Read it out loud. Hear how dumb it sounds? Are we talking about rights for 'anti-gays'? Wouldn't it be less confusing to just say, "I do not support gay rights"? It may be grammatically correct, but it's not easily understood by the reader.
The sentence, "I never don't eat fish on Fridays", is grammatically correct as well, but not well suited for a headline.

"OPPONENT OF ANTI-HUMAN TRAFFICKING" sounds even worse...unless the mod knows something about Scalise that we dont. I think the point was the mod coudnt squash the story so he decided to be an asshole Gramwhore ashkeNazi in the comments because he didnt get his way and acted like a little child.

'I'm a strong supporter of anti-gay rights."
