Anti-Gay Attacks on Rural Tennessee Man Continue

You may remember the threats against McMinnville, Tennessee resident Neal Anthony I posted about beginning in April of 2007.

What has where this guy puts his private parts of anyones concern? If he is not trying to do you then why does it matter? I never could understand why some people get their thrill worrying about someone elses private life.

I know Neal personally and he is a very nice man. I agree with the top comment why should it matter what he does in his life as long as he is not bother any of us. I know these attacks are comming from kids (punks) and they had to be taught at home. Their hatered has come from their parents and their parents a long with the kids doing this need to be pushished. This is the 20th century and people jsut need to grow up. Leave this man alone and grow up and go on with your lives.

Neal hang in there they will catch them and they all will pay.

i agree on that, its no ones buisness what some one does in the privacy of thier home, they just hate cause its easier than to love!!

I also know Neal personally and there isn't a nicer person on the face of this earth. Neal is a hard-working, tax paying member of his community and the attacks on his property are horrible beyond words. He's done everything he knows to do to stop them and still the attacks continue. He needs better protection from the police. Any of us could find ourselves in his shoes if we do something to anger a perfect stranger. Think what it must feel like for Neal not to feel safe in his own home!!!

I couldn't agree more with you Elizabeth. There just has to be something that Neal can do or even the police. The police just do not want to drive way out there in Erving College.

Neal I'm still praying for you

I don't see this ending well. Neal needs to get a gun.

You are right but that is just not him to shoot anyone not even this. People need to worry about other things that happen like people having sex with our children or people beating up women. I wish the people doing this would read this comments and get on with their lives and stop being so immature.

Well here we go again, some individuals are not happy and can't stand it if everyone in their neighborhood is not living the way they think they should. I don't I know this neal, but if he wants to be my neighbor he is more than welcome to. I personally don't believe in his life style and feel that he is on a road to self destruction of his soul. That being said it does not give me the right to vandilize or destroy any thing that does not belong to me.

Neal is probably going to go to hell for his life style,(that is for God to decide) but in the mean time given the chance he will probably make them a good neighbor.

1. Who do you think would go to hell more...someone that doesn't follow everyone else blindly like a sheep or someone that condemns others for not doing the same? "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone." How quickly christians forget their own lessons. It seems the only moral people are those without religion.

2. I would gladly go to hell to keep away from the likes of you.

Please be aware that I love all those of all faiths and ethnicities of whom God loves, and it is my desire to toil as a disciple of the Lord to lead each of you to the Truth and the Light in Jesus Christ:
"Whereas many of us have been abandoned to sin by God, and thereby may be suffering because of our own deadly sins and for the deadly sins of others, we must rest assured that we can also achieve salvation and retribution for our multitude of sins through the prayers and suffering of countless others of the faithful, and especially through our faith in Jesus Christ! God is therefore fair and Just! Is he not? He hands us over, or abandons us to our sinfulness – He saves us from death. And this salvific gift is not possible unless we ourselves will to be saved and subsequently take the necessary action"!

Did you just quote your own book?!?

Last time I checked, pride was a sin. Maybe you should look into that and also please realize that your book is ranked #3,287,414 as of now.

If you love all of the faiths, what do you think of atheism? Buddhism? Paganism?

[Teri inMcMinnville]

Why do people say he is going to hell, he is a human and goes to church. Why should that husband beating his wife and kids not going to hell why isn't that man molesting our kids not going to hell? God forgives everyone for their sins so I guess no one will be going to hell.

This is wrong and people need to be punished for this. If it was a straight man doing this in a different way with another straight man then that person would be caught and put in jail.

What these kids and I'm sure their parents are involved in this too need to stop and get over the fact grow up and leave this man alone.

You probably think you're being kind but it is your underlying attitude that is the reason these punks/teens are doing what they are doing. Maybe if you and others like you started preaching a little understanding, these kind of incidents wouldn't happen.
