They're Coming To Your Town: Gay-Panic In Arkansas

Eureka Springs, Arkansas used to be a "Christian town," whatever that is, until the specter of tolerance slowly moved in, and before the residents knew what was happening, it was totally okay to be gay there! So the self-described "Christian hate-bigots" made a documentary called They're Coming To Your Town to make sure other towns don't meet with the same harmonious and egalitarian fate. This is so ridiculous:

You can order a FIVE-PACK for your home, church, or Bible study, and then the hate-bigots make more money. Remember when hate was free? (Via Amandalynferri.tumblr)

So, I remember reading in OutSmart, the Houston gay publication, that Eureka Springs was one of the best vacation spots for gay people in the south. I'm actually really looking forward to going with my partner, and my best friend and his partner.
So, yes, we're coming to your town. And bringing our currency, and money. And if hate is more important to you then this recession we're having, than go ahead and get this dvd, if not, start selling rainbow flags for 10 bucks a pop!

Small writing nit: the dude in the video says "they branded us . . . Christian hate-bigots." That's not self-described, that's relating someone else's description.

I think Lindsay knows that. I think she was trying to say that that label was objectively accurate no matter who said it.

Ugh. I am so sorry.
Love, Jesus


last time I checked, the "gay agenda" is actually just the gay community wanting equality. way to set the whole world back 100 years and stir up hate, veeerrrry christ-like.

The AFA is the group that has an ex-gay write articles on the homosexual agenda that involve long, detailed descriptions of anal fisting.

Um, They're (also) Coming to Your Post-Production Studios and adding thumping techno music to the background of your hate propaganda. They can't be stopped.
