The Walking Dead is set IN this time era. GAYS actually exist.

Surely some people must love the addition of a gay couple?

Focus on those tweets instead.

Big Smoke

Meh, I dont know what people get so worked up over stuff like this.

Besides, in the comic book one of em dies anyway

Auburn

Ugh get over it.

Moonview

What gay couple?

Lexiel

Of course they have an issue because it's a gay male couple.

Because Tara is gay and had a girlfriend and she's been in the show since S4, but of course mysoginistic heteros have no problem with Lesbians. Gays threaten their masculinity so...

Anyways, they can go ahead and stop watching, kill themselves, etc. We'll ALL be better off, including the show.

i hate the show so i hope the gay **** brings down the ratings

They added a gay couple?

spoilers. They will probably get eaten anyways; everyone dies on that show.

Phunk

They don't even have to think twice about accepting zombies, but a gay couple? Lord no!

Calling them ignorant would be too soft; stupid is completely applicable.

I wish a couple in a television show would cause a massive stir up solely because those characters are gay.

Homophobia is far from over.

Like, in a perfect world there should not even be reason to tweet **** like this:

Of course walking dead had to introduce a gay couple. ****in ********.

The ****? What even compels you to tweet that? What unfortunate areas and people did you grow up in and around?

WARNING SPOILER ALERT!

Quote:

As most of you know, we got acquainted with the new mystery man known only as Aaron. He claimed to be with a larger group of people who had been watching Rick and the group in the hopes of bringing them into their community.

During the chaos that unfolded thanks to Rick’s stubbornness, we finally got to meet the person that Aaron was so bent out of shape over and desperate to find. It turns out that it was his lover, Eric. Much like with any couple when they have been separated and fear that they lost one another, the two of them shared in a kiss.

This, of all things that could possibly offend someone, is what sent some people off the deep end about the series. Some of those people felt the need to take to social media outlets like Twitter to let the rest of the world know just how displeased they were.

I hate how the Walking Dead is trying to be politically correct by adding gay guys to the show

Quote:

@Kennardpwnsyou
The director and scriptwriter for the walking dead have pretty weird imaginations and story-telling. First cannibals , then now gay? LOL.

@Starscream_G2

@scgamecockfan32
Walking dead just pissed off over half of its fan base with the gay crap. NEWSFLASH not everyone likes gays. #WalkingDead

@scgamecockfan32 Why should that affect you personally?

@ViceSaintJay because it's nasty as hell to watch. Why should I be subjected to watch this?

Quote:

@AA_2105
gay guys on walking dead just made the show value go down..

Quote:

@JakeDaum32
Really walking dead? The one show that doesn't have ******s on it and you gotta bring two of them in. Really disappointed

Quote:

@TheRedneck37
I have nothing against gays whatsoever but Jesus Christ can't I watch one show show without gay people in it? #WalkingDead

EVEN MORE DISGUSTING TWEETS
