As much of you know Rick Scarborough announced he would set himself on fire in protest if gay marriage legalization passed. Well the clock is now ticking and we are awaiting him to go out with a bang. Here is a thing about it.

quote:

Rick Scarborough, the antigay Texas pastor who already made headlines with a full-page newspaper ad announcing that he had at least 44,500 followers who pledged to go to jail to defend so-called traditional marriage, is now threatening to set himself on fire to stop marriage equality.

“We’re simply being preemptive and saying, no matter what the cost, we are not going to bow, we are not going to bend, and we will burn,” said Scarborough on a recent National Emergency Coalition conference call hosted by fellow antigay preacher E.W. Jackson.

yeah the tibetans are protesting the occupation of their lands and the deliberate and organized destruction of their culture, which is exactly the same as not wanting gays to have a piece of paper that says "married" on it when you think about it

Cannibalism should be fairly safe in a society with a strong cannibalism taboo though, right? Cannibals are the people most likely to have a prion disease, so don't eat cannibals. Or people who really love head cheese and also happened to live in a country with a bad bout of Mad Cow Disease.

If british headcheese loving cannibals is all you can get, you should still be okay as long as you avoid the nervous system. Should be pretty safe to eat a butt.

Someone in the gaymerica thread linked a liberal guy who burned himself just for shits without being a big drama queen about it beforehand. No, he just went out and burned himself to death without making a big fuss.

This guy's really going to let a liberal show him up?

Charles Moore was actually protesting bigotry and violence. Not that it made the national news or anything, unlike some guy making vague allusions to throwing himself upon a funeral pyre of gay marriages.

Kind of this, I'm getting so tired of conservative Christians acting like they are being persecuted because gays are being granted basic civil rights. Set yourself on fire bitch, do it, martyr yourself like you said you would you pussy.

"We are not going to bow, we are not going to bend, and if necessary we will burn" is incoherent on a literal level unless you think he's using the royal we or staging a mass suicide. Either interpretation is dumb as hell and clearly not what he's talking about in full context.

Fucker chickened out...

The Advocate: Texas Pastor Now Says He Didn't Mean He'd Really Set Himself Aflame

quote:

Put away the marshmallows.

Texas Pastor Rick Scarborough issued a statement clarifying his statement that he would be willing to set himself on fire in his fight against gay rights, now declaring, "We do not support any violence or physical harm.” .

The antigay clergyman from Pearland, Tx., made the remark to right-wing preacher E.W. Jackson in a recorded conference call with supporters on June 16:

“We are not going to bow, we are not going to bend, and if necessary we will burn.”

Although it was not clear at the time whether Scarborough meant those words to be taken literally or figuratively, the fiery pastor issued a statement to KFYO News several hours after the high court issued its ruling Friday morning, walking back his remarks to clarify he was not planning a self-immolation.

...

Our calls have not been returned. Scarborough did not clarify another controversial offer he made, first reported by Right Wing Watch, that he would volunteer to say, "Shoot me first," if pro-marriage supporters threatened "ordinary citizens" because of their opposition to equality.
