After a long fight for that saw the LGBTI community endure attack ads by the No campaign, Australia has come together to tell Lyle Shelton to eat shit.
Beginning the second the victory was announced, thousands of people tweeted 鈥渆at shit Lyle鈥� at Shelton, head of the Australian Christian Lobby and spokesperson for the Coalition for Marriage.
Yesterday afternoon, while 鈥榤arriage equality鈥� was the top trending term on Twitter for Australia, 鈥楲yle鈥� was number two鈥攁nd number seven internationally, as users succinctly voiced months and years of frustration.
Shelton is notorious for telling people off for being rude to him on Twitter, so he might have a busy day ahead of him.
