Towleroad reminds us that 34 years ago today San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk were assassinated. That Dan White got a slap on the wrist for the murders ("voluntary manslaughter"???) only made the whole thing more devastating -- how that jury walked around with their heads up is beyond me -- but more than three decades later it is Milk's legacy above all that lives on. "Milk" was great, but if you haven't seen the Academy Award-winning documentary "The Times of Harvey Milk," then I strongly recommend it.
