Dave Grohl Wears Gay Marriage Support

80903P6

“Add Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl to the list of straight celebrities coming out to support gay marriage. The singer is one of the first in Hollywood to start wearing a white ribbon as a show of same-sex solidarity. ‘Anybody know about whiteknot.org?’ Grohl asked on the red carpet at last night’s MusiCares benefit and tribute to Neil Diamond. ‘You know what that’s about? It’s I believe in love and I believe in equality and I believe in marriage equality.’” [E!]

I’ve always liked this guy.
Not only is he an amazing drummer (check out anything on songs for the deaf) but he’s also a sensible, down to earth person with a lot of media swing. The fact that he brought it up on camera shows just how supportive he is. Hopefully he’s not the last celebrity to take this stand.

what is a “Foo Fighter?”

It is not a “Transgender POC Fighter” and that is for damn sure. A foo fighter have never did ANYTHING for me.

A foo fighter apparently have enough white privilege to ignore my status of over 400 years of slavery and beatings and noose-neck put downs at the hands of the Gay White Mafia of Gay West Hollywood.

When the white luxury million dollar “gay marriages” establishment puts down the champagne glasses long enough to do a documentary of ME and MY genitalia and struggles to find well-fitting shoes, perhaps, THEN and ONLY then, can we set down together on a common commode and discuss so-called “civil rights.”

I’m sorry, but that is how it TEE- HOW – ZEE – HA – ZEEZZ.

Dave Grohl is just a really cool guy. He always seems to strike exactly the right tone.

I’m black and you are crazy and FOS . I’m convinced you are just kidding posting these nonsensical “militant black trans” rants. I would bet you are a republican drunk on scotch having a laugh. If you can’t post lucid ideas why not wait till your medication kicks in. As far as the matter at hand I love Dave Grohl he is my kind of rock star irreverent and funny. Ichope I don’t offend anyone by saying I have always liked Foo fighters better than Nirvana and their current album is sick!!!!!

I sat across a desk from him while he ate chili dogs from wienerschnitzel and talked about punching Lars Ulrich out for being a dick… Yet this makes him so much cooler.

“Learn proper grammar and then I’ll take your comment seriously.”

Umm…like this kind of grammar?

“A foo fighter have never did ANYTHING for me.”

Glass houses. Throw. Stones.
