Slavery comes to mind... A sarcastic "thanks" goes out to those who choose against inclusion and openness. Your ignorant influence will hurt yet another generation and keep some of the sweetest people in the world from feeling whole. Myrick, McIntyre and Burr lost my vote and will now have 100% of my energy working against them in the next election.

We all need to pay dramatic visits to our elected official's offices! I recently did so to Bill Nelson's office in Orlando.

You guys did great, and I wish I could have been there. I think Representative Myrick made a bigger statement about her support (or lack of support) of our troops in the way her office responded, then she could have if you would have been able to deliver all of the message. Congratulations, CRANE. We're not stopping. :) @GetEQUAL tweeted this article, so CRANE is being recognized nationwide. You guys did great, and I wish I could have been there.

CRANE chose to target Myrick on April Fools' Day to drive home a message with which we think most Americans would agree: Only a fool would stand in the way of our national security and military readiness.

The coward needs to be exposed, called to task for her staff's actions, and voted out of office!
