Rosie O'Donnell Chews Out a Street Preacher: VIDEO
A video reportedly recorded at the Super Bowl of Rosie O'Donnell confronting an evangelical street preacher who calls her a "lesbian pig" and "an ungodly wicked woman on [her] way to hell" is getting some renewed attention after being circulated on social media sites.
After the preacher tells her to "go home and do the dishes" Rosie tells the hater, "I'm gonna go home and f**k my wife."
Watch, AFTER THE JUMP...
I have to admit, as much as I'd like to cheer Rosie on for doing that, and I do, it just gets so terribly depressing knowing that there are people so crazy and so bigoted that they'd take a megaphone out in public and yell at people for being lesbians, verbally abusing them in front of their children.
If that's allowed within the context of the first amendment.... there's a part of me that things it needs to be changed. It's just not right. You shouldn't be able to go take freaking megaphones and harass people in public. I'm sorry if saying that somehow makes me unAmerican, but that's just how I feel. Some things are just so wrong they shouldn't be allowed.

Get a bigger megaphone...problem solved. Rock on, Rosie. I'm not thrilled about foul language in front of a youngster, but sometimes, especially in cases like this, ya gotta say what ya gotta say. The real crime is that someone thinks this is all fine and dandy, since it is being done in the name of Jesus. Newsflash for the idiots...Jesus is about love, not hate. Read that Bible and stop thumping it. It's hard, but you can do it.

Yes Rich, I know. It's like invoking the name of Voldemort.
And no, Rick, gays I know are quite capable of defending themselves from garbage like this. The difference is that unlike the gays, lesbians have no equivalent of YOU. I have never met any self-hating lesbians out there who are so insecure about their femininity that they have an overwhelming need to shout from the rooftops "I AM A FEMININE LESBIAN!". Furthermore, I have never met a lesbian who thinks that deriding other people's femininity makes up for the lack of their own.
That is why they will be the ones winning this war for us,

Usually not a Rosie fan, but I support her on this one.

Right on, Rosie. Nobody has to put up with that kind of verbal abuse, especially in front of their kids.
