Wow, many people die because of their irresponcible behaviors. This is a prime example. These folks dont want to live by behaving safely or appropriately, they want to live dangerously and force the rest of us to spend time, money resources to keep them alive for their profanity. Not only that, they want to legally force us to give access and allow them to teach our children it's normal and preferable to live dangerously and inappropriately. It must be stopped. USE YOUR VOTE and BOYCOTT.

what the heck are you boycotting... gay and lesbian people, people with AIDS. this comment makes no sense. Either make a logical statement that one can understand or reject or support but atlease make an intelligent argument based on factual information. I'll let you comment stay for a few days but will delete unless you make sense... who in their right mind would legally force you to teach children to live dangerously. Makes no sense.

I was a member of Act-Up SF from 1988-1990. Larry Kramer really describes well my generation of activists. Every word of his description, fits. We were not who came before, and I really do not think we are representative of who came after, although it would be nice if the bolder youth of today (gay and straight) practiced safer sex in larger numbers. Is that last comment too bold? We were pretty bold, us GenXers...

@wally4media How many of your "liberated" friends..the progressive forward thinking

and really aware people of your generation are rotting underground as a result of their

delusions?

Oh thank you for posting this. Last time I saw material like this was many years ago on VHS. The new generation is definitely not the older one. I'm not saying that one is necessarily better or worse than the other. I'm just saying.

Religion can help,soothe and it can encite HAte. Like in the rural south if a caucasian female yelled "Ive been raped by a colored man.Then this man is lynched.How can this same religion tell people to hate people because of their sexual identity? Again this same religion sheilds men who molest little ones behind the clothe? We must use our own selves to dictate what wrong & whats right in our own way. I love creole'/lecajun food{french food}...& you?.

I call for those concerned that the gay lobby are using big business and corrupt politicians to force acceptance of their perverse and deadly lifestyle into every forum of our lives, ESPECIALLY into school curriculum, which is easily evidenced. Boycott businesses who contribute to homosexual lobbys and vote for politicians who recognize the threat posed by the gay lobby. Doesn't take rocket science. I feel I've been asked by the fox to explain the need to keep him out of the henhouse.
