A-List: Dallas cast member has finally made a statement regarding the vandalism incident some are calling a publicity stunt.
Earlier this week Garrett tweeted that a rock had been thrown through his apartment window, with an expletive-laden note calling him out for being a gay Republican a
ttached. Gay blogger Joe Jervis called the incident a “transparent publicity stunt” because Garrett did not file a police report. Four days after the incident went public Garrett filed a report.
But now, in an interview with HuffPo, Garrett says a report was originally filed by his building’s super when the incident was first discovered.
I was in LA last week filming with Ann Coulter. I got back late, late, late on Thursday night. I woke up to a knock on my door. It was our apartment manager and he told me that there was broken glass on my balcony. I didn’t realize that my window had been broken because my window is double paned and it had only broken on the outside. I didn’t realize it Thursday night when I got in. So the manager told me that he had filed a police report and the security guard that lives on site — he’s also a police officer — was there and he said he put my information in the police report. So, I didn’t call the police myself because they had already done it for me. Then, I called the detective to talk about it and they said, “Your name isn’t on the report.” And I said, “What?” So, that’s when I called and made my own report. If [the person who did this] really is crazy and intent on hurting me and I went missing, I want a report with my name on it so there’s a record of this.
We’re still kind of stunned about the whole thing. Seriously—a rock? What is this, the Middle Ages? Use Twitter like everyone else!
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.

I still don’t believe him, sorry.
Jack E. Jett
Hey Queerty……worried much about the Viacom Ad Revenue???????

The picture he put on twitter showed a single pane window. And that note looks very undamaged for going threw a window.
Here is the other picture no one else seems to have all the sudden. http://imgur.com/glkn0

@toyotabedzrock: Isn’t there some sheen in front of those blinds where the hole is? My eyesight might be failing me, but I wonder if there might not be another pane of glass there.
I don’t know. I’m only interested in windows that are double-hung.
Politically Incorrect Thug
Of course no one, at least not on this site, will believe him. I mean, he talks to the demon Coulter herself. So my position still stands that the double-standard of the gay Left here is palpable.
Example:
Someone throws a brick through Ann Coulter’s window, it’s a revolution.
Someone throws a brick through Rachel Maddow’s window, it’s a hate crime.
I genuinely welcome any debate, and welcome the opportunity for someone (if you can, in a rational discussion-like way) to prove me wrong. I’m talking about the legal aspects, not the moral or social angles. So far, none of my liberal friends have been able to—and pretty much all of my friends are liberal. They had to admit, somewhat to their chagrin, that I’m right about my point. Not that I’m being smug about it . . .
@Jack E. Jett: Jesus, you gotta be kidding me. Instead of trolling the capitalist-driven Internet (hissssss!), you should go downtown to one of the “protests” with the other mindless, misguided masses. Every comfort you’ve every enjoyed in your life is a direct result of capitalism, you moron. You’d be living in the woods without it. Good luck with that whole socialism thing.
Cam
So a police report was supposedly filed….that DIDN’T have his name on it……SUUUUURE.
But again, it goes along with the Narrative that the Tea Party and Conservatives have been trying to put out there.
That they are all poor little victims and everybody else in the world is picking on them.
Jack E. Jett
The fact that he was in LA filming a GAY series for a GAY network with fucking ANN
COULTER is enough to make me puke.

Tell me, in a rational, legal sense, that I’m wrong.
Michael
@Politically Incorrect Thug:
I do not condone that kind of behavior on either side of the spectrum.Hate is still hate when it comes to it ultimately.Therefore if someone threw a rock through Ann Coulters window they would be no better then the extremists who actually do things like this.
But the truth of the matter is this all has seemed way too suspicious and still does not add up.It still seems like Taylor fabricated this entire story as some kind of publicity stunt as in a way to promote the dreadful A List Dallas show on Logo.
That’s merely my observation my friend.
Will
Very convient that his name wasn’t on the first report. I am sure the building manager and security guard are really unaware who lives in what apartment.
Its a crock of shit. And really interested why Queerty keeps pushing it and doing A:list Dallas recaps in the midst of a possible hate crime fraud publicity stunt and the overwhelming backlash against LOGO.

@Politically Incorrect Thug:
You’re like a dog returning to it’s own vomit.
Again and again you resort to hypotheticals as if they buttress your point. They don’t.
The biggest double-standard ALL gay people face is the conservative view that something less than full citizenship and something less than equality is good enough for gay people. When conservatives no longer think double-standards are a respectable and godly principle to aspire to, you may have a point.
Until then, you sound like a goddam moron.

What is the A-List? And who’s this Z-loser? Burp.

