Years ago, I saw a couple of homosexual friends of mine coming home beaten black and blue, the victims of a gay-bashing assault. Now I read of a whole string of assaults on homosexual tourists and prominent gays in Italy, and of the gay-bashing murder of the captain of the women's national soccer side - a known homosexual - in South Africa. And I am told that queer-bashing is normal in the poorer areas of Washington DC.
In a different moment, one might debate why this poison is spreading. Here and now, I will only say that one does not have to have a San Franciscan outlook to find this revolting, unacceptable and to be suppressed.
