Disease is an example. Granted, the homosexual VD rate is skyrocketing (although it does not even approach the staggering VD statistics on the American Negro in percentage).

But how about encouraging the homosexual to have himself checked, rather than driving him underground to breed and rebreed the germs, and perhaps to pass them on, someday, to your son or mine?

Socializing is another example. Being a care-free and promiscuous group, the homosexual will intermix. Shut down his place of meeting, or frighten him away by police action and he will not disappear like a bad dream. He will simply move elsewhere.

But how about allowing him his place? Let him fraternize and mingle in peace and quiet-where the law and other interested people know where he is and can keep an eye, if not control, on his behavior.

No one could agree more than 1, and my thoughts are echoed by responsible homosexuals I know, that the child molester is a menace -homosexual or heterosexual. But how do you and I know that some youths don't want to be molested, or propositioned. The way I hear it, Hollywood High is a notorious neighborhood because there students there that openly offer themselves to passing homosexuals. With that kind of "Lolita-ish" encouragement, it is no wonder the area is popular.

Mr. Heyler's column speaks of a clergyman who has a friend whose son is propositioned in the pursuit of his career." Well, I'll just bet that boy enjoys it, and has offered the above pat excuse when discovered. Either that or, you can rest assured, he recognizes it for what it is and, doing so, cannot be hurt in the least way by it.

I'm not saying that's right, or good, mind you. I'm saying look to the parent for training and education as keenly as you look to the homosexual for seizing upon his opportunity. My son knows all about the "Third Sex", and is able to laugh off, or extricate himself gracefully from situations that youth in this city get into, unawares. He is not terrified, he does not run. He is able to look a man in the eye and say "no" peacefully, calmly, rationally.

There has long been the plea to legalize homosexual activity among consenting adults. Church leaders, psychiatrists, almost every profession in which there are lucid and objective thinkers have discussed the possibility-even gone so far as to recommend it, in some cases. The proposition falls dead, unfortunately, on the politician's ear, for he is more concerned with the possibility of political suicide with such a suggestion.

But look at Europe where, in most countries, such activity is not against the law. Europeans view the homosexual with a detached dislike, or curiosity, or approval, or laissez faire, or what have you, and nobody worries about it. And it is no more prevalent or obvious, or disgusting because of its legality. Indeed, it is less so, because one tends to flaunt disobedience of a law one cannot or will not obey.

And no one can deny that the breaking of other laws is minimal in the homosexual society. These are not bad people they are happy with their lot, and wish to be left alone, for the most part.

Your banner for this series has been "Dishonor, Disease, Death". Now let's take a look at this bit of headline sensationalism.
