Most of them stood by and did nothing while anti-gay church groups went on the attack. Here in California, gay rights "leaders" are publicly denying support to those of us who want to get out into the street and make our voices heard.I'm now hearing stories from a number of people who turned to gay rights groups for help when help was needed. None was given.If we want others to accept us in a spirit of love, then we need to first learn to bestow that love upon each other.
