Mike Wallace' CBS Documentary - The Homosexuals (1967)
CBS Reports ^ | March 7, 1967 | Mike Wallace

Posted on 04/11/2012 1:10:11 AM PDT by iowamark

"The Homosexuals" is a 1967 episode of the documentary television series CBS Reports. The hour-long broadcast featured a discussion of a number of topics related to homosexuality and homosexuals. Mike Wallace anchored the episode, which aired on March 7, 1967. Although this was the first network documentary dealing with the topic of homosexuality, it was not the first televised in the United States. That was The Rejected, produced and aired in 1961 on KQED, a public television station out of San Francisco.

Three years in the making, "The Homosexuals" went through two producers and multiple revisions. The episode included interviews with several gay men, psychiatrists, legal experts and cultural critics, interspersed with footage of a gay bar and a police sex sting. "The Homosexuals" garnered mixed critical response. The network received praise from some quarters and criticism from others for even airing the program.

Queer, Faggot, Gay...whatever.

Notice the name changes to make the demented lifestyle have a more warm and fuzzy sound.

We also have Hispanics, a name that now applies to 100% of the Mexican heritage in this country. It used to be Mexican but now it’s Hispanic. Try to figure that one out.

The word “Hispanic” comes from an island in the Caribbean and refers to their culture....NOT MEXICO.

And although not mentioned, the ideas of NAMBLA were part of the initial gay rights movement.

Thru all human history the primary sexual ideal for homosexual men has been pubescent or adolescent boys.

Greece, Renaissance Italy, Japan, etc., etc.

In many of these cultures the attraction to boys was seen as more or less normal. If you were attracted to adult men it was considered a perversion.

in which the line about “gay apparel” was taken out

Yeah, I wondered about that. Would be just be an ascot, or full-on drag?

No, the Israelites had such rules.

The practice was widely accepted among many peoples, and as is usually the case the rich and powerful could get away with anything even where it was against the law.

"I also found it interesting how they were talking about the fashion industry and how it was dominated by gay men who were attempting to change the typical runway model into a more male like, almost prepubescent form for their fashion shows—and in many ways that has happened, models are anorexically slim, no curves, and flat chested."

What's amazing is the fact that most women have bought into that garbage. They think a size 0 is actually normal. Having breasts, a butt, and female curviness is distasteful to them.

There were some funny descriptions in the recent thread by Laz on David Brock. Navigators of the windward passage made me laugh. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2862581/posts

[And as a Catholic, I think many of the Priest/pedophilia scandals began because gay men trying to hide their true identity tried “hiding out” in the Priesthood, basically infiltrating the church when Priests were needed.]

I think most deviates who entered the priesthood and monasteries desperately hoped that forced discipline, prayer and daily spiritual ritual was a therapy that might exorcise the demon.

I think in our area cops are fairly aggressive in clearing them out; I don’t think parks (at least any that allow hunting) attract them as much as rest stops.

Pedophiles and homosexuals seek out children. People are always shocked that queers/pedos are working with or around children. Duh! The priesthood(and the Church) was purposefully infiltrated by the Left and the queers. It’s Satan’s work pure and simple. But I will also point out that the bad priests are a very very small percentage of priests worldwide, and that Protestant religions have plenty of pedo/queers too- it just isn’t fashionable to talk about them when there’s Catholic bashing to be done.
