American Family Association's Tim Wildmon Is Really, Really Mad

The American Family Association is uber-mad that the Human Rights Campaign is working towards equal rights for LGBT folks in the south.

Really, really, super mad.

And they really hate that they are being called out for the anti-gay rhetoric they dish out which can lead to gays, lesbians or transgender folks being bullied or harrassed or sometimes killed. Yes, killed.

Gasp - as if no one has ever heard of a gay person being assaulted in the name of religion.

Check what AFA President Tim Wildmon has to say below via press release:

“There is a war against the Bible in America and a war to marginalize the millions of Americans who believe the Bible,” said AFA President Tim Wildmon. “HRC is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in outside monies to undermine what Scripture teaches and to insult, denigrate and target those who hold to Scripture. For an organization that claims tolerance, HRC employs deceptive tactics and outright lies to attack those who respectfully disagree with them. This is hardly tolerance.”

The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest homosexual activist organization, has begun running television ads in Mississippi, Alabama and Arkansas. Named “Project One America,” the ad campaign is out to change the minds of individuals regarding the nature of homosexuality.

“AFA will not be fooled by this campaign to normalize homosexuality in the southern states,” Wildmon added. “And we hope others won’t be fooled either. The ads are deceptive and meant to mislead. It’s never OK to bully, harass or physically assault homosexual individuals. These ads tell outright lies claiming Bible-believers favor such hateful and violent practices. When you have to lie to make your case, it’s a clear indication your case is devoid of truth.”
