Title: The Daily Hate Mail
Post by: Ardiles on Friday, October 16, 2009, 13:21:21
Time that this vessel of narrow-minded paranoia and intolerance had it's own thread.

In today's news, a bit of a storm...

Yep, it is.  I think Ms Moir's diatribe against civil partnerships wins the 'Pointless Non Sequitur of the Year Award' (which I have just created) though.  The comments make interesting reading (as opposed to the article itself, which is just ####ing poisonous).

Even Stephen Fry has had a go, apparently the Press Complaints Commission website has crashed

I read that earlier this morning - I really found that umpleasent reading - I dont know what she was was aiming at if not to just to be pointlessly contraversal.

I love the way she had probably never met SG but carried on to make lovely presumptions based on gay preducdices

Except that going by the comments, the Daily Mail readers are not impressed either. A lot of them seem more enlightened than their paper's columnists

And fair play to those though I suspect they just may be a minority.

Let's hope not or Jan Moir will start having a go at them.

"The comments below have been moderated in advance. "

However, we appear to have a complete fuckwit have carte blanche before publishing the article in the paper in the first place. 

Who know's what the circumstances are. but the sheer simplicity of leaping from one bigotted faith to another in the article is just bemusing really.
