Pity fora

Dear Editor:

Well, I have finally suc-
cumbed! Here is another
reader who feels impelled to
respond to a Doug Collins
column.

His most recent (as well as
past) diatribes on AIDS,
homosexuals, women and
wimps have done their stuff
— more ‘news’? for the
North Shore News. Does

your paper employ him for
sensationalism? You must
do, for I see no other
justification. .

As D.C. would say, ‘Let
me set the record straight.’’
There used to be a time 1
admired, even revered, old
Doug for his witty and fac-
tual dialogues with Laurier
LaPierre on the Vancouver
Show some years ago:

Now I feel more pity for,

become bitter and twisted.
The law of averages says he
will have those who are for

against him, but how dare he
use God as a direct line of

one who invented the botch,

has created it. Homosexuals
cannot help being what they
are. They are not to be pitied
or understood; merely ac-
cepted: for what they are.
Hell, | am a mere woman
but 1 do not want to be
anything else — certainly not
a macho force such as old
D.C.!

Maybe I should wish that
if you are ever reincarnated
(that God in his folly should
grant), you return as a
woman or a homosexual.
You might then understand,
