Anyone who gets linked to this thread from outside the forum should be aware that not all hunters are juvenile bigots.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with Pete or anyone else being gay. Pete is an actual genius (Harvard, Rhodes Scholar, speaks 7 languages, plays several instruments, etc) who served honorably as a military intelligence officer and then chose a relatively low-paying career in public service to help his hometown instead of moving to a blue state and becoming a millionaire business executive or a senator by now. He's earned a lot better than the treatment he's getting here from much lesser men.
To look on the bright side, at least these guys are making fools of themselves at home on their computers.
They're not out leaving piles of beer cans scattered around campsites.
They're not out shooting road signs full of holes.
They're not out wounding deer by taking irresponsible shots at running animals from their truck windows.
They're not out spotlighting deer at night.
They're not out shooting humans they mistook for turkeys.
These kinds of guys do a lot of things to irritate more intelligent, hard-working, ethical hunters and everyone else in the outdoors, and being indoors making stupid jokes on the computer is probably one of the places they can do the least amount of harm.
