LGBT MONUMENTS IN AMERICA Chris discusses the latest development in the homosexual movement that now involves the establishing of LGBT monuments in the U.S. to commemorate the history of gays in America. The announcement was made outside an historic gay bar in New York that the National Park Service would now begin to add LGBT landmarks "into the narrative of American history." The bar was the site of gay rioters in 1969 who protested laws against homosexuality. Also discussed is the new forever stamp commissioned by President Obama to celebrate the memory of Harvey Milk, the first openly gay citizen to be elected to public office in San Francisco. Obama had also given the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Milk's memory back in 2009. But who was he, and what did he really represent?
