49% of all voters thk that Cameron Kennedy is gay (homosexual), 32% voted for straight (heterosexual), and 19% like to thk that Cameron Kennedy is actually bisexual.

Viewers were left wh no explanatn when Noah Purvis, a nttant on CBS's straight matchmakg show Love Island, quietly disappeared om the 's sce been revealed that Purvis has a not-so-secret gay porn past, and acrdg to some reports, executiv at the work didn't like news was first surfaced on Twter, when ers unvered Purvis's alter ego, Ethan, who has creds for popular gay porn studs like Corb Fisher. Even as some well-known anti-gay groups like Foc on the Fay morate their views, a hard re of smaller groups, most of them religly motivated, have ntued to pump out monizg propaganda aimed at homosexuals and other sexual mori. The groups’ fluence reach far beyond what their size would suggt, bee the “facts” they dissemate about homosexualy are often amplified by certa policians, other groups and even news anizatns.

Lively first emerged as an anti-gay activist when he beme munitns director for the Oregon Cizens Alliance, which was backg that state’s notor Measure 9 vote 1992. The measure, which failed, would have add language to the state nstutn listg homosexualy, along wh pedophilia and masochism, as “abnormal behavr.

The book mak a seri of claims that virtually no ser historian agre wh: that Hler was gay, that “the Nazi Party was entirely ntrolled by aristic homosexuals, ” and that gays were pecially selected for the SS bee of their nate btaly. In a 2007 open letter to the Rsian people, he asserted that “homosexualy is a personaly disorr that volv var, often dangero sexual addictns and aggrsive, anti-social impuls. ” In 2009, he went to Uganda to speak at a major nference on the evils of homosexualy, sayg, among other thgs: “The gay movement is an evil stutn.

A month after Lively left the untry, a bill was troduced that lled for the ath penalty for certa homosexual acts and prison for those who fail to disclose gays’ inti. Takg a page om the anti-gay fabulist Stt Lively (see Abidg Tth Mistri, above), Fischer claimed a blog post last May 27 that “[h]omosexualy gave Adolph Hler, and homosexuals the ary gave the Brown Shirts, the Nazi war mache and 6 ln ad Jews.

”) Fischer has scribed Hler as “an active homosexual” who sought out gays “bee he uld not get straight soldiers to be savage and btal and vic enough. In a 2010 “actn alert, ” the AFA warned that if homosexuals are allowed to openly serve the ary, “your son or dghter may be forced to share ary showers and barracks wh active and open homosexuals. Amerins for Tth About Homosexualy (AFTAH) was formed as a part-time venture 1996 by long-time gay-basher Peter LaBarbera, who reanized 2006 as a much more ser and fluential, if often vic, operatn.

A one-time reporter for the nservative Washgton Tim, LaBarbera has been an energetic mpaigner agast “the radil homosexual agenda” sce at least 1993, when he lnched The Lambda Report, which claimed to do first-hand reportg to expose s gay enemi. AFTAH is notable for s postg of the utterly discreded work of Pl Cameron (of the Fay Rearch Instute; see below), who has claimed that gays and lbians live vastly shorter liv than heterosexuals.

Among the Cameron propaganda published by AFTAH are 2007 claims that gays and lbians Norway and Denmark live 24 fewer years than heterosexuals. ” Siarly, AFTAH’s webse rri says scribg homosexualy as a “lethal behavr addictn, ” a “dangero” practice that is “neher normal nor benign.

The same year, he posted an open letter to the Lhuanian people om long-time gay-basher Stt Lively (see Abidg Tth Mistri, above), who has ma a seri of false claims about gays nng the German Nazi Party. In the piece posted to the AFTAH webse, Lively said homosexuals are tryg to take away ee speech om all opponents of gays and to silence all relig opns on the matter. The AFTAH se repeats bog claims like the ia that a proposed bill California would “promote cross-drsg, sex-change operatns, bisexualy and homosexualy” to krgartners and other children.

TED KENNEDY ALSO REMEMBERED AS CHAMPN FOR GAY RIGHTS

As a practil matter, that means Amerin Visn, which scrib s goal as “rtor[g] Ameri’s Biblil foundatn, ” backs the ath penalty for practicg homosexuals. DeMar has modified that dictum slightly the past, sayg that homosexuals wouldn’t all be executed unr a “renstcted” ernment, but that he did believe that the ocsnal executn of “sodom” would serve society well bee “the law that requir the ath penalty for homosexual acts effectively driv the perversn of homosexualy unrground, back to the closet.

” More recently, while hostg Amerin Visn’s “The Gary DeMar Show” December 2009, Joel McDurmon, the group’s rearch director, agreed that the Bible do ll for killg homosexuals. It has lled the ia of allowg gays to serve openly the ary “evil”; opposed hate crim legislatn (which many relig-right groups falsely assert would make easy to send pastors to prison for nmng homosexualy); and raged agast a judge’s overturng of California’s Proposn 8, which had validated same-sex marriag. Wh regard to that last, said: “Homosexuals have turned away om humbly worshippg the te and livg God and his transcennt moral orr orr to make an idol out of their sexual perversn and chaos.
