kengr: (seperation of church & hate)
about this:

http://yahoomisfits.com/memorial

It's a post using a political cartoon reminding us of the Holocaust and related horrors. Thing is, the author is very selective in his listing of victims. He mentions 1,900 Catholic priests, but there's nary a mention of the 4,000-12,000 gay men who died in the camps.

For those of you not aware of it, the pink triangle symbol used by a lot of gay causes comes from the fact that just as Jews had to wear the yellow stars, gays had to wear a pink triangle.

And when the camps were liberated? The gays were put in *jail*. The German government didn't apologize to *them* until 2002.
