Miller Lite-approved: Toddlers at the Folsom Street Fair
Update: A call from B. Daniel Blatt for gay leaders to demand that Folsom Street Fair prevent children from attending.
***
It’s not just 17-year-olds who were welcome at the Folsom Street Fair leather/bondage orgy.
Check out the photos of two-year-old twin toddlers in attendance at the 2005 fair. (Hat tip - LGF commenters)
Look. At. The. Children’s. Clothes.
One is wearing a leather-studded harness. Via the Xpress Online:
The caption on the photo reads:
“Veronica Kruschel, 2, drinks water while her twin sister Zola enjoys the Folsom Street Fair environment. Their parents Gary Beuschel and John Kruse (not photographed) watch nearby while having a lunch break.”
More from the accompanying article:
Two-year-olds Zola and Veronica Kruschel waddled through Folsom Street Fair amidst strangers in fishnets and leather crotch pouches, semi and fully nude men.
The twin girls who were also dressed for the event wore identical lace blouses, floral bonnets and black leather collars purchased from a pet store.
Fathers Gary Beuschel and John Kruse watched over them closely. They were proud to show the twins off.
“They will see more than the kids with moms and dads in Iowa,” said Beuschel, who wanted to expose his children to San Francisco�s diverse community. “Every parent has to decide for themselves what is right for them. And I respect that. And we decided that this is right for our children.”
Beuschel and his girls were at the 22nd Folsom Street Fair, an annual leather event in San Francisco�s South of Market district, which showcased outrageous costumes, fetish attire, and a community obsessed with bondage, whipping, and spanking.
For crying out loud:
“Why do (these people) bring kids here? This is a leather fair for god’s sake,” said Bahran Aliassa, who was masturbating in public. He has been doing it annually for the past six years.
Oakland resident Veronica Charles, 36, was with a baby stroller and said her son was too young to understand. “I don’t think I’ll bring him here when he is 6,” Charles said.

Zombie was there at this year’s fair.
Just in case you needed not-safe-for-work reminders of what these toddlers were exposed to, watch here.

Those poor children. Family values, Democrat style.
Miller Lite needs to be boycotted.
If God ever gives America an enema it will be through San Francisco.
Oh. My. Goodness.
How horrible to subject these children to this depravity. They should be playing with dolls or stuffed animals, not leather-studded clothing.
Some people just SHOULD NOT be parents. Period.
I’m almost glad I’m at work and can’t look at the nastiness…that pic above is bad enough.
Studded leather chokers and baby bottles just don’t mix in my book, no matter HOW old you are…….
Disgusting. Despicable.
I’m sickened by this whole thing.
Amen, Englishqueen. I have my doubts about them having the maturity/responsibility to own pets. Just too sad.
Gavin’s letter to attendents (in the program) was addressed to “Families”…
Grrreeeeaaatttt.
(PS. those parents should have child protective services over their house immediately).
It’s a freak show. Oh, boy, let’s bring the kids!
So help me . . . Not like I would ever go to that sleaze fest. But if I were there and saw those “parents” exposing those precious children to that waste of humanity, I would have dragged them out into the street and given them a sinister beating. The problem is, those sorry excuses for humans would have probably enjoyed it.
Yes, where is CPS while some little girl is dressed as a dominatrix? So these parents, Gary & John want to expose their little girls to this depravity and mock people who live in the Heartland. This is disgusting and I just cannot fathom what St. Francis would think of the city named in his honor.
This is acceptable for children, yet reading the Bible in school is not??!?
They’re all at the fair - this is San Francisco we’re talking about here, afterall.
“’Why do (these people) bring kids here? This is a leather fair for god’s sake,’ said Bahran Aliassa, who was masturbating in public. He has been doing it annually for the past six years.”
If this guy didn’t want kids seeing this then why was he joining in on it IN PUBLIC?
I wrote to Miller again, and here’s the text of my e-mail:
I am outraged.
And I agree - CPS needs to be called and these girls need to be protected. How messed up must their home life be if they’re exposed to this in public? San Francisco or not, NO ONE deserves to abuse children in this manner.
No wonder kids in these heavy liberals areas are the highest drug users in the country; they actually NEED those drugs to try and forget everything they saw from their parents!!!
from article -
“Their parents Gary Beuschel and John Kruse”
I could’ve made a million bucks selling tickets to that delivery room. But I wasn’t even invited to the twin’s baby shower.
