I think some gay rights activists have at times held pretty effective witch hunts and campaigns of character assasination -- not at all dis-similar to book burning parties.

"Dr. Laura" is a prime example of this, IMO. (And no, I'm no fan of Dr. Laura.)

From Wikipedia:

"In her book, The New Thought Police: Inside the Left's Assault on Free Speech and Free Minds (Prima, 2001), lesbian author Tammy Bruce discussed Dr. Laura's relationship with the gay community at length, and criticized some gay activists' treatment of Dr. Laura. Bruce said Dr. Laura has not only unfairly been accused of hate speech, but also has had her freedom of speech suppressed. Schlessinger wrote the foreward to Bruce's book."

LOL- "Dr" Laura!

All spreadeagled and airbrushed for her porno shoot.

LOL!

Geez, why didnt you mention Ann Coulter and her "freedom of (hate) speech"?
