A horrifying child pornography and molestation scandal involving a high profile San Francisco gay rights activist has rocked the city’s political scene; compounding the nightmare, the scandal broke at the worst possible moment, the day after San Francisco’s Pride Parade, which was the culmination of a month-long public relations blitz promoting LGBT equality. The publicity efforts of thousands of people were negated and even reversed by the actions of one man.
The San Francisco Examiner, SFWeekly, the San Francisco Chronicle and various LGBT blogs have all published exposés in the last few hours, each with exclusive information.
WARNING: The following descriptions may be too upsetting for some readers. Proceed with caution.
S.F. Chronicle:
S.F. gay rights advocate arrested over child porn
San Francisco police have arrested veteran gay rights advocate Larry Brinkin in connection with felony possession of child pornography.
Brinkin, 66, who worked for the San Francisco Human Rights Commission before his retirement in 2010, was taken into custody Friday night. He spent the night in jail before he was released on bail, according to a spokeswoman for the sheriff’s department.
The district attorney’s office will decide Tuesday whether to file charges. “We’re still reviewing the case,” district attorney’s spokeswoman Stephanie Ong Stillman said Monday.
Police say that Brinkin had pornographic images, some that appear to show children as young as 1 and 2 or 3 years old being sodomized and performing oral sex on adult men, in e-mail attachments linked to his account, according to a search warrant served by San Francisco police.
Representatives of America Online contacted authorities after coming across e-mail attachments from one of its subscriber’s accounts containing what they believed to be child pornography.
The Los Angeles Police Department, which was assigned to the case, traced the IP address associated with the account, Zack3737@aol.com, to Brinkin, a San Francisco resident, according to court records. Los Angeles police forwarded the case to San Francisco police.
San Francisco investigators say the account was registered to Brinkin, and that he paid for the e-mail service with his credit card.
Police provided two examples of e-mail messages from last year in which Zack3737 provides disturbing descriptions of the exploitive sexual acts.
The e-mail account also is linked to Yahoo discussion groups on sexual exploitation of young boys and girls, according to the search warrant.
The SFWeekly has more extremely nauseating details:
Larry Brinkin, S.F. Gay Rights Icon, Arrested on Child Porn Charges
Police say they arrested 66-year-old Larry Brinkin, the high-profile gay activist, on possession of child pornography on Friday night.
…
According to the search warrant, SFPD acted after receiving a tip from the Los Angeles Police Department, which obtained from AOL an e-mail exchange between a Los Angeles user and zack3737@aol.com. Police say they linked the AOL address to Brinkin’s IP address; he is owner of the account and paid for AOL service with his credit card.
The warrant claims these e-mails contained images of children as young as perhaps a year old being sodomized by and performing oral sex on adult men. Zack3737@aol.com — whom the police allege is Brinkin — provided graphic commentary on the photos of interracial adult-child sex. Comments included “I loved especially the nigger 2 year old getting nailed. Hope you’ll continue so I can see what the little blond bitch is going to get. White Power! White Supremacy! White Dick Rules!”
The AOL e-mail account was also linked to Yahoo! Groups centering around discussions of child porn, according to the search warrant. Investigators say they additionally found e-mails sent from Brinkin’s now-defunct city e-mail account to zack3737@aol.com.
The San Francisco Examiner provides more details about his major role in the gay rights movement:
Child porn arrest of gay rights activist stuns San Francisco:
Larry Brinkin, the iconic San Francisco gay activist who brought the nations first domestic partnership lawsuit in 1982, was arrested Friday on charges of possession and distribution of child pornography, police said.
…Brinkin, who has a longtime partner and a teenage son, retired in 2010 after working for 22 years with the San Francisco Human Rights Commission.
In 1982, he was the first to use the phrase domestic partner in a lawsuit he filed against his then-employer Southern Pacific Railway. He claimed he was denied three days bereavement leave given to married employees after the loss of his partner of 11 years. Brinkin lost the case, which city officials said laid the foundation for marriage equality.
As a city employee, Brinkin helped implement and enforce the landmark San Francisco Equal Benefits Ordinance of 1997, the first in the U.S. to mandate that employers provide equal coverage for domestic partners. He also developed laws protecting against discrimination based on gender identity or a persons height and weight.
Upon his retirement, Dufty introduced a Board of Supervisors resolution declaring the first seven days of February 2010 Larry Brinkin Week in honor of his advocacy.
Brinkin remains president of the board of directors for the California Association of Human Relations Organizations.
The timing could not have been worse for the gay community; news of the scandal began to leak out just as “Pride Week” concluded with San Francisco’s world famous Pride Parade on Sunday. Ironically, Brinkin himself was an Honorary Grand Marshall in previous Pride Parades, as documented on various archived Web pages of SFPride’s own site.
Though he is not well-known to the general public, Brinkin is considered a major historical figure within the gay rights activist community; more details about his career and his accolades can be found in this Bay Times article from 2010.
The Lez Get Real blog was first out of the gate trying to find some innocent explanation for the charges:
There have been incidents where people have been arrested for possessing child pornography on their computer that turned out to be malware using the computer to launder the images. This can often be difficult for people to prove, however.
Do not be surprised that anti-LGBT organizations will use this arrest against the Community; however, it is important to remember that most pedophiles identify as straight, and there are many straight people who have been arrested, charged, and convicted for possession of child pornography.
Brinkin has not yet been convicted of anything, so he is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty. But at first glance the evidence against him seems quite strong. If he plans to fight the charges, the “malware” or “it wasn’t me” defenses would be very difficult to prove.
Update I:
JammieWearingFools has video of Brinkins.
Update II:
I agree with some of the commenters that the white supremacy talk seemed “too bad to be true,” but since it was reported in reliable papers and was apparently released by the SF Police Department, it was an essential part of the story that couldn’t be skipped.
But if it is the case that it is a “set up,” then it must have been the police doing the setting up. Why, otherwise, would they release to the media the contents of an email that they could not confirm? If this turns out to be completely fabricated by the police, then that itself would become a major scandal.
