Why we cannot reason with the fringe fundies

Joe Brummer at his pad Replace the Lies With TRUTH has done an excellent job of uncovering the unhinged homobigot Guy Adams and his "performance" on the Stacy L. Harp broadcast, where he claimed:

"Anyway… we were talking about homosexuality and basically about how a lot of homosexuals are beginning to have sex with animals and infants…"

The heat has been so searing for these two over the last couple of days that Ms. Harp took her blog offline, purged it and now it's fresh and clean (that or Blogger just mysteriously ate it). All the rest of the original commentary surrounding her interviews with Adams is gone, though the mp3s of the interviews are up there.

Her pre-purge blog entries can be easily found with a Google cache search of her blog, btw, which turns up the cache of her original post (with comments) about her interview.

Isn't that just like the Right, running for cover when the lies are exposed. She's clearly shaken, because she issued one of those lame non-apologies that Joe managed to scoop up before she obliterated her blog.

Guy, on the other hand, has no such intention of retracting his statement that the new trend among gays is having sex with infants, but he has proven how unbalanced The Base really is because on Friday he sent Joe Brummer 4 emails within 20 minutes that are unbelievable. I'm putting just a couple up to give you an idea of the kind of deranged, and quite frankly, threatening, taunts that can come in the mailbox when you challenge these people on their lies.

Remember, these are allegedly God-fearing "Christians" pouring out this naked hate (my emphasis below):

What's your point Joe? It sex with babies the truth; it IS happening, so what's your point?

Let's just assume that gays are not screwing babies. Okay then, what ARE gays doing? Can you describe it for me and the public???

If you won't describe it, then I will. Openly and in a national forum.

One thing you will quickly discover about me -- I CANNOT be intimidated nor will I retreat. I will stand my ground no matter what.

YOU brought this war to me and I will finish it. And there are many, many more like me too.

We simply don't care about you petty proclamations, not does Alan.

You woke up the wrong guy.

Your comments are not even worth me read. I'll bypass. WHO ARE YOU? WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

In the course of a few short months, no one will want to mention your name out of sheer fear.

You CANNOT tear my words apart because you are speaking from the moral low ground and because my words spoke the truth.

In other words, you have no firm ground on which to stand. You are a coward. I initially had a heart for you but you have proven yourself to be a reprobate.

The war is on. As Reagan said: We win, you lose.

Understand that quite well, because in a true war (unlike Iraq), all means available to me will be used.

You targeted the wrong guy, but I thank God that you did.

Enjoy your brief stay in the spotlight.

Read Joe's final response to this man.

An aside -- look at the above picture of Adams: it's the same one running on the Renew America site (where he's the organization's Deputy National Grassroots Director).

Blender Kevin pointed me to that same pic, which ran with a January 12, 2005 piece on Outlet Radio Network about Adams (Illinois Deputy Sheriff Laments 'Sick and Depraved Homosexuals), only now we can see that it was cropped for good reason over at Renew America.



Guy Adams is a law enforcement officer, people. The man is licensed to pack heat. After reading those emails, that's truly disturbing.

More takes on this:
* Wayne Besen of Truth Wins Out calls for Renew America's Chairman Alan Keyes to dismiss Guy Adams
* Jeremy at Good As You.
* Timothy at Ex-Gay Watch
