Walker, Texas Ranger doesn’t like the gays.

Actor Chuck Norris has compared gay rights activists to anarchists in a controversial editorial published on an Internet site Tuesday.

The martial arts legend, who supported Republican Mike Huckabee in the 2008 presidential election, is a strict conservative who uses his traditional views to bolster his support for Proposition 8, the amendment that outlawed same-sex marriage in California.

In a post entitled “If Democracy Doesn’t Work, Try Anarchy,” featured on Townhall.com, Norris writes: Bitter activists simply cannot accept the outcome as being truly reflective of the general public. So they have placed the brainwashing blame upon the crusading and misleading zealotry of those religious villains: the Catholics, evangelical Protestants, and especially Mormons, who allegedly are robbing the rights of American citizens by merely executing their right to vote and standing upon their moral convictions and traditional views. [...]

The truth is that the great majority of Prop. 8 advocates are not bigots or hatemongers. They are American citizens who are following 5,000 years of human history and the belief of every major people and religion: Marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman. Their pro-Prop. 8 votes weren’t intended to deprive any group of its rights; they were safeguarding their honest convictions regarding the boundaries of marriage.