The “incident” DID NOT HAPPEN. It didn’t. It was entirely made up. Jimmy LaSalvia of GOProud, another Ann Coulter teat-sucker, made up a story of his own a few months ago – wherein “black youths” attacked him and only ran away when he “reached for an imaginary gun.”
The story did not happen. And ignore Politically Incorrect Thug – PIT voted for McCain/Palin and yet he comes on here talking about “double-standard”?
There are certain things that gay republicans need to tell themselves, every day, in order to get through life – namely that Liberals are “the enemy” and that their own right-ing anti-gay families and political allies actually respect them.
This is what’s so infuriating about gay Republicans – in theory I’d love to believe they exist to build bridges between the LGBT Community and the historically-bigoted Republican party. Alas, thats’ not the case. Their chosen allies are so anti-gay that they need to spend most of their time distancing themselves from “other gays” and making up bogus stories about “evil intolerant liberals” in order to save their own asses. It’s pathetic beyond words.
They hang out with Ann Coulter, who utterly loathes gay people but gets off on her ability to control the legions of Gay White Wimps who suck up to her anyway. Seriously. She gets off on it and laughs – she remains anti-gay and yet these losers STILL idolize her. Gay Republicans exist as a brilliant example of how subersively damaging homophobia in culture is – look at what those folks have been reduced to. Castrating themselves in order to receive a most pathetic sliver of “tolerance” from their friends, family and political allies.
Keep it up, Gay Republicans. it won’t make the lives of us gay liberals any worse. we’re actually accepted by the people in our lives, without condition. your lives are your own prisons, and always will be until you grow a pair and defy the bigotry you suck up to. you deserve the lives that you have.
Spike
Silly clown. You can only wonder what M-Ann Coulter says behind this queer republican’s back. HA HA HA. He’s nothing more then window dressing being used by the republicans to create the appearance that they are all inclusive. M-Ann Coulter would be the first to send this guy to the internment camps if she could.
Michael
@Spike:
Valid point its obvious Ann talks shit about this guy behind his back.Shes the epitomy of fake nothing decent redeemable nor genuine about her.Loony bitch.

So once again, you ignore what the post is ACTUALLY about and make up a subject so you can post your usual “Boo Hoo, Conservatives are always victims” post.
This post is about whether or not a media whore lied about an incident. But you didn’t have an RNC talking point for that one.
It is no different than the post where I said it doesn’t surprise me that Palin isn’t running, she couldn’t compete with Bachman, and yet you replied that I hated strong conservative women.
There, as here, you either didn’t bother to read the post and my comment, or you didn’t care, posted your comment and hoped it would distract from the actual subject.
The fact is, THAT post was ALSO a “Boo Hoo, everybody picks on us” victimology post.
Why should anybody think conservatives are strong enough to run a nation when all we ever here from them anymore is how everybody else is a big meanine?
Little Kiwi
it’s also worth noting that GOProud and indeed most gay republicans dont’ believe in “hate crimes”
GOProud’s Chris Barron has made numerous statements about how “hate crimes” dont’ actually exist, and that they’re not “a concern” for GOProud. then his buddy Jimmy LaSalvia cooked up the whole “black youths attacked me!” story.
it’s stupid. but hey, they’re only making their own lives worse.
Dave
Regardless of what he said to her, as a gay Republican he deserves a rock to the head for agreeing to help Ann Cunter further her vicious, wild-eyed, attention-whore agenda.
CBRad
I suspect he’s another gay-bashing faker, like Dane Hall (probably), Quinn Matney, Shawn Bennett, Kieran Daly…and the rest who insult the real victims of real gaybashings. Then again, maybe I’m wrong, because aren’t those A-List shows completely staged, and everybody plays a different character? So this all might be part of the “script”, in a way.
Dave
@Politically Incorrect Thug: I only condone destroying the property and livelihoods of pricks like Ann Cunter. It’s not my fault that so many pricks happen to be hard-right fuckwads–they’re the ones grabbing the barrel and aiming the crosshairs at their own heads. [I suppose I should insert the obligatory notice that the above statement involves the use of metaphors, since we live amongst retards and criminals who both work hard to blur the line between figure of speech and reality.]
Allen D.
A policeman ESPECIALLY would have put the tenants name in the report. That’s complete bullshit.
Again, fuck this lying kid.
Allen D.
Also, a threatening note…. but NOT put who it was intended for? Ridiculous.
Produce the “original” report. It doesn’t exist.

