Today I was on my way to see ze last Potter movie and was stopped on the street by some friendly bloke with a binder and a satchel. I was expecting the usual crap I don't care about, but I was wrong. He informed me that in the U.S. it is still legal in 29 states for an employer to fire an employee for being lesbian, bisexual, gay, or transgender. I then promptly signed the papes and contributed. The Human Rights Campaign fights for LBGT equal rights in the U.S. and are looking for any contributions they can find to spread their message. I signed up for a simple 5 bucks a month.

So because you are not American you do not support Basic human rights or just basic human rights in America?
(Side note.... Trololololol)

I'm Canadian and I support not only this but Human Rights all over the world and beyond. I think its a goal that we should work towards and hopefully in the future win.

Yeah, saw it on the first night. :)

Not as good as the first part, but pretty great all the same.
Spoiler! :
I was just hoping they wouldn't do the "19 years later" bit. Ugh.

If you had read the books you would have already known all the spoilers...
Part 2 is by far one of the best harry potter movies.

I support human rights, im just saying if i was in america i would support this more. Due to being in Aus where we dont have this stupid employment problems. (although we did for a short while about 5 years ago :?)

As a btw, part 2 have no build up because all the build up is in part 1 :/

Part two has some build up, but yeah, not as much. Part two's mainly action, which is why it's good it was its own movie. If it had been with part one, then pretty much of all of part two would have been the last few scenes, maybe taking up an hour at the most.

I'm not just an idiot...I am a M&S idiot.
I had to watch 6 and 7 part 1 the day before I watched it. I'm so glad I did otherwise I would have been completely lost.
Also I like how the plot twists all made sense at the end.

This thread isn't about Harry Potter, it's about human rights. Please keep it that way.

The thread name has been changed to include harry potter... EFIN LOL
Also i saw harry potter 7/2 in Gold Class! :D watching it with my fancy hot dog, iced chocolate and churros on my reclining chair 8-)

(I think i was told Americans dont have Gold class. Well its the same as going to the movies but its more fancy, you can get waiters to bring you food during the movie, you sit on big reclining leather chairs and the room only holds a nice small size of about 20-30 while the screen is still fairly big)

We have a few theaters like that, but they're very few and far between. Mostly you'll find them in big gambling towns like Las Vegas or Atlantic City. I've personally never seen one, except on TV. It's considered a kind of luxurious novelty.

Oh yeah, Nart, I think I'll look into that. It seems right of my alley in terms of politics. I've always been a staunch supporter of gay rights.

This thread has meshed HP8 and LBGT rights beautifully.
