Tony Perkins, of the Family Research Council, equates being gay to adultery and alcoholism


The president of the Family Research Council slammed the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community once again, condemning Pride month while equating LGBT people with adulterers and alcoholics.
