3/31号那天，Chuck Page 忽然出现在反SCA5的28群里，大家都不相信是真的。他确认是他本人后，由LY主导，和Chuck在28群里像朋友一样聊了一个晚上。对话相当精彩！
第二天一早，我写下：昨晚观看＂围炉夜话＂，让我感觉像在梦中一样。早起看见满屏留下的各种智慧的理性的言语，让我颇为感叹：没想到Chuck会进到我们的小圈子里来和我们对话；没想到LY在没有任何准备的情况下能问出那么多理性而直率的问题；没想到Chuck的理念和想法和我们许多人如此相近；没想到所有人都很enjoy，呼朋唤友地进来观摩......
大家可以看出，Chuck是一个非常有智慧，愿意去面对问题，解决问题，很温和共和党人。他现在正在为他的选举筹款（离目标还有点远），如果看完他的采访，你喜欢他，请捐出一点钱来支持他，帮帮他，帮他实现他的梦想 --- 在第一阶段，成功胜出加州28区众议员的初选。其实，帮他就是帮助我们自己，帮助加州成为政治生态更平衡的地方，更能凸显民主的真谛。

因为谈话很长，我会分7篇发出。不要错过任何一篇哦！
Section 3: on LGBT rights.
Chuck
I believe that LGBT, like everyone else, has the same rights. I do not think that the government should be in the marriage business. The government should provide civil unions so that if one individual chose another to be their legal heir or beneficiary, the government should allow it. Marriage is a commitment or promise made between 2 people, their family, friends and their God.
I don't feel that children or young adults should be able to choose which bathroom they can go in. That will lead to problems when someone takes advantage of the law for bad purposes. Those specific cases should be handled in a professional manner on a one-on-one basis. There has already been a situation where an adult with male organs walked around in a girls locker room naked because he believes he is a woman in a man’s body. Ok, I understand that there are all kinds of confusions in the world, but that individual also has to respect the rights and personal space of all of the young girls who are in the locker room.
Several years ago, our state legislators passed a law saying that the history books should be changed so that students would know which leaders in history were gay. I disagree. A leader is a leader because they are a leader, not because of their sexual preference.
People can express their personal sexual orientations (within the law). I don't think that the history books should be changed to identify who had what sexual orientation. Does a 3rd grader really need to know that some leader was gay or straight or neither?
Or, rather than spending an additional $250,000 per school to add that bathroom, make arrangement for student to use faculty bathroom or something. I suspect that there aren't really that many cases of gender confusion to require every school to do something other than make accommodations available.
When need is identified.
