Anti-Gay Tea Party Speaker Screams At LGBT Protesters: ‘We Will Not Be Silenced By Faggots!’


April 16, 2012

Scott Lively is an anti-gay hate merchant who is known as a “professional worldwide hunter of homosexuals and top proponent of ‘gay cure’” as well as a supporter of Uganda’s ‘kill gays’ legislation. So it wasn’t very surprising that Lively was allowed to be a speaker at a Tea Party Tax Day rally in Boston, Massachusetts on Sunday. It also wasn’t a surprise that LGBT protesters would hold a counter rally against the hatred.

But during the rally, some LGBT protesters and Tea Partiers confronted each other and out of the loud speakers came a disgusting slur. According to Scott Wooledge of Daily Kos, as police were on the way to break up the LGBT protesters,
“Reports from attendees were that in response to disturbances by protestors, one of the speakers said from the podium, broadcast across the loud speakers at the Commons, “We will not be silenced by faggots.”
Police then arrived and forcibly broke up the LGBT demonstrators and left the Tea Party alone. The Boston Police Department is now investigating reports that officers used excessive force while breaking up the LGBT counter rally.
