Rally for Hustler publisher Flynt triggers mixed protests
In Cincinnati a crowd of about 2,000, led by poet McKuen and attorney Bailey, rallied for Hustler publisher Larry Flynt amid debates on free speech and civil disobedience. McKuen criticized Anita Bryant, while Bailey defended the magazine and cited First Amendment rights. Flynt, appealing a prison term for obscenity, appeared saying the gathering supported human rights rather than a sexual revolution. Separately in San Francisco, a 290,000-strong March climaxed City Hall protests against Bryant's Florida gay rights campaign, with security tight after the Hillsborough slaying.
