While not being surprised at Schlapp's behavior, I will never understand how folks like schlapp just don't embrace their sexual orientation. Life is short - if you are gay, then be gay and be happy and enjoy your life. It makes me sick that instead, they chose to be hateful and repressed and homophobic.

The GOP is completely void of empathy, compassion, and acceptance and it seems to have multiplied x1000 in the last few years. I will never understand it.

An old, old story: Closeted gay men, or those fearful of same-sex attraction within themselves, are so very often our primary tormentors. Straight men secure in their sexuality simply don’t give us much thought. And why should they?

Those “straight” people who obsess over homosexuality clearly have some type of personal stake at play. And when those people bring their obsession into the public sphere to do harm to others, it is the responsibility of the press to call them out.
