Regular homophobic campaigning on Patrick St in Cork City
Telling people they should hide is a threat.
This man, regularly standing on Patrick St Cork is making a political attack on the queer community and its allies and should be met with a political response.
Reminds me of neo-nazis in Britain telling people they "should get back to their own country"
I looked up Leviticus 20:13. It calls for gay people to be killed

Depending on age a stern talking to might work wonders. Or go up and hug him.
Incitement to kill us. And a message that the murder will be the victims' fault not the killers'.
The quote he's pushing :i
Leviticus 20:13
New International Version (©1984)
"'If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. "
Why not counter-protest by standing right beside him and handing out flyers with something similar to this wording:
It's chilling to think that people like this had such control over the education system up until very recently. Somebody should quote a few chapters and verses out of the Ryan Report to him.

Participants consisted of a group of homophobic men and a group of nonhomophobic men.
The men were exposed to sexually explicit erotic stimuli consisting of heterosexual, male homosexual, and lesbian videotapes, and changes in penile circumference were monitored. They also completed an Aggression Questionnaire (A. H. Buss & M. Perry, 1992). Both groups exhibited increases in penile circumference to the heterosexual and female homosexual videos.
Only the homophobic men showed an increase in penile erection to male homosexual stimuli.
The groups did not differ in aggression.
Homophobia is apparently associated with homosexual arousal that the homophobic individual is either unaware of or denies.

I wonder is this guy connected with the recent leafleting of Cork churches with Youth Defence pamphlets.

I've seen him in Cork City Library. Does anybody know him?
