It's like calling someone a fag meant "no harm". Would you accept anyone calling Blacks, Asians and other racial groups by their epithets? If not, why should gay men be any different?
In retrospect, your only regret is that there is something calling archiving.

I never considered it from that angle when I posted that. I can see now how that could be precieved as homophobic. I know many people here are gay (including myself), but felt that people should be honest enough about themselves to hear all sides of an issue. That's why I posted that article to show where Ford might have been coming from with his remarks.
No one has stopped to ask me why I support Ford in spite of his gaffs. Although I'm gay doesn't mean that I would not hear out a candidate's full platform (which appeals to me on a lot of issues) just because of a gaff. This isn't a police state. It's a democracy. Ford (or Haprer for that matter) cannot undo the years of progress the gay community has achieved. I'm hurt that people automatically think the worst of me because I say positive things about one candidate.
