There’s nothing funny about this new ad called “Gathering Storm,” in which actors from all walks of life pretend to be people from all walks of life who claim their lives are affected by gay marriage and call for a “rainbow coalition” (oh no you DID NOT) against it. Oh, except that it’s stupid, and the organization behind it is called “NOM: National Organization for Marriage.” And also someone should set this ad to “It’s Raining Men.” Okay, a lot of things are funny, and scary:
NOM will soon be joining together with “MEH: Marriage Equality Hurts” to make more expensive scare-ads because they care so fucking much about taking away other people’s rights for some reason.
































Dumb- Douchebags-who-clearly-don’t Understand Marriage….bitches
^A far better acronym.
NOM commercial (first attempt)
There is a storm on the horizon: the gays are coming. And if we don’t do something about it, they will get us all wet.
WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT THIS IS SERIOUS?!?!?!
Oh hey, look, it’s Prop 8 all over again.
Fuck these people. These tactics may have worked on the idiotic public in California, but they’re not going to work on the consciences of the state juidiciaries who are finally making things fair and equal for all people.
Also, seriously, rainbow coalition? Jesse Jackson’s gonna have to cut off someone’s balls for that.
Whenever you can replace the subject of your argument with the word “interracial” and then can keep talking for hours and every part of your argument still makes “sense”, know that you are a complete moron and are wrong ie “I’m a Mass. parent helplessly watching my son being taught that interracial marriage is OK.”
Actually, would someone please do this?
These gay terrorists hate our freedom to be bigots.
I had a fight about this the other day with a friend of mine and the combined rage from that and this commercial is proving too much to bear.
I feel like I need to “pull a Garden State” and stand over an empty quarry screaming for no reason.
What will they think of next? Maybe something that actually matters.
You know what they thought of? A name for their campaign. It is the 2M4M campaign. Yes, it is.
I am so fucking tired of all these Homosexuals taking away MY right to take away their right to get married.
seriously. . .I’m not entirely sure how gay marriage takes away the rights of hetero marriages??? I guess it was too much to ask for an actual explanation from these people.
I love how these idiots need talking point to figure this thing out:
What?s the harm from SSM? ?How can Adam and Steve hurt your marriage??
A: ?Who gets harmed? The people of this state who lose our right to define marriage as the union of husband and wife, that?s who. That is just not right.?
THAT’S JUST NOT RIGHT! see? I’m right, you’re wrong. problem solved. how dare you to take away my right to define words*?
*I’m not a bigot. see? because I just said I’m not. Done and done.
Awe, I bet they make rainbow BFF bracelets with their Westboro Baptist Church peeps when they’re not playing with the green screen function in Windows Movie Maker! Cuuute!
How can I be expected to have consensual, heterosexual marital sex when I live in constant fear of a Bruno-like gay man dual-wielding dildos dropping from the ceiling and trying to sodomize me?! What kind of life is that America?!
PRTECKT THE CHILDRN LAWL
Oh Lindsay, these just ruin my day. Lets not post them anymore, ok?

MAN DO IT FR THE KIDDIES
they’re so dumb and confused… too confused for human rights.
Someone should interfere with their freedom to not be shot in the head.