But notice that there is evidence that years ago he was already using his official city-issued email account to exchange child porn. Did a hacker hack a completely different account of his as well, and somehow backdate it? Doubtful. So the likelihood that he exchanged child porn seems pretty high. If so, that is a serious enough charge — what purpose would there be to add on a spurious extra layer of racism? There’d be no real reason to do that, whether it was the police or some stalker out to get Brinkin. I guess more will be revealed as the case progresses.
Here’s an alternate theory: Perhaps he wasn’t really a racist, but it was a role he assumed in sexual role-playing games.
Update III:
Strangely, last night this was briefly the top story on all the local papers, but by this morning it was hard to even find any more: The SF Chronicle has now buried it as the very last headline in the “More News” section, and the SF Examiner and SFWeekly have noticeably downgraded its page placement as well. Could be that this will blow over after all. Remember that even some inconvenient facts about Harvey Milk were successfully ignored.
Update IV:
If the email account “zack3737@aol.com” really is Brinkin’s email account, then he’s going to have an extremely tough time trying to claim malware or hacking as his defense; turns out that “zack3737@aol.com” has a long history of taboo-violating posts dating back for years, easily findable through a Google search.
A couple examples:
31 Thu April 19 2001 – 01:44:04
Fullname: zack
Email: zack3737@aol.com
Are you a fan of rape stories?: Yes
Do you ever feel guilt about liking rape stories?: No
zack3737@aol.com
Published: 25-8-2011very hot story. especially love the experienced brutal rapists offering to beat and rape the little cunts. hope you’ll do more — younger and rougher the better.
…you get the idea.
Brinkin will have to prove in court that he has never been associated with “zack3737@aol.com,” otherwise it will be hard to explain away the account’s long history with violent sexual fantasies about children.
Update V:
Where’s the concern about how antics (and crimes) of gay activists threaten to tarnish public perception of gay community?
No, most gay people don’t indulge in child pornography. This behavior is not representative of our community. But, given Mr. Brinkin’s prominence, you’d think our leaders would be quick to criticize his actions.
…
Gay leaders should join [] us in asking that the City of San Francisco remove Mr. Brinkin’s name from “Larry Brinkin Week.”
What this man is alleged to have done is far more offensive (far, far, far more offensive) than what Sarah Palin’s daughter once said. But, I could find nothing about it on HRC’s web-page. Or NGLTF’s. Or GLAAD’s.
This is why Kevin Jennings, Obama’s safe-schools czar, would’ve been lynched if he’d come within 500 miles of Happy Valley during the Sandusky affair to speak about how to make a school “safe.”
Come up with all the self-serving definitions that “prove” Sandusky is actually straight and pig-lipstick you want to – it is what it is.
Truly sad and sickening. I was going to say that I hope people do not paint the entire gay community with a broad brush, then I saw how the writer at the “Lez Get Real” blog took the low road. Disgusting, evil people can potentially come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and identities. This is about the acts of one seriously disturbed individual, not of the entire gay community.
I feel the same about the Catholic priest molesters. They are disturbed individuals, not representative of the entire Church.
Re: Priests: Connect the dots..those priests molested post puberty boys therefore those priest were gay priests.. Sandusky fits the same narrative. We are going to find this to be the norm in many cases, soon the truth will prevail, which is the real reason for pushing gay straight alliances.
Most child molesting is done by straight adult men to little girls.
No, homosexuals have a much higher incident of pedophilia.
The Catholic priests were raping little boys, not girls. That was homosexual rape.
And that’s the left! Excusing deviant behavior with MORE deviant behavior.
Did you know that most little girl child rapes occur from immigrant men from Asia, Africa, Middle East and South America? Apparently, child rape is only a no-no in the west.
Now defend THAT sacred cow!
Got any evidence from a trustworthy source to back up your assertion?
The entire gay community embraced this guy (figuratively). Some of the members of this community must’ve known. Wicked is as wicked does.
“The entire gay community embraced this guy (figuratively). Some of the members of this community must’ve known.”
I’d never heard of him before this story, but then again I’m not from San Francisco. I’m not sure how widely known he was in the SF gay community before this news broke, but AFAIK he’s not a lionized, iconic, widely-embraced “hero” like Harry Hay. (In comparing the cases, note that the allegations against Hay were [slightly] less horrible than the ones against Brinkin — Hay was essentially an apologist for NAMBLA but there’s no evidence that he personally participated in molesting children or in the distribution of kiddie porn. So it’s like the difference between saying “Poor old Stalin has been unfairly slandered by fanatical anti-Communists,” and actually having been an agent on on Stalin’s payroll, putting bullets through the heads of Soviet dissidents. On the other hand, if Hay’s offense was not quite as bad as Brinkin’s, Hay’s fame is much greater and his reputation much loftier.)
As to whether “some of the members of the gay community must’ve known” — well, without doubt some gay men knew “Zack3737″ and were anonymously trading child-rape photos with him under their own pseudonyms. Whether anyone who knew Larry Brinkin by name was aware of his taste in porn is a separate question. In other words, it’s not fair jumping to conclusions about Brinkin’s personal associates — the vast majority of whom probably had zero idea what he was into (it’s possible that some suspected and gave it a wink and a nod, and that some totally knew and were even actively trading with Brinkin).
It’s also worth noting that the crimes were originally discovered by the L.A. police, not the S.F. police: Brinkin was part of an Internet “community” of kiddie-rape porn, and that community transcends geographical boundaries. It’s quite likley that most of his online colleagues were spread out across the country and world, and they were completely separate from his geography-based local San Francisco gay community colleagues. So it might indeed be true that none of his local friends and fans knew anything about his predelictions.
More concerning to me — and the main reason why kiddie porn is so evil to most people — is that these photos didn’t magically appear by themselves: Some child somewhere had to be raped in order for the photo to be made. In other words, what makes photos of children in sexual situations so shocking in not so much that they are “immoral” to view, but rather than they are irrefutable evidence of an even worse crime having been committed. So that somewhere, someone (or many someones) is raping children to provide entertainment for Larry Brinkin and his ilk.
