I found this disgusting video on the Bilerico Project website earlier today. It is just scary that these ads were so common. It does make you think of how far we’ve come and how brave the gay community was. The ad warns boys about “homosexuals”. The film compares homosexuality to having small pox. It ends with the lines:
“One never knows when the homosexual is about. He may appear normal, and it may be too late when you discover he is mentally ill.”

I found this just as bizarre as you did and put it on my blog; http://thedogfatherblog.blogspot.com/
It's like looking at an Aunt Jamima label.
I kind of wonder how many self-hating, closeted gays were involved in the production of this film…
I think the most bizarre part is how nothing was shown or said about what was actually wrong. I especially like the cops pulling over the car, but not mention of what crime had been committed allowing the stop.
