How ironic. 48% of us Colorado voters opposed amendment 2, but you want to
condemn everyone within the borders. Blanket discrimination - does that
sound just a bit familiar? And does your boycott extend to members of the
gay/lesbian communities? I have a novel suggestion: start treating people
like human beings:  you'll be amazed how effective it is!
