   The thing I think is especially funny about this, if it can be said to be funny, is the idea that if you destroy enough things, the ideas behind them will disappear. This posits two conditions; the idea is already dying and that no one is capable of retaining the idea/formulating new ones on the same topic.

   Need I say that both suppositions are shit?

   For those who want to protest this attack, there will be a vigil on the one week anniversary of the attack, 7 PM, Tuesday, June 20th in front of the library.

   As we saw with the vigils around Matthew Shepard’s death nearly 8 years ago, this sort of event is one of the best ways to raise public consciousness about anti-LGBT hate and violence. Squeaky wheel gets the grease.

   Exactly. Like burning a book will instantly turn gays straight. Man says “Gee I’d like to suck your cock but I can’t. There’s no books supporting my desire to do so.”

   MB-The ones that want to repress are always the most self repressed I think. They want to punish others for being sexually free because they can’t allow themselves to be.

   Andy-Thanks for the info. You’re right-it is a good idea to use such a tradegy to try to prevent future ones. I hope it changes some hearts and minds for the better.
