I haven’t heard too many people argue that gays and small town Kansas go together. But this guy was trying to break the stereotype by creating a little cubby of acceptance. He failed and if he’s smart, he’ll leave his small town before some misguided, Bible-thumping hick kills him.
Uh-oh, I smell a flame war… will Southern Gentleman come to Kansas’s defense? :)
This reminds me of a Daily Show joke, commenting on Barack Obama’s DNC speech about how “we have gay friends in the red states too.” Jon Stewart: “To which the gay friends in the red states responded: ‘Ick-snay on the ay-gay.’”
In all seriousness, it’s a big leap between saying people are prejudiced and saying they are prone to commit murder. Unless I’m missing some mention of a threat of violence in my brief skimming of the linked website, I don’t think your “death by Bible-thumping kick” comment is appropriate.

Yeah, that difference might only be a few beers and a pickup with a gunrack.
You can’t deny that he probably faces greater physical (even mortal) danger in a town that has actively persecuted him hi whole life.

First, it’s a hick, not a kick, and if you read the article, you’ll note that the townsfolk have a history of kicking the crap outta this guy.
