Twink thugs

Posted on Wednesday 10 November 2004

If you need a little break of humor, take a second to look at the post-election update from Article 8 Alliance, a group organized against gay marriage in Massachusetts. Under the headline “Homosexual Movement Shows its True Colors,” it gripes,

Outside of each polling place, [pro-gay-marriage Somerville candidate Carl] Sciortino’s campaign had groups of angry, enraged thugs. Â As [anti-gay-marriage candidate Vincent Ciampa’s] poll-workers stood outside the polls handing out stickers to voters, Sciortino’s people would come and stand in the way, scream at them, block them, do anything to keep voters from getting Ciampa’s stickers. Â They picked fights. Â They started arguments. Â They would unleash torrents of profanity and vulgarity.

The anecdotal stories I hear tell me that exactly the opposite was true, but beyond that, here’s the picture they have up of those “thugs.”
