        The best answer I can think of is to approach the members
individually and inform them of their "violation" of friendship in
regards to the gay brother.  I think this will stall cause soem heart
ache on the brothers that can not accept this.  Our chapter has two
brothers that are gay and I love them both the same as I would any other
brother.  If some of my other brothers had a problem with this, I would
be deeply disappointed because of their lack of understanding in the open
policy and brotherhood in general.  Even with all of this I would not
talk to the brothers in a public forum, that puts them on the defensive
and they will have a harder time trying to adjust to the reality of APO
and life.

This is of course my own opinion.

Yours in LFS