Sexual deviance knows no bounds.
Umm, maybe this is why people (including myself) think you should not have children.
If a hetrosexual couple took their kids to strip club they would be arrested…and rightfully so.
I’ve always been a little conflicted on the concept of gay/lesbian adoption. This certainly makes it a little clearer to me now.
Ask the guy who left his kid in the car while he partied in the brothel about that.
I’m sure someone will come to these homosexuals defense and say it is “culture” or some crap like that.
Disgusting. Sodom-by-the-Bay is a lost cause.
Disgusting. Absolutely horrifying. Where can I find the number to the SF Child Protective Services? “They will see more than the kids with moms and dads in Iowa.” Is he talking in terms of naked flesh? Then if so, yes, those poor girls will see more. As a Midwesterner, I am offended by both the slur on Iowa AND the thinly veiled jibe on 2 (opposite sex) parent households. However, those 2 digs don’t even register in terms of offense as to what those 2 innocent girls had to witness. I’m taking my 1 year old daughter to the Lincoln, NE Haymarket this weekend, where she can get some REAL culture. God willing, she will never see anything like San Fransisco until she is a more appropriate age. Like 42…
This is beyond deplorable!
If adults (21+) want to participate/attend in a disgusting event such as this, that is their discretion as adults.
However, subjecting children to this is akin to showing them pornography at home, which would have CPS knocking on your door ASAP.
But, since this is San Francisco, it’s all done in the interest of ‘enlightenment’ and ‘diversity’, because you know, we must not judge them!
Pathetic!
First the gay couple gets to raise kids.
Then they dress them in leather.
Then they take them to the Fulsom Street fair.
Sounds like the next stop is at the house of Uncle “Pedo” Johnny for a special visit.
Welcome to “Defining Deviancy Down” in America. Disgusting.
Place a call to Miller Brewing Co. They will write down your opinions and I was told they are reviewing them all.
Heres the phone number
1-800-MILLER6 (645-5376). I just got off the phone with them and the woman I spoke with assured me they want to know how people feel about this!
Why oh why do we find this shocking? Really. Why? Those poor kids are at a disadvantage from the get go…
Thank you Lord for letting me be born in Texas where we would put people like this in jail for child abuse.
Amen.
There’s no shortage of outrage in our liberal cities.
But we need to do better by our nation’s children.
Where were Nancy, Barbara and Dianne? I know they MUST have been there to greet their constituents….
Really is quite disgusting. Don’t drink Miller myself so not drinking it isn’t a big deal for me.
Anyone else notice how the kids have a different last name than their parents and that the parents both have different last names? It looks like they split each others last name and then combined them to get their children’s last name. Hope that made sense.
Slap your child on the butt for misbehaving and DFACS takes away your kid…Where was DFACS while this went on.
Bye Bye Miller lite. Never again in my home.
No disagreement from me that there are certain places where children shouldn’t be welcome.
But I think people are overreacting a bit. I don’t think children should be in such a sexualized environment, but wearing leather in and of itself isn’t a problem. I mean, it’s a studded collar. No harm, no foul.
If you look at the pictures, most of them aren’t even that offensive to me. So, people are in wacky costumes. Big deal. The public sexual acts are the problem. Until those are stopped, children should be kept away.
I mean, no one complains when tykes are walking down Commercial Street in P-Town surrounded by drag queens and people in leather. Because in P-Town, people are more behaved. That’s what the Folsom Street Fair should strive for.
Simply nauseating.
I just called Miller and expressed my disgust.
Thanks for the number, texasdee.
Ayy, very observant. And how equitable with exactly four letters from each leather Daddy. Sounds like an arrangement made in he…. Ah, nevermind.
Those poor little girls.
Can you imagine what they see at home if this considered ok in public?
G-d help us!
Just got off the phone with San Fransisco’s CPS department, and they are unable to do anything without and address. The lady on the other end was nice about it, though. You can bet your sweet bippy that I’ll be calling them again for next year’s fair.
This is the number problem I have with this event. But I need to get over it…they will be teaching our kids these things in school before long.
As a single parent of an 8 yo girl…i’m disgusted!
Rusty, are you trying to make a point? If so, I don’t see one. You can’t always play both sides of the ball(gag).
What do this dispicable acts of child abuse and Miller Lite have in common? They both make me gag!
Miller Brewing Co also sponsored
May Dayuh… I mean Pro Illegal Immigration marches.There all going to hell.
