[Leica] A Photograph and a few comments about Orlando andthePhilly Gay Pride Parade

[leica at jayburleson.com (Jay Burleson)]

Tina, you misunderstand. When did I say ANYTHING about NOT wanting to 
see photographs of political and contemporary issues and their ensuing 
discussion?

I was referring to the growing length of discussion attached to the 
original of this thread that was getting severely off the topic of this 
list.

Things such as marching with buckets of blood to throw.
Things such as discussions about another countries firearms policies.
And more.

I understand the anger and passion, and the fact people are wont to ask 
questions of their friends in search of possible answers.

I'd prefer to do that elsewhere.

I'd like to look at & discuss photographs (political and otherwise) here.

Jay
