Remembering what a splash that was made last year, we decided to check-in with Dixon City Councilman Ted Hickman. Ted ignited a firestorm last year by declaring July, as SPAM month. SPAM is Straight Pride Americans Month. …I am proclaiming July as NOT LGBTQ-WTF aka… Straight pride month… You know… I hereby resolve that I…