And since the ethos of “sharing” kiddie porn is that each person is expected to supply their own contribution to the trading community (partly so that you aren’t seen as a freeloader, and partly to prove that you’re not a cop), there is always a strong suspicion among law enforcement and the general public that anyone who shares kiddie porn also is highly likely to have produced kiddie porn. Hence the near universal hatred of kiddie porn “consumers.”
This may be an act of one evil and disturbed individual however this individual belongs to a Protected Class; under the law all members of this Community are protected and because its members a proteted under the law they can commit all sorts of acts of evil.
Under our laws, to speak against this individual’s Community (in this individual’s case his community is Homosexual) is considered a Hate Crime.
How can the law prosecute a child pornographer/molester homosexual when, by law, homosexual is established as Protected Class?
I agree, they do intertwine themselves with groupthink. However, me personally, I believe we are all individuals and should be judged and punished as individuals rather than collectively. I know, that way of thinking does not jive with groupthink and protected classes, nevertheless that is my viewpoint (if I was not using this perpective to defend gays I am sure I would be smeared as SEXIST! RACIST! HOMOPHOBIC!, because God knows we are not allowed to think outside the collective groupthink box. But whatever, the truth is the truth). If other people were involved in the crime they too should be held accountable, but not the entire gay community.
Lez Get Real says, “[T]here are many straight people who have been arrested, charged, and convicted for possession of child pornography.” No doubt. And there are probably anywhere from 10 to 30 times as many straights as there are homosexuals.
Bottom line, the majority of America is tired of disgusting half-naked gay pride parades in our cities.
We’re tired of having “gay culture” pushed down our throats.
Keep pushing this crap on regular folks who frankly don’t care about what sexuality one is so long as they are not violating religious liberty and trying to may being gay the majority. It is not, and never will be.
The best way to created resentment and indeed hatred is to have gays and gay “rights” (what rights are those other than every American?) continue exactly what they are doing.
2-3% as compared to 97%-98%? Is there a mathematician in the audience?
So much for the notion that the GLBT community is somehow immune from this kind of crime. Now, the question is how much serious coverage will this get. If it were the Catholic Church it would be plastered everywhere. But when it comes from the public schools or the GLBT community, fuggedaboudit.
What planet do you live on? School systems are extremely aggressive about investigating even a hint of sexual misconduct. The Catholic Church has been mainly concerned about cya in the face of pedophilic clergy. Apparently, they have astroturfers in the blogosphere willing to step up too. And you can’t be serious that there isn’t a gay/pedophile stereotype in the public imagination.
The gay community’s dilemma is confronting the problem of pedophilia within its ranks when that problem has been used as justification for hating all gays. It’s a nasty situation, but gay advocates are going to have to do better than circle the wagons when these issues come up.
A child is far more likely to be raped by a schoolteacher than a priest, and public schools don’t have the Seal of Confession impeding investigations. If a priest confessed to another priest or to his bishop that he had raped a child, that priest (or bishop) is forbidden under pain of automatic excommunication from revealing this matter to the police or anyone else. The same prohibition applies if you confessed to him that you committed a murder, or that you cheated on your spouse, or any other sin you may have committed. Information obtained in the Confessional cannot be used to the detriment of the penitent in any way, nor can the priest order the penitent to confess his/her sins publicly; if the penitent reveals his/her sins to anyone other than the priest, it must be done of the penitent’s own free will, not under duress from the priest’s instructions.
22 years in a “Human Rights Commission” — and read what he wrote.
End the farce now.
The liberal Rainbow Coalition is coming close to being a definition of failure and degradation of law and culture. Whether it’s practically institutionalized perversion or mitigation of law-breakers of the right skin color, reducing bullying to a gay not human experience or maintaining racial institutions it’s increasingly sad and even sick.
The Left does not consider children, in the womb or out, as humans. There is no conflict here. Try to keep up.
I dunno guys…
Those “white power” quotes sound fake to me, esp. considering the source.
I’ve literally lived with guys like Larry for over ten years, in Toronto’s Boystown. They are a lot of things, but white supremacists??? Engh.
I’m sorry, but here in Canada, we have “authorities” (in, amusingly, our “Human Rights Commissions) who use fake white power quotes on the web to smear people they don’t like.
I know because I (and my husband) are being sued for blogging about the phenomenon.
(The “Arnie” in Ezra Levant’s post below is my spouse…)
http://ezralevant.com/2010/11/richard-warman-goes-after-yet.html
Just my 2 cents.
Ever heard of Ernst Rohm?
My thoughts exactly. The supposed quote provided in the article sounds too bad to be true. Not even like a real attempt to smear the guy – just a bad job of vandalism. I’ll withold judgement until more information comes out.
Possibly it is a setup. However, remember that Rohm was both an open homosexual (along with others in the Brownshirts) and also a proud racial supremecist who brawled alongside Hitler from the very beginning in the early ’30s.
My point in bring up Rohm was that being homosexual doesn’t make it any less likely someone is a racist (not that Kathy said or implied that it does). They’re leftists first and foremost, and if there’s one thing ALL leftists have in common, it’s maintaining power and attention by artificially categorizing other humans by skin color, financial status, who or what they screw, etc. If anything, they hide their true racial hatreds and other depravities until they either can’t maintain the facade anymore or they feel safely empowered enough to come all the way out with it.
I’m pretty skeptical about the white racism spin also. Sounds more like a typical Alinski tactic to deflect attention from an ally of the communists which politically important. Axelrod could have been the engineer.
I cannot imagine that any child will be given justice in the city of San Francisco. How many years do you think that the “homosexual lifestyle” has merely been a cover for systematic pedophilia? More than 5?
“Sounds more like a typical Alinski tactic to deflect attention from an ally of the communists which politically important. Axelrod could have been the engineer.”
