Angry Gays Make Sally Kern Fear for Life
Oklahoma state representative Sally Kern, who has called gays more dangerous than terrorists, apparently means that literally — she recently said she believes her antigay stances could put her life in jeopardy.

Kern, appearing Monday on the conservative religious radio show WallBuilders Live, told hosts David Barton and Rick Green that “fear gripped my whole body” when she realized she was receiving angry emails from gay people after a video of her remarks about gays and terrorists was posted online in March 2008.

Green commented that her reaction was likely “physical fear” rather than merely “political fear,” and she responded that she and her husband “asked ourselves the question, are we willing to even lose our lives over this?”

2. You lie often enough for long enough,
even you will start believing your own lies.

3. It may be stereotyping in a positive way - yet stereotyping still
But I can't picture any group less likely to resort to violence than homosexuals. The only thing I can think of is that maybe she's buying into Hollywood depictions of "dyke" lesbians as leather-wearing, weapon-wielding motorcycle mamas ready to fight at a drop of a hat.

7. I wish no physical harm to come to Sally Kern for expressing her views.
Or, for that matter, any gay rights opponent. I'm just so beyond tired of people like this being treated with kid gloves by the M$M as if they have some sort of equal and valid counter-opinion on the topic of gay rights when all they really do is spread lies, distortions, bigotry, and fear that put the very lives and livelihoods of GLBT persons in jeopardy.

But I still think Sally Kern a disgusting old bigot.

10. Yes with so many stats, and history of us GLBT's killing straights...
Like that poor straight boy in Wyoming who was beat to death by us homosexuals, oh wait, nevermind that was Matthew Sheppard, who was beat to death for being gay.

Or that poor straight boy that was shot twice in the back of the head by the gay kid who hated him.. oh, wait, nevermind again, that was Larry King who was shot for being gay.

Just a couple of way too damn many examples.

I tell that pathetic, hypocritical creature that calls herself a representative Kern that when she can cite actual examples of gays killing straights, I'll give her ridiculous argument a shred of credence.

Until then she can kiss my fucking ass.

11. Typical BS
RRRWer: Gays are dirty, immoral, perverted, disgusting, sinful, defiled, scummy, sick, criminal, degenerates who want to rape your children and destroy the American family! They're worse than terrorists! Run! Run for your lives!


Gay person: That's totally untrue and it was wrong of you to say it. I'm offended.

RRRWer: AAAAAAH you militant gay!1!1 Stop attacking me!1!1 I fear for my life! Somebody protect me from this dangerous creature!1!1
