Flaming Fool: Anti-Gay Advocate Lights Cereal on Fire in Protest of General Mills [FBHW]

In the "Hilariously Misguided" category this morning, Free Beer and Hot Wings give us this video of pink-shirted, Minnesota real estate broker Michael Leisner and his ridiculous protest outside of General Mills.

In the clip, Leisner makes it clear that he will not stand for General Mills' support of gay marriage. He then attempts to light a box of cereal on fire. Makes perfect sense.

The outcome is just what you would expect and hope for from a premise this stupid. "What a dumb ass," said Hot Wings, hitting it pretty squarely on the head. "Apparently Cheerios are highly flammable," said Free Beer. "The way they went up, you would think they're made of 80% gasoline."

Is it still a non-violent protest if you're lighting Cheerios on fire?

While we think everyone has a right to voice their opinion, it's cases like these that really test the limits of that freedom. Actually, who am I kidding ... this is delightful to watch.
