Bryan Fischer says he’s a victim — Bryan Fischer needs a lesson in hate crimes


Bryan Fischer, top hate monger and head douche bag at the notoriously anti-gay hate group, the American Family Association, is now pissing and moaning that he is the victim of a hate crime being committed by those of us who dare to point out that he is a bigot.

For those of you not familiar with Fischer’s bigotry, here are just a few of the recent highlights.

Bryan Fischer’s hate:

On June 9, Fischer told his radio listeners that the Nazi Party in Germany was formed in a Munich gay bar by “homosexual thugs.”

On May 20, Fischer reported that the “number one perpetrators of hate crimes in America: homosexual activists, gay activists, the homosexual lobby.”

A day earlier, Fischer said that “gays are Nazis.”

Last year, Fischer told his radio audience that Hitler surrounded himself with gay soldiers because “he could not get straight soldiers to be savage and brutal and vicious enough to carry out his orders.”

Real hate crimes:

Fischer needs to be educated about what a hate crime really is — these, Mr. Fischer are real hate crime victims:

Jorge Steven López Mercado

On March 14, 2011, Anthony Collao, 18, died
after being was taken off life support, just days after he was beaten by the teens who allegedly yelled anti-gay slurs during the attack.

On Nov. 12 2009, Jorge Steven López Mercado,
a gay teen, was stabbed to death before he was decapitated, dismembered, and partially burned. His body was dumped along remote roadside, after his attacker — who thought he picked up a hooker — realized Mercado was not
a woman.

On Oct. 8, 2009, Jack Price, an openly gay 49-year-old man, was attacked by two men who pelted him with anti-gay comments and pummeled to the ground, leaving him with a broken jaw, fractured ribs and collapsed lungs.

On Feb. 12, 2008, 15-year-old Lawrence King was shot in the head execution style, because he expressed a romantic interest in another male classmate.

Matthew Shepard

On the night of October 6, 1998, Matthew Shepard, a gay 21 year-old college student, was viciously attacked in Laramie, WY, robbed, pistol-whipped, and tortured, then tied to a fence and left to die. He spent 5 days in a coma, and died from his injuries October 12, 1998.

Matthew’s murder shocked the nation brought national and international attention to hate crime legislation at the state and federal levels. Eleven years later, the Matthew Shepard Act — a federal hate crimes bill that included sexual orientation and gender identity — was signed by President Obama.

Those, Mr. Fischer, are only a few of the thousands of real victims who suffer from hate crimes every year.

  6. What a dumb ass. That is offensive saying the Nazis were gay after they murdered thousands maybe more than for being gay.

  15. I suppose that if Idi Amin, Stalin, and Hitler himself were alive today, they could make the same claims.

  16. Oh, yeah, let’s not forget good ol’ Rush Limbaugh! I can also see him jumping on this bandwagon.

  18. @ Daron, you sound foolish. Please get educated before coming on here and playing with the big boys and girls.

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 5:15am
  19. LOL! Its so hard to take this fool seriously.

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 5:19am
  20. and wow, i just looked through the comments. i wish people would actually read the article and do their homework before commenting.

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 5:22am
  21. Why are we still lending this man any credibility by reporting on anything he does?

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 5:56am
  22. last time i checked my history the nazis put thousands of gays and lesbians in concentration camps… that’s actually where the pink triangle originated from. its sickening that they would say that nazism actually originated from gay people

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 6:52am
  23. I know it’s all some shit, but
    “Fischer told his radio audience that Hitler surrounded himself with gay soldiers because ‘he could not get straight soldiers to be savage and brutal and vicious enough to carry out his orders.’ ”
    That was ridiculous enough to get a good chuckle out of me

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 8:28am
  24. That makes sense the nazis loved the gays that’s why they sent 10s of thousands to concentration camps to die with pink triangles

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 8:36am
  25. how dare he cry about people talking about him. what about al the LGBT people who get jumped, murdered, raped..etc. because of people like him.

    Posted on Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 9:21am
  26. This guy is obviously an idiot……I believe that he really means what he says….it’s really to bad that other people (also idiots) believe him. I know I’m supposed to be tolerant of other peoples beliefs and ideas but he’s just WRONG.
    About EVERYTHING. At this point, if he said 2+2=4, I’d have to rethink whatever I learned about adding.

    Posted on Friday, June 17, 2011 at 3:33pm
  27. W-o-w. All I can say is wow, at this /thing’s/ stupidity. Honestly, he’s not even worth to be called a man, in my opinion.

    Posted on Saturday, June 18, 2011 at 1:12pm
  28. Mr. Fischer is deeply in the closet. No one except a closeted self-hating gay man could possible focus on our anuses so much and so often.

    Posted on Tuesday, June 21, 2011 at 5:30pm
  29. Well according to this genius.; gays were predominant amongst the SS, the Luftwaffe and the victims. That’s one big gay war he’s got going on his head.
