No More Slick Rick On 12th?

Yesterday, pro-gay and anti-Rick Santorum activists were planning a protest out front of 12th Street Gym, the in-the-heart-of-the-Gayborhood, gay-friendly workout mecca. The protest was due to part-owner and Evening Bulletin backer Bob Guzzardi’s support for (and $4,000 of donations to) U.S. Senator Rick Santorum, who’s opposed to gay marriage and the right to gay sex, &c.

Over the weekend, though, Guzzardi sold his shares to gym co-owner Rick Piper, and the rally went on as planned, but it was more of just a general anti-Santorum protest and victory rally. I suppost that’s fine, although Guzzardi still supports Santorum — he says it’s due to the senator’s support for Israel — he just doesn’t own that gym anymore. But, eh. Hurrah, hurrah.

Metro had a photo of a protester outside the gym, which I’ve reproduced part of below:

Well, sure, Rick Santorum. But that other santorum? Uhm, the area around 12th Street might be santorum headquarters.

    Talk about going overboard. So teh guy gave some money to Santorum because he likes his pro-Israel beliefs. Sheesh.