@the crustybastard:
@Cam:
@Little Kiwi:
I’m not trying to “distract” from the point, you silly libs. I only have a differing opinion, backed up by reality, that you can’t seem to process. By responding with nothing but name-calling and innuendo, and by not addressing the scenario I presented (because you can’t deny said senario is true), all of you have proven my point, tenfold. Coulter deserves it, Maddow’s a victim. Got it.
(note: You guys and your Palin obsession are getting real old, so I’m just going to flat-out state here for the record that I publicly and personally dislike Sarah Palin and wish she would go away just as much as you do. Okay? All right? So please stop throwing her name around like she’s a personal hero of mine, because she’s not. She’s an obsession of the left, not me)
@Michael: Hi, Michael. Yes, your point about it possibly being a stunt is accurate—I never said it WASN’T a stunt. But like I always do, I was just trying to point out the double-standard of the far left here. This IS all about Taylor’s politics, because, as I stated, if a rock went through Rachel Maddow’s window (or any gay hero), there isn’t a single person on this website who would accuse her of perpetrating a hoax to gain ratings. Not one. But, as is almost always the case, rather than getting any rational retort to my question, I just get called names. Welcome to Queerty!
CBRad
Actually, what the writers will probably do is have one of the other characters eventually admit he’s the guilty rock-thrower.

And as proof that it’s strictly Taylor Garrett’s POLITICS that have earned your ire, look no further than comments #20 from Dave & #26 from Philip. Unlike you, at least they’re honest about their prejudices—don’t know why you guys can’t do the same.
Allen D.
@Politically Incorrect Thug: If Maddow was the “victim of a hate crime”, and she waited 4 days to file a report… Claimed that someone else filed a hate crime report without the name of the ‘victim’, and MSNBC said “tune in to see what the fuss is about!” Yeah, I’d call her a fucking liar and go off on her.
Throw some rocks through their windows & see what happens. Sitting around telling people how they would react to something that hasn’t happened is ridiculous. We’re discussing THIS story. Not stupid “what if”s.
Little Kiwi
PIT, if you dislike Palin so much it’s a wonder you voted for her in 2008. You voted for McCain/Palin.
Make no mistake, i think you’re a hypocrite and a coward. But hey, your life is your own prison. My liberal ass is surrounded by people who actually embrace LGBT people, not your chosen allies who tolerate you as long as you make sure to criticize “liberals”
the fact that you have to invent hypotheticals to bolster your “argument” only proves us right.
Matt
I don’t have any problem with gay republicans but Ann Coulter? Why would any gay man with an iota of self respect associate with someone with a rich history of terrible anti-gay statements and positions? Do these people literally hate themselves?
Little Kiwi
@Matt: Yes. They do hate themselves.
They suck up to the anti-gays in the hopes that they will be spared the brunt of their bigotry and it’ll be thrown, instead, on those “lefty liberal gays”
it’s a tactic of pure cowardice. the gay man who joins the bullies in knocking other gay men in hopes his own ass will be saved.

GOProud attended CPAC to…..tell people that they don’t like gay people…..right… because that’s helpful.

___________________________________________
Once again, your broken record of victimology repeats. The sad part is this.
You are attributing motives to three people in your post by pointing to things that we DIDN’T say. That would be like me pointing to something Glen Beck says and then holding you responsible for it. This is beyond ridiculous.
Additionally, I get it, I really do. You have completely wedded yourself to the “Poor little conservative victims” crying posts. However, you seem to miss the fact that I have written Brutal posts about OBama, Barney Frank, etc… AND when I wrote a post saying that Michelle Bachman would take out Palin no problem in the primaries, you attacked me for supposedly hating strong conservative women LIKE Palin and Bachman. You of course never bothered to read my post, just assumed with your own prejudice what you thought I must be saying.
1. So again, people are responsible for their own words.
2. This crybaby routine of “Poor republicans, boo hoo, everybody is a big meanie” is tired, and frankly should be a bit embarrassing for you.

Originally, he said that he now had a nice breeze in his apartment due to the broken window. Now, he says it only broke the outer window. Only one or the other can be true.

@Cam: Dude, I never said anything about victimhood (that would be the job of the Occupy Wall Street “protesters”), I was only pointing out the painfully obvious double-standard you guys have. And again, when will you get over your Palin-Bachmann obsession? I might have once called you out for being hyper-hateful against one or the other, but that was only because I’m a decent person who sees your hatred of a FORMER politician as bizarre (it would be like me shouting from the rooftops what a horrible woman Geraldine Ferraro is). I still wonder: What makes you people obsess over these women? And their families? I dunno—never will. They’re both nobodies. But, know all by these presents that I. Am. Not. A. Fan. Of. Either. Woman. So stop projecting your Palin obsession onto me.
Talk about embarrassing.

______________________________-
1. You have never said anything about victimhood because you are BEING the victim.
2. You are lying. There is no Palin Bachman obsession. Once again, you are inventing a discussion to fit your answer. The article was on Palin not running. My post merely said that I believed she wouldn’t run because she couldn’t win against Bachman. You then, obviously without reading my post asked why I hated strong conservative women like Bachman and Palin. When I pointed out that I hadn’t said one insulting thing about either, I had pointed out that Palin couldn’t defend herself against Bachman. I asked you how that was in any way an attack on Bachman.
You then refused to ever acknowledge that comment until now. And now, you are trying to misquote etc… so you can invent a response to a comment that never happened.
Lastly, In your long habbit of ignoring things you can’t respond to, you left out the large portion of my post where I point out that you attacked Little Kiwi, Myself and Crusty for comments made by OTHER poster, not us.
So lets see,
1. You ignored a post you couldn’t answer, then lied about what it said,
2. You attacked people for posts they never made, then wouldn’t respond when that was pointed out.
3. You attacked me for supposedly hating women because your own prejudices told you that is what I must have said…even though my post said nothing of the kind.
Once again, do you see that every post you write on here is some sort of “Boo Hoo, you mean big strong liberals keep picking on us little sensitive conservatives”?
Seriously, have a debate or a discussion but the crying victim thing…as I said before, is just getting embarrassing for you.

@Politically Incorrect Thug:
Your “point” is no different than insisting that if a frog had wings it wouldn’t bump it’s ass a-hoppin’.
Okay, you may be right. Maybe it wouldn’t. But even if I concede that point, a frog’s ass has precisely fuck-all to do with Taylor Garrett.
It’s a simple concept. Sorry you can’t grasp it.
Politically Incorrect Thug
@Cam: I invited a responsible response to my claim of the overt double-standard, and all I get is . . . MORE Sarah fucking Palin! Jesus Christ, you people . . .
Listen, Cam, we’re 2 people who have very different views on things, so let’s just accept that and try to keep things civil from here on out, huh? We’re obviously on 2 separate levels and aren’t likely to see eye-to-eye on much of anything, and neither is getting anything but frustrated at the other because we always seem to be discussing 2 different topics. No point in continuing to argue.
Politically Incorrect Thug
@the crustybastard: You said, “Your “point” is no different than insisting that if a frog had wings it wouldn’t bump it’s ass a-hoppin’.”
Which makes absolutely no sense, so I guess you’re right: It’s a concept I just cannot grasp. Hmm, wouldn’t bump its ass a-hoppin, wouldn’t bump its ass a-hoppin . . . nope, I just don’t get it, so I guess I AM the dumbest guy in the room. Go figure.

I think I understand the problem here. You have such a strong persecution complex that you really aren’t reading.
You didn’t get “More Sara Fucking Palin” What you got was me pointing out that you have consistently taken posts that say one thing and claiming that they were an attack on your, or on conservatives. I used the example of your false attack on me. And now, once again, as per your usual, you are pretending to misunderstand the post and once again claim it’s about one thing and not another.
Seriously, either engage in a debate or don’t. But it doesn’t help you to not actually read and respond to the real posts.
Again, you can attack me if you want, but please at least attack me for something I really said….not for an argument that you created in your head.

Tough time finding the suspect who wrote that note,, especially if the incident actually happens. Calling Taylor an attention seeking nelly twink really hits the nail on the head. At most you’re looking at a charge of vandalism or destruction of private property.
Sam Wheat
@Rodrick: I was responding to post no. 6, which attacked Coulter. (And I’m not sure why gays are so anti-Coulter—because the woman is very gay-friendly—other than the fact that the left, predictably, tells us how we can and cannot think).
Marcus
As a native of Dallas who thankfully got the hell out of there upon graduating from college, this dude Taylor is indicative of the “gays with money” in Dallas. Texas is one of those states where even folks on welfare will proudly where GOP on their sleeve since Democrats are assumed to be poor and a minority. I’ve encountered so many dudes like Taylor while in Dallas that I’ve lost count.

_____________________________
Interesting, his comment was aimed at Politically incorrect Thug, and yet you answered as if it was aimed at you. Looks like both are the same person.
That said, Coulter was opposed to the repeal of DADT, and has said that Marriage is not a civil right, even though as a graduate of Michigan Law she should be able to read the Supreme Court decisions on that issue.
The fact is, Coulter has found a rebirth with the GOP gays. She was starting to fade from public view with the advent of the Tea Party and now she, like Cher, Madonna, etc… is extending her career by becoming more gay friendly. Hey, if she becomes more gay friendly, great. But lets not pretend that what she has said in the past didn’t happen.
You claim liberals like to tell people how to think. Well then why is it always you conservatives who try to cover up the past?
Unthug
@Politically Incorrect Thug: You are forced to invent this example because this horrible thing you are complaining about has never actually happened. Your double standard doesn’t exist, thug, so why are you whining?
