Must see: AC360 interviews homophobic Asst. AG in Mich. 'obsessed' with gay UM student



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Just watch the interview, which is embedded below. This is some of the most blatant homophobia you'll see on TV. Here's some background:

For nearly six months, Andrew Shirvell, an assistant attorney general for the state of Michigan, has waged an internet campaign against college student Chris Armstrong, the openly gay student assembly president at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.

Using the online moniker "Concerned Michigan Alumnus," Shirvell launched his blog in late April.

"Welcome to 'Chris Armstrong Watch,'" Shirvell wrote in his inaugural blog post. "This is a site for concerned University of Michigan alumni, students, and others who oppose the recent election of Chris Armstrong -- a RADICAL HOMOSEXUAL ACTIVIST, RACIST, ELITIST, & LIAR -- as the new head of student government."
This guy is really, really creepy. Best line from Anderson:
It appears, though, that you're obsessed with this young gay man.
Shirvell is obsessed. Creepily obsessed.
