Women Against Sarah Palin
September 16, 2008
Watch the clip:
This could very well be the first time in Lindsay Lohan’s career that I have fully applauded the woman. After reading her latest blog post I am giving her the thumbs up. She has publicly slammed Sarah Palin in her MySpace blog for opposing gay rights and not being a woman of this time.
To read Lindsay’s blog and see what she had to say, click here, all I can say is I now love this chick:
http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=29730276&blogID=432883808
This comes just days after Pamela Anderson told us that she can’t stand Sarah Palin and that she can suck it and we can quote her on that. And quote her everyone has…
Pamela Anderson is actually one of the nicest people on the planet, and is a huge animal rights activist. She isn’t particularly thrilled to see Sarah Palin hanging out of helicopters shooting animals down so she can lounge on them in her house.
These women weren’t the only one publicly slamming the Vice President wanna-be, even the singer Pink jumped onto the train when asked about Sarah. She’s got some choice words for a certain vice presidential candidate.
“If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin,” Pink said at a taping, “it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map …”
What scares Pink are women who consider the Alaska governor’s selection a feminist victory. “This woman hates women,” the singer said. “She is not a feminist. She is not the woman that’s going to come behind Hillary Clinton and do anything that Hillary Clinton would’ve been capable of … I can’t imagine overturning Roe vs. Wade. She’s not of this time. The woman terrifies me.”
Pink, also an animal rights activist, suggests creatures other than humans should be just as scared of Palin: “I can’t imagine shooting a wolf out of a helicopter.”
Women aren’t the only ones, I’m gonna throw in Matt Damon who got the ball rolling to begin with.
Now all we need is Britney Spears, but she’s too busy putting up the finishing touches are next album due out in December this year titled, “Circus”. Maybe the title is her way of telling us what we’ve all become.
….and me, what does author, Kevin Hunter think about Sarah Palin? I can’t stand her either, she can suck it. She’s against domestic partner benefits and against hate crime laws, the more we find out about her history the more frightening her history becomes.
Dear Kevin,
I wanted you to be one of the first to know: on Saturday, I will hold an event in Washington D.C. to thank everyone who has supported my campaign. Over the course of the last 16 months, I have been privileged and touched to witness the incredible dedication and sacrifice of so many people working for our campaign. Every minute you put into helping us win, every dollar you gave to keep up the fight meant more to me than I can ever possibly tell you.
On Saturday, I will extend my congratulations to Senator Obama and my support for his candidacy. This has been a long and hard-fought campaign, but as I have always said, my differences with Senator Obama are small compared to the differences we have with Senator McCain and the Republicans.
I have said throughout the campaign that I would strongly support Senator Obama if he were the Democratic Party’s nominee, and I intend to deliver on that promise.
When I decided to run for president, I knew exactly why I was getting into this race: to work hard every day for the millions of Americans who need a voice in the White House.
I made you — and everyone who supported me — a promise: to stand up for our shared values and to never back down. I’m going to keep that promise today, tomorrow, and for the rest of my life.
I will be speaking on Saturday about how together we can rally the party behind Senator Obama. The stakes are too high and the task before us too important to do otherwise.
I know as I continue my lifelong work for a stronger America and a better world, I will turn to you for the support, the strength, and the commitment that you have shown me in the past 16 months. And I will always keep faith with the issues and causes that are important to you.
In the past few days, you have shown that support once again with hundreds of thousands of messages to the campaign, and again, I am touched by your thoughtfulness and kindness.
I can never possibly express my gratitude, so let me say simply, thank you.
Sincerely,
Hillary Rodham Clinton

My stories can be on the extremist side and most of the publishing industry that publishes and markets LGBT material either is against or fears that sort of thing. It’s unfortunate because my voice is my own and I exist, and the things I write about are real, the things I face are real, but businesses are afraid of taking chances with artists that have their own agenda and their own way of doing things. In this world, you’re not allowed to do that, you have to do as your told, or at least do as your told if you want to get ahead.
I’m not in this for glory or recognition or approval. I don’t care, of course, one needs to survive on doing what they love, but at the same time, I’ll continue doing what I love regardless of what others might or might not think.

