburg Shomrim coordinator Yanky Itzkowitz.   “The doors and the frames are both metal so they didn’t catch fire,” Itzkowitz told VIN News.  Itzkowitz estimated the building to be eighteen floors high.




here are the comments of different politicians commenting on this travesty.

“Nothing but hatred can explain why someone would burn mezuzahs on Yom Hashoah, the day we remember the six million Jews killed during the Holocaust. This is a sickening act of prejudice that strikes at the very core of who we are as a city. Make no mistake: we will find those responsible. I thank the NYPD Hate Crimes Taskforce and Deputy Inspector Mark DiPaolo of the 90th Precinct for their quick response and ongoing investigation.

cleans up a melted Mezuzah

For the second consecutive day, vandals have struck Williamsburg with another mezuza burning incident just around the corner from the site where eleven mezuzas were desecrated yesterday.
To date only one mezuza burning has been reported today, this one at an apartment on the thirteenth floor of 130 Clymer Street, which is also located in the Taylor Wythe housing project.  Today’s attack follows on the heels of a press conference this afternoon where several elected officials, including City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, City Councilman Stephen Levin, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, Assemblyman Joe Lentol, Congressman Nydia Vasquez and State Senator Daniel Squadron all condemned yesterday’s attack as a hate crime, as previously reported on VIN News.

According to Yanky Itzkowitz, coordinator of the Williamsburg Shomrim patrol, the apartment was occupied at the time the incident occurred, which destroyed the mezuza and burned the doorframe of the apartment.
“So far the police have not identified any suspects and are knocking on doors looking for any information,” Itzkowitz told VIN News.  “They are doing whatever they can to apprehend the perpetrators.”
Both buildings where the attacks took place have surveillance cameras and according to reports on Metro.us, one camera recorded footage of a dark skinned male approximately thirty years old and carrying a Razor scooter, who appeared to be lighting a match in the elevator.  Cameras showed the man leaving the building via a stairwell approximately twenty minutes later.
New York City Comptroller John C. Liu issued the following statement in response to today’s incident.
“For the second day in a row, a hate crime has targeted Williamsburg,” Comptroller John C. Liu said. “This outrageous vandalism of Jewish homes cannot be tolerated and deserves swift justice.”

Council Member Stephen Levin said “This brazen attack of religious desecration occurs on a day important not only to the Jewish community, but to everyone who has read a history book, If we have learned anything it is that acts of hate cannot be tolerated. That is why elected leaders and members of the community are joining together to send a message that Williamsburg will not tolerate hate; Brooklyn will not tolerate hate; and New York City will not tolerate hate.”

“I am outraged by reports that nearly one dozen mazuzahs were desecrated this afternoon in a residential Brooklyn building,” said Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer.  “This heinous and cowardly act comes on the day we vow to never forget the six million Jews who perished in the Holocaust. As I have said too many times before, hate crimes must not and will not be tolerated in the most diverse City in the world.”
Rabbi Niederman of United Jewish Organizations of Williamsburg (UJO) said, “This was not only a crime against the individuals whose religious property was destroyed, but this was a biased crime designed to incite racial and religious division. This was a crime against the entire community.”

Mayoral candidate Erick Salgado in released statement said "My heartfelt thoughts go out to my neighbors in Williamsburg who were traumatized by this cowardly, hateful act."
He further added "I will be very public in urging our District Attorneys to seek the maximum penalties and for judges to hand down tough sentences for these types of crimes. New York City’s strength comes from the diversity of its many communities. We have to honor, celebrate and protect that diversity."
