Ain't That a Shame

Pat Boone, "descendant of the legendary pioneer Daniel Boone, top-selling recording artist, star of his own
hit TV series, movie star, Broadway headliner, and best-selling author," says America should be be on alert, because the hate-fueled violence we saw in Mumbai last month could happen here. And not necessarily just from militant Islamists, but also from . . . the queers.
Have you not seen the awful similarity between what happened in Mumbai and what's happening right now in our cities?
Oh, I know the homosexual "rights" demonstrations haven't reached the same level of violence, but I'm referring to the anger, the vehemence, the total disregard for law and order and the supposed rights of their fellow citizens. I'm referring to the intolerance, the hate seething in the words, faces and actions of those who didn't get their way in a democratic election, and who proclaim loudly that they will get their way, no matter what the electorate wants!
Hate is hate, no matter where it erupts. And hate, unbridled, will eventually and inevitably boil into violence.
[...]
What troubles me so deeply, and should trouble all thinking Americans, is that there is a real, unbroken line between the jihadist savagery in Mumbai and the hedonistic, irresponsible, blindly selfish goals and tactics of our homegrown sexual jihadists. Hate is hate, no matter where it erupts. And by its very nature, if it's not held in check, it will escalate into acts vile, violent and destructive.
I suppose that would explain all the recent news stories about roving gangs of homosexuals beating straight people to death because of their sexual preference.

Supporters of same-sex marriage displayed their love and tolerance when they find out that black voters overwhelmingly supporter Prop8.
Some commenters on the Dan Savage blog
here:
“My friend in NC put it best: anyone who votes for Prop 8 is a nonperson. I should bloody well think that goes double for anyone who didn't have the right to vote 80 years ago.”
“Sure, the Mormons funded the campaign. But you can't get around the fact that the demographic force that carried Prop 8 were Black voters.
“If you are going to work to marginalize the influence of a religion on public policy, perhaps you should look at Black churches as well as the LDS.”
“All the blacks think they can be tops now.”
“yes, having one minority politically reject another minority, especially when the latter worked so hard for the former, is a difficult pill to swallow.”
“Of course black folk broke heavily against gay marriage: the neighborhood is hardly a bastion of progressivism. It's a place where the word punk is still about the worst thing you can be called. You have to make a grass roots effort in the community to reverse this trend, and I am unaware of any effort to do so.”
“I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who felt (at least somewhat) guilty about my initially racist thoughts this morning upon reading the CA exit polling information. I literally uttered words in my private office that I never would normally say.”
“So if we didn't let them vote it would have failed. If they are comfortable voting down our rights, maybe we should call for a couple of votes on their rights...”
“That 70% of one group could vote that way while other groups were nowhere near as bigoted is putrid and disgusting, especially when the bigoted goup has a history of bigotry directed against them.”
“Would you like me to draw you a Venn diagram? The reason that most Blacks voted Yes is because they are religious and they are religious at a much higher rate than other races.”
“I think yesterday I became just a little bit racist against black people. On Monday, I was color blind.
“Actions have consequences.”
“This is an education problem. The less educated a segment of the population, the more homophobic. And like any other social ill related to education level, the effect on blacks is more pronounced. You want less black homophobes? Educate more blacks.”
“It's the Christians, really. I've never understood how African-Americans could embrace the church of their oppressors, but many have, and they were told they were doing Jesus' will.
“I reported a local church to the IRS because they had ‘Yes on 8’ signs on their building. I bet nothing comes of it, but I let the church know that I was reporting their illegal activity.”
A gay-marriage supporter deplores the racism of her fellow gay-libbers
here: “. . . I'd finally read one hateful racist fingerpoint from a white gay person too many here and elsewhere on the internet . . . some of the worst anti-Black offenders here on this site since Tuesday . . . I was at a conference today in San Francisco and heard from more than one of my white gay and lesbian colleagues that they had received e-mails with some rather disburbing -- and racist -- rhetoric on this issue yesterday from other members of the local gay community . . . white gay persons who have engaged in hateful, racist rhetoric and scapegoating here at DailyKOS . . .”

