TODAY IS NATIONAL HIV TESTING DAY!!!!! There are free testing sites all over the country today, so please take advantage and go get tested. Take a friend, take your partner. And as I always offer, if you don’t know where to go to get tested, feel free to reach out to me and I’ll find out for you. It’s worth it to know your status!!!! #hiv #gettested #safesex #knowyourstatus #jaalico #hivtesting #nhtd

Still feeling confused, sad and upset over Orlando? This nation is suffering a deeply complex cultural affliction. These shootings will not stop, and the primary tool we have to fight this problem is by tightening up our gun laws. Turn your emotion into action and help turn up the decibel level against the NRA and our lawmakers to make legislative CHANGE now.

https://www.facebook.com/GaysAgainstGunsNYC/

Our mission:

Gays against guns’ (AKA GAG) mission is to not allow the murder of our 49 siblings to be in vain. Although founded by gays, this group is open to anyone who’s concerned about gun violence. Our goal is to call for an IMMEDIATE ban on all high capacity magazines. There is no reason for these weapons to be in the hands of civilians. Our second goal is to call for stricter background checks; close the loophole that allows gun shows to sell guns without background checks, ban sales of all guns off of the Internet, and block anyone on the FBI watchlist from purchasing and possessing guns. NRA : we see the blood on your hands. We are coming for you. We will make these changes. And we will make you GAG on it!