INTRODUCTION – Jagger’s Revolution: A Screenplay
March 2, 2008
INTRODUCTION
to
Jagger’s Revolution: A Screenplay
“You’re my own little mighty mouse.” He said to me this year. If you remove a gene in the brain, you’ll find someone who isn’t troubled or afraid of anything. Fear exists because of years of human tampering. It’s a learned response triggered by previous circumstances forcibly molded upon us while growing up. You have to have an enormous amount of strength and independent will to break yourself away from that and be your own opinion. It takes years of practice to be as tough and removed from the societal norm. The compliment was an interesting true insight, although the flattering remark was simply to convey what I meant to him on a personal level, and not into the man holding the pen drawing out a story of a napoleon like creature who moved to the forefront carrying his own flag. The declaration is a for certain fact that sums up the dark shadow in the back of my mind that quietly came up into view raising up his hand to ask me if I’ve met him yet. It was years ago that this revelation came to me into the guy who I later called Jagger. His brooding soul was as dark and sinister in spirit that I nearly shuttered. The more I grew to know him I realized what a knowledgeable force he is. It wasn’t enough for me to write a book with a slew of sex columns on his interpretation of modern day love. Jagger’s view of dating is highly conservative, but he as a guy is not. He walks along that fine line of truth and fantasy on a beach in Southern California. He is mostly always barefoot because not only is he a super human hero, but the torn jeans show a non-conformist element, his bare feet give you the forbearance of someone who is very physical. He doesn’t have to say anything but just stand in frame, and his huge dark eyes understand more than what the average person sees.
I’ve always felt an obligation to my friends, even when worn out. I still feel this responsibility. Friendship and having integrity is very important to me more than anything is, and it’s vital before any relationship can take off. That’s where this friendship dynamic center with the protagonist and his posse come from. The majority of my friends are guys and we don’t edit ourselves around each other. It’s complete unbending family. This force with my leading man and his friends is me subconsciously paying homage to what I thrive for in the real world. Families come in many forms, not just blood.
I had to tell a story where a guy has to go through HELL to find love. He thinks he’s going to find his one true soul mate on every date he goes on. His romantic view is deluded and a lie. People in general have this disturbed affiliation with finding romance, they have these high expectations about how it should be, and are constantly let down, and the reason they’re let down is that it doesn’t exist. Love is what one needs to thrive for with one person, and it’s a struggle, a dance built over time.
Jagger ends up going out with people where the only connections are superficial fleeting moments. He objectifies himself by going through with it. Unintentionally, he’s objectifying back. He’s attracting what he deserves. He has to do the soul work before he can have life’s riches.
Being in love and having a crush in High School is a circumstance where nothing can come remotely close ever again. The feeling is to the intensity of indescribability. As long as one lives, you’re always going back to that moment with the soundtrack and the birds in your way over some guy who had no idea what he meant to you. Your interaction with him was always minimal to none. You turn the corner fast to run smack into him dropping your shit all over the sidewalk. He looks deeply into your eyes while you both lean down together to pick the stuff up both never breaking that eye soul connection. Hardly any words spoken except a hello and thank you. He collects all your stuff while digging around into your soul and then handing it all to you with a smile. You both walk away from each other in different directions. You turn around to look back as if your constant brief encounters with him were fated and it was trying to tell you something, but then you shrug it off because you know just the thought of entertaining it can deceive you into thinking you actually have a shot. What you never knew was that after your mind presented the idea to you, and you went on your way, the guy was turning to study you in awe for a split second.
Jagger lives minutes and blocks from the beach, and his version of this guy is in his face mostly every time he’s on the sand. The ripped guy wears lifeguard shorts and drives one hell of a yellow truck with the red symbol on it, because he likes to help people, and this smile stretches out across his face when he sees his little columnist in view. Why can’t Jagger see that smile? The universe works to put this bloke, Garth, in his path and Jagger feels an unexplainable soul connection to him. It taunts him in the face. It harks back to those careless days of adolescence when everything was starry eyed and intense right back when you were in High School.
