Sounds to me that Rudi is being kind to those gays he knows and respects. It is a fact that gays are a part of our culture and it is not uncommon to become aware of or be friends with a gay person. This is not approval of their sexual persuasion, just a fact of life. Rudi inhabits a social world of politics and legalize people who, like family, are a part of your life. There is acceptance and also compromise and I am thinking that Rudy is quiet practiced with straddling that line.
Rudy hosted gay parades. The filthy gay parades that infest our nation. He also officiated a gay wedding. I’ll have to disagree that he doesn’t approve of the lifestyle. I beleive it is more than just respect for gay friends, and more of an acceptance of the deviant behavior while also turning a b,ind eye to all the horror that the gay lifestyle brings on society.
