	The Valley News :: RE: ‘Cancel Gay Pride Week and parade’ (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-08)
		For an opinion piece, it severely distorted facts about the gay pride festival in San Diego. You could at least mention the 14 churches that march in the parade or the church services held during the festival or the fact that most people watching the parade aren’t even gay.
		In fact, there are almost as many gay people in heterosexual marriages as there are those who are out of the closet and proud of who they are.
		This is the type of rhetoric that continues to socially outcast a segment of society based on who they are. You are responsible for the exact problems you portray as problems in a community that you hate.
