please, please know there are so many of us that love you for being you - it doesn't matter to us what color, creed or sexual partner you prefer - what does matter to us is that you are honest, loving, courteous and considerate.

Margaret - Michelle and her "born again" family are running scared and striking out at those they believe are weaker than they are - because when it comes down to it those "we hate......." are all the same - bullies who need to find a victim they can villify.

So Margaret and all the rest of you wonderful gay, homosexual fags - remember you are loved and those that love you are vast in number.
