Quote:The Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville, Fla., has hanged an effigy of President Barack Obama from a gallows on its front lawn, a move DWOC pastor Terry Jones said was in response to Obama's recent endorsement of same-sex marriage, as well as his stance on abortion and what Jones called his "appeasing of radical Islam."

I'm actually speechless.

As a University of Florida student (UF is in Gainesville, where this happened), I really... have no words to describe how angry this makes me.

We get proselytizers on campus all the time, but this is just sick.

Charming.

And more than a little disgusted.

Can't say that I'm shocked to see the way this particular Christian leader expresses all the love in his heart. I do hope he catches lots of hell for it. Hell, he'll probably be given a medal. We are so fucked.

You're shocked that racist rednecks act like racist rednecks, Alei?

Why. Haven't they made it clear.

so true. this is ridiculous and they managed to get a twofer (two for one) there ... they got to bitch about him supporting gay rights as well as just getting to hang the prez. smfh. gainesville should possibly be moved into south carolina or rural georgia. actually, it belongs where it is already too, most of northern florida is pretty foul like that.

I'm not surprised, just disgusted. I hope I never feel comfortable around this sort of thing.

I do find it amazing that they say he's an extreme muslim radical who is pro-gay. I didn't know you could be both.

Rationality is not their strong suit, apparently.

They are fucking morons.