I’m still having trouble understanding what would be the point of leftists engineering the racism angle. I don’t see how it would distract from the homosexual pedophile angle, which is foremost and which almost all heterosexuals (it’s safe to guess) assume has always been, to some degree, true of most homosexuals.
Not sure I follow you. Is someone, while watching a small child being abused, really going to be that sensitive about making racist comments? If you are watching child abuse videos and making racist statements, making racist statements is the least serious of your moral, personal and psychological problems.
I thought the same thing about the white supremacist quotes. Also, it is quite frightening that someone could potentially hijack your IP address and send stuff like that. Really, it could happen to anyone. This guy might be a disgustinting perv, but considering his high profile he is also a likely target for smearing.
Except that he had another email address that was accessing kiddie porn. Highly doubtful that both of his addresses were hacked into.
I’m tired of living with the deviants in our midst. I’m from California and the SF gay pride parade is the most disgusting amoral display I’ve ever seen – and they WANT you to come and bring your children. Sick!
I’m tired of them trying to normalize it. I’m tired of them indoctrinating children that they should try it. I’m tired of being muzzled by the PC crowd about these disgusting people.
I don’t care what these people do, but I won’t hold with them involving children, using my tax money and I will NOT celebrate their damned lifestyle.
If it weren’t so repugnant, the pc leftist would attempt to normalize some of what the Nazis did in WWII. Jews were considered a sub-human species so it didn’t matter how horrible the act was. I’m not equating the two but the root is leftist all the way which always leads to horrible acts of degeneration
Not sympathizing with the SFP’s (sexually f**ked up People) aka LGBT, but the Nazi’s were right wing
No tmoney, the facists were not right wing. That is just the bs that’s been fed for the last 50 years.
Remember, Nazi stands for National SOCIALIST Party. Socialism is leftwing. Fascism is leftwing. It is slightly to the right of Communism, but it is still in the left wing. Far right wing is no government and anarchy. Left wing is government control. Fascism is the gov’t telling the private companies what to do. There is still technically private ownership, but it is totally gov’t controlled. Communism is total gov’t control and ownership of private companies. They are very similar.
Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn’t homosexuality and promiscuity encouraged in some Nazi ranks to discourage lasting intimate bonds to prevent distraction from the party and ensure loyalty to the cause. I am not suggesting that provides evidence to smear gay individuals as Nazis, just responding to the left right blah blah blah Nazi statement above.
All of that changed in 1934.
The “Brownshirts” (Sturmabteilung) were essentially the Nazi’s private army prior to Hitler’s ascension to the Chancellorship. The Sturmabteilung leader, Ernst Röhm, was gay, as were many of his lieutenants, and when the Nazis proposed allowing Rohm to subsume the official German Army into the Sturmabteilung, The Army leadership objected because: “The army officer corps viewed the SA as a brawling mob of undisciplined street fighters and were also concerned by the pervasiveness of homosexuality and “corrupt morals” within the ranks of the SA.”
Hitler needed to go mainstream so in 1934 he had Rohm and the other homosexual leaders executed in order to make the Nazi army seem respectable. After that, the public position of the Nazi Party was to encourage heterosexual procreation (to make for cannon fodder for the war effort, mostly).
Here’s a short 13 minute video so you can understand the political spectrum, http://www.wimp.com/thegovernment/
I feel the same way. I’m very upset about homosexuals demanding to be in close contract with our children in arenas such as educating, scouting, etc. Just leave us alone. Please, apparently, there is something twisted in how homosexuals relate sexually to the world, please stop demanding that our most vunerable children be exposed to this risk in an effort to make homosexuals feel more normal and accepted. As a parent, my job is to protect my children, why expose my children to an even higher risk that what they’re already exposed too?
Lolly, now you know why they want you to bring your children.
Them and the child traffickers and pimps. If they can use the schools to groom and sexualize young children, then all the easier the road to pedastery and prostitution. They will have them so brainwashed that they will be out in the streets protesting for their right to be sexually exploited (I mean to have careers as sex workers) and to have an abortion mandated by their pimps. This is an opportunity to speak out against the sexualization of children in public schools. Get the pervs away from the sex ed curriculum. I am sure even most respectable gays are against sexualization of children.
Only serves to confirm what, before the days of PC, used to be common knowledge.
I don’t have a problem with gays, or even if my child had a gay teacher, as long as they are not teaching them sex ed or injecting their personal dogma into the coursework.
That was supposed to be a response to Lolly.
The timing could not have been worse for the gay community
Timing? Worse?
You, Zombie, of all people given your photographs of these peoples’ behavior at their “pride” events should have at least a jaded opinion of San Francisco’s “gay community“.
WTF?
Good question. This would only count as “worst possible moment” for homosexuals if it was reported nationally. Look for it to be buried instead.
The homosexual movement has gotten a lot of mileage out of denying and repudiating NAMBLA and “chicken hawks.” And as much as I find homosexuality repellant, I do believe there are homosexuals who find pedophilia repellant and evil and I applaud them for it.
However, history shows that where there’s acceptance of open homosexuality, sooner or later homosexual pedophilia follows and they can hide it only so long. This is a case in point.
Curse you Jerry Sandusky. Because of you people are looking.
Or
My account was hacked.
Or
Never mind
The existence of (yeah, the very need for) a huge PR campaign is, shall I say, “interesting.”
It seems to imply that the LGBT choice is not self-evidently wholesome, righteous and desirable, in and of itself. If it were, there would be no need for promotion.
/imho
– didn’t read it in the chronic Comical.
Brinkin has not yet been convicted of anything, so he remains innocent until proven guilty.
Pedantic pet peeve. Brinkin isn’t actually innocent until proven guilty, you know. He is presumed (by the courts) to be innocent until proven guilty. His actual guilt or innocence is not dependent on legal presumptions or conclusions.
You are correct — I used the common-but-sloppy way of formulating the aphorism. I have now updated the sentence is include the phrase “presumed to be.”
