could be written about select examples from straight society as well.

Not in my experience. No heterosexuals even came close to being in San Quentin, or trying to kill an ex-lover. But then I chose to hang out with people who believed that the moral absolutes were an important aspect in life.

Of course, they weren't perfect, and made mistakes, but none were as seriously dangerous as the gay group whom I worked with. A lot of the straight people were well-grounded, not selfish, and had directed most of their energies into making others happy, instead of themselves.

No one can argue with your personal experiences. They are what they are and they are legitimate. However, I lived in Emeryville, CA for five years. From my bedroom window, as I closed the curtains each night, the last lights I saw in the distance across the bay were those of San Quentin.

It’s odd that you say “no heterosexuals even came close to being in San Quentin, for trying to kill an ex-lover.” The last two people I prayed for at night were in San Quentin because I could see their windows in the distance from my own. The first was Scott Peterson, who was straight, and killed his pregnant wife and dumped her body in the bay below me. The second was Charlie Manson, who was straight and who had his straight followers kill Sharon Tate, who was also pregnant. Both are still at San Quentin.

Your personal experiences are your personal experiences and they are legitimate. But let’s not confuse them with the total reality of our world. With that, I am closing my curtains and adding you to my prayers this evening...even though I cannot see your window from my own.

Have a good night.
