There's a storm gathering
Hey, folks!
The Big Gay Storm is a project designed to help anyone who find's the National Organization for Marriage's insane fearmongering both hilarious and scary.
Need to see the video? Check out the commercial here:
You should probably also see the [completely ridiculous] auditions for the commercial:
BUT it looks like the National Organization for Marriage has removed them from YouTube, fearing that people would learn that their ad is built on a rickety bridge made of bullshit and lies! Oops!
The next step? Check out any of the videos posted here, and post your own response video using the text online. Be yourself, be someone else, be serious or over-the-top, be making out with your boyfriend. Your straight pals can do it, too! The more people make videos using this insane text, posted in its entirety below, the more people will know that we're watching, and the clearer we can make it that these lies don't even make sense.
Thanks!
"There's a storm gathering. The clouds are dark, and the winds are strong, and I am afraid. Some who advocate for same-sex marriage have taken the issue far beyond same-sex couples.They want to bring the issue into my life. My freedom will be taken away. I'm a California doctor who must choose between my faith and my job. I'm part of a New Jersey church group punished by the government because we can't support same-sex marriage. I'm a Massachusetts parents helplessly watching as public schools teach my son that gay marriage is OK.
But some who advocate for same-sex marriage have not been content with same-sex couples living as they wish. Those advocates want to change the way I live. I will have no choice. The storm is coming.
But we have hope! A rainbow coalition of people of every creed and color are coming together in love to protect marriage."