I found out my brother was gay when he lay slowly dying of aids. For what it is worth I will share a couple of things he told me. I realize this is one man’s opinions but as a deathbed testimony I believe it has some value.
He told me he thought all male gays were attracted to children (he was) and the only things that restrain the many was the public revulsion and the severe penalties. He thought as the gay lifestyle became more accepted and common in our society that the use and abuse of children would rise expotentially.
Sorry, dude, not true. For this gay man, a pre-pubescent boy is even less appealing than a female. To say nothing of the inherent creepiness of sex with a child or, God forbid, an infant.
This may in fact be a setup. If commentor #5, blogger Kathy Shaidle, –who is no friend of gays, believe me–, wonders about the weird White supremacy talk, there might be something to that.
I too admit that the white supremacy talk seemed “too bad to be true,” but since it was reported in reliable papers and was apparently released by the SF Police Department, it was an essential part of the story that couldn’t be skipped.
But if it is the case that it is a “set up,” then it must have been the police doing the setting up. Why, otherwise, would they release to the media the contents of an email that they could not confirm? If this turns out to be completely fabricated by the police, then that itself would become a major scandal.
But pay attention to the details — they apparently have evidence that year ago he was already using his official city-issued email account to exchange child porn. I seriously doubt a hacker would have the ability to hack a completely different account of his and somehow backdate it. So the likelihood that he access child porn seems pretty high. If so, that is a serious enough charge — what purpose would there be to add on a spurious extra layer of racism? There’d be no real reason to do that, whether it was the police or some stalker out to get Brinkin.
Here’s an alternate theory: He wasn’t really a racist, but it was a role he assumed in sexual role-playing games. I mean, if some people can play the part of a dungeon torturer in sex games, why not a racist?
“…it was a role he assumed in sexual role-playing….”
That would be my guess. There are, for example, S&M practitioners who use Nazi costumes in their games, not to mention those playing Caligula, Sultan-and-harem, rapist and victim, etc., etc. Few of the people doing this would accept or condone in real life the power structures they like to play at.
Also, bear in mind that forbidden fruit has always had a special appeal. But how can you add transgressive spice to a sexual menu when there is almost nothing left that is forbidden? When calling someone a c***sucker or motherf***er is routine, maybe you have to say n****r to get a naughty thrill.
Maybe he really was a nasty piece of work, and “human rights” activist was the role he played at?
Seriously, why is it necessary to search so hard for excuses for this? Let the case play out; if the evidence is bunk, it’ll be revealed as such. But I doubt the LAPD would have moved against someone as politically connected without extreme care.
When one’s sexual thrills rely on forbidden fruit and ever seeking new and excting sexual stimulation, the end game can be seen in the horrific acts commited by Canadian psycho Luca Magnotta.
Definitely not questioning your reporting or that of the papers you quote. I just get a “Where the hell did THAT come from?” feeling from the racist language. Maybe it just shows how thoroughly the left have co-opted everything about civil rights. However, I can say that I know at least a couple of gay men who are not fond of black people and have no problem saying so in private. Nothing nearly as vile as Brinkin’s alleged comments, but not exactly charitable, either. Of course, they’ve lived in the DC area all their lives. Maybe things are different in San Francisco.
“they apparently have evidence that year ago he was already using his official city-issued email account to exchange child porn.”
From what I read, they have evidence that he emailed Zack3737. Or at least that his official account emailed Zack3737, but I assume it was him using his official account.
Immorality is immorality is immorality.
Immorality against or directed toward the indoctrinating children is the worse sort of immorality. Look, homosexuality is already twisted, it is already a symptom that something is wrong, leave the kids alone. Keep them, protect them from this.
SF Examiner blog is showing (0)Comments on this story. Must be way too common in SF to generate any interest.
In the civic view, it is a vested interest of the state to have this standard for marriage, since a father and a mother around will produce the healthiest next generation for the state.
In the spiritual view, homosexuals assert
their personal desires (lusts) are superior to the intent of God.
In an evolutionary view, homosexuality would not work through natural selection. It removes humanity in one generation, since the entire history of humanity is dependent on heterosexual unions. The human genome project has shown there is virtually no difference between homosexual and heterosexual genes.
Thus in both biological or spiritual views, homosexuality is a mental disorder or sin, a point of agreement between the secular and religious. Yet no one talks about this.
There are all sorts of people with emotional and mental problems, but no one seems to think t hey should be
the ones reordering society. But the homosexuals want to reorder society.
As Christians, we don’t want to abandon them to their mental disorders,but they insist on doing so.
The average age of death for gays is 44 years excluding AIDS. If you include AIDS, it drops to 42. Thus AIDS is not even a significant cause of mortality.
Homosexual behavior is far more deadly than cigarette smoking.
Homosexual behavior is an integral part of disease transmission; >70% of all sexual diseases in heterosexuals are traced back a homosexual vector.
Danish studies find the average gay “marriage” lasts 1.5 years. Of the small percentage that last more than 5 years, all included provisions for multiple partners.
Gay marriage seems to be a mechanism to obtain access to social status and benefits such as the obviously critical health care that is the center-piece of homosexual life.
People can “declare their love” when they want but the POINT of MARRIAGE as far as the state is to create an obligation and the social atmosphere needed to properly raise the future generation. The state’s interest. Gay
marriage is pretty irrelevant to everyone else.
It seems like gays know this and want to create a society in which they cannot be challenged for their behavior. But I don’t see any accomodation by society making them happy because their problem is internal and linked to
disordered sexual impulses.
The liberal gay activists won’t stop in their campaign to try to normalize homosexual behavior. First they tried the gay pride parade, showing near naked men displaying their pornography to young children, wearing cowboy
hats and humiliating the pride and honor and dignity of real cowboys. Then they try through the teacher’s unions to force us to learn gay history,instead of just “history”, basing our reverence of historical figures on their merit, not on their color of skin or sexual orientation.
