Deaf educator, vlogger Carl Schroeder in gay solo action has gone viral on social media platform in Deaf community.
Warning: Some viewers may find this images distressing. This content that is not suitable for under ages.
Ricky Taylor (aka Ridor9th) who is known as the most controversial blogger and vlogger in Deaf community, he posted an article on his blog "Carl Schroeder In Gay Solo Action" has gone viral on social media platform in Deaf community.
Read it and weep...
Let's close 2018 with a bang with the shock evidence for you all to use your hand to cover your mouth that will open wide after seeing the damaging video clips.
Carl Schroeder died 5 years ago of illness associated with Pancreatic Cancer. He was well known Deaf educator and v/blogger who would go after people who disagreed with his vision, argument or conversation.
Carl Schroeder used to teach at dozens of colleges including Gallaudet University and Western Oregon University.
It is open secret that I was vocal critic about his so-called "Deaf Hate Crime" which I occasionally disputed his claims as he tried to compare his findings with homophobia.
It is well known that Carl Schroeder was the culprit, whom Ella Mae Lentz encouraged him to proceed, who called Maryland's Child Protection Services on my sister in retaliation of me being critical of Carl and Ella Mae in 2010 back in Frederick, Maryland.
Ella Mae Lentz cannot deny this because I still retain the copies of group email correspondence which clearly pinned on Ella Mae Lentz and Carl Schroeder.
Yes, the CPS interviewed me, my Mother, my sister, my sister's kid, Debra Garner and her kids at our homes and at MSD. It was quite confusing and embarrassing at that time.
All because Carl and Ella Mae did do this to harm and embarrass my family members just to retaliate on me. That was such a disgraceful thing to see.
If you know me very well, these things won't silence me. It makes me ... more of a defiant than ever.
Even after Carl's death, I always knew that things like this will emerge. Karma does not care if one is dead or not, it always comes out on its own time.
And I have no qualms about using it to my benefits even to trample and discredit on him even after his death.
After all, he was the one who did do that to me, my sister, my niece and my mother the first time around. Hence I reserve the right to do the same.
Yes, I am aware that Carl has his children and family still alive these days. Like I said, he pulled this disturbing tactic on my family members and in turn, I don't give a shit about whether if this is going to impact his children and his family!
Carl Schroeder started this and I finished the job like Scalphunter did do to his victim.
A friend of mine went to a gay bathhouse not a long time ago, he apparently wanted to get his rocks off which is normal for any gay man.
Most gay bathhouses tend to show variety of gay porn activity on their TV screens. My friend was shocked to see Carl Schroder performing the solo action under "mature men" videos. Needless to say, my friend recorded of this inside the bathhouse and shared it with me.
Judging the video clips, it is obvious that Carl did do this sometimes in 2000s when he was in Hawaii or Oregon. At the time, he was active in the Deaf Vlogosphere and yet, he participated in this.
I'm enclosing the edited video clips for you to see. You cannot deny that the person on the video clips are Carl Schroeder himself.

Meet two Deaf, Latino drag queens who earned internet fame.
The Deaf comedy duo, cheekily nicknamed "Deafies in Drag," has been making YouTube videos covering a range of topics, beat faces, death drops, lip-syncing, killer reads and tongue pops are just a few of the things that typically come to mind when we think about drag queens. The duo explains: who is Deafies in Drag?
Being deaf does not, but that’s just one of many differences that separates Casavina and Selena Minogue from your average queen. Sometimes they just have fun on camera, playing games like Heads Up, and other times they address some of the struggles that affect today's Deaf community. A few videos are makeup tutorials, and many are outlandish comedy sketches filmed in front of a green screen. Together, they have a simple, but important goal in creating videos: using humor to expose LGBTQ folks to Deaf individuals, and vice versa.
"The Deaf community is not strongly exposed to drag queens or [LGBTQ] culture, and the [LGBTQ] community is not strongly aware of Deaf people either.” Deafies in Drag told OUT. “So we try to expose both of them along with our third identity, being Latino, to share that we all experience oppression, discrimination and face a lot challenges in life. We take these unfortunate moments and turn them into comedy to forget the seriousness and not let it get us down."
Back in 2010, Jimmy and Alvaro first met at Gallaudet University in Washington D.C., the only Deaf University in the world. Shortly after, they began dating and have been together now for more than six years. While in college, the two loved making comedy sketches for Facebook. "But we felt limited doing just male characters and wanted to expand our creativity,” they said. “Drag opened the door for us, allowing us to express our ideas and stories more fully.”
Like many other late-in-life drag queens, they discovered the art through RuPaul’s Drag Race. "It was season 2, and we remember being so confused by RuPaul's identity," the pair said. "As we kept watching, we realized how creative drag was and how it’s flexible without any real rules. We knew that was exactly what we needed for our videos, and began learning makeup through YouTube."
