Perhaps I phrased that wrong, and perhaps I'll only get more "unPC"
by replying, but I feel I must.  As I have nothing against the gay lifestyle,
it was not bashing.  I wanted my point to be that the corner of 22nd & P
is a very busy corner, always people on the sidewalk hanging out and
looking for new friends.  My comment would have been similarly directed
if I was expecting you to walk by an elementary school playground during
recess:  Hope you don't mind walking past a bunch of noisy, muddy kids....
The comment was purely for information.  I'm sorry if I offended anyone,
it was unintentional.
