Pat Boone Warns of “Sexual Jihadists” and HOMO-grown “Terrorists”
Jan 28th, 2009 by Will Potter
You remember that terrorist attack in Mumbai? With hundreds of people dead and India and Pakistan–nuclear powers–facing off? Well, you know what that’s like?
Gay people who want to get married!
From Pat Boone’s column in WorldNetDaily:
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.
[Um, okay Pat. I hate to do this, but shall we all reminisce about your leather vest and chaps worn while promoting your album? Lookin' a little "sexual jihadist" there, dontcha think? For those that don't know, you've got to view these images in the context of bear culture.]
It’s amazing how fluid all of this terrorism rhetoric is, and how blurry the lines between “eco-terrorism” and “gay terrorism” and “corporate terrorism” and all the other types of scare-mongering have become. Right-wing nuts like Pat Boone, following the lead in the Green Scare, have seen an opportunity to label anyone and everyone they oppose as terrorists. (And they’re pretty eager to label everyone “gay” as well. You might recall that folks like this also said tofu makes you gay and Charlotte’s Web is animal rights extremism.)
Here’s the deal, though, Pat: If you’re really worried about homegrown and homo-grown terrorism, it’s not the mainstream folks in California and around the country who want to get married and adopt children that you should worry about. It’s these folks (and I mean that, of course, as a compliment to “Bash Back”):
tofu makes you gay? and all this time I thought an infatuation with Judy Garland made you gay…especially if you’re a woman.
*sarcasm*
I have never heard of Bash Back. They rule judging by their site.
What a fuckwad. This is his lede?
“Pretty rotten thing that happened in Mumbai, huh?”
Clearly he’s torn up about it.
He spelled Ellen DeGeneres’ name wrong, too.
As a sexual jihadist myself, I gotta admit that I like the connections. Who better to be in bed with than radical environmentalists? Some of us, after all, are both!
Tracy,
And I love his smooth, logical transition: “Thank God, it couldn’t happen here. Could it?”
Um, I have an easier time seeing nuts like Pat Boone doing something like that than the opponents of Prop 8.
Without a doubt.
Man, what a fool. He acts as though queers, etc are the persecutors and the weeping, opposite-sex families are huddled in their nuclear-fallout shelters, cringeing away from the wedding-ring wieldig homos! Like gay bashing doesn’t exist.
I never had designs on getting married, actually, til I was told I couldn’t.
Possibly the scariest thing is that anyone would LISTEN to Pat Boone on matters other than bad 1950′s pop music.
Deric, I agree: queer vegan environmentalists! Shit, I must be some freaking terrorist.
It’s gotta be those vegan brownies. Mainstream Americans just don’t MAKE things like that!
talking of Jihadists, heres a hilarious clip from New Zealand TV a couple of months ago after a local man was exposed as a police informant in animal rights and other activist groups
This debate is between a union leadler (Gilchrist had been spying on the union) and a right wing nutter knows all about Jihadism
