I realize I haven't posted in a long time (3 months to be exact) and while I do have some half-written posts waiting to be published, I do need to get this one out of the way.
Some of you have heard about a State Rep in Oklahoma and her homophobic remarks recently. Well, it seems that since it's an election year, homophobia is back on the attack.
From Think Progress:
The American Family Association (AFA) has joined in promoting this myth of the evil gay agenda in a new video called “They’re Coming To Your Town.” The poster advertising the DVD appears to have a menacing rainbow-like lights in background. PageOneQ summarizes the trailer for the video:
The presentation in the AFA trailer…”They’re Coming to Your Town,” tells the tale of an uncharacteristically diverse resort town’s government infiltrated by “a handful of homosexual activists” and bent to their will through the enactment of the town’s domestic partner registry on June 22, 2007.
“Watch, and learn,” says the trailer, “how to fight a well-organized gay agenda to take over the cities of America, one city at a time.”
This is funny and sad at the same time, although hardly surprising. I just don't understand how people come up with these INSANE ideas.
