Oh boy, here we go again! Let me guess, a bunch of intolerant, closed-minded, morons are getting ticked off at digital same-sex relationships for no good reason? DING DING DING DING DING!
Game Politics reports that the Family Research Council, led by president Tony Perkins, is outraged at Star Wars: The Old Republic for allowing same-sex relationships in the game. In one of his regular radio broadcasts, this bigot states, "in a new Star Wars game, the biggest threat to the empire may be homosexual activists!"
Perkins continues on his rant with the following remarks.
The good thing about this is the fact nobody with even half a brain would listen to this guy and take him seriously. So don't worry, BioWare won't be changing their game to suit the wants of the insane.

In a new Star Wars game, the biggest threat to the empire may be homosexual activists! Hello, I’m Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C. In a galaxy not so far far away, Star Wars gamers have already gone to the dark side. The new video game, Star Wars: The Old Republic, has added a special feature: gay relationships. Bioware, the company that developed the game, said it’s launching a same-sex romance component to satisfy some complaints. That surprised a lot of gamers, since Bioware had made it clear in 2009 that “gay” and “lesbian” don’t exist in the Star Wars universe. Since the announcement, homosexuals have been celebrating the news, but parents sure aren’t. On the game’s website, there are more than 300 pages of comments–a lot of them expressing anger that their kids will be exposed to this Star Warped way of thinking. You can join them by logging on and speaking up. It’s time to show companies who the Force is really with!
