quinn222 at 08:53pm on 30/08/2009This is important to me. Really. This is a serious post. No matter what fandom (if any) you are in I want you to make sure you take the time for this .gif to load and take a look at it. It will not be a hardship.
Adorable, right? So what crime has this boy committed? Why are people marching and saying hateful things to and about him?
In case you have never seen him other than 'on stage', this is Adam Lambert.
In the last week he has raised almost $70,000 for in need schools to fund arts programming.
He is described by virtually everyone who meets him as sweet, kind and giving. Look at that .gif, he has the sweetest smile on any human over the age of 5 that I have ever seen.
But he is being protested tonight (not for the fist time) because he is both Gay and Jewish. Either of these things would have been enough to earn him the wrath of those wackos with the Westboro Baptist 'church'. Now as a rule I think ignoring people like this is the way to go but you can only ignore for so long. I'd link you to the video of what's going on but it's too disgusting for me to go back and get the link.
Here's what you can do. If you twitter, please tweet #Godhateshate
let's get the trending going and keep it going. The fandom has got it as a trending topic but I know even those of you not fans of Adam's will be as revolted by this as I am and might want to have your say about it.
Oh, and by the way, this came from last time Adam was the subject (I refuse to use the word victim because he isn't one) of one of these protests, he tweeted God Hates Hate and that was about his only comment on the whole thing.
