"Gay Marriage caused Isla Vista Massacre" - Ken Blackwell
Quote:
The Family Research Council's (FRC) Ken Blackwell has sparked the ire of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights advocates by linking the deadly Isla Vista attacks near the University of California Santa Barbara's campus to the growing acceptance of same-sex marriage.
As Right Wing Watch first reported, the FRC's senior fellow told Tony Perkins (the organization's president) that the violence was the result of “the crumbling of the moral foundation of the country” as well as the "attack on natural marriage and the family” in a "Washington Watch" broadcast.
He added, "The teaching of sexual roles and the development of human sexuality in our culture ... when these fundamental institutions are attacked and destroyed and weakened and abandoned, you get what we are now seeing, and that is a flood of disturbed people in our society."
Essentially, "A heterosexual male with obvious metal issues killed countless individuals because heterosexual females would not have sex with him. Blame the gays!"
I don't understand why people give the FRC the time of day. There's no satire or humor to be gained from it. They're a fringe group who the Republican Party is quickly abandoning. They don't merit the attention.
On the real though, when's the Right Wing gonna stop blaming everything on the gays? 50 years back, they woulda been saying black rights were the cause. Always gotta blame something/someone besides ******, entitled people.
