How Blogs Publicize Gay-Bashing When MSM is Silent

What do the words “gay bashing” bring to mind? If I were to read a headline about “gay bashing” I assume the story will be about people being called names. And the “preps” being the usual suspects the media typically rounds up: white, hetero Christians.

I searched the Virginian Pilot website under and found no mention of this one from GayPatriot:

While blogging from the Santa Barbara retreat of the David Horowitz Freedom Center, I contended that:

the greatest enemies of gay people are not social conservatives in the West who may question (what they call) our lifestyle and oppose legislation benefiting us, but Islamic theocrats who execute gay people in jurisdictions where they predominate and seek to destroy the nations with political systems which allow us to live freely.

Well, it seems the threat in not just from such theocrats in nations where they hold sway, but also from angry followers of their anti-gay doctrine in Western lands. At that retreat, I met a nice and intelligent Dutch gay lesbian who told me about a gay-bashing on April 30 in the Netherlands. She has since translated articles from the Dutch press (included with links below the “jump”).

At a fashion show to promote tolerance of gay people on April 30, a national holiday in Holland, celebrating the birthday of the late Queen Juliana, a group of ten Muslim youths dragged gay model Mike Du Pree down from the catwalk, beating him up and breaking his nose. A second model who tried to help out was also attacked.

In this case, the “bashing” was real, not verbal.

There was a follow-up posting on his website.

No wonder the MSM is in decline. When news outlets paid to cover this thing don’t uncover such stories, especially given that they’re part of a disturbing trend, we’re dependent on unpaid bloggers (and other regular citizens) to make public such information.

I’m not that surprised that neither the Virginian Pilot, nor any other members of the MSM covered this. First, it happened in Amsterdam. Second, the perps did not fir the template that the MSM has for “gay bashers.” Third, the MSM is scared shitless of Moslems. That’s why they suddenly developed Victorian vapors when it came time to publish the Danish Mohammad cartoons.

If you are looking for people to protect your freedom of speech, don’t look to the MSM. When you are gay and get physically attacked by Moslem “youths” don’t expect the press to come to your aid.

You would do better by going to someone to whom the term “patriot” still applies.
