Examine this verse:
"I say -- listen up, friends, I'll tell it like it is!

Tassie says he decided to become more involved with the Jackson LGBTQ community after his wife passed away in 2001 and his two lesbian friends gave him tremendous support.

The anti-discrimination ordinance passed later that night, with a vote of 5-2.
