Reply #80: They may be marginal but they still hurt

[Salluc]

Several years ago, I was at a huge gay rights march in Washington and his people were there shouting, taunting, holding high their posters about god hating fags and Matthew Shepard burns in hell. Their hatred was just so pure and so intense, I felt like they sucked all goodness and life out of all the air around them. I actually felt winded.
Fortunately, I was marching between two very nice guys, who I will love for the rest of my life, who began, in fantastically loud voices, to counter their evilness by shouting back that God is Love!
They put their arms around me and returned love and oxygen and life back into the air around me.
Thank you to those lovely men.
