Who Said This Will Surprize You

"the Gestapo tactics over Prop 8 - McCarthy-style blacklists, boycotting of otherwise gay-friendly businesses, apologies coerced out of individual supporters who made the “wrong” choice, enforced politically-correct donations to the Human Rights Campaign."
The person who said this was talking about his observations of how "the gay community was working itself into a frenzy over the passage of Proposition 8 - the measure to amend the California State Constitution to define marriage specifically as a union between one man and one woman."
So far this sounds like it could be any of a multitude of conservative pundits saying this. Not so in this case. In fact, this is someone who was very supportive of the gay community.
However, after seeing the above his reaction was: "I realized I didn’t trust the community anymore."
Now for the kicker. The author of this goes on to write: "And I’m gay."
Later he adds: "I hadn’t left the community, it had left me. When did the gays get so mean, anyway?"
People would expect someone like me to react this way to the actions in California, & wrongly call me hateful & a homophobe as well. But when someone who is gay feels this way about what the gay community is doing to push its agenda, it seems to me that the gay community better face the fact that the battle is lost.
H/T: Paul, just this guy, you know? (Another Viewpoint, has link to entire article)
