		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Don&#039;t you dare&lt;/strong&gt; let someone like Rogers make you ashamed to be gay. Don&#039;t you let ANYONE do that to you. Be proud of who you are and be proud that you are not like him.</description>

		<description>Thank you for the kind words.

Seriously, I doubt many would actually participate in a boycott called for by people I consider to be the equivilant of the inmates at the Democratic Undergound. No organization with any self-respect is going to get behind someone like Rogers, especially given the controversial nature of the material. Without backing by influential organizations (and I mean real backing, with $$ and a considerable audience), a boycott would not scare anyone and could not be sustained. And you are right to point out, any company that would stand by their gay employee is not a boycott target in my book. 

In fact, that could actually be quite good for business :-). From what I have been able to gather in my short exposure to Rogers, I believe his credibility is completely shot.</description>

		<description>You&#039;re a credit to the blogosphere, Robert.  I feel like there should be some kind of blogger defense fund for when a bully like this tries this kind of harrassment and intimidation.  I&#039;d certainly be willing to contribute.

Most of us bloggers would never think of trying to run a blogger off the net like this.  I mean, I&#039;ll do everything I can to expose the faulty logic or false information of a blogger with whom I disagree to try to persuade blog readers to read and trust my blog over so and so&#039;s . . . but to try to deny them their &lt;i&gt;right&lt;/i&gt; to speak--NEVER.

My question is: how many people would really follow a boycott led by this bully?  Certainly no conservative would participate and how many gay people would follow a boycott of a company that stands by its GAY employee?</description>

		<description>I was under the impression Rogers had threatened a national boycott against GP&#039;s employer. If that is the case, then I don&#039;t think the claim can be made that GP is not making those decisions under threat. Now, if Rogers decides to retract that threat, then I think you might have an argument. I think the last 24 hours could go a long way toward demonstrating to a court that Rogers is harassing his critics.</description>

		<description>At this point, since the story is all out, GayPatriot is making his own decisions whether to blog or not.  If Rogers did what GP said he did, GP actually could get a restraining order against Rogers.  

That&#039;s what I&#039;d do, if I were in GP&#039;s place.  </description>

		<description>Well Done Lime! Don&#039;t let this fanatic win. 

The man is a coward, he hides behind a WHOIS search sheild. 

He is also trampling all over the first amendment.

Don&#039;t let that fanatic stop you, he is a menace to decent people everywhere. </description>
