Miller Brewing Sponsorship of Fair That Portrays Christ, Disciples as Half-Naked Homosexual
Beer (& More) In Food ^ | 9-26-2007 | Bob Skilnik

Posted on 09/26/2007 10:17:26 AM PDT by toddlintown

Organizers of San Francisco’s Folsom Street Fair — sponsored by Miller Brewing Co. – have portrayed Christ and his disciples as half-naked homosexual sadomasochists in the event’s promotional advertisement, and the conservative group Concerned Women for America is complaining about the hypocrisy of it...

After someone from Miller pulled their head out of the ass, Miller has asked to have its log removed from the advertising poster for the “event.” So far, however, Miller has NOT pulled its sponsorship of this freak show...

Just talked to a guy there, very politely told him the homosexual depiction of the Last Supper for the San Francisco event was insulting to me.

I also warned him to tell the executives that Miller Beer is now being called Queer Beer and that suits me just fine because I drink the "King of Beer".

I was there long enough to dish some much-deserved abuse and announce my intention to ban Miller from my home. The Miller anti-Christian’s answer was to ask where the Miller product question was. The flames were shooting out of my display, but that’s what I expected from Satan’s enablers. I encourage others to go to the site and tweek them a bit.

Just another form of hatred and bigotry by the sexual deviants aimed at those who don’t accept their behavior as beneficial to society. Some people on the planet still have not accepted the Will and Grace show as an accurate portrayal of the practices, of fisting, rimming and gerbiling in San Francisco.

If you want to see what this event is about, just put “Folsom Street Fair” into Google Images.

BUT DON’T DO THIS AT WORK !!!!!

You may also need eye-bleach to sanitize your eyes after looking at these.

According to the WorldNetDaily, this is a A taxpayer-supported "gay" celebration in San Francisco, featuring a poster portraying Jesus Christ and his disciples as "half-naked homosexual sadomasochists". >BR>
The poster by organizers of the Folsom Street Fair, sponsored in part by Miller Brewing, replaces the bread and wine representing Christ's blood and body with sadomasochistic sex toys.

People are looking to be offended over this ad.

If you look at photos of prior year's fairs, Miller was a past sponsor too.

The event seems to cater to specific fetishes as reflected in the flag in the ad which is the "Leather Pride Flag" which Wikipedia says, "is not an exclusively gay symbol and represents the entire leather community".

While the Folsom Street Fair appears aimed at this leather fetish community, and perhaps sadomasochism, I saw photos of people dressed in mascot-type animal costumes too.

Miller Lite is the sponsor. Brands are generally not responsible for what their sister-labels do with advertising.

It's the exact same company. Can the head honchos of marketing divisions provide "input" to brand-level advertising project coordinators? (Ya better believe it).

In this case, Miller's name is the one mixing in the mud; therefore any reputation is "Miller-wide."
