Mass. Family Advocate Urges Protest of Homosexual Porn Site Billboard

(AgapePress) - A Massachusetts pro-family group is urging Clear Channel Communications to take down a billboard in the Boston area that advertises a pornographic homosexual website. The large sign that stands along Massachusetts avenue near the M.I.T. campus in Cambridge features two nude men embracing while wrapped in an American flag. The slogan on the sign reads, "Come together. Gay.com."

Brian Camenker of the conservative group Article 8 Alliance points out that the billboard is situated so anyone driving or riding through town could see it. He says the sign's suggestive imagery is "pretty disgusting," but beyond that, "Gay.com is -- I don't think you want to go and see what it is."

What Gay.com is, Camenker explains, is "a pornographic homosexual website [where members] pay to learn how you can 'hook up' with other guys -- and it talks about all kinds of pretty disgusting products and homosexual pornography." He is urging pro-family activists to call or write Clear Channel and express their disapproval of the billboard, with its promotion of the homosexual porn site and its desecration of the American flag.

The Article 8 Alliance spokesman believes the Gay.com billboard represents yet more fallout from the state's legalization of homosexual "marriage" following the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court's 2003 ruling that denying same-sex couples the right to marry is a constitutional violation. Camenker feels homosexual activists have used the momentum gained by the MSJC ruling to continue pushing their agenda of forcing the recognition of special rights for their group and public acceptance of their lifestyle.

The Article 8 Alliance website further emphasizes the point. It states, "Legally sanctioned gay 'marriage' is the green light to push this in your face -- in the schools, government, businesses, and the public square." The group also insists that the purpose behind the billboard is mass desensitization and asks, "When will you and your children drive by this in your neighborhood?"

Camenker is convinced that the outrageous billboard and messages like it are only the beginning of a well-plotted campaign. He says, "This is what the gay movement seems to be doing," he contends, "pushing it in your face, desensitizing you and your family. And this is going to start happening."

Interestingly, the pro-family activist notes, Clear Channel did not initially list its name on the Gay.com billboard. "We had to do some research. They apparently were too embarrassed to put their name on it," he says, "but they did admit that they did it."

Camenker hopes concerned pro-family citizens will act to contact Clear Channel by phone, letter or e-mail to let them know how they feel about the Gay.com ad and to urge the communications giant to take the sign down immediately.
