Harvey Milk a hero – really?

by LISA on NOVEMBER 11, 2013 in BLOG
The state of California recently came up with a new state holiday: Harvey Milk Day. The US postal service even came up with a Harvey Milk commemorative postage stamp. So….Who was Harvey Milk? The short answer is that he was a San Francisco city commissioner. He became famous for being one of the first openly homosexual candidates to achieve public office. Therefore, he has become a hero to the homosexual movement. However, if you look deeper, things become very worrisome. Mr. Milk was also a rapist with a preference for underage boys that had substance abuse problems. He apparently considered himself a mentor to these young boys. He would encourage them to (among other things) run away from home. One of his victims, Jack McKinley, unwisely listened to and followed the” wit and wisdom” of Mr. Milk. Years later, McKinley committed suicide presumably because of his angst about his experiences with this pederast.

What does it say about a movement, when it pulls its heroes from the ranks of people like Harvey Milk?

Sooooo....the administration is honoring a pedophile.

Once again, Harvey Milk will be filled with seamen. Mind the poop deck.

Well, It is a “fleet oiler,” so maybe it makes sense!

The gay mafia is securing their historical idols.

And the history on Jim Jones will be rewritten one day.

He was defended by the Carters, Gov. Moonbeam, and Castro Milk.

Milk had sex with Jim Jones. Jones also raped/”seduced” the doc who made the poison punch.

This is disgusting. I'm sure they cold have found a Navy or Marine Medal of Honor winner to name the ship after rather than a "celebrated" sodomite.

Disgusting.

Are they going to paint the ship pink? If they do paint the ship pink, it will be referred to as:"Operation Butticoat".

"It looks like a Photoshop job."

I think you're probably right. It'll take a couple of years before that kind of photo becomes real - but it won't be long.

So, we need to change the term ‘human rights’ to ‘human vices’. Excuse me. Only for faggots.

I'm pretty certain Harvey Milk never benefitted the US Navy, but he did try to help the very "Reverend" (sic) Jim Jones, when pressure for investigation was building:

It gets worse, much worse.... the real Harvey Milk was a political ally of mass murderer Jim Jones, who pulled off the "Jonestown" massacre just days before Harvey Milk was murdered. Harvey Milk deserves no honors, only contempt.

Drinking Harvey Milk’s Kool-Aid -- Lionized by Hollywood and California state legislators, the real Milk was a demagogue and pal of Jim Jones
