Left-wing thug of the day
Just like the anti-Prop. 8 mob in California, the left-wing mafioso in Maine are targeting Americans who oppose gay marriage.
Where are all the civility police to decry the climate of hate?
Voters on Tuesday repealed the state’s same sex marriage law after an emotionally charged campaign that drew large numbers to the polls and focused national attention on Maine.
…”In a defiant speech to several hundred lingering supporters, No on 1 campaign manager Jesse Connolly pledged that his side “will not quit
until we know where every single one of these votes lives.””“We’re not short-timers; we are here for the long haul,” Connolly told the crowd, some of whom wiped away tears as he spoke. “Whether it’s just all night and into the morning, or next week or next month or next year, we will be here. We’ll be fighting, we’ll be working. We will regroup.”

Sure sounds like a threat to me. Can the police get involved into this?

That’s what happens when young folks avoid marriage, family, and responsibilities.
If it comes to a vote where I live, they can have my name, address, phone number, and a recent phtograph.
I’ll give them a hug and a cookie.
They need to find a mate, settle down, and have kids.
Its just like joel the other weeks threats against me. After emailing me my home town and real name, he just sent me emails saying “soon”.
Still waiting, nothing.
Legions of interior decorators and hair stylists descend on Maine suburbs….This could become a classic horror movie.
Don’t let the closet door hit you in the butt…
Good one!
31 and O….the list is getting long.
Memo to Jesse Connolly, Gay Nazi: I’m sure a lot of people know where you live as well.
This is why everyone needs a gun. Face it, these people are not normal and certainly not rational.
They are not trying to hunt down the voters so they can show up at their home and give them a dirty look. We have seen this before. They mean to do harm to you and your property.
I’d keep my gun handy and if they showed up I’d call the police. But if they came in my yard and I even remotely felt threatened I’d send them away in a bag.
Unlike Cali many people in Maine own firearms so they may want to rethink that idea.
Just stand in front of your house every evening and call out,
“Is there anyone down range?”
That should set the proper tone.
I finaly told him to do something or shutup. He shutup.
I live in Virginia, and am against same sex marriage. Feel free to drop by and see me this weekend. I’ll be out deer hunting. There’s plenty of room near my treestand to park by my truck.
I’m wiping away tears, too.
That isn’t how cowardly thugs like these operate. They’re not going to stare down the muzzle of your gun; they’re going to wait until you’re sleeping and try to burn your house down with you and your family in it.
When you stand in the way of their sick vision of Utopia, their regard for your humanity is the same as their concern for an egg when they want to make an omlette.
The group who will benefit the most from the passage of gay marriage will be the divorce lawyers. I doubt that gays are any better at selecting life partners than straights. They should be careful what they wish for.
He’s talking out his butt. Empty threat.
223 Rock River. Just off the M4.
If they’re coming over, I wonder if I could get some decorating tips while they’re here?
Why don’t Gays just Gay Avek?
It really is a miracle what a cup of beef broth and some very angry dogs can do if these vermin appear on my lawn.
Ya know, I don’t understand why the homosexuals and lesbians (To use the stolen word “gay” insults Cornelia Otis Skinner and Offenbach) want to get married. Haven’t they heard of the marriage penalty. If you are married, you pay higher taxes; you can’t just amble off with another mate; If you do part, the higher earner has to pay ransom to the lower earner.
Health insurance is generally sold per the person insured, so two pay twice as much as one. If you have a legal contract with the other person instead of marriage, life is so much easier.
To quote South Park: “What a bunch of fags.”
Once the Left determines that something is Right or a Right, all the psychological machinery of force, intimidation, and demonization locks into play. No honest opposition is conceivable, any tactic is now permissible, discussion becomes impossible. Which is why I am urging people not to be overcome with triumphalism regarding the Tuesday results. As John Derbyshire has put it — “there will be plenty of time for tears before bedtime” (of the Left). Worked into a frenzy as they are now about any topic you can imagine, defeating them will be quite difficult and is definitely a long term proposition.
I dislike being labeled a Homophobe.
I’m not afraid of them; I just can’t stand them.
Any violence or bloodshed will be on Connolly’s head…he and his spiritually necrotic followers should be held accountable…
Sorry I didn’t like gays serving in the navy and don’t like my tutition dollars supporting them at my college.
BTW-Where’s the police at not charging this guy with a hate crimefor civil rights violations? Straight people being targeted for their sexual orientation and exercising their constitutional rights?
GSP
I’am Straight and Proud of it!
This is silly. Can you think of anyone in a relationship who would want to have same sex marriage? I mean how long would that last if you never ever ever introduce any variety into your sex life? It’s like people campaining for one sex marriage-you have sex once and never again. What would be the point of marriage afterwards?
You must be my neighbor.
Good. It’s about time his side figures out where the majority of voters live — in a country of traditional family values.
Now you know why “card check” is such a bad idea.
If Massachusetts had the opportunity to vote on gay marriage, it wouldn’t be legal here either, which is precisely why they wouldn’t let us vote on it.
the remark about legions of hairdressers and interior decorators descending on maine is JUST PRESCIOUS! my wife works daily with those poofster interior decorators, but she actually prefers them to the real women decorators, because she says at least they can make up their mind. she comes home with some of the funniest impressions of these butt-bandits, including her favs, a couple who routinely ride up on their harley wearing matching outfits, WITH CODPIECES OVER THEIR LEATHER PANTS.
This stuff needs to be stopped long before it gets remotely close to anyones property.
You may have a gun, but it will not defend you when you are asleep and these jackasses are putting a pipebomb under your car, or spray painting all over your house, slashing tires, and otherwise trying to damage your property or harm you and your family when they have had plenty of time to run.
They are worthless animals who need to be put down before they cause great harm to innocent people.
Well said. These people spend their lives obsessed with how they have orgasms, they certainly can’t be trusted to behave with clarity and making threats toward lawful voters just proves the irrationality of their deviant minds. I hope the folks in Maine keep their guns handy and shoot accurately.
oh dear, look out Mainers, they’re going to come and redecorate your lobster pods…
….ayuh..
So if they carry out on this threat and some voter in Maine, who this group admittedly targets, gets hurt or worse are the perpatrators going to be hit with a hate crime charge?
If you hear a sound like popcorn popping, wait till it stops before approaching Alohaguy’s address.
Jesse Connolly should realize that the vast majority of Maine’s citizens are straight and more importantly shoot straight.
His butt is not empty. Ever.