I was thinking of dumping my wife, quitting my church, moving to Iowa to have a gay marriage, but then I found NOM. Now I can live a miserable life of lies and deceit…and oh yeah…God.
At least there is the stereotypical Latino in the video. “A storm…ees…combing.” Homophobia and racism? Perfect!
Never mind the human rights issue: this is rainbow appropriation!
Honestly this is the last thing America needs right now.
*blood boils*
This makes me want to go have more gay sex.
watch out heteros! we’re coming! all over your faces.
How exactly would legalizing gay marriage force a doctor to choose between her faith and her job? By allowing gays access to their partners in the hospital?
Someone remind these people of the Hippocratic oath…. then throw ‘em down a flight of stairs.
PS: Total gold star on the JPEG, Lindsay. I can’t stop smiling!
Nothing makes me more ANGRY than visitation rights. ARGH!!! Can’t they just worry about their loved ones from a far so i don’t have to feel all weird about seeing them, like, sincerely love each other?
I saw a spanish guy doing the bartman.
The government punishing church groups that “can’t” support same-sex marriage is news to me, but I can’t say that I’m completely against it.
Good God, between this and my friend comparing homosexuality to bestiality, I’ve had my fair share of homophobia today. I’m not even in the mood to crack a joke, so simply:
Fuck you. If you think there’s any possible way that the two gay guys down the hall getting married affects your own (probably failing, since you’re obviously an asshole) marriage, then shut the fuck up. What’s next? Stopping those darn ‘coloreds’ from infecting the all-supreme white race? Grow up, you Nazis. Change is coming and I can’t wait till you’re in the dust.
I’m just waiting to hear what An American Patriot’s views are. DON’T LEAVE ME HANGING HERE.
‘a rainbow coalition of people of every creed and color are coming together in love.
well, at least they’re pro-orgy.
how can they claim to be “rainbow” or “together in love”, when what they’re doing is purely hateful?
Someone send me this video this morning, and the only thing i could do for like fifteen minutes after was laugh at the sheer stupidity of it. and then the realization that they actually believe it sank in. i was sad then.
Can’t you just fist each other and eat poop in peace, gay Americans? Why must you infiltrate my backwards, paranoid life with your “marriage”, “love”, and “looking just like the rest of us”?
Under Obama’s administration, gay marriage will be mandatory for everyone in order to control population. Also religion will be banned as will all guns including water pistols. Taxes will be 90% for anyone making over $10,000 a year. Republicans will be hanged if they don’t agree with every bill the Democrats pass. Also there will be mandatory free health care and abortions for all. Thank you NOM for letting us know of the coming storm and how gay marriage affects us all.
Sounds good to me!
comment win.
FINALLY, unlimited free abortions!!!
This deeply offends me. Especially when that one girl said that same sex marriage is taking away her freedom. Someone else getting married doesn’t affect your own freedom.

Well who the hell is she supposed to sham marry if all the neat, polite waspy dudes are allowed to wed other dudes?
I’d like to punch my screen in rage.
Wow… I would love to hear what the hell they mean when they say gay marriage is taking away their rights and affecting their marriages. Because I know there really isn’t an answer that would make any fucking sense.
Can someone explain to me how gay marriage would make a California doctor have to choose between “her faith and her job”? Your job is to keep people alive not decide who you keep alive based on their sexual orientation.
Everything’s already been said. But seriously… Rainbow Coalition? That is a serious typo. Bigot Parade. There you go.
0:12 : Closet case.
we must strike back- forced gay porn in schools is our only solution!
Boo, Rainbow Coalition. BOO!!!

What a bunch of fucking idiots. Anybody who actually believes the garbage these people are being forced to spew out, should taken out of the gene pool. I recommend fire, but whatever works.
I live in Massachusetts. Yes. That’s right. I’m writing to you from HELL ON EARTH. I can personally attest that gay marriage has taken away ALL OF MY RIGHTS. My god, how can I even begin to describe the horror that is my life? Every day gay people break into houses and tear loving heterosexual couples from one another’s arms and steal their wedding rings thereby making them no longer married. Churches spontaneously burst into flames. Schools teach nothing but gay science, gay English, gay world history and gay advanced calculus. The sun literally no longer shines anymore, joy is banned, and baby animals are not allowed to be cute anymore so we can only have naked mole rats as pets. Doctors actually turn people gay if you go to them, because they have to under the law. My rights have been taken away. By demons. Gathering storm demons. Gay gathering storm demons. Listen to NOM while you can. *ominous rumble*
waittaminnit
is that little ms. Glamour Shots at 0:43 ??
LE SIGH. I just wanna say that I skipped watching this to avoid the inevitable “are you fucking KIDDING me” that would launch from my mouth, and did, upon watching this. But now, the storm has gathered. Oh, it’s fucking gathered all right.
Homophobia: still a safe bastion for completely ignorant, unmerited hate and discrimination.
Taking away your rights AYFKMWT? Doctor had to choose b/w her faith and her practice? Like…uh, how? You had to treat a Gay with a gunshot wound from a shotgun wedding? I don’t understand, your stupidity has made my brain seize and stop working – oh wait that was the point of the effort? What? Stop, plz, you are killing my head. Off to Colbert.
