Matthew Wayne Shepard (1976-1998) – Matthew Shepard was a young gay man who was tied crucifixion style to a fence, beaten, tortured, and left to die in Laramie Wyoming on the night of October 6, 1998. He died 6 days later in a hospital on October 12, 1998. Many anti-gay discrimination laws were passed as of 1998 and more have been passed since. Despite the passing of various statutes at various levels of government, I believe we are at least 150 years, if ever, from Laramie, Wyoming reaching as high a level of acceptance of gay people as we find in San Francisco, California. Castrocreepersociety I am sure, also believes this, why do think they are living in San Francisco? But, since 1998, and even before that, Castrocreepersociety has been more interested in making the Castro an exclusive neighborhood of historic homes than in welcoming young gay people who come from areas of the country such as Laramie, Wyoming. The Castrocreepers put themselves forward as arbiters of the gay community and I find this very disconcerting.   I suppose we should not be surprised at their duplicity.  We need only look to the code of their religion, the first commandment of which tells them to value above everything else the establishment of historic homes. And their seventh and eighth commandments actually puts false dealing and duplicity as normative traits.  I am wrong to judge them based on the strictures of the old fashioned Ten Commandments as these are not their commandments. They follow a totally different path.  The moral code of their religion will make them a very tough and slippery nut to crack. Please refer to the Castro ethics section of this website for more details. How are we to combat this? The battle will be long and hard, just as it was with the Slavers of the Confederacy, the National Socialists of Germany, and the Apartheidists of South Africa. I will be writing more at a later date on ideas for bringing a defeat to Castrocreepersociety. I think it is important to at first identify the enemy and their code of ethics to be able to devise an attack plan.
