It is very confusing. Enjoy!

Thank you, Towleroad.

My goodness, that was hilariously confusing and awesome.

Posted by mikethehammer on July 18, 2012 at 3:33 PM

Wow.... that's amazingly incoherent.

Posted by deadrose on July 18, 2012 at 3:35 PM

Incoherent -- and self-contradictory at times.

Maybe there is a God!?

bwahahaha. Many thanks, David.

Was this done by someone for marriage equality as satire? Oh, no, I guess not.

You should click on one of the other stoplight videos at the end, The Imperfect Candidate. It's delightfully terrible.

This is the sort of ridiculous length they need to go to to argue their case. The longer and longer they resist just outright saying it's because they hate gays and that's that, the twistier and more abstract their language is going to get.

Wow.... WTF?

I kept expecting the cop to take his clothes off...

Their weddings are more real than your religion. <3

i thought they were gonna make out, too.

that was super fucked up.

I love the disembodied hand holding the mic. Why don't they splurge and get a $30 lav. Jesus. Oh, and they're incoherent assholes, too.

@6 Don't DO that to me, I totally thought it was real at first.

Posted by Margaret L. on July 18, 2012 at 4:14 PM

The cop wears a paper badge...

AND WHY DO WE SEE A MICROPHONE WHEN THE GUY IS TALKING TO THE COP???

I'm more insulted by the awful production value than by the bigotry.

The host has a look in his eyes I associate with mixing cough syrup and weed. Also, fake Ron Pearlman cop.

What?!?

Posted by jnonymous on July 18, 2012 at 5:00 PM

If gay marriage is legal and you run a red light, you will get raped by a cop. Or maybe he'll just give you a ticket? I hate when they leave you hanging like that.

Posted by blip on July 18, 2012 at 5:00 PM

I see Mitt's impersonating a cop again.

Posted by Lurleen on July 18, 2012 at 5:02 PM

Jesus wept, indeed.

"And don't get me started on something something schools blah blah blah." ...because I got nothin'.

I can't even describe that! Although, it would make total sense if you applied to the AZ "papers' law. Maybe they got their oppressive laws mixed up? Thinking is hard.

Posted by Belinda on July 18, 2012 at 5:15 PM

So. Confused. What was that?

Posted by tabathalphabet on July 18, 2012 at 5:27 PM

#13 wins the day...I totally thought the cop was going to start hitting on him. W. T. F. indeed.

Posted by b1anne on July 18, 2012 at 5:28 PM

Narrator looks very gay. I was hoping he would take his shirts off and start dancing.

Posted by SweetAzianDiva on July 18, 2012 at 6:01 PM

So this isn't a parody? We're sure this isn't a parody?

Because I can't imagine taking it seriously.

"That means law enforcement decides who's equal."

Ah, I get it now. He's supposed to be a Seattle cop...

This makes perfect sense to religious bigots: denying other people their rights isn't discrimination, it's simply disagreement-in-action...and now the law is going to tell them that they can't disagree anymore, that they have to embrace evolution, and if Obama gets his way, from now on drivers' licenses will only be issued to married gay people!
