For what it's worth, this is what I see as a by-stander who  isn't 
emotionally attached to this topic....

>From my point of view, it seemed to me that Tom Ovarec took  offense NOT at 
the posting content describing the event or at the event itself,  but at his 
kids reading the subject line  "Live Homosexual Acts  at Public Square" (A line 
obviously written to titillate the reader.)   He seemed shocked that his kids 
read that when the list is normally about  auditions, classes, show 
announcements, etc. and things of a "sexual" content  are not the norm.  So as a dad, he 
"knee-jerked" reacted and wrote an angry  post instead of cooling down first. 

I didn't save his original email, but I do not recall him  bashing or 
condemning gays or shouting that he is anti-gay.  Think about  it.....take the HOMO 
out and the headline would read "LIVE SEXUAL ACTS AT  PUBLIC SQUARE" -A 
headline that might offend some people.   It might make parents not want their kids 
to see it.   We are all  different.  We have different upbringings, different 
religious backgrounds,  different hang-ups, different emotional baggage.   
Should we not all  accept each other for the individuals we are?

I LOVE this list, but I really dislike when someone gets  bashed, abused and 
shamed for stating an opinion.  Those who are  name-calling and judging Tom 
for his opinions are just as guilty of what they  are accusing Tom of doing.  
Live and let live people.  We are all  one.
