<\/p>\nBritish \u2018Sunday Times\u2019 Columnist Cracks Easter Joke About Gays Being Pushed Off Buildings by Jihadists<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
British journalist Rod Liddle is under fire for an Easter column he penned in the Sunday Times<\/em> about an egg painting workshop in which he jokes about gay<\/a> men<\/a> being thrown off of buildings by jihadists.<\/p>\n Liddle\u2019s column mocked the rules posted for a \u201cmulti-faith vegan egg painting workshop in Hackney, east London\u201d which described itself as an LGBT-friendly event.<\/p>\n The event\u2019s description said \u201cThis is a way for local artists to express themselves on spring bank holiday, without feeling persecuted because of religious or dietary philosophy. You are free to paint whatever you want on the eggs, as long as it doesn\u2019t contain religious iconography.\u201d<\/p>\n Cracked Liddle:<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t wait. I\u2019ve already decorated my egg\u00a0\u2014 they\u2019re made of wood, by the way, so as not to offend chickens. mine shows a homosexual being pushed off a large building by a jihadist, which I think is in keeping with the spirit of the event. See you all there.\u201d<\/p>\n It\u2019s not the first time that Liddle has come after the LGBT community. According to Pink News, Liddle once got in trouble for targeting a blind, transgender Labour politician.<\/p>\n Cannot believe the naked<\/a> homophobia by @RodLiddle<\/a> in today’s column in @thesundaytimes<\/a>. Utterly disgusted.
