NAMBLA is a real association in the real world, but it differs slightly in the comic.

Tonight's key-note speaker is Alex, a male lizard, bisexual, who belongs to the Kemetic faith. Very famous among the culture, he is a very outspoken supporter for the cause, but has somehow not ever been caught doing anything remotely illegal - no child porn, no molestation charges. Doesn't make him any less wanted by the FBI.

Appearing earlier is a non-pedophile Cynthia, a female, straight mongoose. She used to work under Joel's mom in the mayor's office, but got fired for what appeared to be an argument with the mayor about fishing. She's a regular at the local Church of the Shepard, and though she wishes she hadn't gotten fired, she views the free time as a blessing, and a chance to participate more with her church.
