<<Meanwhile Sheppard's killers got life sentences and Stalin gets your approval. >>
Yeah, ironic, eh? Or would be if you ever got around, despite your numerous failed attempts, to show that Stalin did anything as heinous to a homosexual as Sheppard's tormentors did to Sheppard.
And, BTW, my approval of Stalin has nothing to do with his homophobic leglislation, it mainly centres around his destruction of Nazi Germany and saving the world from fascism. If Sheppard's killers have any comparable accomplishments to their credit, I must have missed that part of their biographies.
And I wouldn't be so smug about their life sentences either. If they had killed a white mother of three, or a retired white grandfather, they would have both been sentenced to death. Where is the evidence for that statement? Just my own common sense and my knowledge of life in the U.S.A. generally.