The book, “Jagger’s Revolution” is much more layered and detailed in story and over analyzed to the point of hair splitting, but it’s a character study, and doing an attempt to adapt it into a screenplay to see how it reads one has to focus on one slice while keeping the same theme present. I love character and my goal was to try to look at the piece from an actor’s perspective, the way they look at a role. It’s easy to dismiss Jagger as an asshole, but it’s important to see him as humanistic as you should with any character, there’s a history in the holes, in the map, in what’s not said, as a creative thinker as an artist you have to dive below the surface. Most of the time you have to on a daily basis, but most people don’t want to, can’t or don’t realize they need to. He’s flawed and has issues, he has a severe wall up and it puts people off who want to approach him, and all of that came from somewhere. Underneath he’s a good guy, just misunderstood, angry, frustrated, and in a storybook way, metaphorically love’s kiss can release him from the shaped prison built around him over the years. As the story unravels, so does he, all while this silent link to this hunk guy continues to progress. Jagger is the dark, the moon, while Garth is the light, the sun. In another symbolic sense, a moon can’t function without the sun. The moon is cold and distant without the light of day.
He has a family of friends that surround him, Troy is the heart, the conscience, Russell is the logic, the reason, and Slade is the fun guy, the optimism, the pal while the love interest Garth is the gold coin. The eroticism that Jagger has for Garth isn’t graphic or dirty, but rather poetic. It’s a lengthy ride to present an erotic moment. Some elements of this material are explicit, offensive and may not vibe well. I have to make a proclamation that Jagger’s beliefs or the stories beliefs are not to be confused with my personal view, but rather one gentleman’s fictional point of view.
This is the screenplay version of my book, “Jagger’s Revolution” which as I’ve so redundantly said is understandably longwinded and lengthy as opposed to what you’re about to read here. If this screenplay has the opportunity to move into the language of film, then a collaborative group of talented and creative people will take what I started and turn it into something better, or choose to dismiss it all together. In the meantime, here’s something I started…
Kevin Hunter.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Jagger’s Revolution: A Screenplay
NOW AVAILABLE AS A PAPERBACK!
Jagger isn’t your typical sex columnist. He is an aristocratic beach thug who rules by his scrupulous idea of how life should be. He equates dating with going to battle while on his hunt for the real thing in a city that is plagued of any honest human connection. He’s strikingly attractive, but also a menace, with an uncompromising disapproval for weakness and bad etiquette. His engaging friends compliment his aggressive nature by tempering his inflexible fight on mankind to gain insight into their intolerable behavior. He finds exhaustion with going on yet another dating excursion when he knows the guy for him is the one he can’t say more than two words to. If there is any light to all his darkness, it’s the pleasing love story, the central theme that runs throughout his disappointments in matters of the heart. He experiences the kind of crush and love one has as a teenager over Garth, the dreamboat lifeguard from Australia, with the boyish distinction and the killer smile, who he keeps running into in passing. He feels an immediate unexplainable silent connection with him and longs to get close. This is the screenplay adaptation of the book “Jagger’s Revolution” for lovers of film, plays and positive gay oriented material.

Kevin Hunter On the Development of Jagger’s Revolution
February 28, 2008
BEHIND THE SCENES
AUTHOR’S NOTES
On the Character Development and Construction of Jagger’s Revolution
It began as a sense impression, a feeling a couple summers ago, it was a revelation. I knew the points I wanted to convey, and I hoped to say more by saying less. I wanted to come up with characters that meant something to me, people that I could relate to and understand. I come from the film world having read and evaluated scripts and stories then worked in film production and back to the creative side of the business again. I started at a film company for an actress/producer that was heavily into finding strong character driven pieces. It was a new beginning in my life and a proper match up being there because as much as I love story I love dissecting character and developing rich characters that are detailed and multi-layered and go through conflict to get to a good place.
Issues that deal with love, relationships, families, friendships, those are all big topics that have always resonated strongly with me. Because I’ve been versed with the film language, when I write or tell a story my mind is playing it as a movie, scene by scene, the character standing on a set with me watching and guiding them, sometimes it’s my face in their face.
