George Takei Calls Out Anti-Gay Arkansas School Board Member

George Takei's hilarious response to anti-gay bully Clint McCance, former Arkansas school board member who called for more gays teens to kill themselves. (The views expressed here are those of George Takei and do NOT necessarily reflect those of the Trevor Project.)

George Takei is best known for his role as Sulu on Star Trek on both TV and film. He has appeared in NBC's "Heroes" and is currently a spokesperson for Sharp TV and a regular guest announcer on the Howard Stern show. George will star in his first Broadway role in 2012 in "Allegiance"--a story of a Japanese American family during WWII and the internment.

I was raised with fundamental traditional baptist values. I have only this to say. If you are the victim of gay bashing. I will personally come to your aggressors home and kill their whole family with nothing but my hands and whats around me.. Leaving them to tell the story.

I'm a cisgender male.

Most of the time, I'd agree with you. I try to be generally polite to people, regardless of their personal opinions. But in this instance he was rude, didn't try to convince me of anything, and was flat out wrong in assuming it was because I watched Star Trek. He WAS a prick, and so I asked why.

If somebody is going to be so rude to me, I'm not wasting my time being overly polite back to them. I appreciate it though!
