I’m not sure ‘fallen’ is the correct terminology given the sordid history surrounding Comstock officials acting as a special agents of the U.S. Post Office. Post Office officials were first granted censorship powers sometime after the Civil War in the late 19th century ?? forbidding delivery of any mail having to do with sex which continued until the 1950’s ?? The representation on a measly stamp is a pretty fake outrage in comparison.
Very sad that a pervert like Milk would be honored by anyone, let alone the USPS.
Straight men who marry their baby momma, work their job, and defend their country will be rare enough some day to qualify for a stamp.
Well...we were eating at a Pub a couple weeks ago, and a couple of women were necking....I said kinda loudly....”get a room”.....didn’t think they heard me...but, they left shortly thereafter, and I heard one of them say....”get a room”....(luckily my husband had his back to them....could have gotten ugly.)
I’ll be happy to go to the PO and then refuse that stamp and tell them why.
That is an excellent insight, Vermont. Thanks.
Not trying to be cruel, but most of the dykes I've ever seen have already done the "gotten"
No "could have" about them.
The death of Harvey Milk gave us Diane Feinstein. Did it not?
Someone above reminded of that. I had forgotten.
We must keep praying and keep fighting the good fight. It is shocking but then again not really b/c the Bible told us we would be mocked in the last days for our beliefs....well, here we are!!
It’s the US government commemorating Harvey Milk and not necessarily the American people — the two are slowly getting mutually exclusive.
Point taken..
Agenda uber alles
It all comes down to what is a reasonable level of decency that all in the community are obliged to abide by.. Or .. Face the consequences.
You be the Judge.
And the ref..
Some folks have been known to go ‘Postal’
For lesser issues..
Nothing new, just more personal , at least for some
I avoid the USPS as much as possible. I have found the service to be so sub par as to be insulting. I no longer take mail at my residence because the carrier was lifting items from my mailbox.
My neighbors and I have our mailboxes on a plank between two posts.
I have a notion to put a trash can under the boxes with a sign "Junk mail" and a sign on the mailbox that states "1st Class Mail only."
Any ship named after Harvey Milk should be named the “USS Milktoast.”
He was a strange creature. A pretty sympathetic film was made about him, and for a documentary, it was not bad. However, it didn’t cover any dark secrets he had, esp. if it concerned any relations with young boys.
But then again, that’s Hollywood and San Francisco.
LOL.
And eww.
How about a Harvey Milk LSD stamp, that would be more appropriate.
Just have a stamp of a semen-encrusted glory hole, shot in any SF bathhouse...
The death of George Moscone gave us Dianne Feinstein. Dan White killed him as well as Milk.