Here is the history of how this came to be: As pornography was mainstreamed, leftists took over our education system, forcing kids to watch how a condom is put on, how gays have sex, what oral and anal sexis, all based on “science.” Well this “scientific evidence” that children
are sexual from day one, comes from the sexual psychopath ALfred Kinsey, who’s sexual experiments on children was responsible for the sexual revolution, and the “normalization” of deviant sexual behavior. (See the
Kinsey Syndrome on youtube)
Now, the artists try this tactic to “normalize” it. FAct is, it will NEVER be normalized in most people’s minds, for our moral instincts, something that can’t be described, tell people it is unintended, except those abused, sadly. But the gay lobby keep trying to cram their world view down
everyone else’s throats. It is known that homosexual marriages have more divorces, more promiscuity, and expose children to more pornography and sexuality, before they even care about what it is. Liberal gay activists whole identity is centered on who they have sex with. What happened to decency? Gay men also have high rates
of disease and early death.
In order to raise a healthy next generation , we should hold up the standard of traditional marriage, between a mother and a father. Gays have rights already-civil unions, etc. But marriage is an institution, and symbolizes the nuclear family. If we don’t uphold this standard, and let
the left to continue to impose their world views on the outside world to mirror their inner turmoil (many were abused as children), then it is a slippery slope. In Canada, polygamists are calling for “the right to marry”, along with the pedophiles, and there are cases where people want
to marry their animals. There is one standard that God created for us,for a man and a women to be joined to God in a holy trinity, and do what he
asks us to do. And that is traditional marriage.
Actually there are two standards: faithful heterosexual marriage as long as you both shall live, or perfect celibacy. When you are young, you choose which path to pursue, and are called to celibacy until you marry. When your spouse dies, you are free to choose whether to remarry or live in perfect celibacy for the rest of your life (unless, of course, you have already sworn to live in perfect celibacy upon the death of your spouse). The status of a widow(er) is the same as a single person.
Larry Brinkin wouldn’t even be facing a felony charge for this crime in California if Senator Mark Leno (D-San Francisco) had his way back in 2006. Republicans were fighting to increase the penalty for possession of child pornography from a misdemeanor to a felony, and Leno fought it. Leno, the state’s first openly gay legislator, was protecting men like Brinkin. I’m sure the two were friends, given Brinkin’s profile as an activist in SF and Leno’s political activities (former SF City Councilman). Mark Leno, we didn’t forget who’s side you were on in the fight against child sexual abuse. http://www.flashreport.org/special-reports0b.php?faID=2006012702531650
“Update III:
Strangely, last night this was briefly the top story on all the local papers, but by this morning it was hard to even find any more: The SF Chronicle has now buried it as the very last headline in the “More News” section, and the SF Examiner and SFWeekly have noticeably downgraded its page placement as well.”
Ta-da.
Brinkin arrested Friday, June 22.
Brinkin released on bail Saturday, June 23
SF Gay Pride Parade Sunday, June 24.
Story breaks Monday, June 25.
Question: Did the SF media outlets–who likely had the basic information by Saturday, at the latest–hold the story until Monday so it wouldn’t cast a pall ovet the GPP?
Yes.
I’d like to know if the SF police kept things quiet as well.
He is, after all, a member of a protected class.
Any member of a gym of fitness center can relate to having been propositioned in either lockerrooms by trolling gay members. Happens with alarming frequency and has been swept under the carpet by these organizations. More and more all Gay community members actively solicit and seek any and all opportunities in both their “closed circles” or general population.
This report is proof positive of this behavour. Especially as concerns the general population and underage children. These “sexual predators” must be dealt with in a firm and legal manner. Gay Pride is nothing more than disgusting, aberrant behaviour that must be stopped and wiped from the earth.
Our Creator saw this unfolding in Sodom and banished all its citizens, innocent and guilty, to eternal perdition…the same should happen to Gay Pride. God Bless America. Amen.
“Any member of a gym of fitness center can relate to having been propositioned in either lockerrooms by trolling gay members.”
Umm, that’s because they’re men. I can assure you that as a woman I’ve never been propositioned by a lesbian in the locker room at the gym. I’ve belonged to many gyms with very diverse memberships so my observation is not just a one off thing. However, I have been propositioned by men pretty much everywhere. What you are complaining about is not gay behavior but male behavior. Well, in this instance gay male behavior.
And yes I’m quite aware that not all men proposition people in inappropriate places. My comment is not meant to be male bashing but to point out a pretty obvious truth of human nature.
Just so you know SfGate routinely does what they did with this story. If the story reflects badly on one of their favored pols or interest groups they put it up on their web page late at night or late Saturday afternoon, dumping it mid morning the next day. If on the other hand the story is about Sarah Palins gardeners nephews cat doing #2 on the neighbors lawn it’ll be on the front page for three days.
Problem for SFGate with this story, however, is that it is now the “Most Viewed” and “Most commented” article of the day, so they’re having difficulties keeping it off the front page.
He is a deviant living a deviant lifestyle. The homosexual community doesn’t care if he’s a pedophile. NAMBLA a big part of the 70′s ‘gay rights’ movement. They were only kicked to the curb when the ‘gay community’ realized NAMBLA wasn’t going to play well, ever, in the US. They didn’t have any issues with the actual acts that NAMBLA advocated, and still advocates. Harry Hay, a gay advocate is also a NAMBLA founder.
The gay rights community isn’t going to do more than shrug at their hero’s pedophile activity.
It’s just a deviation from a deviation. They’ll start selling NAMBLA soon.
I was not familiar with NAMBLA, but after reading this I looked it up, and it made me think of an article I recently read written by a Queen at a blog called “Hedda Lettuce” (forgive me, I do not have a good copy and paste mechanism at the moment so I do not have the link). Anyways, the way he described himself being on display during the Pride parade as a young gay and the negative feelings it evoked in him, made me think perhaps that is what the parade is about. Out in the open, these boys, like animals on display are a live porn show for the pederasts in the crowd. Does NAMBLA have roots in the Pride movement? As evidenced by Hedda Lettuce’s blog post, not all gays are into the Pride parade.
