Sally Kern: Just Another False Martyr

By Ed Brayton

The anti-gay loonies have come up with another buzzword: "jamming." The reaction to Sally Kern's rank bigotry has been dubbed "jamming", which refers to the fact that she got nearly 30,000 emails criticizing her for what she said. And this, says the Worldnutdaily, is just despicable:

In chapter one of his best-selling book "The Marketing of Evil," WND Managing Editor David Kupelian exposes the powerful marketing strategies used by the "gay rights" movement to "sell" Americans on homosexuality as a healthy alternative lifestyle. One key tactic for accomplishing this is called "jamming."

"Jamming is pure intimidation," said Kupelian. "And what homosexual activists are doing right now to Sally Kern is a grotesque case of jamming. Basically, they're trying to silence her by threatening, intimidating, harassing and frightening her until she can't take any more abuse. No dialogue, no debate - just crush her. That's their game. It's despicable, and utterly un-American."
