More SoulForce/Equality Rider Update

Those Equality Rider kids are at it again. They just cannot resist a sassy set of cuffs.

We saw SoulForce media director Paige Schilt briefly at the UT/ET Student Action Summit today and she mentioned that the Equality Riders are in Clinton, Miss., and that more arrests have occurred. We'll wait for an update from them before passing along more that we heard, but in the meanwhile, South Florida's Express Gay News (SoFlo Represent!) has this article.
