Has not most of Sam Adams's notoriety, and contribution to Portland, been of the sexual impropriety nature, homosexual impropriety in his tedious case, but improper to be sure.
Isn't that why he is not Portland's perma-mayor? I certainly agree that this news is not about homosexuals, or their perceived special rights, or endless, trendy media exposure.
This is about a dirty, boorish little man! 
I have homosexual friends whom I admire and hold in loyalty, they are the last people I would call "gay". 
Within a century or so, if science still exists, researchers will find a genetic cause for the unfortunate wiring mishap that lies at the base of homosexuality, let's call it the "sin gene"
It could well be found to be analogous with autism, another wiring problem, most likely neonatal. This outlook puts me at odds with religionists and militant homosexuals, a position that I trust