The original idea that first hit me was the “journey to love”. My favorite part of a love story is the excursion one is on before they get together with their love interest. That’s the beauty and the most realistic passage to honest love. The rough road you have to go down before you reach the real thing. Although this is a good start, it is also vague. Character is the next thing that came in, who is my lead, who is my protagonist? What kind of person is he? What does he go through? And Jagger was born…. In Hermosa Beach, Jagger lives a beach life ruled by his scrupulous idea of how dating and relationships should be and his aggressive disapproval of weakness and bad etiquette. He works as a gritty sex columnist but doesn’t fit the mold of a columnist or therapist. He walks around very bohemian, barefoot and jeans or surf shorts. His stance is of a rebel. He’s an anarchist and carries an invisible sword. He’s highly intelligent and has an air of beauty. His beauty is not that of a carved out model, but his appearance is well taken care of, he is a regular guy, cute, the guy next door. My choice to have the characters not that bad on the eyes isn’t to continue with the stereotype that all male fiction and bad Hollywood shows are polluted with models, but merely because you go to Hermosa and everyone is good looking, even the not so great looking are hot or distinguished. It’s not far off from the world I live in and understand and see. They may be that way, but their also flawed in many other ways, as we all are. There is no such thing as perfection in people, that’s what makes us so great.I was starving to create and have characters that functioned in the physical world and not on a computer. I needed my lead to be so severely strong and wise almost like a ruler of a country, but stuck on a beach instead. Their just isn’t anything that the guy is afraid of. He’ll take on the army. He’s like a comic book hero, but he walks that fine line of being villainous. He’s larger than life. Jagger was a seed that began forming in me many years ago. The more he grew and developed the more he took on a life of his own. He split off from my consciousness when he was ready and began to act on his own. He was born and I was happy for him to take over and let me sit back. What I learned was he was always there to begin with, but appeared very rarely. I went to a rough and dark place to find him, once I was in that place and had discovered him my goal was to hold onto that guy, keep him alive and consistent. I had to stay there, and that was his character. It didn’t take much for me to tap into him after that, once I understood who he was and where he was. He lives inside of me. We all have sides to us and some are more aware of them than others. There are those that can access them with little effort, the way an actor can. I had to be able to switch off the daily grind and go into him when it was necessary, and maintain it. The other sub-characters fragmented out of him, and through him I knew them. When some think of a revolutionist they think of it as something negative. They think of someone who is so removed and merciless to social conformity. I look at revolutionists as something positive. I think of them as strong and independent, and not afraid of anything or anyone. I don’t see anything negative about wanting the world to be a better place or people to take responsibility for their actions and themselves and what they do to other people. To ask someone to have a grain of compassion is not an unworthy request. I worried some might find Jagger to be a little bit of a perilous guy and that he might not work as a central character, and no one would relate to him. On the one hand I didn’t care. I’m most comfortable with him. Still I wanted to at least breathe a little bit of likeability in him try and show why he’s not that bad. Because let’s face it there were times when I wasn’t so sure about him, he can be quite the punk, a bit of a brat. Those moments when I had doubts were the moments when his strength was so powerful that I could no longer guide him. I knew then to just let him run loose, because that’s who he is and if he’s got the control then everything will work out and things will be more protected with him than with me.It still wasn’t enough, I have a lead character-protagonist, but what am I going to do with him? Instead of just allowing him to be the all-knowing into the human condition, and having a finely tuned up observational bullshit detector, he needed a team to bounce stuff off of. He’s a general he needs soldiers.
His friends started to develop afterwards through imagined sequences, one by one, Slade, Troy and Russell, three very different guys at very different ages and stages in their own lives who give him what he needs and to balance his offbeat and sometimes rough nature. They’re all from near and around L.A., arriving on the beach, and initially they appear to be people who would conflict with him. Sometimes taking the time to get to know someone you find the common ground you both have. The sub characters mean a great deal to me as well, as they’re all composites of people I know. Although they forgive me for any human errors I could make with the translation, I, on the other hand am less lenient, but in the end I think I treated them all like kings.
