Exactly Ron. Kids (and especially boys) should be getting the message that leading a gay lifestyle is very dangerous to your health. I was pleased to read recently the death rate for AIDS victims was falling. Seems the advances in drugs are starting to have a positive effect. Pornography in our libraries? Oh yeah, that should raise our culture to new heights.

I agree that porno in the libraries is shameful so I'll check out the article. Sometimes they take the stance that if you give up rights for safety then you don't deserve either. Was it Benjamin Franklin or someone else of his caliber that said that? Smoking is a drug addiction and homosexuality is questionably not a choice. I believe that it's genetic and not a lifestyle alternative. Until it is established how this sexual preference is obtained I think it's only fair to leave it unequivocally separated from a substance that is clearly as highly addictive as nicotine. The jury is still out but it's pointing toward genetics.
