[Re: “Gay” Activists Mull “Organized Terrorism” Against Christians]
Sounds like the line of thinking glorified in the movie V for Vendetta... ie that terrorism is okay as long as it's homosexual activists using it against "oppressive" Christians.

Wow, did you ever miss the point of the V for Vendetta.
You are officially banned from reviewing films that require more than a third-grade literacy level. Try The Barney Movie instead.
Actually, it's okay if you're an anarchist fighting a fascist band of murderers and you can guarantee no innocent casualties.
But it's cute how you put quotes around "oppressed" like those fictional villains didn't slaughter thousands of LGBT people.
You never watched that film. Lying for Jesus, clearly.
Fundies like you are too busy railing against teh eebils of liberal Hollywood, you'd never allow yourselves to watch any movies.
But killing Dr. Tiller was OK with you, and if the gays were trying to keep you from getting married, I'll bet you'd be OK with throwing a little "organized terrorism" their way, too.
...wtf?
Did this person even see the movie? Or even part of it? Or a commercial for it?
(I'm assuming, of course, that they certainly never would've opened the actual book the movie is based on.)
Referring to the movie, since I haven't read the graphic novel*:
The government imprisoned people without charge, tortured them, used them for unethical human experiements that killed almost all their subjects, and them released biological weapons upon a civilian population in the hopes that the resulting fear would allow them to cement their hold on power.
V killed people who had been directly involved in the above crimes, who could not be legally tried because of government corruption, and made a TV appearance urging people to resist government opression. He also blew up an empty buiding, after giving fair warning a year in advance.
Who is the terrorist here?
I'm going to have to go back and re-watch "V" for teh ghey. ...
(Two hours later)
No, still don't see it. Teotwawki must have some damn good gaydar.
Ever seen the movie or read the graphic novel? He does it to liberate people from a government which caused him to basically be tortured (and worse)You seem ok with terrorism from Eric Roudolph, Scott Roeder, and Timothy McVeigh.
I can imagine this poster being a Norsefire activist, but considering that the U.S is no more in either of the 2 timelines, that V For Vendetta exists in, I imagine he's posting this from what remains of the U.S...(think the Strieber/Kutneka novel Warday here) , while in the Movie, "Norsefire" is the terrorist group in question, as it's the group responsible for releasing plagues in the U.K, & later the United States, that enables them to come into power... (whoops, I meant Larkshill Resettlement Camp} , that manages to escape...
@ Zeus Almighty --
In the graphic novel, V's sexual orientation is kept pretty deliberately ambiguous. (His reasons for being in the concentration camp are never clarified -- could be that he was gay, or not white, or a Socialist or Anarchist. A few scenes imply pretty heavily that he's male, or at least have a very masculine muscle & bone structure, but that's really all we know about him.)
Isn't Rapture Alert run by the same idiots as Rapture Ready? Did they just source themselves?
What the hell did V for Vendetta have to do with homosexuality? And yeah, if my country became a theocracy, I'd become a freedom fighter.
I think you need to watch the movie again. Also, some Christians do oppress others. Ever since the religion was created some of its members have always gone out of their way to oppress others. Just look at the witch hunts, the Spanish Inquisition, and those who protest against equal rights for homosexuals. I, however, am not one of those Christians, just so everyone knows.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