The Zombie link is no good, it goes to LGF.
Their all going to hell.
And to think that Miller used to be considered a redneck beer.
Rusty, it’s a studded DOG collar. The article MM quotes clearly says it was purchased at a pet store.
If you’re a rebellious teen and decide to wear a dog collar, it’s strange but at least you have a choice.
There is NO reason to put a dog collar on a child. Whatsoever.
The weenie whacker was appalled that someone brought the kids?
What is the argument FOR gay marriage again?
Never mind ‘how do they bring children there’..
HOW DO THSE PEOPLE GET CHILDREN IN THE FIRST PLACE????
By the way, Friday I saw a Miller Lite truck painted Red White and Green like a certain country’s flag and all the writing on it was really hard for me to understand.
I think it said, “Hey, don’t buy this beer…gringo”
I’ve had movie theaters check my ID for a rated “R” film (after I’ve turned 25 - which was kind of flattering), but these two munchkins get exposed to worse while people around them shrug. Absolutely insane. I don’t care what people want to wear, and I leave judgements on personal relationships to someone a lot higher placed than me, but I do believe that this is taking the “expose the children to diversity” thing too far.
Exactly, and they should just stick to the chihuahua’s that can fit in their purses.
So a certain segment of the population thinks is perfectly appropriate for toddlers, eh? Nice. Of course, these are the very same people who crap kittens about religious conservatives “shoving their morals down our throats”.
I am sick to stomach and that was just about the two “dads”. I think Miller and San Francisco should be boycotted. Or better let’s just build a wall around these idiots so we don’t have to look at them.
That pretty much says it all Rusty.
To quote Frank Zappa…
“It’s been an long time this time, pow, pow , pow…”
Annually, huh….
I’m surprised Zombie hasn’t gone insane photographing these sick fools.
.
To quote Frank Zappa–
“It’s been a long time this time…pow, pow, pow…
Annually, huh…?
Just freaking sick. After that - I am speachless.
There is absolutely no excuse for parents to expose their children to this fair!!!!!!!! Their kids should be taken away.
That being said, not all gays are going to Hell. But they are so boring, they’ll never be featured in the news.
There are gay couples who are great parents, but they won’t make it in the news.
The Folsom Street Fair is a spectacle not only for the raunch, but also because these are the people and pics that get put on the news, and the blogs. People point to this and say,” That’s why gays aren’t equal to everyone else. This proves they are deviants.” (See above posts for examples.)
It is disgusting and Miller should be boycotted. BUT blaming all gay parents or the entire community at large isn’t the answer.
Other raunch festivals have explicit age limits with an ID required. Some even require visitors to sign a waiver.
Miller has a long history supporting the gay community, HOWEVER this is going WAAAY too far.
Back in the 1970’s and 1980’s, the only companies who would advertise in gay news publications were adult entertainment businesses. Now we know why.
As bfor the whole “diversity” crap. Exposing your children to raunch and expalining it away as “culture” is crap. Most parents wouldn’t take their kids to a porn store. This is no different.
All the more reason to drink Bud!
What do you expect out of the land of fruits and nuts?
I hear the city wants to change it’s name to San Fruitcisco.
Real mature. Never heard that one before.
Rest assured that there are legions of gay folk who (1) find the public displays that go on at functions like these completely repugnant, and (2) think that any person, gay or straight, who takes their child/children to something like this is in no way fit to be a parent.
People such as this are unfit to guide the development of another human being. They veil something like this in exposing their kids to “culture” and then demand “equal rights”?
It amazes me that anyone could become so totally skewed in their perception of right/wrong that they would think this appropriate.
I’m gay. And I’ll go on the record and say that, as a community, until we collectively begin to conduct ourselves in such a manner to justify being granted civil unions or marriage, we should be denied such. These people sully the very idea of marriage and family by their actions alone.
ARCountry,
best of luck and I certainly respect the post. Unfortuately, SF seems to really be hindering your efforts but it is good to be reminded that we are not talking about ALL gays.
For me, its gonna take a little time for me to be really gung-ho about gay adoption. I live here, and from what i’ve seen, i am really unimpressed on account I think here it is more about politics than what is in the best interest of the children. I suppose when and if that pendilum ever swings back around, I would be willing to rethink my current stance.
That said.
Miller has committed corporate suicide with this one….
I can’t even imagine what those little ones were witnessing. Good grief if this is not child abuse.
