of gay people with lies. These people all say that at some point they met a gay person who lead them to understand that it was wrong to call us pedophiles and that sort of thing. The bulk of DU defends and accepts that they are now different and sorry. The admins know the histories and keep them here on DU.
So I offer that either we need to alter the way we deal with 'former bigots' across the board, or offer to all of them the same sort of acceptance.

What's sauce for the goose and all of that.
