- Wow. I have to say that I didn't perceive this as an attack on
- homosexuals but rather a satirical comment on the sorry state
- of affairs that exists on our nation and around the world with respect
- to equality for homosexuals. Is it not true (amazingly enough) that
- sexual activity between people of the same gender is forbidden by law?
-
- I do not believe that the above section of that posting was intended
- to be in any way malicious (but don't mistake me for its author).
-
- If this becomes a drawn-out flamewar, can we consider moving it
- to somewhere more appropriate (although this group can occasionally
- use the extra content :-) ) ?
