DSI acquitted on obscenity charges!
Who? What? Where?
Why would this story make the front cover of the then fledgling gay newspaper, The Advocate, in September 1967?
The 1960s may have been swinging and sexually liberating for some heterosexual segments of the population (were there any openly gay hippies?), but a gay person could still get arrested for kissing a member of the same sex in public, could not join the military (which could be a way to avoid the draft, then going on because of the Vietnam War), and could be fired from a job because of his/her orientation.
