Gerry Studds Dies at 69; First Openly Gay Congressman |
Is it a coincidence that this sodomite, and one of the inspirations for
NAMBLA, should die at "69"? .

Gerry Studds Dies at 69; First Openly Gay Congressman
Gerry E. Studds, the first openly gay member of Congress and a demanding
advocate for New England fishermen and for gay rights, died early Saturday
at Boston University Medical Center, his husband said.
Former U.S. Representative Gerry Studds, the first openly gay person elected
to Congress, died early Saturday at 69.
The cause was a vascular illness that led Mr. Studds to collapse while
walking his dog on Oct. 3 in Boston. He was 69.
His homosexuality was revealed through scandal. In 1983, he was censured by
the House for having had an affair 10 years earlier with a 17-year-old
Congressional page. For Mr. Studds, formal and dignified, a model of old New
England reserve, the discovery sparked intense anguish, friends said.
He had long been unsure of the role his sexuality should play. At the nation
's first major gay march on Washington in 1979, he told friends he could
neither attend nor stay away.
"His act of courage was to jog within a block of it," said Representative
Barney Frank, Democrat of Massachusetts, the congressman from Mr. Studds's
adjoining district, who announced his own homosexuality four years later.
"He felt that conflicted."
Once outed, however, Mr. Studds refused to buckle to conservative pressure
to resign.
"All members of Congress are in need of humbling experiences from time to
time," Mr. Studds said at the time. But he never apologized. He defended the
relationship as consensual and condemned the investigation, saying it had
invaded his privacy.

"J Young" forging in message
news:bZidnRAQ6r-toq_YnZ2dnUVZ_qadnZ2d@giganews.com...
<nada>
Just a heads up that a troll is posting assorted OT filth via a Giganews
account.
I've apparently upset his delicate sensibilities, so his cowardly response
is forgery.
The troll in question is a racist nutcase primarily using the nym "J Young"
, but also known to use the following nyms:
From: "IBen Getiner" <Lappcatt@aol.com>
From: "Lord Howard Hertz" <lordhowardhertz@fastmail.fm>
From: "Auric Hellman" <adhellman@volcanomail.com>
From: "'quack-quack'" <quack-quack-quack@hotmail.com>
From: "simon sez" <simonsez@volcanomail.com>
From: "son of simon" <sonofsimon@volcanomail.com>

"J Young" is well known as arch-rightwing bigot, Nazi sympathizer, and
stalking loon. He's a Holocaust denier, homophobe, and all around loser.
He uses AOL proxy servers and a Giganews account.
He never resonds to challenges to his trolls, as he's far too stupid and
cowardly to engage in rationa debate.
He's not hard to spot. <g>
Sorry for the interruption.