ARCountry:
What a great post. Thank you for the perspective.
We’ll see.
Wow, now I know what to get my best friend for his pending baby shower..anyone know where to get baby whips, ass less diapers and a gag pacifier?
Reprobate \ n: a thoroughly bad person: SCOUNDREL -
thanks Texasdee, just called them myself. The annoucement said that they were very busy-I guess they are. I’ve been a fan of Miller Beer since I started going to concerts when I was 14 and was drinking underage, which I know is another issue in itself but I digress. However, the Champagne of Beers will never darken my door again. I don’t care if I have a party and someone brings it along. I will never buy it at a sports event, concert, what have you. I’m done, I told them that. They were nice but I could tell they were stressed out.
Last year at this time I called a half dozen “leaders” of Miller to complain of their stupidity of being blackmailed by pro-illegal alien groups for $30,000, after they discovered that Miller had given $2,000 to their OWN Congressman, Sensenbrenner. I used http://www.millerbrewing.com/aboutMiller/aboutleaders.asp
Tom Long, President and CEO, or at least someone who represented himself as Mr. Long, called me on Labor Day Sunday afternoon to respond to my complaints. We had a 15 minute educational chat. I explained that DEMOCRATS, not Sensenbrenner, made sure that ‘felony’ was part of HR 4437. Therefore, Miller cluelessly gave in to blackmail. http://www.jmi.com/immigrationmarches/#housevote
They are still clueless, and worse.
More calls to make today.
This is a large reason why the homosexual community gets hammered about gay marriage and the ability to raise families in a wholesome environment; it doesn’t happen. Using children as accessories to your life-style is utterly disgusting.
It’s not clear to me whether these kids were adopted or biological children. Can anyone clear that up? And if biological, where were/are the mothers? This whole item is frightening and confusing. The screenings for adopted children, in my experience, are very, very strict. I’m wondering how these two ever made it. Not because they are gay, but because they are decadent enough to dress toddlers in what could be construed as as sexual gear. Perhaps child welfare should be looking at these two?
Well, welcome to SF. The city of the mentally challanged and nonsensical communist elites.
There has been a campaign underway here to SEEK out Gay, Lesbian and Transgender parents for adopting/fostering children here in the bay area. I couldn’t prove it either way, but I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if perspective gay and transgender parents are given preference over straight parents based solely on account of political agenda.
Out here we really do have reverse discrimination.
Why would a city be “seeking out” a certain demographic instead of relying on those who willingly come forward voluntarily to adopt.
It matters not that these parents are FIT to the SF community et, al (Mr. Gavin) but more that they are GAY. With these types of priorities…no wonder we have “Babes in Joyland”
It is an absolute joke.
Reasons I don’t drink Miller beer, in order:
1. It tastes like p*ss.
2. It puts its name behind stunts like pro-illegal immigration rallies.
3. It puts its name behind activities that would’ve made the denizens of Soddom and Gomorrah blush.
They’re free to spend their ad money however they want. And I’m free to spend my money on other brands of beer.
Ahhh…every liberal’s collective desire for a completely secular society takes one more tiny step towards reality.
Would it surprise any of you to know that John Kruse, one of the girls two fathers, is a well San Francisco psychiatrist?
Link…(scroll down to 1982).
Link.
oops….Should have read :
“…a well respected San Francisco psychiatrist?”
Reason #934 for never visiting San Fran….I pray for these twins.
According to the Bay Insider Online, they had an article about this couple and twin Daughters called “Folsom: a place for children?” back in September of 2005.
So, looks like this has been going on for at least 3 years now and no one has brought it to the CPS’s attention? Where is the outrage?
feebiebabe,
Michelle points out that the article linked to above is from 2005.
CO of Fort Housewife:
You said San Fransisco’s CPS department needed an address???
>>Would it surprise any of you to know that John Kruse, one of the girls two fathers, is a well San Francisco psychiatrist?>>
#74 might give a lead for that info…(links follow in original)
Heh.
Since this is Bizarro World we’re talking about here, I’ll ask the questions which are obvious anywhere else in America:
Is masturbating in public not a crime in San Francisco?
Is walking around fully naked not a crime in San Francisco?
If this went on in my city, the police could have shut this down as an unlawful assembly and public nusiance, once 5 people were caught commiting the same public indecency crime, whether the organizers of the fair had a permit or not!
ooohh. my bad. thanks, RTG.
