Harvey Milk (1930-1978) was an activist and politician, and the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in America; in 1977, he was voted to the city supervisors' board of San Francisco. The following year, both he and the city's mayor George Moscone were shot to death by another city supervisor, Dan White. Mr. Milk was previously the subject of the Academy Award-winning documentary feature "The Times of Harvey Milk" (1984), directed by Rob Epstein and produced by Richard Schmiechen. Milk will be the first non-documentary feature to explore the man's life and career.
Milk was released November 26th, 2008 and stars Sean Penn, Emile Hirsch, Josh Brolin, Diego Luna, James Franco, Alison Pill, Victor Garber, Denis O'Hare. The film is directed by Gus Van Sant.

Being gay myself Punisher, I agree with everything you have said EXCEPT for it being a chosen lifestyle. You do not choose to be straight do you? No, you just are.

Wow xanderdrax that was so harsh. I dont think I can handle it. What an insult. So basically you can state your opinion about him or anything else for that matter and anyone who disagrees with you shouldnt be allowed the same opportunity. Thats a little ironic that you mention rights when you dont want me using mine. I wasnt insulting or even communicating to you in any way shape or form so please dont write crude things to me or about me and I will return the favor. I do not want any kind of contact with you what so ever. If you cant respect this then you are really an ignorant person. By the way I dont like the term homophobic. Phobia means fear of, Im not afraid of gay people, I just dont like the life style they have chosen. Actually its not even that, I take that back, they can be gay all they want. But when people tell me I HAVE to like them or respect them that pisses me off. This applies to all aspects of life, I dont need someone else's ideal trying to be shoved on to me. I will come to a choice or conclusion myself. Im sure you will respond to this with some smart ass remark, but I want you to know that if you are trying to anger me, you are failing big time. So do yourself a f*cking favor and stop wasting your time as well as anyone else's.

Hey, Punisher. Why dont you shut the f*ck up? Harvey Milk was a revolutionary man who gave that community the rights they deserved. If you dont have anything useful to say, shove your homophobic lips up your ass.
