I have a new follower on Twitter, so I checked him out and I am so happy he followed me. He's so refreshing and positive. He's an inspiration to all kids with questions. Wow!

The two women with the children were at the screening last night. Unfortunately I was didn't stay for the Q & A. I was just too tired.
There were 4 married couples who were called up on stage during the opening, ranging in time together from 15-39 years. There was even a couple in the audience with an 82 year old woman who met her wife in May and married her in July. She said she didn't want to waste any time. __________________

At the beginning of the opening, a bunch of people were introduced and spoke. One person was from Equality Florida, Michael Farmer. (Our Staff | Equality Florida) He talked about the Pulse fund and how quickly people from all over the world assisted monetarily as well as in spirit.
He said that after the shooting, the first thing he did was call of the other members of the organization to see if anyone died or knew anyone who died…then they took action. He said he set up a Go Fund Me page and I don't remember how long he said, but I think it was within 5 hours, donations came in from all over the world and they'd already raised a million dollars. In the end, they raised 29 Million and 9 Million went directly to family's and victims of Pulse. Please don't quote me on exact timeframes, (I didn't take notes) but I remember 29 mil and 9 mil. __________________
