Finally, this conceited asshole that's biphobic, racist, and transphobic deserves it.

Dan Savage is a transphobic and generally oppressive rich white cis gay man who came to Eugene, OR on Halloween weekend. The Dan Savage Welcoming Committee let him know that he can't be a douche with impunity. On November 1st, 2011, an operative of the Dan Savage Welcoming Committee (DSWM) glitterbombed Dan while he was giving a Q&A at the University of Nike's Ford Alumni Center in Eugene, Oregon. During this session, the operative leapt to the stage and poured glitter over Dan's head as they shouted, "Dan Savage is a transphobe!"

As they turned tail, they added, "Glitterbomb courtesy of the Dan Savage Welcoming Committee," and just before they got out the door, "He's a racist and misogynist and a rape-apologist, too!" The operative then fled the scene. The DSWC is a memberless organization, and the only point of unity is that we have a problem with Dan Savage for anti-oppressive reasons. We encourage others who share our sentiments to let him know exactly how they feel wherever he goes. He has a huge voice due to his fame; we have to be creative to get heard over the din.

Why are they activists? What's the point in that? I doubt anybody would take them seriously after that tomfoolery. Might as well shout "Fanny licker!" at him.:rolleyes:

He was giving a Q&A session! What better way to voice their objections to him than that? If they did it every time he gave a Q&A I'm sure they'd get their points across for ALL to hear and to be aware of his bs.

All they are doing with glitter bombs is being embarrassing idiots, and his audience are non the wiser.
It's just silly!
