Massachusetts Anti-Gay Hate Group Offers 'Not Equal' Stickers



Well this is quite a statement to put on your bumper: MassResistance, a Massachusetts anti-gay group, is giving out 'not equal' stickers that are essentially copies of the Human Rights Campaign's logo with a big, negative slash right through them.

Via Jeremy Hooper's Good As You, here's just a taste of MassResistance's inspiration for making the stickers, taken from their own website:

The concept of "equal" is the building block of the homosexual movement's overall propaganda campaign. Simply put, homosexuality must be considered "equal" to normal heterosexuality throughout society, on all levels of human activity.

By pushing the "equal" sign everywhere, it's also meant to have an intimidating psychological effect on anyone who opposes their movement. Individual activists often display it as much as possible. It says that they're banded together, that they're everywhere, that their "equal" is the new normal, and that we don't have a chance countering their momentum.

The truth is: It's NOT equal. And MassResistance has decided to help you fight back. We've just "come out" with our own sticker that subtly and simply counters their propaganda.


MassResistance has a few suggestions for where you might put your stickers--say, for example, "on your car between your 'Impeach Obama' and 'NRA' stickers." Maybe you'd like to put them "on doors and walls in public schools--or better yet, in the State House!"

but at least they made fun of the fact that it's a "lavender" sticker. Some people are pitiful.

if anyone that owns one of these commits a violent act, it'll be WAY easier to prosecute them for a hate crime.

or their home are identifying themselves as hateful bigots. It's the American swastika. If I see any of these stickers in my area, I will be able to easily identify the greasy little nazis in the area.

Atleast it will make the H8'ers easier to spot. Might also shatter their delusions about the amount of support they have in eastern MA.

I might have to learn to ride horseback so I can travel thru Lexington yelling "The Homophobes are Coming"

They can't get equality undone, so this is their temper tantrum. Pathetic people, having a hissy about something that does not even affect them.
