Farmer Convicted of (Gay-Pride) Parade Manure-Dumping
Associated Press ^ | Fri, Sep 17, 2004

CONWAY, Ark. - A farmer who dumped three tons of manure on the route of a gay pride parade to protest the event was found guilty Thursday of misdemeanor harassment.

Wesley Bono, 35, was sentenced to 30 days in jail, but the judge suspended the sentence as long as Bono makes regular payments for restitution and court costs.

Bono admitted spreading the manure along two city streets and in front of a gay couple's home. He pleaded innocent Aug. 2, claiming he was exercising his right of free speech.

What thge hell are they doing having a "gay-pride" parade in Conway, AR? That is a VERY Baptist community.

It is appropriate what Bobo did since the main reason for this parade was probably to stir up sh**.

Incredible. Homosexuals get all bent out of shape about getting this substance on their shoes, but happily expose their genitalia to the very same substance.

How was he to know that people who are obsessed with rectums and fecal matter would object to a delivery of free manure?

This is clearly an honest mistake.

The Farmer should have claimed that dumping the Manure was "Performance Art".

Hell! he probably could have gotten a Federal grant for it.

I just noticed the horses krapping (sic) and then the horses get hit on the head by the rider. And then the krap (sic) gets kicked out of the way. Very good post, very good.

Its photoshop but darn funny.

You can tell because the letters in the text in the center are nice and straight and don't follow the contours of the cloth underneath. The logos on each end of the sign look real for the opposite reason.

These folks sure wouldn't like what God dumped on the "gay rights" crowd in Sodom and Gomorrah (see the book of Genesis).

God dumped fire and brimstone on them.

The real problem was that they all immediately reached a state of arousal.

If you went to the website I took it from, you'd know that it is not photoshop. This guy snapped several bizarre pictures during a trip to San Fran, when a GP parade just happened to be taking place (every Thursday, Friday & Saturday I think).
