Oh, OK.
[Extracted from Harvey Milk's biography by Randy Shilts, his friend and accredited journalist. The book is "The Mayor of Castro Street, The Life and Times of Harvey Milk".
"...sixteen-year-old McKinley was looking for some kind of father figure...At 33, Milk was launching a new life, though he could hardly have imagined the unlikely direction toward which his new lover would pull him." (pages 30-31)
This was in New York at the time where the age of consent was and is 17. Milk took McKinley across state lines [in violation of the federal MANN Act] soon thereafter to California where he continued to sodomize him [see "lover" under the context of "gay"] until he turned 18 which is the age of consent there. So for YEARS he was sodomizing a minor. The crime was exacerbated by the fact that McKinley was mentally ill and addicted to drugs, making him thrice incapable of legal consent to sex. That's three felonies of sex with someone incapable of consent if you're keeping track. And that's precisely how Milk liked them, addled, confused, vulnerable...and very young...
Milk dumped McKinley as he aged past his "use by" date. Despondant and shut out, McKinley killed himself eventually over his mental turmoil with Milk by jumping off a building in NYNY where they met.
Milk was consumed with empathy for the poor boy's suffering. Basically Milk found it annoying that McKinley was suicidal. Such a turn off. Here's how he handled his "son/sodomite's" angst after he cast him aside:
Apparently McKinley was a rebellious "son"/child sex victim of Milk's because when he jumped to his death from that building in NY, it made quite a mess.
Kids in California are required to celebrate the serial child sex offender in school each May 22nd. The law is SB 572
SB 572 Senate Bill - ENROLLED :
"...perhaps more than any other modern figure, Harvey Milk's life and political career embody the rise of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) civil rights movement in California, across the nation, and throughout the world."...
Under SB 572, children will perform "suitable commemorative exercises," remembering the "life," "accomplishments," and "contributions" of Harvey Milk
You should read his biography. The LGBT groups that pushed for his postage stamp [some 60+ of them in the US, Canada and Mexico] have. It's available online or at many bookstores. If you need any further quotes or verification I'll be happy to oblige.
