Sunday, November 9, a band of about 30 gays stormed Mount Hope Church in Lansing, Michigan. Some were well-dressed so they could blend in with the church-goers and wreak havoc inside the church by pulling fire alarms, throwing fliers at churchgoers, yelling at parishioners and storming the pulpit while holding up a large rainbow colored flag that read, “IT’S OKAY TO BE GAY! BASH BACK!” Others dressed in black and pink remained outside beating on buckets, shouting “Jesus was a homo” on a megaphone and carrying an upside-down pink cross. Catholic League president Bill Donohue addressed this issue, “The real story here is the refusal of the mainstream media to cover what is surely one of the most disturbing events of 2008. If an organized group of gay bashers stormed a gay church, there is not a single sentient person in the United State who wouldn’t know about it.
