Some People Call Me The Unofficial Mayor

Coming Out Is The Most Political Thing You Can Do

I Fully Realize That A Person Who Stands For What I Stand For, An Activist, A Gay Activist, Becomes The Target Or The Potential Target For A Person Who Is Insecure, Terrified, Afraid, Or Very Disturbed With Themselves.

Let Me Have My Tax Money Go For My Protection And Not For My Prosecution. Let My Tax Money Go For The Protection Of Me. Protect My Home, Protect My Streets, Protect My Car, Protect My Life, Protect My Property...worry About Becoming A Human Being And Not About How You Can Prevent Others From Enjoying Their Lives Because Of Your Own Inability To Adjust To Life.

I Ask For The Movement To Continue, For The Movement To Grow, Because Last Week I Got A Phone Call From Altoona, Pennsylvania, And My Election Gave Somebody Else, One More Person, Hope. And After All, That's What This Is All About. It's Not About Personal Gain, Not About Ego, Not About Power - It's About Giving Those Young People Out There In The Altoona, Pennsylvanias, Hope. You Gotta Give Them Hope.

I Cannot Prevent Anyone From Getting Angry, Or Mad, Or Frustrated. I Can Only Hope That They'll Turn That Anger And Frustration And Madness Into Something Positive, So That Two, Three, Four, Five Hundred Will Step Forward, So The Gay Doctors Will Come Out, The Gay Lawyers, The Gay Judges, Gay Bankers, Gay Architects I Hope That Every Professional Gay Will Say 'enough', Come Forward And Tell Everybody, Wear A Sign, Let The World Know. Maybe That Will Help.
