It’s nice to see a bigot get a taste of his own medicine. As you may have heard, the “don’t say gay bill” legislator in Tennessee, State Senator Stacey Campfield, was booted out of a restaurant in Knoxville, The Bistro at the Bijou, by the owner for his recent remarks about gays and the origin of AIDS.

“When I saw him at the front door, I told him to leave,” [Owner Martha] Boggs said Monday. “It’s just my way to show support for the gay community and stand up to somebody I think is a bully. He’s really gone from being stupid to dangerous. I think he needs to know what it feels like to be discriminated against.”

Campfield responded with a blog post comparing himself to Jesus Christ and to the civil-rights demonstrators of the 1960s.

“Unfortunately some people do not let facts get in the way of their prejudice,” he wrote. “I guess some people still support segregation. Just segregation of thought.”

Wow. That’s balls. Nice touch for a lawmaker trying to ensure that LGBT Tennesseans don’t have the same rights that he has.

1. The funniest line was this one:

Campfield responded with a blog post comparing himself to Jesus Christ and to the civil-rights demonstrators of the 1960s.


He's about as much like Jesus Christ as a pig is like a daisy. And civil rights demonstrators? He'd be the asshole manning the fire hose!

Good for Martha Boggs--I hope she's overwhelmed with business as a consequence of her actions!!

2. Today's Christian conservatives/Republicans would be bidding on the rights

to hammer nails into Jesus's hands at the execution ...

4. Indeed--and the independent contractors would be charging the Romans five hundred denaris a nail! nt

3. WOW, David got another interview!

What an idiot that guy he's interviewing is!

So uninformed.

"The average homosexual has a life-span of 24 years less"???

"Many homosexual relationships are NOT monogamous"???

Such a bunch of wive's tales and deliberate desire to stay prejudiced.

What his religion and inadaquate social science education have taught him to be.

What an idiot!

Too much idiocy for one day. maybe I can resume it tomorrow.
