Freepers coming out of woodwork over gay themed comics
Saw this on Cinescape, an article about how manga with gay themes and male-male romances are attracting young female readers. Well needless to say, the freepers are out in full force, spewing their hatred towards gays. Scroll down and take a look at some of the comments.

gladd and other gay groups now seem to be trying to pass themselves as normal to children and teenagers with yet another abomination.

Brainwashing is what gays are doing to pass themselves off as normal.

1. Brainwashing is what gays are doing to pass themselves off as normal.
The same can be said about fundies... with more accuracy, to be honest. Last I checked, gays didn't have multi-million dollar structures where they conducted that brainwashing, and tax free status with which to bank millions of dollars at the expense of the rest of the public.

2. frankly, I say let 'em
If they want to expend their energies on comic books, they mightn't have the left over energy or $ to push on their "lets go bomb Iran" campaign, or "what we need is more black-op torture sites" initiatives.

4. It's their fallback issue
For when everything else is going wrong. Everyone is standing around looking at the wreckage of the Bush Administration, so they have to yell, look over there! It's a queer, burning a flag!!

8. Let's face it; freepers think they are normal. They see us as the
deviants.

9. Wow, not only is this guy a homophobe, but he's also racist

whatgives73 posted this:Personally, I don't have a problem with blacks or jews, I think they are great people, I have met some Jewish people that I really looked up too, and I have met some very smart black people that were great to talk to.

He used the classic "I'm not racist" excuse!

Guess this shouldn't come as a surprise.

10. Freepers: The Lunatic Fringe of 33% who still think Bush doesn't suck
That's bush's latest approval rating from Pew.
