So, The Gay-Hating ‘Cheerios Guy’ Has Already Died

Will Jon's laughter turn to tears? (Probably not.)

What can you say about a middle-aged man who rocketed to infamy after lighting a box of Cheerios at the General Mills headquarters to protest gay marriage and then dropped dead a few days later? According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune today via Joe My God, Michael L. Leisner, 65, actually died last Saturday in his car, of an apparent heart attack. It’s hard to say anything about this odd situation other than it’s sad that Mr. Leisner didn’t have time to jump over onto the right side of history before his death.

Here’s Jon Stewart making fun of the Cheerios man last week (later in the video):
