Many here have expressed homophobic sentiments. I myself do not support the homosexual agenda and oppose redefining the traditional family.
But it is high time we take the example of Dr. Paul and judge people as individuals. Many homosexuals, despite their unfortunate proclivity, are fine people. Kent Snyder, our fallen hero, was one of them. (1) (2) On a personal note, my brother is another one of them.
More importantly, they are individuals. This is how Dr. Paul sees them, and how true libertarians like us should see them.
Some may see it as in bad taste to bring this up, but it serves as an important lesson to all of us. Moreover, the fact that Dr. Paul would, for 20 years, entrust the bulk of his political success to a gay man puts the nail in the coffin in debunking James Kirchick's ridiculous smears about Paul's 'bigotry.'
So let's aspire to be more tolerant, and to expose frauds, and liars like Kirchick when they defame our hero, Dr. Paul.
We owe so much to Kent.
