Gay rights ruling

The letter to the editor from Richard A. Busemeyer (Post, Oct. 15) entitled "Rage and Hate" is the kind of inflammatory opinion that serves no purpose.

The Supreme Court has just ruled that Cincinnati’s charter amendment regarding special rights for gays is allowed to stand. It was voted for by a 62 percent majority of voters in 1993.

Surely, all were no Republican or religious groups. There are many Democrats who supported this amendment, too.
