You Must Be Tolerant of Me, But I Don't Have to Return the Favor

Actor Heath Ledger has decided to tick off two entire states in his effort to justify his queer cowboy movie, Blowfront...er, Brokeback Mountain:

HOT Oscar tip Heath Ledger yesterday compared US bans on his gay cowboy film to racism.

Ledger said he was not surprised a Utah cinema had banned Brokeback Mountain, which depicts a lifelong love affair between two Montana cowboys.

"I heard a while ago that West Virginia was going to ban it. But that's a state that was lynching people only 25 years ago, so that's to be expected," Ledger said.

"Personally, I don't think the movie is (controversial) but I think maybe the Mormons in Utah do. I think it's hilarious and very immature of a society.

How tolerant of him.
