You know, you gotta love it. For years, the American Family Association and the Southern Baptists have been boycotting and protesting Gay Days at Disney (basically, one day a year when lots of gay folks go to Disney together), because the Bible thumpers felt gays were an affront to families. Well, now the homophobes are in good company.
The Ku Klux Klan has announced plans to demonstrate at this weekend's Gay Day at Dollywood.The American Family Association, the Southern Baptists, and the Klan - all fighting for the same cause. I couldn't have written this script any better.
The Klan said it would send 20 protestors to the Pigeon Forge, Tenn. theme park Saturday where about a thousands gays and lesbians are scheduled to hold their annual party. The Klan announcement said its demonstrators will carry banners denouncing homosexuality but will not wear their traditional white robes and hoods.
The KKK protest was organized by Randy Gray, a Klansman who has coordinated Klan rallies throughout Tennessee....
''Theme parks have always been for families. They're going there, I believe, to rub it in our faces, to be like 'ha, ha, we're finally getting our way,' '' he told the Tennessean newspaper.
