No laughing matter
Jerry Lewis gets himself in trouble for using "fag" during his annual telethon:
"Oh, your family has come to see you. You remember Bart, your oldest son," he said, pointing to one camera.
"Jessie, the illiterate fag," Lewis said, pointing to the other.
A weary old man and an unfortunate slip of the tongue or a sign of deeply rooted homophobia?
And in obviously more sinister news that will make you ask "WTF?", an Oregon man was sentenced to 25 years in prison for raping his 11-year-old stepson in an effort to make him gay. This, he thought, was revenge for his ex-wife (the boy's mother) because if he was gay, then she would not have any grandchildren.
I wonder if they tried an insanity defense. And I ask that half sarcastically and half seriously. What the fuck is wrong with this guy?
