George Takei, whose always been fabulous, continues to be an outspoken voice of reason for the LGBT community. This time, he's addressing the marriage equality hysteria in Utah and the state's governor. From the Huffington Post:
"Gov. Herbert is consciously bringing harm to 2,600 citizens of Utah," Takei, an outspoken advocate of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights, is quoted by The Salt Lake Tribune as saying. "That’s mean-spirited. He didn’t have to do that. Your governor is trying to put toothpaste back in the tube."
The 76-year-old actor, who married longtime partner, Brad Altman, in 2008, didn't stop at that. "I’m stunned by his stupidity," he told Deadline. "Apparently he believes in governing by hysteria — that’s the only way it can interpreted.”
Takei is in Salt Lake City preparing for the Jan. 18 premiere of "To Be Takei" at the Sundance Film Festival. You can watch a tease of the film below:
