A 12-year-old boy in Arizona pulled a knife on his mother for refusing to let him to dress up in a “gay Justin Bieber” costume. Luckily his mother was able to avoid any stab wounds by disarming her son and getting the police involved. So much for our theory that even young straight boys feel comfortable being Bieber fans.

Uhm…obviously, nobody at Queerty read the article.

“Surprise police said a boy pulled a knife on his mother who refused to let him go trick-or-treating as a “gay Justin Bieber,” the singer and teen idol.”
Queerty fail.

here’s a quote from the article since Queerty got it totally wrong:
The 12-year-old boy had been grounded Halloween night after an argument with his mother, who said his costume idea was disrespectful, police spokesman Sgt. Mark Ortega said.
Mom grounded him for not being respectful towards Justin Beiber. He wanted to do a bad impersonation of Beiber…

I second HF2HVIT’s comment. Seriously, what is it with Queerty jumping the gun all the time?!? READ the news before you report it! And while I’m at it, does anybody at Queerty ever EDIT these postings? It’s embarrassing at times! Good Grief…

You couldn’t have got this story more wrong, really…
I expect better of Queerty.

So, will Queerty write a huge article defending themselves AGAIN for being such major screw-ups, and how it’s our fault for somehow not getting Queerty’s point? I mean really guys; it’s not as if this is the first time you’ve misread something. Worse, the original article was really short! Again, it is time for all new blood on the writing and editorial staff.

Really? The article they’re referencing is only 5 sentences long. That’s only TWO more than they put here, and they still got it wrong? Weak.

Fagburn
@iDavid: Hilarious! I’ll be chuckling over that thought all weekend – thanks.

@iDavid: He’d kill to put on a minstrel show, if that’s what you mean.

Wow… This is one of the main reasons why I left this site for Towleroad.com ~
I come here for the first time in months, and i’ve seen 4 inaccurate, misquoted, or absolutely pointless “news” articles already..
Seriously, just move on. This website’s always had it’s good share of fails, it’s not worth it.

@Moo: Yet, you and many others keep coming back. GO FIGURE!

Whats the difference between a gay Justin Beiber costume and a Justin Beiber costume?
Lipstick!

What does one wear to resemble a Gay Justin Bieber?

Calling Justin Bieber gay is satirical. I really don’t have a problem with it.
