To be fair, let’s include the first paragraph of the actual document, presumably deleted by whoever is putting this about as a statement of actual intent.

“This essay is an outré, madness, a tragic, cruel fantasy, an eruption of inner rage, on how the oppressed desperately dream of being the oppressor.”

Now I’m not saying this first paragraph necessarily changes the meaning of the whole document, people will have to make up their own minds on that, but is it indisputably dishonest to exclude it.

Thanks for the clarification. Was about to employ some literary license and go fuel the chainsaw.

I can tell you from YEARS of dealing with Earth First/ALF/Eco groups that such disclaimers are simply to give deniability WHEN one of the loons out there act on these ‘how to’ screeds.

Do not for a nanosecond believe that these things are fictional/fantasies.

We all can make up our own minds about it's content - agreed. To delete it does not change the content. That is why I included the website. So, everyone can see for themselves where it came from and to whom it was intended. It was written for gays as a calling card to future action. At the time, Christian Coalition made a huge deal about it, testified before Congress and it was written into the Congressional Record. Shortly after that Christian Coalition began to receive legal difficulties instigated from one of the now Obama gang who is intending to rip us some new ones. (I will search for her name.)

What was written in 1987 should not surprise us in the least when we see what has happened to the media, nor to what has just happened to the Boy Scouts.

When I first read this back in 1987 I said to myself, "Will they try for 'Boy's Life Magazine'?

Little did I know how right I would be.

The first paragraph provided no additional context. Manifesto vs dreams of being the oppressor is redundant.

That is a problem with excerpts, but then, link is provided.

This is a hate document. Use of announcements like this can result in confrontation conflict injury and worse. Why? So insane gays think they can get at our sons. Rule one: get your son out of scouts; Rule two: observe who their friends are; Rule three: teach moral values in the home.
