This week, ex-teen heartthrob Kirk Cameron, decided it was time to tell the world what he thinks. And what he thinks is that homosexuals are an abomination. Thanks Kirk. Don't remember ANYONE asking your opinion about anything since 1987.
What really bugs is not the fact that he's a hateful anti-human religious zealot, but more that PEOPLE ARE REACTING TO IT. GLAAD is calling him out, Tracey Gold is saying he's wrong, Nikki Sixx thinks he's a total d-bag. (BTW, love that the ex-stars of the 80s are banding together against him.) But, in my opinion, the BEST reaction would be NO reaction. It's not as if someone who is at all in the public eye is coming out as a nazi. Some has-been is an ignorant moron. Big deal. How is this even news?
Of course, here I sit typing away about the situation, so perhaps I'm part of the problem. Me and my dozen or so followers.
If I could sit down with him, I'd tell him to worry about his own marriage, family, life. I wish I could tell him that no one cares about his opinion, but sadly, the reaction to his pitiful little diatribe proves otherwise. My biggest fear is that now that Kirk has opened the door, more has been TV actors are going to step up to the mic and we'll be forced to listen to what they think.
I swear to God, if Conrad Bain (who is still alive and kickin at 89 btw) comes out with his opinion on illegal immigration, I will scream. And what will I scream? THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0CYJNw9YJQ&feature=related
But what does Jeremy Miller think???

Personally, I'd like Charlotte Rae's input on the matter. Mrs. Garrett always made good sense.

ReplyDeleteHonestly, how unaware can a person be? It always baffles me when someone in the entrainment biz says this type of garboldigook. My maybe wrong assumption is that having so much opportunity and exposure would enlighten a man.
ReplyDeleteSadly, Kirk was one of my very first homosexual crushes, we had a very passionate lovescapade. Where did we wrong ?. The growing is supposed to be painful, not the being grown!