"My reading comprehension my be a little weak, Max, but I don't see much intolerance in what you've quoted."
So it's not in the least intolerant
-To stay that opponents of Prop. 8, especially black voters, are "nonperson[s]",
-To suggest there be vote on black people's rights
-To say that you used to be colorblind but aren't any more, and that the "actions" of black people in voting for Prop 8 "have consequences"?
-To propose reporting anti-Prop 8 churches [apparently including black churches] to the IRS? Really? Libertarians don't think it's intolerant to try and get the Internal Revenue Service to retaliate against people with the wrong politics?
"MM, some of those are retarded (and when are internet comments not?), but some don't seem even remotely offensive."
I suppose that depends on whether you're black or not.
"If you replaced black with Jew or Irish, I wouldn't be offended."
OK, let's try that:
“anyone who votes for Prop 8 is a nonperson. I should bloody well think that goes double for Jews [or Irish].”
“Sure, the Mormons funded the campaign. But you can't get around the fact that the demographic force that carried Prop 8 were Jews [or Irish].
“If you are going to work to marginalize the influence of a religion on public policy, perhaps you should look at Jewish synagogues [or Irish churches] as well as the LDS.”
“All the Jews [or Irish] think they can be tops now.”
“yes, having one minority politically reject another minority, especially when the latter worked so hard for the former, is a difficult pill to swallow.” The Jews and Irish are such ingrates!
“Of course Jews broke heavily against gay marriage: Jewish neighborhoods are hardly a bastion of progressivism. It's a place where the phrase 'goy pansy' is still about the worst thing you can be called. You have to make a grass roots effort in the community to reverse this trend, and I am unaware of any effort to do so.”
“I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who felt (at least somewhat) guilty about my initially anti-Semitic [or anti-Irish] thoughts this morning upon reading the CA exit polling information. I literally uttered words in my private office that I never would normally say.”
“So if we didn't let Jews [or Irish] vote it would have failed. If they are comfortable voting down our rights, maybe we should call for a couple of votes on their rights...”
“That 70% of Jews [or Irish] could vote that way while other groups were nowhere near as bigoted is putrid and disgusting, especially when the bigoted goup has a history of bigotry directed against them.”
“Would you like me to draw you a Venn diagram? The reason that most Jews [or Irish] voted Yes is because they are religious and they are religious at a much higher rate than other races.”
“I think yesterday I became just a little bit anti-Semitic against Jews [or "racist against the Irish"]. On Monday, I was color blind.
“Actions have consequences.”
“This is an education problem. The less educated a segment of the population, the more homophobic. And like any other social ill related to education level, the effect on blacks is more pronounced. You want less Jewish [or Irish] homophobes? Educate more Jews [or Irish].”
“It's the Jews [or "Catholics"], really. I've never understood how Jews [or "Irish"] could embrace the church of their oppressors, but many have, and they were told they were doing Moses' [or Jesus'] will.
“I reported a local synagogue [or "Irish Catholic Church"] to the IRS because they had ‘Yes on 8’ signs on their building. I bet nothing comes of it, but I let the church know that I was reporting their illegal activity.”
“. . . I'd finally read one hateful racist fingerpoint from a white gay person too many here and elsewhere on the internet . . . some of the worst anti-Semitic offenders here on this site since Tuesday . . . I was at a conference today in San Francisco and heard from more than one of my white gay and lesbian colleagues that they had received e-mails with some rather disburbing -- and anti-Semitic -- rhetoric on this issue yesterday from other members of the local gay community . . . gentile gay persons who have engaged in hateful, racist rhetoric and scapegoating here at DailyKOS . . .”
Yeah, it sounds totally innocuous when you replace blacks with Jews and Irish.
"The black community does tend to be bigoted about gays. Why is it bigoted to say that?"
The black community, if we go by the results of Prop 8, seems to think that the law should affirm that marriage is the union of one (1) man and one (1) woman. What bigotry! What intolerance! It's just like those state troopers at the Edmund Pettus bridge!