NAMBLA was founded in 1977, and for the first few years was accepted into the mainstream of the gay rights movement by the larger well-known gay groups. But starting in the early-mid ’80s, a small (but quickly growing) number of gay groups wisely thought that NAMBLA’s presence was detrimental to the cause, and by 1986 there was a divisive scandal over whether to continue allowing NAMBLA to march in Gay Pride parades. Harry Hay (the “hero” of Obama’s Safe Schools Czar) and Allen Ginsberg (among man others) defended NAMBLA’s right to be a part of the gay liberation movement, but the pragmatic voices eventually won out, and by the mid-’90s NAMBLA had become outcasts by the gay mainstream, even their very name taboo in published works. Since that time, NAMBLA has gone underground.
When NAMBLA was first founded, it seemed for a brief moment that the time was ripe for complete sexual “liberation” — but the country took a sudden rightward turn in 1980 with the election of Reagan and the growing influence of social conservatives, and it was decided that NAMBLA had better crawl back into its shell. Until, perhaps, later, when circumstances are more favorable. Their halcyon days of mainstream acceptance (or at least tolerance) were 1977-1982, and they’ve been in retreat ever since
Let’s not be too hasty in passing judgement.
Perhaps this man suffers from the affliction that Harvey Milk endured.He may have eaten too many twinks.
Bada-bing!
Perhaps Brinkin’s trial strategy will be forever remembered as “The Twink Defense.”
Hate to make light of tragic situations, past and present, but you drove me to it! So my tasteless humor is your fault.
I am wondering how many of these adults that are gay were not subject to hideous acts like this. How many of gays across the globe were molested at a young age. I would venture to say a lot. I have two in laws that were molested at a young age and are gay because of it. I tend to reject that you are born that way, but I could be wrong.
When I read the quote from Zack3737@aol.com … I felt like crying. I don’t cry, I am an adult hetero male who is concerned about the welfare of children in this increasingly sick society.
Something must be done about getting these pedophiles away from children. We need some really tough action.
Who other than Bill O’Reilly is truly looking out for the kids?
The man who recently beat a pedophile to death on his property for molesting his five year old daughter … has the right idea. More and faster please.
If the allegations about Brinken prove to be true, the next question to be Repasked is: how long have members of the Lamestream known about his predilictions and activities, and how long have they been covering up?
Reporters knew for years about Bob Packwood and Brock Adams’ predilictions to molest women; female reporters knew to steer clear of close contact. But as long as they were reliable votes for the politically correct issues, the veil of secrecy remained.
Wonder if Brinken has recently done something to alienate himself from the Powers that Be…
Don’t forget that most of most of the White House press pool knew about J.F Kennedy boinking young women almost constantly while president, and yet it was never mentioned until decades later. They also failed to mention that LBJ had a habit of exposing his ding-dong to reporters, either while skinny-dipping out on his boat, or while insisting they interview him while he went to the toilet — and yet this never revealed until a tell-all biography much much later. And they also knew that FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt were both shacking up with young women “companions,” and once again — never mentioned. And if it wasn’t for Matt Drudge, no one would have ever heard the name Monica Lewinsky.
So, yeah, there is a history of covering up for liberal sexual transgressors, while going bananas over people like Jim Bakker. Double standard.
I hope the LGBT community gets over this. They will need to expose people they know to be child abusers, or their reputation will go down and down.
They won’t. A few may express shock and outrage but it’ll amount to nothing of substance. They won’t because either too many homo-pedos are powerfully connected and politically useful to The Cause, and so anything they do will warrant the Memory Hole…or the silence will demonstrate just how not-so-secretly approved pedophilia really is among their ranks.
Spare me, everyone of you perverts have a closet full of disgusting porn. That’s what you are,deal with it.
It’s amazing how liberals always revert to this tactic. Their worldview necessarily requires that their opponents are all hypocrites who are secretly immoral. To admit otherwise — that there are people in this world who really and truly do live by a moral code — would render their political beliefs philosophically untenable.
Hey David, consider this: No, our closets are not full of disgusting porn. And even if someone did own porn, there’s a universe of difference between adult porn with paid, consenting adult performers, which is completely legal and not particularly immoral (if at all, depending on your religion), versus child porn in which babies are being raped. If you can’t discern the difference, perhaps it’s time to sit down and have a deep think about life.
Not just a tactic – an article of faith. The more loudly you object to homosexuality, the more likely you are to be a closeted homosexual. The aggressive macho man is secretly a scared little child. The man who admits his fears and insecurities is braver than the one who tries to hide them.
Pseudo-Freudian, “everyone has a dark secret” nonsense to make the believer feel he’s especially wise and perceptive.
I can’t say that pornography of any sort is anything other than a soul-killer, but you do have a point: there’s a reason that child rapists and matricides are targets in prison: even felons find them disgusting.
It’s troubling that the use of a slur word, ugly as it is, seems to overshadow the actual crime of raping a child, not in this comment thread overall, but certainly among this guy’s defenders.
And among some here.
And, if this exchange is verified as a real post, how additionally depressing that the other racial/sexual slur — the one about the white female child — is taken in stride, as if using ethnic and sexual slurs against little white girls is somehow less objectionable than using them against children who aren’t white females.
To me, this seems like the triumph of an ugly racial identity politics that has real implications in the world. I wish more people would guard against it thoughtfully.
to keyesforpres: That is true. Statistics revealed by Faith2Action, reveal that paedophilia is extremely high among homosexuals, compared to heterosexuals.
Here’s a theory for you: Zack3737 is Brinkin’s lover.
I think one of the articles said that Brinkin had a live-in boyfriend. The white supremacy stuff seems “to bad to be real” only because we’re thinking of it in connection with Brinkin. Does it sound too bad for some random guy whose bullshit Brinkin was willing to put up with because the guy was hot? Depends on the guy. I can’t be the only one thinking of Oscar Wilde & Alfred Douglas here, right?
