Don't read this if you've just eaten (freeper hate speech, pro Beenie Man)
I was lurking at FR today, wondering how they're dealing with all the (i.e., their) bad news.

They're not even trying to spin most of it -- just ignoring it for the most part, and talking about such relevant subjects as Kerry's dog.

Anyway, I came across two posts about Beenie Man.

(For those unfamiliar with the story, this is from the Associated Press: "Dancehall star Beenie Man, who has recorded anti-gay songs in the past, was yanked from a concert associated with the MTV Video Music Awards this weekend after gay groups planned a protest, the network said Wednesday. MTV pulled the Jamaican singer from the roster Tuesday after South Florida gay activists announced plans to protest Saturday's concert in Miami over some of his past lyrics, including 'I'm dreaming of a new Jamaica, come to execute all the gays' and 'Queers must be killed.'")

Warning: The following are freeper responses to this story. Stop reading NOW if you have a weak stomach.

===

More fascism from the left.

===

I never heard of Beenie Man but he's refreshing when you look at what MTV is offering...

===

Are Homosexuals now classified as "ENDANGERED SPECIES"

===

I guess freedom of speech is not what this is about after all, it is about sodomy being forced on society.

Just what those "right wingers" said it was about all along.

===

>>> Yes, MTV is fascist left, but come on...'execute gays'?, 'kill queers' ?

Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

Still sure you want to ban that message? It's a very slippery slope, one the libs are just now daring to tread.

===

I am saying that they are using this as stage one in their attempts to ban the Bible as hate speech.
