Gay slur attack photographs
Edited on Fri Mar-09-07 11:28 AM by cboy4
This raises the question.
What was Ann Coulter doing in Sioux Center, Iowa?

<<snip>>

(Sioux Center, IA and South Bend, IN) -- On the opening day of Equality Ride 2007, the 50 young Riders faced grim reminders of why they are on 2 buses, headed for 32 Christian colleges with policies that silence or exclude lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students. Last night the eastbound bus made its first stop in Sioux Center, IA, where Riders were harassed at their hotel. This morning they awoke to find their bus defaced by graphic anti-gay graffiti.

Link to story is in the news section to the left of the photos of hate crimes.

edit....to add fourth pic. Why not.

1. Judge not, lest ye be judged (by a jury of your peers, you hateful fuckwads)
Hotel security cameras, maybe? Oh, wouldn't that be nice? God loves prosecution of hate crimes.

And wtf is "feary"? Is that Freeper for "fairy"?

Hell, I'd leave the hatespeech on there. Let it be a talking point everywhere they go. Though, tbh, were I on that bus, I'd probably not want to be reminded of it 24/7.

8. Now, now. Some of these writings and illustrations must be
in **their** bible.

Otherwise, why would they do this? :eyes:

2. I wish they could have caught the guy/guys who did this
looks to me like whoever did it has a little obsession with penises, eh?

Do bigots actually think that their taunting and harassment is going to change how people feel? All they do is show how pathetic and insecure they are.

Thanks for the article

5. Not just any penis, but an erect one at that.

3. I'm surprised they got the drawings somewhat correct.


Freeper-esque idiots aren't known for their understanding of biology.

7. So I guess, according to the
bigots that defaced this bus believe that having any genitalia at all is part of the "gay agenda"?

:crazy:

This is just a disgrace. :-( K&R.

11. Last time I checked...yep... still looks like I'm part of the "homosexual agenda."
I seem to have misplaced my handbook. Do you have an extra copy?

9. AND.... what's the point of drawing a single vagina on one window and
and a single penis on the other?

Wouldn't their first grade-like point been better made had they intertwined two of each gender? :eyes: :crazy:

10. You don't expect them to know what to do with the genitalia.
That's giving them way too much credit!

17. Understanding the mind of the enemy is a valuable skill to have.
It's just so damn hard when they don't have a mind to being with! :rofl:

12. I'm going to guess, based on the drawings....
that the perps are about ten years old, and/or they have the intellectual capacity of a ten year old.

16. Your analysis is an insult to 10 year olds everywhere who are
far more intellectual than that. LOL!

14.  Sioux Center, IA - - Here's a big surprise...
Sioux county has the highest Repub registration in Iowa: 73%.
7.5% registered Democrats
19.5 registered with no party affiliation.

For those of you unfamiliar with this part of the world, we have one of the most conservative representative in the country. Steve King (I just threw up in my mouth).

I grew up around there. While the Dordt college administration has apologized, the general population is barely holding back a smug, "serves them homos right" attitude.

BTW, Dordt is a very conservative Xian college. Shocking, huh?
