Dear Editor,

Some of his supporters are saying that Donald Trump is a "friend to the gays.” Really?

Would a "friend to the gays" have chosen a vice president who supported a constitutional amendment to ban marriage equality, signed a bill to jail same-sex couples for applying for a marriage license, wanted to divert funding from HIV prevention to conversion therapy, opposed repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, and complained about the passage of the Matthew Shepard Hate Crimes Bill?

Sincerely,

Robert LaRosa

Whitestone
