Banned Snickers Ad: Mr. T Hates Gay People?

Apparently, many gay rights activists are upset with Snickers over this Mr. T commercial where he tells an effeminate man to get "some nuts."

 

The result? The commercial has been pulled from circulation.

 

Admittedly, I am not a gay man, so I cannot completely sympathesize with the activists -- but, there is no mention of the jogger's sexual preference, unless one considers short shorts and a wimpy walk as quintessential characteristics of gayness.

 

As there is a very vocal contingent of gay rights activists on campuses aross the country, I propose this question to you:

 

Are these gay groups just being homophobic?
