Disappointing: Tracy Morgan's Anti-Gay Rant

Tracy Morgan, Comedian and star of NBC's hit show 30 Rock, took gay jokes to a whole new level at a June 3rd concert, according to an audience member named Kevin Rogers who created a Facebook post shortly after the show.

Apparently Morgan started with the usual homophobic vitriol, bemoaning the likes of Lady Gaga and other pro-gay stars. Morgan said "gay is a choice" and that "gay was something kids learn from the media and programming."

But Crazy Morgan didn't stop there.

He attacked the anti-bullying movement that has been sweeping the nation, criticized President Obama for being "down with" gays, and even went as far to say that if his son displayed feminine behavior he would punish him with violence. Rogers' post reads:

"He said if his son that was gay he better come home and talk to him like a man and not [he mimicked a gay, high pitched voice] or he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death."

Backlash from Tracy's fan base, which undoubtedly includes many gay-friendly 30 Rock watchers, continues to explode as news of the diatribe spreads. "Tracy Morgan" is currently a trending topic on Twitter, where many users have publicly professed their shock and disapproval.

"Wow. What a disappointment," wrote Twitter user @Twyst. "We're done, Tracy."

Ditto.
