I would be interested in seeing the evidence on which you based this broad, sweeping accusation.

This is not a charge one would make without voluminous documentation, is it?

I notice that Gobal Views has these guidelines for posting comments that I hope will also be respected on the Topic Puerto Rico News Forum…

Unfortunately, reports about gay rights, especially this issue of the Marriage Amendment to the Puerto Rico Constitution, usually brings forward hateful comments by bigots and religious zealots in Puerto Rico.
