Well, Pat died of AIDS back when it was a certain death sentence (early '80s). But it was never proven that he was a queer. And the guy ran a crew up in Yonkers. Whether he was gay or not he was no punk, that much I remember.

And you have to keep in mind that Rita Gigante is a fucking kook. To people like her everyone is gay to some degree. It helps them sleep at night. Of course it's all bullshit .
