When the stamp was first announced, I had this to say in reply to Matt Barber:
Fact, Harvey Milk was never arrested, charged or tried for statutory rape. He took his role as a gay leader and his mission in life very seriously and I highly doubt he would have jeopardized his ability to lead by messing around with under age kids. There are no credible sources to say he did so and misrepresenting what Randy Shiltz's wrote does not make one credible. There is nothing to this but the echo effect. Basically, saying the lie loud enough and long enough to hope people believe it.
And Mr. Barber, saying it was "swept under the rug" doesn't make it true. Please show the world police reports, affidavits, and other legal documents to support your claim that Milk was "a pederast and a sexual predator." Innuendo by fellow Reich members doesn't count, ie Randy Thomasson and Daniel Flynn.

Fundamentalist Christian group American Family Association is urging members not to accept any mail postmarked with the U.S. Postal Service’s newly released Harvey Milk stamp, the first U.S. stamp to feature an openly gay elected official.
“Honoring predator Harvey Milk on a U.S. postage stamp is disturbing to say the least. Harvey Milk was a very disreputable man and used his charm and power to prey on young boys with emotional problems and drug addiction,” an AFA press release said Wednesday. “He is the last person we should be featuring on a stamp.”
