Our trans elder Cheryl Courtney-Evans continues to be on the case watching Peggy Denby AKA 'The Queen of Mean' and her acolytes in the MPSA (Midtown Ponce Security Alliance) continue to attack, denigrate and harass the ATL trans community and push for a draconian (and probably unconstitutional) ordinance that would banish people from Atlanta for a second prostitution arrest.
The MPSA is now enlisting conservative leaning blogs to help with their 'fear and trans smear' campaign aimed at the ATL trans community in order to drum up support for their unjust ordinance.
Here's Cheryl breaking it down for you and her previous posts about the ongoing drama.

With
these meetings going on, all the while Peggy and her MPSA continue their
campaign against the transgender community via constant media attacks
in so-called "finger on the pulse of the community" blogs and online
communications through their web site. Following is one such example
from a local blog called the "Midtown Patch" which professes to keep the
Atlanta community informed of the 'happenings of midtown Atlanta'.
Titled "MPSA Gives Update on Midtown's Trans-Prostitute Gangs",
posted by Marc Richarson (Editor), it supposedly details the actions of
'trans-prostitutes'. To give an indication that the MPSA uses strongly
derogatory terms in reference to our trans* community, the editor begins
the publication of the article with this disclaimer:
The
original article written by the MPSA that is below contained language
that I believe was inappropriate for Midtown Patch. We decided to
delete the word and replaced it with something else more appropriate
that we placed in parentheses to note the edit.
Notice
the air of fear-mongering utilized in the piece, as well as the
inclusion of the photo (most likely used from some totally un-related
incident).
Notice
how this author tries to give the impression that he (or she) has done
an indepth 'study' of the "trans-prostitute situation"...as if he knows something about "walk-in" versus "drive-ins" and three different types of "johns"...
And what would an MPSA stalker know about "prostitute traffic shifting to Stone Mountain, GA." [which is miles away
from 'midtown' Atlanta]?? The MPSA is a half step above a neighborhood
watch group, however with some its members being off-duty Atlanta police
officers [who really try to intimidate]; there's not suppose to
be any "connection" with the Atlanta Police Department [officially], so
how would they be privy to information/records from the Stone Mountain
area?? Their "jurisdiction" doesn't extend nearly that far!
