Kevin Spacey 'Has Set Gay Rights Back 50 Years’: Actor Blasted For Response to Sex Misconduct Claim
Washington Post ^ | October 30 at 3:46 PM | By Amy B Wang and Elahe Izadi

His late-night statement outraged many, particularly in the LGBT community, who accused Spacey of trying to deflect from a serious accusation — making a sexual advance on a minor — by coming out and implying that it was his choice to be gay. For years, the actor has danced around rumors he had relationships with other men.

“Coming out stories should not be used to deflect from allegations of sexual assault,” GLAAD president Sarah Kate Ellis said in a statement. “This is not a coming out story about Kevin Spacey, but a story of survivorship by Anthony Rapp and all those who bravely speak out against unwanted sexual advances.”

Even worse, they said, was the implication that the two paragraphs in his statement might be related in any way.

“Kevin Spacey has set gay rights back fifty years by a) conflating homosexuality with” Rapp’s allegations, one Twitter user said, “and b) Saying that being gay is a ‘choice.’ ”

Soon, Twitter was flooded with memes from people who were equally dumbfounded and angered by Spacey’s approach to the allegations.

It is delusion to ignore the reality that at the core of every homosexual there is a child molester. Honest homosexuals will admit that their initiating and imprinting homosexual experience was when they were minors and their “partner” was an adult.

Pedophilia is inseparable from being a (male) homosexual.

ah yes, the homosexuals have declared that homosexuality is not a choice. So it angers them that he said he chose to be gay. How crazy is this.

OFf topic, but I’ve heard that most gay men have had sex with women. And, that most “lesbians” who have had children, did not adopt, but conceived them the old fashioned way. All of this begs questions as to how innate this “gay” orientation really is.

I find it amazing when they act shocked when this is what homosexuals do. I don’t find it shocking at all because this is what depraved people do. If they really cared about kids, they wouldn’t be pushing this lifestyle on to them any opportunity they get.
