  20. I agree with you. It is better to appoint people who are SYMPATHETIC
  21. towards gays than appointing gays. Some gays, especially the closeted
  22. ones, can be more anti-gays than some of the straight homophobes.
  23. That is one of the reasons why the magazine "Advocate" started the
  24. practice of "outing" closeted gays. I don't agree with that policy
  25. but I can see why they want to do that.

  27. Sam.
