Ian Mckellen supports Indignation 2007

[Xasoroth]

Praise be, Sir Ian McKellen! You are a model of a man if ever I saw one.

[korkiwi]

He looks rather nice with white hair actually...

[buffykidd1971]

oh I love him... he does so much for the LGBT community and stands up for us.. thank you xx

[zydarking]

Well, if Singapore wants to decriminalize homosexuality, then there should be no problem. After all, what other consenting adults do behind closed doors is no one's business. My only worry is that once decriminalized, certain elements will attempt to bite off more than they can chew, if you get my meaning.

[Dracullia]

This is one of the people in this world i must meet before i die/he dies!!!

[GHEEPHUA]

SIR Ian McKellen, you are truly a role model and an inspiration! Thank you for speaking the truth and stand up against 377a.

[villibaby]

IAN MCKELLEN!! HE IS BEST , no the best , HE IS BEST

[goodsoninc]

Ian is a living legend

[GameDork8]

So... Ian Mckellen is ACTUALLY gay?

[goodsoninc]

[SheilaCarterFan23]

[XxShadow22xX]

Thanks you, Ian! You are an awesome man!

[CardinalPirelli]

Thank you, Sir Ian, if you are on our side, there is nothing to be afraid of.

[christophermn]

Why is he so nervous? Is he still ashamed of being gay deep down in his heart?

[SheilaCarterFan23]

u r a fucking faggot go to hell fagtard ur gay fucker dumbass

[QuixoticTendencies]

@SheilaCarterFan23 I smell troll.

[luvlylizzie]

i wish i could grow up and BE sir ian

[johnfinbarburke]

hee ian is da man ... gandalf is fuckin frodo

[aasd5]

what is/means 377?

[DavidRichardLord]

377a is an old British law still being used in Singapore, and basically it criminalises homosexuality. Sir Ian is right, it's a very old law and should have been scrapped a long time ago.

[gariadara]

Sons of perdition! May sweet God smite them and all their kind with His everlasting Wrath! (I'm referring to the bigots here)

[DrQuatermain]

Shut the fuck up, I hope YOU go to hell.

[gariadara]

that makes you a bigot...and boy, can you read (u know, what's in the parentheses. rolls eyes).

[HARUTUNYANAREG]

MUAHAHAH GAYY GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY

[Avidfan19]

Yes...well done....he is Gay, and he is talking about a horrid law....what of it?

377A sucks

[Steksi]

Concordia Civis Sir Ian, you know what I mean ;)...

[bnmc07]

I love you Sir Ian! Thank you so much for all you've done.

[joeknowswhoheis]

He really is the nicest man you could ever meet - I met him after a performance of King Lear in London and he's such a nice guy :)

And an amazing actor.

[HARUTUNYANAREG]

fuck this gay chris lee forever

[marsupius]

are you saying you want to fuck him because he's gay or because he resembles Christopher Lee?

[michellelo93]

He is gay?? i didnt know!

[Falloutmoon]

he didn't either until 2 years ago... right? :)

[thetrinsic]

i dont care if he is gay he is a damn good fucking actor so fuck off all you racist and i hear is he is the nicest old man you will ever meet

[kyloooooo]

so what your saying is that any one can do whatever they want but its ok as long as there a nice person huh?

[Falloutmoon]

I think everyone can screw any one who is a consenting legal adult. I don't see how that anyone's business to know what you would rather stick your penis in...

Let people be themselves I say...

[23hidingfromyou]

i know i'm being a dumbass but what is 377a?

[michellelo93]

Its a penal code in singapore saying that gay sex is illegal

[Dhammawitt]

Has anyone wondered why 377a ever did exist?

It might be there for a good reason...

[xShadow22x]

What is so good about not being able to express love? Love is based on what is in the heart; not on gender.

[binayakR0x]

We did. There isn't.

[AchmedDeedit]

How can you be 'openly gay'? You cant be 'openly black'

[janustwentythree]

Black is something that people can see - gay isn't. Being open about it is the only way people can know.

[AchmedDeedit]

Trust me ive seen gay and they werent open about it.

[Midsten]

I'm honoured to walk the same earth as he.

"There are other forces of work besides those of evil."

[Skiebler]

Ian is truly such an amazing person :)

[eltonROCKSMYSOCKS]

Such an amazing man! Truly my idol!

[InThisLove]

Thank you Sir Ian.

[danholy]

OMG, it's Gandalf!

[Levesque999]

This is why HE's winful and Crocker is an idiot

[cityboyz1uk]

Thank you so much Sir Ian.

[midnightkisses61]

Thank you Ian McKellen for standing up for human beings. Such a classy old man, you are amazing!

[goodwyrd10]

your obvious lack of insults and ignorant comments truly makes my day (its not as mean when you call me a faggot twice). Just because I think you're a fucking redneck doesn't mean I'm gay, it just means I'm smarter than you. No one respects you - seriously I asked around, half the people I asked hope you hang yourself tonight ; )

[lavigne45]

i salute you. =)

[morebliss]

God I love that man! Thank you for posting this.

[Avidfan19]

Ian Mckellen...You are my Hero!. xoxoxoxoxoxo

[BuyingSoulsOver]

yes~! Ian McKellen! speaking out and stuff! good.

[hippyfriend]

Thank you so much, it is a relief to finally come across a video with a gay theme which (so far) is free from homophobic comments. We have to beat Youtube hate.

[thespiffer]

Ian Mckellen! :D

[Eaststar]

THANK YOU Sir Ian, for coming to Singapore and for so openly and directly speaking out for us, whose voices have too long been silenced. So many celebrities come to our shores but few, if any, have so directly defended us. As Elie Weisel said, "the opposite of love is not hate... the opposite of love is indifference." Thank you for not being indifferent.

[gssq]

In that case, I suppose it's better to hate than to be indifferent.

[wadde]

why?

[gssq]

Love is presumably a good thing. The opposite of a good thing is presumably a bad thing.

What lies in between is presumably less good than one extreme yet less bad than the other.

So hate is better than indifference.
