Hi. I just set this article up, and as you can see, I'm not completely familiar with all of the tags, including the one that sends up that sign saying "this article is a stub". Which it is.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.182.172.109 (talk) 20:46, October 11, 2005

"especially gays, who opposed NAMBLA and supported the legalization of prostitution."

it seems that he was against gays because they were against the legalization of prostitution. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.152.52.113 (talk) 08:49, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I believe I may have been one of the people thus libeled by Fred Cherry. But Cherry would often make insanely outlandish accusations against gays on Usenet, even those who attempted to find consensus by declaring their opposition to the NAMBLA bugaboo and voicing their support of the legalization of prostitution. This was one of the things that made him so vexing.

I'm assuming that is what was meant, so, at the risk of being WP:OR, I'm clarifying the entry to read "... especially gays, even those who opposed NAMBLA and supported the legalization of prostitution." Rangergordon (talk) 07:42, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