How different or the same could Jagger be to Slade, a carved out hunk sex addict who walks around very showy of himself, walking through scenes with his shirt off, he is self-important and arrogant, but has a strange an immense allegiance to Jagger out of respect. And despite his conceited nature he feels strongly for the well being of his friend. What about Troy? I wanted to show that Jagger isn’t just a beast he does have heroic and caring qualities by taking in a young guy who is detested by his parents and has nowhere to go. He gives him the steel to strive and succeed, kicks him down a notch when Troy falls for the environment around him in L.A. Or how about a guy who drives hot expensive cars, wears designer suits, drops money around like it’s not worth anything, gets into the VIP rooms of places and lives a life of luxury like Russell who totally and completely gets him. Having them around softened him and gave him that unbending family. Through their initial superficial habits I learned they’re not all that bad, their loyalty and inflexible devotion to each other on a friend level makes them all highly noble people. They have a genuine respect for each other. There was more tampering going on from my end to drag the poor soldier through the dirt when I could. I throw him into work that is writing about relationships, and I put the guy through bad encounters and gave him sexual contacts on his long and hopeful search for just one person. He does have a conscious and a heart within his stone armor and the goal was to reveal that throughout. People have gone out on dates with others or had mini-relationships with people who are just not suitable for them. There is nothing that remotely attractive about the people they date whether it be exterior or interior and we don’t see that right away. The people are not creditable and we wonder why it never works out, but that’s just more fuel for Jagger to keep going. He has strength of force and compassion, a combined feature that is rare in many people. But his strength and his fighter quality are menacing and intimidating. When he walks in a room it’s as if he owns the room and everything in it. To appear that sure of yourself can be daunting to others who don’t know you. When another guy is clearly less than worthy for him and they don’t follow through or drop the ball, he gets violent and exacts revenge. Although we would love to get vengeance on those that stomp on us we rarely if ever act it out. It’s not an acceptable mode of behavior. In that respect one can conclude that he can be a bit unstable, but he’s not a bad person, just misunderstood.
Everyone has elements of instability when the boat is rocked, but his rage is on the severe unapproachable side. Every single person he displayed an attack on deserved it and had it coming. He never deliberately hurts anyone where it wasn’t earned, and that doesn’t make it okay, but it does make him intolerant to bad protocol. You don’t know what it is he’s capable of or how far he’ll go or how much damage he can cause to someone, but at the same time when he turns it around he can also shower the most incredible love imaginable.
The world around him sometimes makes him feel insecure and this is what gives him those rare moments of vulnerability when people are behaving in ways that he just doesn’t get, he doesn’t understand, it’s not his language. This is what brought me to think of him almost as if he were an angel that was sent down from the heavens to advocate to his peers that this is unacceptable, because he doesn’t know any other way, he can’t fathom that people can let you down. It’s human nature. There is this remarkable connection that isn’t verbalized that he’s been placed down from a higher source, but his quest is to find love for himself, and these mortals don’t come close, except one… What sort of being could shoot cupid arrows into his heart? He puts himself at risk and softens up when it comes to his infatuation and obsession over Garth, the hot lifeguard he continuously drools over. Garth is an angel. He looks like a sensible, fine-looking archangel. He is an existing person, not a manufacture, but appears to him out of the haze as some kind of salvation to him. Garth is newly planted at the beach from the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. Who better to counter Jagger than him? I’ve known for years that the love interest was going to be an Aussie. I’ve always had a love for the country. It’s so far, far away from L.A. and exotic and nothing like any place I’ve imagined. I’ve always had a fascination and love for Australian people in general. Their culture and way of life is far more attractive and comparable to me than anywhere else. They’re tough, bold, fun loving and beautiful, and if anyone can rise to the challenge of a guy like Jagger and not fear him, but in turn be drawn and attracted to him, it would be someone from a place like that. They’re obligation to each other, their fellow man, and their custom ways and propriety is a smooth symmetry with Jagger. Garth embodies those qualities, he’s also a dreamboat, smooth and sexy, and he is sun kept, but he’s ironically not a snob, which makes him even doubly attractive. That’s when you’ve hit that unable to breathe state, that someone could be so apparently and innately good, it seems impossible and yet it’s close to that perfection in a guy that Jagger seeks, very few measure up.Garth has just as much toughness as Jagger, if not more, his is