So some of you may remember that Alabama has introduced a bill that would ban any public funding of any material which portrays gays in a positive or non-judgmental manner (more, more, more). However, anti-gay materials would be funded. The bill would ban everything from university theater departments from performing A Chorus Line to the writings of Oscar Wilde, William Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, Chaucer, President Lincoln, and other famous homosexual authors and authors who included gay characters, as well as many gay positive films, music, and other media which receive partial public funding. Some of Allen's statements about the bill:
[Pro-homosexual activists have an agenda to] do whatever it takes to indoctrinate the hearts, minds, and souls of our children. One day they will be the school board members, they will be the probate judges, they will be the state leaders, they will be the leaders in Washington, they will be sitting on the federal and state judicial branches of government -- and they will be in a place to develop public policy that will favor that lifestyle. [We have an obligation to] save society from moral destruction.
When reporters asked him about cases like banning A Chorus Line he replied that he wasn't against the theater, but they'd have to find a less gay piece of theater to perform. He explains,
It's not censorship. There's a reason for stop lights. You're driving a vehicle, you see that stop light, and I hope you stop. Who can argue with something as reasonable as stop lights? Of course, if you're gay, this particular traffic light never changes to green.
Now, I assumed this was just going to be one of those nut case bills that never gets anywhere and quietly goes away — I just have trouble convincing myself the average American is either so hatefilled or so apathetic that they don't speak out against this stuff. So I was very surprised to find out that President Bush supports the bill personally and has invited Allen to the White House tomorrow to talk about it in more detail (more)! I would like to quote in very clear terms what Allen (and now Bush with his support) said should be done with the homosexual agenda:
“Dig a hole and dump them in it.”
I wish I was joking but those are his words exactly. Understand what's being said because it's nearly time to build some big bunker “showers”, load up the trains with human cargo, and
roll out the fucking Zyklon-B!
Hold on… there are other ways to live! As you may know, Canada's Supreme Court just gave the national OK for gay marriage here, and it's been legal in Ontario for some time. I'd like to quote what Dalton McGuinty (the Premier of Ontario) had to say about our stance on gay marriage. Of course we have our dirtbag —
cough… Alberta …cough — politicians who are anti-gay, but thankfully they're in the minority. Anyway, I thought McGuinty put it very well when he said,
I'm pleased with the ruling and proud to say that as a province we've moved to recognize gay rights, not as a result of some legal compulsion, but simply because we believe it's the right thing to do.
Listen carefully to that stance. We didn't have gay marriage because the courts forced it. The courts only affirmed it in the face of bigotry — we have it because it's the right thing to do, not because of some fringe minority pushing an agenda.
Why isn't that true everywhere in the world?
Maybe SNL was right and it's just the lack of a hockey season filling men in Canada with such love.
