Stephen Gately of the boy band "Boyzone" died tragically recently. Now the Daily Mail is trying to use the fact that he is gay to assume he was basically into all kinds of things that ultimately led to his demise.
This is so completely, and utterly homophobic it's quite astounding. For example "Gay activists are always calling for tolerance and understanding about same-sex relationships, arguing that they are just the same as heterosexual marriages. Not everyone, they say, is like George Michael.
Of course, in many cases this may be true. Yet the recent death of Kevin McGee, the former husband of Little Britain star Matt Lucas, and now the dubious events of Gately's last night raise troubling questions about what happened."
