LGBT activist intimidates Michigan utility into cancelling Duck Dynasty look-alike contest

Per the good folks at Charisma Magazine, where many of you will recognize the name of the writer, Todd Starnes of Fox News. The Lansing, Michigan Board of Water and Light had planned a Duck Dynasty look-alike contest as part of an upcoming chili cook-off - mainly as a time-killer while they waited for the conclusion of their really popular activity, which is a rubber duck race.

But the BWL quickly cancelled the event when it received one e-mail from an apparent LGBT activist who insisted they showed "poor judgment" putting on the contest. Starnes explains:

One of the most popular events is the rubber duck race. For all you folks living in New York City’s Upper East Side, here’s how it works: You buy a duck and then dump it into the Grand River. They typically have about 500 ducks—and the first one to float across the finish line wins a big prize. There’s just one tiny problem: It normally takes about a half-hour for the rubber ducks to float down the river. That’s a lot of time to twiddle your thumbs. But this year, the folks at the BWL decided to fill the void with a Duck Dynasty look-alike contest.

On Monday, the BWL announced the competition. Later that afternoon, they received an email from a local citizen complaining about it. The Lansing State Journal identified the aggrieved citizen as Danielle Casavant. She told the newspaper that the contest “showed poor judgment on their part.” “The City of Lansing has come out very publicly promoting equality,” she told the newspaper. “It seemed hypocritical to do something that glamorizes and promotes the show in any way.”

We've told you before that the homosexual movement is basically engaging in fascism. They want to marginalize any point of view that disagrees with theirs, and one of the ways you do that is to scare people to death if they even come within a mile of that fire. Think about the logic here: Duck Dynasty is TV show, and quite the cultural phenomenon at that. One cast member of this TV show expressed public agreement with the biblical view of homosexuality. Because of that, you cannot have a light-hearted look-alike contest related to the show because the people who disagree with the biblical view will go ballistic. This is like me refusing to watch Twin Peaks, my favorite show of all time, because Kyle MacLachlan drinks wine, which I do not drink. Not only that, but going on the rampage against everyone else who watches it too. That's how insane this is. Why did it only take one e-mail? Because as soon as officials at the BWL realized there was the potential for any blowback at all, they ran screaming from the building. The last thing they wanted was a bunch of gay activists showing up and picketing the event, attracting media attention, etc. And the activists know this, which is why all they have to do is raise a little stink and they can intimidate people into giving them pretty much whatever they want. Lansing Board of Water and Light, you have been duly defenestrated. At least we know you can wave the surrender flag quickly and efficiently.