This theory explains why Brinkin paid the bill for the account , why the account’s IP traced back to Brinkin, why there was an email from Brinkin’s work account to Zack3737 (the article didn’t say that the email from his work account to Zack3737 was an exchange of kiddie porn or something innocuous), and so on. All without requiring us to believe that Brinkin was some kind of bizarre cross between Hal Turner, Harry Hay, and Ted Bundy.
On this theory, we can assume that Brinkin had only a dim idea of what his boyfriend was actually into. Perhaps he got occasional glimpses of the boyfriend’s true nature, but allowed himself to believe that his boyfriend just really liked twinky white boys or whatever. After all, if the boyfriend really was a Nazi pedophile, Brinkin would have to break up with him. And he’s *really* hot. Best not to think about it. Plus, he’s got so much other stuff to worry about, what with being a busy gay rights luminary and all. If the boyfriend made any effort at all to conceal his interests, the whole thing seems pretty reasonable.

CA State Senator Mark “Kiddie Porn King” Leno (D- Sodom by the Sea) is the author of AB #50 – (See Below Story) seeking to permit his constituents to maintain massive collections of graphic images of Homosex Boy Rape – as part of their Ephebophile / Pederast ‘lifestyle’.
This same Pederast Theme runs through the annual Frisco ‘Pride’ festival, which honors the likes of the Boy Raping Homo-Anal Coprophile Founder of NAMBLA – Frisco’s revered ‘gay-beat’ Icon Allen Ginsberg, author of the nambla anthem – whose ode to Boy Rape is found in the Hormel Meat Room of the SF Public Library.
Destroying Normal Heterosexual Marriage and Family in service of a Radical Leftist / Gender Feminist / Homosexualist Pogrom, has been a constant theme of the Misandrist Homo-Anal Coprophile widely known as the Democrat Party’s own designated (See articles attached) “Kiddie Porn King” = Mark Leno.
Thus the True Nature of Mark Leno’s Agenda was clearly seen in his authoring a bill that would have allowed his Homo-Anal Ephebophile / Pederast Constituents to keep literally Thousands of Images of Graphic Boy Rape – as a part of their ‘lifestyle’.
This Also fits in with the Separatist / Exterminationist MISANDRY of the Frisco DYKE COVEN – who the local Democrat Establishment Subsidizes with Tax Money each year – as the attached photo / articles show.
SB 1476 Is Rank – Raw – Rabid – Frothing – Hind Foot Thumping MISANDRY at its Exterminationist Worst – and thus will certainly be embraced by a Democrat Legislature truly unfit to pass gas. Shame on the rest of you – even if “Kiddie Porn King” Leno’s caucus revels in such Depraved Demented MISANDRY.

“Nick Benton’s Gay Science No. 50: Our Gay Movement’s Colossal Failure BY NICHOLAS F. BENTON 9/22/11 (Falls Church News Press)When I became a vocal gay liberation leader in San Francisco after completing graduate seminary and coming out with a bang in 1969… -
- The gay “The Age of Contagion” (my term) ran from 1972 to 1996, AIDS being phase two. It was fueled by unlimited impersonal sex, which became not only normative, but a “politically correct” imperative.
It was common for gays in urban centers to be infected with venereal disease almost monthly, compromising immune systems to provide opportunity for the HIV virus, while crippling the emotional capacity for sustainable romance.I became sharper in my arguments against all this.
I wrote against, and even picketed, Allen Ginsberg, the gay beat poet with two decent compositions to his credit, because Ginsberg bragged publicly about masturbating to images of young boys, ran a help-wanted ad in the Barb for a personal assistant, providing a physical description of the kind of boy he wanted, and
was a founding member of the North American Man-Boy Love Association (NAMBLA)…
MISANDRY – the Hatred of Men, Masculinity and Normal Heterosexuality – Pervades our society like hot air in August, and is The Tenure Track in the Pathetic Farce of Academentia.
Such Misandrists Promote a Separatist / Exterminationist Turkey Baster DYKE Agenda of “Death to the Patriarchy” in service of creating “A WORLD DEVOID OF MEN”.
No Kidding, They Use Those Words Themselves in their Legal Pleadings
Men – the Hated ‘Y-DNA BioManPigOppressor’ are to be gotten rid of (like neanderthals of old) – but First Must be De-Genderized like an animal that has been neutered. In Kalifornia the Law has Exterminated ‘Fathers’ and a Boy’s Birth Cert can now list Two Dykes and No Daddy – even though the Boy carries his Male Fathers Y-DNA.
This ‘Turkey Baster Creationism’ is an Orwellian Doublethink that is the foundation of the Abomination – Requiring the Denial of the Scientific Facts of Gender – as well as the Fact that All Reproduction is Heterosexual – Or Else.
This is Not an ‘Absent Father’ gig – But an assertion that No Man was involved in the Creation of a Boy who carries his Y-Chromosome – and the Boy’s Birth Certificate agrees with this lie.
In My Home Town of Frisco (better known as CHINO Nancy’s Sodom by the Sea) the Annual Tax Subsidized Anti Male Hate Riot makes this quite clear – although the Media Quit Reporting on it after the following articles were published – and cited elsewhere:

OR the anthology book “Lesbians Raising Sons” -
In which author Jess Wells said of the Hatred for the Designated “Little Rapists” (Baby Boys):
“the male sperm – had been poured down the sink” – To prevent the unthinkable shame of a male baby, or as Wells put it:
“It was essential that I have a girl… I was profoundly disappointed. I wept. I sobbed… it brought up in me a frightening rage at the patriarchy.”…
“I kept thinking of all the concerts from which we would be excluded, all the radical conferences at which we wouldn’t be welcome, all the women’s land on which we could never live.”
”More insidious, there is a move afoot to regulate access to sperm…”

Theodore Dalrymple Explained this scam quite clearly:
“Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate;
and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better.
When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity.
To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed.
A society of emasculated liars is easy to control.
I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”
