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