"That was a reason for a few Alaskans to call for a tourism boycott of our fair city. Really? If you're going to cancel your trip to our little hamlet by the sea because you feel your vacationing experience will somehow be hampered by a community that is embracing tolerance, well, try Somalia. It's not on the road system, but I think you'll fit in. We're never going to be the "Come for the fishing, stay for the cross burning and stoning of gays!" kind of place you're looking for. Sorry. Not sorry."

.. I have no words for how vile this paragraph is.  You have shown your heart and it's not the tolerant and loving one you claim to espouse.  The fact that you honestly feel that people you share a community think this way is very telling.  This hateful rhetoric that you speak of comes from your own mouth towards members of this community.  Moral high ground is a funny thing to preach when ones actions speak louder than words.
