Lesbian Gangs

This summer, I learned of Fox News' expose on lesbian gangs from grits & eggs. The report is so absurd, Shea and I watched it three times consecutively just trying to make sense of this irresponsible mess. Though it's no longer topical, it came up again recently in a conversation with Bianca, and I wanted to share it with my readership for an uncomfortable giggle.



In case you weren't aware, Bill O'Reilly is an asshat. It would almost comical that they can air a report like that and call it news, were it not for the fact that plenty of close-minded Americans watched that report and added fuel to their intolerance toward homosexuals. I read that Fox News later apologized for the story, since its claims were in fact inaccurate and sensationalized, but most likely the intended damage was done.

I do adore that agreeable crime analyst, Rod Wheeler, though, who could stand as a symbol for "yes men" everywhere. Pretending this segment wasn't scripted to maximize its homophobic punch, it's as though Wheeler will validate any outlandish passing thought that strikes O'Reilly.

So you're saying that lesbians want to harm us?
That's right.
They just want to hurt people?
That's right!
And they're recruiting kids to join them?
Yes!
And forcing them to perform sex acts with them?
Yes!!
And this is happening all over the country?
Sure thing!!!

We're supposed to believe there are well over 150 lesbian gangs in Washington DC and it's only now coming to light. Yeah right. I suspect the conservatives fabricated/exaggerated this story as a precursor to some Pink Pistol scandal they hope to pin on Hillary come election time.

As an educator, I wish someone told me to be on the look out for lesbians trying to "indoctrinate [kids] into homosexuality" like some of these more proactive schools.

My favorite part is where O'Reilly acts as though he's been down with the gays in the past by saying he would never think such a thing about homosexuals previously, but now "it makes sense." Yes, with such overwhelming evidence like women fighting in a parking lot, it's hard not to be swayed; I'd bet even lesbians are appalled, assuming there are any that aren't involved in gang activity, of course.

Face it, fear-mongering is real.
