GAYS WIN OVER HATE & FEAR CALIFORNIA & SEATTLE

HATE & FEAR REJECTED BY VOTERS! PROPOSITION 6 DEFEATED OVERWHELMINGLY' THATNKS TO THE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP! IN SEATTLE. THE ANTI-GAY “COPS FOR CHRIST” FAILED IN THEIR BID TO REPEAL THE GAY RIGHTS LAWS.[ Assemblyman Willie Brown, who squeeked through to victory over the bigot Mike Henderson, told a Bay Area television audience that “Former Governor Reagan and former President Ford, along with Senator S.I. Hayakawa gave the No on 6 campaign respectability, without them, «op. 6 would have won. A great victory for gay rights.” The .defeat of Prop. 6 dampens the anti-gay forces of Anita Bry- Mt and John Bri^s in future efforts, for tney know that gays in Cdifomia have political authority, thanks^to bipartisan'’supp ort. but gays have no power as just Democrats or Republicans, statewide, as the vote clearly shows. In Seattle, Initiative 13, a police sponsored measure, would have repealed the gay rights law in that northwest city, but the “Cops for Christ’ faded, almost two to one, as Seattle residents de­ fended gay rights. A strong pro-gay candidate defeated easily a very anti-gay candidate for the city council of Seattle also. In Miami Florida, the gay r ^ t s initiative failed there, but- :d a far better vote than before, showing thatjatos to» ' IB in political strength in even Dade County kScAviTami. iber 7th, 1978 was a very great and gay day in America!

Campbell received six months, suspended, and two years probation. Campbell was arrested at his home in Pacific Heignts, four doors down from Board of Supervisors President Dianne Feinstein, who dia not like the idea of such a place almost next door, and after receving word from this publication. Supervisor Feinstein told the San Francisco Police of the Opera­ tion, and the Vice unit busted Jack Campbell on July 13th for allegedly pim­ ping and pandering, and soliciting a client for prostitution. Campbell's irttomey, John Vaisey, told the media at the time that his client was mnocent and that it was all a mistake or misunderstanding. Vaisey call­ ed the charges “defamation”. Vaisey could not be reached since the convic­ Rev. Ra tion of Campbell to see if his coments on the case were the same as when the CRUSADER broke the story. Several gay “leaders” and other publications have defended Campbell s be­ haviour in the matter. Most responsible gays were shocked that a man of Campbell s stature would become involved in such an operation such as Section 315 states. It was pointed out that regardless of how much a person has done in the past for the “movenient” does not allow them to break the laws of the State of California, even tho certain publications try and justify this. It has been pointed out that Campbell only recently moved to our city and obviously was not aware of the many different cliques and personalities in the city. He has allegedly sold out his interest in 330 Ritch Street baths.
