The best insult I can think of when asked about Harvey Milk is to simply say "Who?"

[BillyBonebrake]

Hahaha ... I’m going to try and remember to ask that next time I’m buying stamps at the P.O.

[I want the USA back]

Why does he deserve a stamp? (he doesn’t. it’s to gain the favor of a priviliged few)

[thackney]

Every time I read Harvey Milk, for some reason I think Harvey Mudd. I cannot get rid of the association.

[oldtech]

This is sick. There are folks out there who are truly deserving of getting their pic on a stamp,but this ain’t one of them.

[dfwgator]

Only a matter of time until the Navy names a ship after him.

[spokeshave]

The US Postal Service is endorsing a political pressure group?

Yeah...the Eid stamp...

and the "stamp out breast cancer" ....(no pun intended)

[Genoa]

Crowds line up outside of Castro post office

Like they needed another reason to congregate.

[bigbob]

No, the kind with sticky goo already on the backside

[Phillyred]

Yep. I want our rainbow back! Stop using God’s beautiful sign for such a sick lifestyle.

[goodnesswins]

Wonder what total sales will be on this POS

[stratman1969]

And no one will discuss how he supported and defended the phony “Rev” Jim Jones, who killed 900 of his followers in Guyana. “My name is cut into stone in support of you—and your people.”

[dfwgator]

I suspect Milk “knew” Jones.

[latina4dubya]

Actually, the killer was a fellow democrat and the conflict was over political issues, not sexuality. I’ve read that Milk was just in the line of fire, as another city politician was killed in the same rampage.

he and Mayor Moscone were killed by Dan White... this was the best thing that ever happened to Dianne Feinstein, as she then became Mayor of SF... her bridge to the Senate... Dan White served little time having used "THE TWINKIE DEFENSE." remember that? i think he did five years, and shortly upon release committed suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning in his car...

[ConservingFreedom]

Is it the kind you have to turn over and lick?

No, the kind with sticky goo already on the backside

Hey! Trying to eat breakfast here.

[boycott]

Pervert should have been in prison for his sex crimes. He was a child molester.

[dfwgator]

So when does Jerry Sandusky get a stamp?

A few more years of Obama and he might just get one.

The joke at the time was that Danny White was sent by his mama to the grocery store to get milk and baloney.

Instead, he went to city hall and got Milk and Muscone.

Then he replaced Roger Staubach as quarterback for the Cowboys.
