Jamestown Is Not San Francisco

April 19, 2012
The Post-Journal

To the Readers' Forum:

I draw your attention to the article in The Post-Journal of Monday 4-16-12, Page 1, concerning "Areas To Improve Tourism."

Question...Did you read all the way to the bottom of the article? That's where you will find this rather unrelated comment concerning "improvement ideas":

''Finally, Greg Rabb, D-At Large and council president, provided a very short suggestion.

'"Easy,...We need to market ourselves as a same-sex marriage destination."'

What! Is this how we are going to put Jamestown on the map? A baby San Francisco? We've already been in the national limelight, (recall one who went about Jamestown knowingly infecting girls with the HIV virus).

And this suggestion, from the so-called council president Perhaps equally amazing is the seeming natural proclivity of 98 percent of the area's "clergy" to remain silent (as often occurring in the past).

News flash, fellas: The second half of Romans, chapter one, is just as true as every other page in God's Holy Word (The Bible).
