One of the hottest viral videos on the charts right now is NOM's "Gathering Storm", which is a coalition joined together to deny same-sex marriage to gay couple across the United States. To date, four states have changed their legislature to allow gay marriage, but only Vermont has done it through the legislature and not the bench.
We're sure you are aware of the hotly debated topic, but before anyone chooses a side, let's consider the message of NOM and their aim to NOM-NOM-NOM the rights away from gay couples who want to get married:
Ahhhh! It's refreshing how ignorant this video is! And now, the inevitable backlash of the liberal public begins. It starts with a simple voice-over that replaces the word "gay" with "interracial" and leaves a swollen mark on the face of conservatives that believe marriage is only for a certain bracket of individuals:
Good comparison, right? However, the amateur feel of that video will leave many dissatisfied. Leave the real mockery to the professionals! We've been thrilled with what ShootTheMessenger has come out with in the past, but this one really hits the repressed-sexuality-disguised-as-spirituality nail on the head:
How do you connect every frightening dispute between the right and the left with the concept of gay marriage? Just ask Lizz Winstead, co-creator of The Daily Show and current de facto leader of the Shoot The Messenger movement! This is a serious issue, folks. As a tempest of rhetoric over the issue swirls, Winstead has provided a shot across the bow of the "traditional" marriage crowd who don't seem as concerned with the four out of ten couples who fail at marriage!
If you have any more to add to the ongoing debate over the idea of same-sex marriage, give us a holler! Until next time, keep your guns close and your (heteroesexual) enemies even closer.
