Yesterday we posted about the highly homophobic and offensive 2012 Calendar called ”I’m Not Gay, I’m Just a Sissy” wall calendar by “so called” Christian cartoonist Joe King on sale at Amazon and Barnes & Noble that mocks not only Gays and Lesbians but also AIDS.
Well King has responded on his Facebook page claiming that he’s being “bullied” and defending the calendar.
Hoo-we! Hell hath no fury like a he/she scorned… The telephone tree of tantrums is lit up like a Las Vegas marquee for “Boy-Lesque” today with hate mail, threats of boycott and even the risk of Jesus spitting on me for my “Sissy” calendar. I SAID I WAS A SISSY UP FRONT. Ironic who the real bullies are isn’t it? Let’s see if I get a call from Oprah’s people or even Anderson Cooper…
Like most bullies bluffs, the facts outweigh the fists: with almost 100 hissy- fits being thrown today only a couple of my calendars are in actual circulation. All the hysteria is coming from those nice folks who haven’t bothered to actually purchase and read my collection. Stranger still – these are REPRINTS of nationally distributed work several years old. No outcry then. Even funnier, reprint rights were obtained by “Q” one year- Utah’s largest gay paper. GUESS WHAT THE “Q” STANDS FOR?
KKKristian King goes onto actually call AIDS an “elective” disease
The “truth” is that AIDS is an “elective” disease.
It STOPS the day guys quit sticking it to each other.
And for the tragedy of women and children infected…
THAT stops the day their gay husbands and fathers stop cheating on them.
Anyone need MORE education, science or funding to understand THAT?
Okay guys time to do your duty and contact Amazon and Barnes & Noble and shut this homophobic asshole down.

I’m looking for an I’m Not Christian, I’m Just an Abortion Clinic Bomber calendar. Has anyone seen one of these?
How about I’m Not A Priest, I’m Just a Buggerer-of-Boys calendar or maybe I’m Not A Cartoonist, I’m Just a Purveyor of Hate and Fear calendar?
