It was initially quite confusing. I thought Diane herself had done the shooting

LOL! Still, Dianne became a star from that day forward.

In fairness, Milk and Moscone were killed in different rooms minutes apart. Your scenerio makes it seem possible that Milk could have saved Moscone, when in fact he could not.

Harvey Milk was a snarling, supercilious, self-important punk who crossed the wrong guy. It destroyed them both.

I am thinking about buying a gun, my french wife said she will divorce me, probably should have bought the gun earlier.

Your wife is no doubt proud of her French heritage. The solution is quite simple. Just start humming the 'Marseillaise' and quote ...

Aux armes, citoyens!

She'll get the point, real fast. Here is the full text in both French and English.

You are overlooking the fact that the City Council did have a faction organized against Dan White (irrespective of anyone's sexual orientation), and that conspiracy culminated in White identifying the participants and attacking them.

There were, of course, other ways to attack them (I proposed involvement of the FBI), but the fact is Harvey Milk was in the conspiracy up to his neatly manicured armpits.

He knew and he could have been in there protecting Moscone long before White showed up.

He was the first openly gay supervisor in San Francisco. He was also killed as he witnessed the murder of the mayor. Wrong place, wrong time and paid with his life.

Correct me if I am wrong here but I think I just saw a preview for a movie with Sean Penn in it playing this Harvey Milk person. Since I don’t like Penn anyway I wasn’t interested but the subject of the movie was a turn off also. Penn had lost a lot of weight and just seemed like a weasel. A “sweet” weasel but still a weasel.....

Arnie has been a better republican lately then the entire herd of DC jellyfish.

Don't be so sure. The Brain Tumor will eventually sign such legislation. He is the evolving Brain Tumor.

> Not going there.......

How about:

"...those who were most impacted by his contributions..."
(Reminds me about how gay men are always faster at getting ready to travel, because their sh*t is already packed...)

But it would be wrong to go there, too.

Harvey Milk...There’s a name from the past!

I heard that the real story in San Francisco was that Dan White’s wife told him to go out and get “bologna and milk” and he thought she said “Go get Moscone and Milk.”

I’m tired of efforts by homosexuals to milk this for all it’s worth.
