Re: My perspective on this frequent topic

That's pretty much the same thing I said, on both counts. Also, the environment is important. As I said, the Stonewall riots took place in a certain context, a certain time and place that allowed for it, and the gay radicalization was buoyed by the a general socially progressive era. If we tried that shit today we'd be put down like dogs. It wouldn't make our situation better; it would make it worse.