And so began their experimentation with drag, creating various characters before settling on Casavina and Selena Minogue. A direct translation to "House of Wine" in Spanish, Casavina’s look and persona are heavily influenced by Amy Winehouse, while Selena Minogue is named after two of Alvaro’s favorite singers: Selena Quintanilla and Kylie Minogue.
Besides their immaculate makeup and comedic banter, the two have an arresting stage presence that's heavily influenced by being deaf. "It enhances our visual,” they said. “Facial and body expression is part of American Sign Language, and it helps us to paint a certain look that goes with [our] facial expressions." Their grand gestures and over-the-top facial expressions lend itself perfectly to drag, making for wildly hilarious videos that simultaneously spotlight intersectional issues.
Once their channel, Deafies and Drag, started to gain more widespread recognition, the duo began traveling to various cities, where they met with fans for the first time. "They made us realize we were doing more than just fooling around on videos," the two said. "We were helping to spread awareness of our barriers. This motivated us to use our drag to spread positivity and educate people through comedy."
Since creating a platform for themselves to reach out to members of both the LGBTQ and Deaf communities, the two have not stopped educating the public, projecting positivity and ultimately inspiring hope. "We believe that no matter what obstacles or challenges you face, there is always another way to get around it," they said. "We don't let society put rules and limits on us just because we're deaf. It's important to know that whatever dreams you have, you go for it."
Deaf drag queen dazzles the audiences of DeafNation World Expo in the sin city of Las Vegas.
LAS VEGAS, NV -- KTNV Channel 13: When you come to Las Vegas, when you dance on the Strip, the music is almost all you hear.
One performer takes to the stage in high heels and a tiara hearing absolutely nothing. Jolene is a drag queen who lives in Las Vegas. She is also fully Deaf. She may not speak, but she is not quiet.
"A lot of people can't believe that a Deaf person can do it," said Jolene, through an American Sign Language interpreter.
She's been doing drag for three years and has never met another Deaf drag queen. This may not be the job that pays the bills, but she loves signing songs and apparently crowds love it too.
"Oh yeah, people are really surprised, people are really shocked. People announce that I'm Deaf and it shows; people clap like this they say yay!" said Jolene.
When she's performing, she follows a screen and feels the vibrations of the music with the help of a hearing aid.
Even though she's one of many performers in Las Vegas for the Deaf Nation World Expo she stands out, and a few inches taller, than the rest.
You can catch one of her weekend shows at Charlie's Las Vegas on Arville Street.

HIV is a gay disease... like it or not... Queer people not happy with campaign ad in California.
LOS ANGELES -- At least it is according to a controversial new ad campaign being deployed around Los Angeles on billboards and in print. And who is doing this? Not some radical conservative group, but the Gay & Lesbian Center of Los Angeles.
In this day and age, when you would think that we have come so far in the struggle to get middle America to embrace the fact that this is not a disease with an orientation, this comes along and is making waves even in conservative circles and feeding the fodder.
Response in the LGBT community has been strong, and according to many of the postings on the discussion board at the Own It. End It. website, not everyone is happy with it.
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a Gay Disease? Are you kidding? For those of us living with the shame and fear of being HIV positive, I'm angry. For those who've lived long enough to see the world begin to accept HIV as more then a gay disease, I'm offended. For those who expect more from our gay organizations, I'm disappointed. Most people will only read your flashy tag line and that's what they'll promote. This world is filled with misinformation, due to our short attention spans. Most people get there information from bits and pieces propagated by the evening news or a flashy headline. I expected more from your center. While the details of your ad are most likely accurate, you've done an injustice to your community. You've flown off course and I'm saddened by your decision to promote this hateful headline.
The Los Angeles Times article regarding the controversial campaign was quick to point out that the billboards will not use the "HIV is a Gay Disease" tag, but instead will simply say "Own It. End It." I frankly don't think that this distinction makes it OK. Own what? This has generated enough attention in L.A., at this point, that the casual observer know exactly what the billboards are asking gay men to do. Take ownership of a disease they didn't create. How can you ask us as a community to own something that has affected millions globally? And to a much greater degree worldwide the heterosexual populaion? It boggles the mind.
Personally, I'm not comfortable with this at all. Gay men have fought this stigma from the very beginning of this disease. To have it come full circle in an shock tactic campaign, even in the interest of public awareness, is not cool. And before anyone says, "Look, it says clearly in the ad that they don't believe that it is a disease with an `orientation'" let me tell you something:
I have taken enough marketing classes and seminars to understand that the initial impact of the bolded taglines is whatthe average driver on the streets of L.A. will remember, or the average reader skimming a magazine will read. This does a disservice to the disease, and to those stigmatized by employers, insurance companies, familes, and the public at large.
Mr Mesich explained how he “felt like the only Deaf Gay in the world” after coming out and struggled to find a place where he could fit in.
