WOW! I never knew of this (haven’t known much about either Harvey Milk or Jim Jones, really). How appalling that this letter is not known to every American — Harvey Milk and his colleagues working to block investigation of Jim Jones!!!
This shows yet again the perverse double standards in our media and politics. Had a conservative public figure protected Jim Jones in this way I’m pretty sure we’d all hear a great deal about it.
Was Jim Jones a homosexual?
