To the Editors:
I am concerned that there has been no mention, not even in the notebook or trends sections, about the alarming bill being considered in St. Petersburg which could ban all forms of homosexual or transgender expression. It is, in effect, criminalizing anything not heterosexual. Such a profound example of violating human civil rights cannot be ignored. I am amazed that there is not a single reference to this in your March/April 2012 issue. Journalism needs to strive for objectivism and to report such events. This can adversely affect thousands of people and can reduce the quality of life for everyone. Please consider reporting on this very important issue so that more people can become aware of the gross injustice that may occur.
Sincerely,
