Wilson’s Veto of Gay Job Bias Bill
- Share via
Last Tuesday I was stuck in traffic as a gay rights rally blocked Sunset Boulevard. I appeared on the Channel 7 news denouncing what I thought would be a lengthy inconvenience. When the marchers cleared the way after a few minutes, I regretted my remarks since the inconvenience to me doesn’t compare to the insult Wilson delivered to roughly 2 million Californians. I suppose if the governor acted to permit my persecution on the job, I’d block traffic too. Cowardly Pete caved in to the Yahoo Minority and should be ashamed of his support of bigotry. I’m ashamed of my remarks.
