MooMu clearly doesn't subscribe to the Homer Simpson school of thought on the matter:
I like my beer cold, my TV loud and my homosexuals flaming

You actually have to make an effort to be creative enough to come up with something that fucked and stupid
In which thread is that? The recent threads are so hilarious that they seem to draw the worst in people

Yeah, I found that rainbow banner thread to be difficult to follow.

TOTALLY CALLED THIS ONE LAST WEEK. Kadaver can vouch for me. This guy's been suspect for some time; it wasn't just the rainbow-horse thread.

That thread is amazing because it brings out homophobes out into the open. Maybe they'll be annoyed enough to stop posting.
I imagine most feel too "insulted" by the thread and feel insistent on posting their negative remarks, willing to risk mod action for it. I wouldn't consider myself a "homophobe," but some on TL would undoubtedly label me such.... Yet I tend to lurk flame-bait threads like that anyway, so you might have a point.

Woke up, saw that TL is supporting homosexuals and was quite pleased by that. But my first stop is always to the ABL, I'd imagine quite a few bans already went out in that topic.

Sensitive topics like this one always bring out a few. They're sometimes so pitiful, you have to laugh at 'em. 
Edit: those banned and their posts, not the topics I mean, lol.
Edit 2: Told ya.

They are NOT supporting human rights, they are NOT advancing the LGBT movement. They changed the color of their freaking logo. If you actually want to do something about gay rights than fucking do it, don't pretend like you're changing anything when you're nothing more than a keyboard warrior. This bs is nothing more than an attempt to grab some good PR, and it saddens me that people fall for this. Really disgusting that TL out of all places would do this, but apparently their number one priority these days is their profit margin.
User was temp banned for this post.
Saw this one happen before my eyes. Surprised to see one come from the other side of the spectrum, hahaha.

I do get his point of view though, a symbol is just a symbol unless there is any force of will behind it. People are free to believe what they think something represents, TL needs to speak the fuck up and put an official news bulletin instead of making it seem like the marginal opinion of some moderators, or not do it at all. You have their attention, if you don't spread your message then people are just going to see it as a PR stunt.
"iamho was just temp banned for 1 week by Manifesto7.
That account was created on 2009-06-14 15:38:49 and had 2523 posts.
Reason: Did it ever occur to you that some people on the TL staff feel very strongly about, and are personally affected by, the issue? No? Then look up the word empathy for the next two weeks.
Profit margin... Fuuuucking moron."
Then why the fuck isn't there an official post about it?

I think those next two weeks are going to fly right by, almost as if it were only one week that he was banned for.

Ever read the gay starcraft players thread? Go there, especially at the beginning when it was being founded, and see all the people that said "wow, finally a place on the internet that is safe for me".
Are we ridding the world of bigotry? No. But we are planting a flag on our site saying that those who feel they have to hide are welcome here.
As for no official announcement, trust me, that is a topic of conversation at the moment.

Good. Don't misunderstand what I'm trying to say, not putting up a statement just leads to confusion and misunderstanding when it comes to something that draws as much PR attention as putting up a banner like that. Get on it my friend.

You should just redirect everyone to every, single post that has been judiciously banned for making an unquestionably derogatory, hurtful, and needless remark towards members of the gay, etc., community. Be like, "Hey. We ain't tolerating dumb stuff like this, 'kay?"
