You've got to be fucking kidding us:

A group of reggae artists, backed by their record label, will openly embrace their heterosexuality this upcoming Labor Day weekend.

"Although reggae is known for its militancy and its resistance to injustice," TCOOO Productions proclaimed, "the reggae community has remained calm throughout the attack on the music by Peter Tatchell and other Gay activists (sic) groups."
…
"The Straight Pride Parade is a chance for Heterosexuals to gather together and proudly embrace their sexuality," said reggae artist Jango Fresh. "The Parade will also allow reggae and dancehall fans who are in New York City for the Labor Day celebrations to get together and celebrate reggae, dancehall and family in love and unity."

Yes, because tracks condemning homosexuality are all about love and unity. Gawd!

Beenie Man and Buju Banton are living in a state of denial, says Peter Tatchell.

Queerty asks you to imagine for a moment that a foreign singer had a hit song whose lyrics advocated shooting Evangelists in the head, pouring acid over them and burning them alive. Would the State Department issue such a monster a visa to enter the country? It’s like asking whether Tom Cruise, if gay, is ever going to come out.

How and why Buju Banton and Beenie Man, with their hateful anti-gay lyrics advocating murder are let into this country are grounds for outrage. The two, touring the U.S., are scheduled to appear at Lupo’s Heartbreak Hotel in Providence, Rhode Island on November 21. Club owner Rich Lupo, made aware of Buju and Beenie’s lyrics, has utterly disgraced himself by not canceling their appearance in his venue.

Readers are encouraged to send protest e-mails to info@lupos.com. Buying huge blocks of tickets for the event and arriving en gay masse to boo the entire show, if somebody could organize that, would be faaaaabulous! That the Republican-led U.S. government lets these murder-mongers into the country speaks volumes about its moral values.
