(via Think Progress LGBT: Minnesota Vikings’ Chris Kluwe Attacked As Pedophile For Supporting LGBT Equality)

Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe has been a very vocal advocate for marriage equality, helping fundraise to defeat his state’s marriage inequality amendment and just defending the gay community in general. For this, he has been bombarded with anti-gay hate mail, including one particular individual who photoshopped his name into a cartoon describing him as worse than a pedophile. Kluwe reacted to Outsports.

Indeed, there seems to be somebody in Minnesota who identifies as “American News Center” and sends anti-gay rhetoric like this, including comparisons between homosexuality and pedophilia, to many in the media who support LGBT rights.
