I don't care who you are, if you are a bad cat and people know it or knew it, then you should get NOTHING. PERIOD!When did he receive his commemorative stamp, was it long after the people knew what kind of cat he was, yet it mattered not, and if so then what was all the attachment to him about ? Was it because he had power as an official to help make change for others like him, so let's hold him up at all cost because he showed that he could hold office and power in which was very enticing to those who sought to use that in order to help further their cause ? Otherwise why the attachment to Harvey Milk, was it because he was someone who gained power in the government ?He got a stamp as the first openly gay politician elected to public office, period. It's too early for Edith...give it time.
Edgar Allen Poe got a stamp long after we knew "what kind of cat he was". That's not what they were commemorated for.