HA HA!
Of course, he is now trying to spin it that he just meant the REGIONS the yes-voters live in, so they can go there and campaign for same-sex marriage. I don’t buy it, of course, but that’s the spin.
Actually, the term falls under the Liberal definition of “hate speech.”
A phobia is defined as an irrational fear of something, which further implies that the person with one is emotionally disturbed. So the start of any discussion on the topic begins with the assumption that you, the heterosexual, have a mental problem.
To me the term “Homophobe” is on the same level as the “N” word. You have every right to instantly demand an apology of anyone who calls you one or it’s “discussion over.”
Oh good, the screeching, shrieking gay activists are at it again. This behavior certainly helps the cause.
Woo, go team =[
Well, I suppose the best response to this would be for the “anti-gay marriage” side to threaten to release the names/identities of those who voted for gay marriage, a la Referendum 71 in Washington state.
so they admit to hacking the voting machines
Admiral Benson: Gentlemen, we’ve waited a long time to hear this. In exactly five hours and 17 minutes, we hit the enemy toast.
Lt. Commander Block: I think that’s the enemy coast, sir.
Admiral Benson: Huh? Coast? That’ll take a little more planning. But it doesn’t matter. Our assignment is to knock out the nuclear-weapons plant at Falafel Heights. The plant goes on line in 12 hours and is heavily defended. Now, if you have trouble hitting your objective, you secondary targets are here and here: an accordion factory and a mime school.
No, that’s just popcorn.
The only thing I can tell the Conservatives in this country is “keep your powder dry and your aim straight.”
The crazies are coming for us.
I have never understood why every state does not allow a vote on same-sex marriage. So far, isn’t Maine the 32nd state to vote no on this issue? It would not pass in ANY state where a public vote is allowed….
And, thanks OLD COUNTRY BOY for the laugh of the day!!
Jesse Connolly — shouldn’t be too hard to find for some enterprising snoop. Nice of him to leave his picture in the Bluffington Post. Maybe he’d like some pickets outside his house or apartment? Is he self-employed, or would he like someone to speak to his employer about his thinly veiled threats against Maine’s voters?
Remember back when we were kids and didn’t have to hear about homosexuality EVERY SINGLE G.D. DAY OF OUR LIVES?
Should have reported the threats to your local police and the FBI. That way there would be a paper trail if you had to remove the threat with extreme prejudice.
ECS
I miss those days.
Every single day with these people. I get so damn tired of it.
In this case it would have to be me.
In my most civil tone I tell them:
You’re Here
You’re Queer

