A leader in the national homosexual community has admonished homosexuals for their inability to take responsibility for their actions and for the decay of their community structures.
Larry Kramer, playwright and founder of ACT UP, delivered his message in a speech in New York City after the presidential elections in November. Excerpts from his speech were published last week in the Dallas Morning News.
“I hope we all realize that, as of Election Day, gay rights are officially dead,” Kramer had said.
The 69-year-old interpreted the re-election of George W. Bush and the results of the ballot measure on same-sex marriage to mean that “almost 60 million of our so-called ‘fellow’ Americans voted against us.”
