Pat Boone, No One Gives A Shit What You Think

Retrofuck jackhole and irrelevant has-been Pat "I-Once-Recorded-A-Shitty-Metal-Album-In-A-Desperate-Bid-To-Prove-I-Wasn't-Dead" Boone wants you to know something: Fags and terrorists are one and the same. To wit, "there is a real, unbroken line between the jihadist savagery in Mumbai and the hedonistic, irresponsible, blindly selfish goals and tactics of our homegrown sexual jihadists." And by sexual jihadist, he means anyone (as I just mentioned this morning) who stood up against bigotry and intolerance by protesting against Prop. 8.

In a profoundly stupid op-ed piece for WorldNetDaily filled with misinformation, contradiction and outright lies, Boone lays out all the tried and true talking points of homobigotry (which I am not even going to bother debunking, as that's been done hundreds of times already) but throws in a new twist, "the awful similarity between what happened in Mumbai" and the struggle for equality.

And as Boone so aptly points out, "Hate is hate, no matter where it erupts. And hate, unbridled, will eventually and inevitably boil into violence." Yes, Pat, we know. Which means, if you had even the slightest modicum of decency, you'd refrain from wildly inappropriate and inflammatory bullshit. But then, you've your readers to think of, eh?
