Kevin Spacey is taking more heat from the LGBT community -- now, Zachary Quinto is teeing off on his coming out, calling it "deeply sad and troubling."

The 'Star Trek' star says Spacey's announcement he's gay was nothing but a "calculated manipulation to deflect attention from the very serious accusations" ... that he attempted to molest then-14-year-old actor Anthony Rapp.

As we reported ... Spacey came out in his apology statement to Rapp, in which he also claimed he didn't remember the alleged drunken incident.

Quinto ain't buying that. He added, "i am sorry that kevin only saw fit to acknowledge his truth when he thought it would serve him - just as his denial served him for so many years."

I see, they have no objection to him attempting child molestation, they just don’t want him to be GAY

[butlerweave]

Come out ,don’t come out ,they should make up their minds

[ColdOne]

Wow! just wow.

[Jim W N]

I always thought he was a bit spacey.

[dfwgator]

Yeah, because the party’s over, Zach.

So Quinto: How old were you when a homo first made an advance?

Gays are upset because their dirty little secret is finally out.

being a closeted gay worse than a cho-mo in Hollywierd.....

[sparklite2]

My gaydar has failed, or Spacey’s lying.

[beergarden]

Exactly. Go full fag or go home.

[drewh]

ill bet Tom Cruise and John Travolta are shaking in their boots. get the non-disclosure forms ready!

Not the kind of guy you'd have to the House to play cards.

[lerker]

If you are implying Spacey does not set off your gay alarm, then yes, it is broken. He is super gay. Only Manilow and Liberace are less of a surprise.

Spacey’s been picked up a couple of times by the bobbies cruising London parks for homosexual action, its been kept quiet....hes been the director of the Old Vic theatre for a few years

[1malumprohibitum]

Your Gaydar has failed. Spacey is a mean queen. Tons of stories about his hissy fits and nastiness. He was also a frequent flier on Epstein’s Lolita express. He is a dark evil person who has probably traumatized many under age boys.

[Mears]

Spacey left the Old Vic 2 years ago.

In all fairness, what Quinto condemned was Spacey's "calculated manipulation to deflect attention from the very serious accusation that he attempted to molest [a child]". That's what I condemn him for too - Spacey is trying to cloud the fact that he admits to sexually assaulting a child with the fact that he's coming out as gay. What's worse, news organizations like ABC went along with his spin initially.

Wait a minute ... wait a minute ... what are you saying about Manilow and Liberace??? [/s]
