Right-Wing Video Warns ‘Gay Activists’ Are Plotting To ‘Take Over The Cities Of America’

Recently, Oklahoma State Rep. Sally Kern (R) came under intense criticism for making a host of incendiary remarks toward gays. For example, she said gays are a “bigger threat” to our nation than terrorism. She also warned, “Gays are infiltrating city councils.” As an example, she cited the town of Eureka Springs, AR, whose city council she claimed is now “controlled by gays.”

The American Family Association (AFA) has joined in promoting this myth of the evil gay agenda in a new video called “They’re Coming To Your Town.” The poster advertising the DVD appears to have menacing rainbow-like lights in background. PageOneQ summarizes the trailer for the video:



The presentation in the AFA trailer…”They’re Coming to Your Town,” tells the tale of an uncharacteristically diverse resort town’s government infiltrated by “a handful of homosexual activists” and bent to their will through the enactment of the town’s domestic partner registry on June 22, 2007.

“Watch, and learn,” says the trailer, “how to fight a well-organized gay agenda to take over the cities of America, one city at a time.”

1. Haven't you heard?

We caused 9/11 and Katrina.

That was only the beginning of our underground campaign to take over this country.

We've already conquered parts of Europe. That's where we fine-tuned our agenda and plot.

[trof]

6. Ya bastid!

I bet you caused the damn mortgage meltdown too.
I wouldn't put anything past you guys.
;-)

[MattBaggins]

31. Damn you and your agenda

wasn't controlling the market prices of arugula enough for you?

[marmar]

2. What a pathetic existence it must be to live in absolute fear of anyone who's somehow different.....

I almost feel sorry for the miserable AFA assholes....

[damntexdem]

3. Got news for you. Kern and AFA:

"They" have been in your town all along! And "they" likely include some of your friends (if you have any) and colleagues.

[DesertFlower]

4. lol. nt

[JackBeck]

11. The 2000 census found

the LGBT people live in over 99% of this country's counties.

We're everywhere!

[hulklogan]

27. I'm sure the 2010 census will find that there are LGBT Americans in 100% of our country's counties.

Wooohooo!

[DavidDvorkin]

Will they fix the potholes?

If they can do that, they'll have my vote.

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. COOL! Hey at least we will get politicos

dressed nicely!

:-)

By the way, true story yesterday we had a wonderful encounter with the ant-gay crazies locally...

They are amazing

[Chipper Chat]

7. Conjures up images of Anita Bryant's "Save Our Children" campaign

in the 70s. I was so pissed off at her I used her records as frisbees.

[Sabriel]

8. Feel free to take over my city.

Oshkosh could use a little change.

Let me know when You're Coming to My Town, and I'll clean up the house a little.

[HockeyMom]

9. My daughter isn't going anywhere

She has a JOB she has to go to, rent and bills to pay, food to put on the table, GAS in the car, and helping to take care of the kids --- her SO's.

Gee, that doesn't sound so different from everybody else?

[Mountainman]

10. You mean to tell me there are gay people in my town? !!!!!!!

Oh yeah my sister-in-law and here partner visited us this weekend so I guess they did come to my town.

[DainBramaged]

12. ‘Gay Activists’

So, because they are harpy, they should be shunned??? Should they be angry activists??


(I know, but that's how I respond to Rethugs when they bring up the "Gay" agenda, like the Gay agenda is anything but freedom of sexual choice and freedom to live their lives as they see fit as NORMAL human beings WITHOUT the Reich wing sticking their collective head in their bedrooms).

That's my spiel when I get the chance to spoil it.

[tanyev]

13. Fabulous! I, for one, welcome our new gay overlords.

:hi:

[jazzjunkysue]

26. Hey- At least we know they'd have a sense of humor. And great shoes.

:hug:

[pinto]

14. God, I hope I don't get Fresno.

:yoiks:

[HuffleClaw]

15. pure projection, every word n/t

[Bluenorthwest]

16. Every week it is some other slander

And our so called allies in the Democratic Party still hold tea parties with McClurkin and parse words to please priests. To hell with them all.

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

17. They're going to invade your towns and redecorate your living rooms!

BEWARE!

[jazzjunkysue]

29. Naw...they'll just re-arrange the furniture. Damn.

[phillysuse]

18. Will they re-decorate?

Fabulous taste coming to Akron Ohio, Johnstown, PA and Gary Indiana - all those bitter towns.

[jazzjunkysue]

28. Leopard skin and stripes. You're gonna love it!

[cynatnite]

19. Damn, I hope so...

Please. :)

[fascisthunter]

20. Next They'll Be Telling People to Arm Themselves

What a bunch of sick fools.

[Ian David]

21. Gay people cause Global Warming! n/t

23. Love the amorphous blob of a rainbow monster, encroaching on the skyline!!

It's like something the "South Park" creators would come up and with, and then reject as something even too ridiculous for their satirical cartoon...

[treestar]

24. Another one of the many threats to America

:scared:

[jazzjunkysue]

25. I'm a straight woman, but if all the men in the world were GOP, I'd get a dog.

Honestly! But it STILL wouldn't make me gay.

[and-justice-for-all]

30. Those people need a labotomy...

.."They are coming to your town." So be afraid, be very afraid!!!

Our agenda is not to that invasion and taking over cities, what a load of shit. Demanding to be taken as part of society and on equal terms could not be further from "taking over cities in America."

I think we, the Gay community as well as the Atheist community, need to start making our own videos to not only display FACTS but also to expose the ReichWing.

[Rex]

32. OMG!

It is scary that there are people out there dedicated to ruining other peoples happiness.

[BuelahWitch]

33. We can only hope!

:hi: Bring on the revolution!

[jazzjunkysue]

34. I heard that the "War On Straights" people stole our "War On Christmas"

Guerilla Warfare Tactical Mission Handbook.

Give. It. Back.! :crazy:

[sicksicksick_N_tired]

35. *LOL* Good grief! Isn't it appropriate to call this "christofascism"?

Honestly, one part of me just finds this kind of shit,...silly.

Another part recognizes there are those who will be manipulated by this kind of ridiculous fear-mongering.

Still,...

:rofl: OOOOOooooo! The gays are coming! The gays are coming! EEEEEEK! :rofl:

Meanwhile, those who would buy into this kind of propaganda are having their kids and jobs and national treasure spent on an aggressive, profiteering, war-mongering, criminal regime,...and they're not freaking out about that, at all.

Sad.

God help them. Jesus save them.

[JackBeck]

37. I saw an article recently

that referred to them as "theosexuals".

That one stuck with me.

[Dukkha]

36. No surprise the American Fuckwad Association is behind this

Their leaders are so deep in the closet they're finding Christmas presents

[Initech]

38. I'd rather have the "gay activists" in charge than the fucking douchebags we have in charge now!

[hulklogan]

39. Can we please make sure to take over somewhere nice?

I can think of a few towns that would be better left to the straights.

[jazzjunkysue]

40. It's TRUE! Just last week, another woman stood right next to me and undressed

right in front of me. I thought she was trying to turn me gay.

Until I realized I was at Planet Fitness in the locker room and the spinning class had just let out....

Nevermind.