Great…let’s bathe innocent children in hedonism and debauchery, and poison their little minds with this perversion and filth…they won’t be innocent long.
Prevent Taste Loss with Miller.
Ah c’mon you guys whats wrong with parading around in front of children in buttless chaps swilling an ice cold miller beer with the fella’s?
What a moron. Kids see that stuff in downtown Iowa City all the time.
Absolutely appalling. If these creeps are willing to bring children to an event like this one and put dog collars on them, you gotta wonder if they’re peddling their kids out to pedophiles or putting them in homemade kiddie porn.
But like the British foster care agency that kept quiet on molestation by a same sex couple because of “diversity” purposes, I doubt CPS will care. Spank your child or give him too much junk food, and the gendarmes will kick down your door and haul junior away. Take him to a sex fair and you’ll be Parent of the Year.
If Kruse IS a “well-respected” figure in San Fran, then he SHOULD be investigated.
It’s unacceptable - regardless of whether one is straight or gay - to expose children to this or dress them in this sexual manner. They’re TWO YEARS OLD?
Pretty spot-on, sadly. Wasn’t California the state that wanted to make SPANKING a crime?
Oh, yeah. It was. The bill would have made it a MISDEMEANOR to spank a child up to the age of 3. So surely this has to be slightly more severe than that.
I thought it was a felony to play pornographic movies in places where children could see them. What about taking children to pornographic sexual “fairs”?
Didnt they just take Britney’s kids away for her being fat drunk and stupid?
It’s any wonder why vile evils like child porn and sex trafficking are so prevalent today. Liberals should take note that the same scientific method that gives them their precious theory of evolution also says that human beings exposed to porno-fiestas like this are more likely to commit sex crimes. I guess the feminists missed the memo on that though.
I won’t be buying miller anytime soon–or going to san fran.
In a normal world these sickos would be prosecuted for child endangerment and/or corruption of a minor. Imagine the uproar if they had been exposed to second-hand smoke in the car on the way to this porn-fest. (Tobacco smoke that is.)
Funny how the Miller High Life commercials have delivery guys going in taking their beer out of restaurants because they sell cheeseburgers for $11.00. But sell dildos and invite children and you’re A.O.K. and let the beer flow.
This crap is almost enough to make it understandable why many Muslims hate our, “culture.”
That’s not my culture, BOB.
This disgusting and shameful public display of human degradation is distinctly lacking in “culture”.
Sooo… I have to guess that this whole thing would NOT impede traffic???
Because, you know thats the reason they gave for NOT letting the Marines film there… on a Early Sunday Morning…
Sad… very sad… and I grew up near the Bay Area…
I hope Child Protective Services is going to investigate those two, or is that politically incorrect in SF?
Put me among the folks who will shed no tears when the big quake takes San Francisco out completely. Decadence has a time and a place: ice cream on Sunday, pizza on Friday, sex anywhere but in public - and NEVER in front of kids. DAMN. Just DAMN.
I’m certainly no saint, and have no children, nor do I want any. But, by God, I would be a better parent than those sacks of dung. Thanks to people like those, we will have an increase of rapists and child molesters, because ‘if it feels good, do it.’
See above, Pat. Can’t investigate without an address.
But - as someone said above - spank your child or give them a Snickers bar in their lunch, and CPS will be on your doorstep before you can blink.
Englishqueen I would like to add for Rusty’s sake that they don’t sell studded collars for children for a reason…it is inappropriate and I would personally make it my life’s mission to shut down any business that did! Right and wrong exists. This is clearly wrong.

“Faux News Alert”
Miller Brewing Company to sponsor next weeks “Breasts not Bombs” protest in Washington D.C. A company spokesperson citing “it’s an event that will draw in the 10’s and we just cant overlook this market” film at 11:00
Thank God at least they adopted girls; I shudder to think what the family after-party would have been like at home had they adopted twin boys.
Gay adoption is a bad idea. Full Stop. Thank you for additional proof. And there will never be a Miller product in my home ever again.
Someone up above mentioned boycotting Miller, which certainly seems appropriate to me, for those of us who think this is truly dispicable. Miller is currently owned by SABMiller out of South Africa (wiki entry) and they own a lot of brands in addition to Miller, so be thorough if you want to go that route. The link above lists quite a few brands (under the Global Operations heading), and some of the more common state-side include:
Fosters
Pilsner Urquell
Peroni
all the Miller Brewing Company stuff:
Miller / Miller Lite / etc
Sharp’s
Milwaukee’s Best
Hamm’s
Icehouse
Red Dog
I think I’ll boycott San Fran, too, but then I rarely travel that far west so that’s not saying much.