He explained how he came out to his mother over instant messanger, saying: “Before my 21st birthday, I was talking to my mum on AOL instant messenger. We were talking and my mum asked me, ‘Are you gay? Are you interested in boys?’

“I was thinking and realized it is time for me to open up, so I told my mom, ‘Yes, I am gay.’
“She said, ‘Okay, that’s good I am happy to hear that from you. I knew you were gay since you were a little kid’.
He continued: “Years later, after college, I started dating. I dated a few guys on and off. It was good and enjoyable.
“I met this one person and he was hearing. We went out for dinner, and we could communicate a little but sometimes it’s hard with a hearing person. Mostly I would text on my phone to communicate.
“It was a very nice time, as he was very patient and understanding. But I realized that being Deaf and gay can be difficult with gay hearing people that I had dated.
“Sometimes they don’t understand about Deaf Culture or know about Deaf Culture. Also they don’t know that sign language is my first language. Some of them understood, but some of them didn’t fit in with Deaf culture.
“Comparing high school to where I am now, I used to feel lost and isolated. I didn’t know who I was.
“Now I feel confident, happy and know who I am. I’m comfortable with hearing and Deaf people, it doesn’t matter to me.
“Now I know who I am but I am not in a rush to look for love. All that matters are my family and friends who I enjoy being with.
“Whoever is out there will be very supportive and love who I am. I want it to be something that lasts.”
He added: “That’s the reason why I want to tell my story. If someone out there is Deaf and gay, I want them to know that there are other people who are Deaf and gay... Read The Full Story.
Deaf gay man alleges mistreatment at District of Columbia jail.
WASHINGTON, DC -- A former inmate in the District of Columbia correctional system is suing the city for alleged mistreatment. The D.C. man is Deaf, and the lawsuit claims he was unable to effectively communicate during his period of confinement. It also alleges his treatment got worse when he complained.
44-year-old William Pierce is profoundly Deaf. He wound up with a 60-day sentence in the city's correction system after an altercation with his partner resulted in a conviction for simple assault. At the order of the judge, Pierce actually wound up in the Correctional Treatment Facility to get help. The CTF adjoins the city jail.
Arthur Spitzer, an attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of the Nation's Capital, said in an interview: "There was no interpreter there for [Pierce] at intake, or at any of his medical appointments, he had some medical problems or at any of his classes. He was taking an anger management class, and he didn't know what was going on. He didn't know what people were saying. He couldn't participate in the group discussion(s)."
The lawsuit says, under the Americans with Disabilities Act, accommodations for the Deaf must be made so inmates can communicate. Things got worse for William Pierce when he complained, according to his attorney... Read The Full Story.
Gay Deaf man sues city for mistreatment.
WASHINGTON, DC -- In a lawsuit filed in federal court on Feb. 1, a former D.C. jail inmate who’s Deaf and gay, accuses the city’s Department of Corrections of engaging in disability-related discrimination by refusing to provide him basic services required by the Americans with Disabilities Act.
William Pierce, 44, who was sentenced to two months in a city jail for an assault conviction, charges in the lawsuit that jail officials repeatedly refused to provide a sign language interpreters as required by law and retaliated against him for complaining about his conditions by placing him in solitary confinement.
Pierce, who has HIV, was given only three of the four HIV medications he had been taking at home and was unable to understand why prison doctors changed his medication regimen because of the lack of a sign language interpreter, the lawsuit says. It says the emotional distress Pierce suffered due to the alleged discriminatory treatment was heightened when jail guards handcuffed him shortly before his mother arrived for a visit, preventing him from communicating with her in sign language.
“The District of Columbia needs to be held accountable for its outright discrimination and reminded that people with disabilities cannot just be locked away and ignored,” said Arthur Spitzer, legal director of the ACLU of the Nation’s Capital, which filed the lawsuit on Pierce’s behalf in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
Spitzer said most of the alleged discriminatory actions against Pierce took place at the D.C. Jail’s Correctional Treatment Facility. The CTF is operated by the Corrections Corporation of America, a private company under contract with the city. “D.C., in turn, needs to hold the Corrections Corporation of America accountable for its continued disregard for the wellbeing of the individuals the city has placed in its care,” Spitzer said in a statement..

NEW YORK CITY -- In a video posted on YouTube Monday, a woman identifying herself as an Occupy Wall Street protester says that a young, Deaf man was allegedly raped at New York's Zuccotti Park. Worse yet, the incident was not reported to police. Acording to the protester in the video, drugs and assault are becoming a real problem at the protest in New York City.
Irma Grese was a lesbian nurse in the SS Heatherdoom that operated in Nazi concentration camps and homosexually assaulted her victims and forced them to do sex acts before she killed them. The Nazi's were radical leftist that set out to destroy Judeo/Christian values and encouraged that kind of behavior. "Atheist nations are sheer horror, the absense of religion makes you a monster" she said.