Being gay is not something that is mainstream. Most people don’t have those inclinations. There was a study that showed about 1-2% of the population is gay. However, that number is probably low due to various reasons including unwillingness to admit it to a study. Still the % is very low. So low that being gay can be considered abnormal. Of course 98% of Hollywood movies have a gay reference in them so as to suggest to the public that being gay is normal and is all around us. It may be so in Hollywood but I doubt it.
This can cause a lot of consternation for those that are gay. They want to be legitimized. They want other people to think of them as normal, that being gay is a normal part of life. That they are not different or bad as some people think.
The gay marriage issue is how they are trying to change that perception. To normalize it or legitimize it. To make it mainstream acceptable.
They read results like this as saying they are not normal. That what they feel inside is unacceptable. That makes it hard for them to reconcile their feelings. Some lash out to cover their insecurity, others regress into depression and anxiety.
We need to have compassion for those different than ourselves. That doesn’t mean we have to change the traditional view of marriage or change our own values, morals, or beliefs. And they shouldn’t expect that we should just as we shouldn’t expect them to change. 98% to 2% is a tough vote obstacle to overcome. They expend way more effort on this than they should. They can have their lifestyle. They just need some things changed to make it work better. Dumping on non gays is futile and doesn’t solve their internal anxiety. Men can still love men and women can love women. They don’t need to force everyone to agree so they feel legitimized. They can do that for themsleves but society needs to be more tolerant and recognize individual differences.

Because everyone knows Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi achieved their goals through threats, intimidation, thuggery, and violence.
Just read on the internet that there has been a major shooting at Fort Hood in Texas. They are saying that there were two separate locations, perhaps at least 12 dead and 30 or more injured.
I love you man.
uh..ok.
You should see what some of my boys’ friends are saying on their facebooks.
Arrogant little pukes.
They demand respect for their opinions and then call people with differing opinions by all kinds of lovely names that I will not use.
I look forward to seeing them in 10 yrs when they’ve been kicked around by the world a little bit.
They are the type of young skulls full of mush the activists are using to push their agenda.
Most of the adults who are complaining and claiming to be embarrassed are women
I’m sorry to say.
It’s really pathetic.
Just a few links on this cretin Connolly. There are a bunch of them for anyone who wants to play a few minutes on ASK.COM (Boycott Google!)

What is the opposite of homophobic? A Heterophobic? Well whatever it is, that is what Jesse Connolly sounds like, one of them.
Need some dogs, the noisy kind or, preferably, the big, mean kind. Someone threw eggs at my truck from the street until the dogs hit the fence. A plus is that the dogs cleaned up the driveway, too.

AP has identified the Fort Hood shooter as Major Malik Nadal Hasan, allegedly a “mental health” professional, originally from Virginia who converted to Islam (see also Religion of Peace). The FBI has categorically stated that this was “not terrrorism,” but they work for Holder’s Department of Justice, and he doesn’t see voter intimidation by Black Panthers, either.
I’m considering the idea that Islam should not be considered a religion at all since all civil laws must be subordinated to sharia law. If we name it a political movement, we can make it’s activities illegal and kick it’s converts out of the military just like we do KKK activists.
ECS
If I lived in Maine, I would have voted against gay marriage.
Come and get me.
Good one Zorro.
And Islam is both a religion and a political movement ECS.
I mentioned a few months back when a gang of homo’s were pushing around a little old lady, knocking from her hands, what was it a statue of Christ, and threatening her..now there’s a bunch tough ass hooligans…anyway I said do away with government marriage licenses. The government issues “civil unions”, another form of a contract. When a straight couple want a marriage license go to the church of your choice to get one, seems to me that removes all the fire power from the homo’s, how do they complain about that, it’s the same status as, oh oh, a married couple.
Hey, wait a minute. Isn’t this considered ‘hate speech’?
Oh, wait. My bad. He’s on the GLBT side so anything goes.
Actually, this kind of pro-gay intimidation, including getting mailing lists of contributors and harassing them, is backfiring. They’ve created their own Chinese Finger Puzzle by engaging in this uncivility.
Couldn’t agree more, I think the blacks and dems(hard lefties, majority of dem congressmen) are doing the same thing to themselves. The back lash is human nature.
If it is a political movement that advocates something contrary to the Constitution of the United States, then, maybe, it shouldn’t be treated as a religion. What is it the left does if a pastor preaches something they don’t like? Advocate removing their tax-exempt status? Sauce for the goose.

Gay Rights Leaders: The Original Teabaggers.
Like I said after the gays lost in Cali, don’t these people get that you will only change hearts and minds through non-violent struggle, NOT INTIMIDATION AND THREATS? Is this guy really that stupid?
It’s not about marriage, but all about changing culture, intimidating those who do not agree with them, and silencing those who speak out.
Once again, the love that once dared not speak its name will not now shut the F up.