Perhaps I’m misreading your comment (and if I am, forgive me) - but I KNOW they don’t specifically sell studded collars for children.
I find it appalling these “parents” went to a pet store to specifically to purchase dog collars for their children to wear to this fest of depravity. Were I the clerk in this store, and they had mentioned their intentions, I would have not sold them the collars. Period.
Like you, I would shut down any business that tried to market leather gear for babies - but pet stores are, sadly, an “alternative” to mini leather gear.
So you’re sensible enough to realize that kids don’t belong there yet you continued rubbing one out, knowing they were around?
You….are a very sick man.
Now THIS is a commercial I’d love to see… The beer truck pulling up to Folsom Street and that big truck driver getting out and railing against all the ‘goings-on’ as he and his crew carry out all the beer cases …..
“You must be outchya-dayum mind!”
I don’t have any gay issues live and let live. But, this very incident is why people don’t want gays to adopt or marry. These 2 men aren’t fit to be parents and child services should look into this incident.
This is one of the many reasons I don’t think gay couples should have the legal right to adoption.
looks like a clear cut case of child abuse/endangerment.
Scarier part is that this ‘parent’ - John Kruse - is a psychiatrist in the bay area….
What exactly is he counseling his patients about - when he thinks taking children to a BDSM fair where 1/2 and full-naked people are parading and being publicly flogged?
Another article mentioning these “model” parents:

DON’T EAT THE SAUSAGE ON A STICK!!!!!
Englishqueen, my comment was directed at Rusty. I am new here but I have been an avid reader of Michelle’s work along with the comments you guys post for quite sometime. I am under no misconception about where you stand. Perhaps, I worded my comment incorrectly. My bad.
English and 30, maybe this will clear it up.
The “Toys-r-us” store in San Francisco has an entirely different meaning.
Good one, aj
30 pcs of silver: The above led me to believe you were talking to me. No harm, no foul because I misunderstood you.
My twisted little mind suddenly had this image of “Geoffrey” the Toys R Us giraffe in a leather chaps / vest outfit and one of those black leather biker/cop hats they wear….
This has to stop -
Need - More - Coffee
I know this subject has already been discussed top to bottom, but I would just like to add one thing. The comment made by the “parents” of those unfortunate toddlers seems to be implying that Iowans suffer in some way because we have no place to take our children that exposes them to leather fetishes and outdoor masturbation… I am not only angry at the attempt to insult Midwesterners, I am digusted that there are palces where culture is defined in these terms and parents begin exposing children to it so young.
However, living in a liberal, University town, I must say that these stories do their part in helping me feel a little less uneasy about raising children here. Things could be much worse where I live.
Quick jrl! Shake you’re head like an etch-a-sketch.
You’re right of course, but it is presented all over the world as a normal part of the way America is. Is there any question about why so much of the world rejects what they are told IS America?
For all those football fans, many stadiums sell Miller at the games. I called Texas Stadium, home of the Cowboys, and informed them of Miller’s latest sponsorship. We should begin to speak out against Miller. Call!! Call event organizers in your area and ask that they not sell Miller products. For those of you in Texas, the Texas Stadium phone number is (972)785-4000.
I watched a few of those videos and they were disgusting! And to subject babies to that, not too mention, there were a few older kids I saw too, is beyond my understanding. San Francisco, IMO, is one of the most vile and evil cities to live in.
You know it’s sad, but true that people from other countries look at America and see this, and the first thing they think is “evil country.” It’s no wonder why they hate us.
Shame on Those “parents,” if I can even call them that.

I already don’t drink beer, so I’d be interested in who some of the other sponsors were.
New slogan for Miller Beer: “Bottoms up!”
Kruse is a psychiatrist in SF?! And he brings his “kids” to a S&M fair?

Enough is enough.
Where is HuggyBear now?
This post should be posted far and wide. You won’t find a better example of what same-sex pseudo-marriage will do to this nation.
Where is the Department of Social Services?
Oh yeah…they are the ones who most likely let these two DADDIES adopt these little girls in the first place.
And to think I was still boycotting Miller over sponsoring that whole Illegal Alien support rally thingy. I am SOOOo behind.
Pretty disgusting stuff:
