Attack on LGBT rights in Cork

category cork | gender and sexuality | news report author Friday February 11, 2011 15:07author by Paul McAndrew - attack on LGBT rights in Corkauthor email paulmcandrew at gmail dot com Report this post to the editors

Regular homophobic campaigning on Patrick St in Cork City

Telling people they should hide is a threat.

This man, regularly standing on Patrick St Cork is making a political attack on the queer community and its allies and should be met with a political response.
Homophobe calling for gay people to be killed
Homophobe calling for gay people to be killed



Reminds me of neo-nazis in Britain telling people they "should get back to their own country"

I looked up Leviticus 20:13. It calls for gay people to be killed

Participants consisted of a group of homophobic men and a group of nonhomophobic men.

The men were exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli consisting of heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian videotapes, and changes in penile circumference were monitored. They also completed an Aggression Questionnaire (A. H. Buss & M. Perry, 1992). Both groups exhibited increases in penile circumference to the heterosexual and female homosexual videos.
Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli.

The groups did not differ in aggression.

Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies.

It's chilling to think that people like this had such control over the education system up until very recently. Somebody should quote a few chapters and verses out of the Ryan Report to him.

Why not counter-protest by standing right beside him and handing out flyers with something similar to this wording:

A 1996 study conducted at the University of Georgia indicates that many homophobic males exhibit repressed homosexuality and their homophobia is actually a result of their own self-loathing concerning their own homosexual desires.

Incitement to kill us. And a message that the murder will be the victims' fault not the killers'.

The quote he's pushing :i

Leviticus 20:13
New International Version (©1984)
"'If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. "

Depending on age a stern talking to might work wonders. Or go up and hug him.

A non-violent way of dealing with him would be to spray him with perfume.