just focused in a less than hostile direction. And why couldn’t Garth be suited for him? The guy releases him and relaxes him in ways that he doesn’t understand just by being present. We all want that love, that one person who can just sit next to us and we feel exhilaration. And why couldn’t Garth be deserving of Jagger? There is a synastry between them that is uniquely natural. They’re enormously in tuned to each other, but unaware that the other is in synch with them at the same heightened rate. It’s as if at one point in a past life or in mythology they had to fight one another, then when neither could win they teamed up to fight evil together. Jagger is very hip to the psyche in people, and wants love and has a mountain of it built up to give to the right person. Garth is as close as he is ever going to get.There is so much going on with this character, he is multilayered and complex and his situations attempt to break him, but he keeps going. Out of the basic structure idea, the rest of the story developed out of that, began to take shape over months and months. It built up inside me to the point of mental overload and the dam broke and the water busted out of the walls and onto the pages.Love never comes easily. It comes to you when you least expect it and when cupid feels you’re ready. Jagger’s longing affection for Garth has to be earned and then he becomes worthy of someone great. He has the same careless nature as the others, and appears to have come into this world from the beach and the sands, but his head is above them all, like a private joke he keeps to himself, but is still functional with people in the city. His intoxication with Garth is the same feeling you got when you were fifteen or sixteen and you had that crush on the guy or that girl in school that pierced your heart in pain because you wanted them so bad. You didn’t know how to get them, or felt that you could get them or even deserved them. They were on a pedestal out of reach and you felt weak around them. Your love intensity can be so severe at that age, but it can also be magical and it can feel unbelievably chivalrous. It’s a feeling that is lost by many when they get older after all the bad dates, relationships and bad times struggles that harden you. It’s gone, but what if we could have it again? Why not start over? Why not get rid of all the negative toxins that have been built in you causing resentment and causing you to just give up on it, and start with a fresh mind, a clean slate and go back to that moment when you were a teen and you felt deep lust and love for one person.
Love is my favorite word in the dictionary. Love is something most everyone wants if you have any sense. If there is no love, there is nothing. Love wakes you up. It breathes life into you. It challenges you and gives you new meaning and changes you. Love is more than just falling in love. It can be helping someone who needs it. All of that and more is his revolution it is his quest, his fight, his transformation. He wants that perfect world. He wants people to change and do the right thing. His revolution is he could overthrow an entire system if that were his fight. For him the system is to be good to your fellow man. Promote tolerance in all circles. Love your neighbor. His heart is always in the right place. His frustrations are evident, but he always pulls through.

There is no way he could be in his twenties. You don’t begin to truly have a grasp on things until you enter your thirties, and you don’t realize this until you enter your thirties. This is only if you’ve evolved as a human being and experienced life, and that’s also about the moment where you no longer start to give a shit. Your quest and your life understanding is greater than the pettiness you experienced in your twenties. I’ve had to endure a lot growing up and into my twenties. Eventually it evaporated, not that I don’t run into insignificance anymore. I don’t pay attention to it, my focus and my quest is much greater than that, and it’s easy to tune it out, and keep going on the path of what I believe in. The radical in me has always been there. I’m an easy target because of that, and my values, because I don’t follow the crowd. I refuse to join in and do the accepted thing and because I can function perfectly well alone. You’re always going to come into contact with pests when you burst onto things with confidence, but I pay no mind and keep doing what I love most. Imagine if we all followed that mantra what great things could be accomplished.

Kevin Hunter ON THE USE OF GOD
February 28, 2008
I grew up going to church regularly and I rather liked going. I was taught to pray every day and have private conversations to God or a higher source, went to Sunday school. It was all very positive to me. I don’t have any negative memories with it. I didn’t notice any of the hatred that is coming out of the church and religious people today. Now that’s right wing mayhem. My use of God is simply because he’s my God too and you don’t get to tell me what God says about such and such, or about the unconstructive hate that they believe God has. I don’t know any God that hates, so I have no idea who or what they’re talking about. They’re dangerous fanatics with a harmful agenda towards mankind. Luckily, it’s not something I focus on, I’m too removed from it, there’s nothing to learn from people like that. It’s a difficult thing to educate people who don’t want to be educated. They won’t budge from their beliefs.
