In North Carolina, more "Christian" hate

The "Christian" Action League has issued an "urgent" action alert, calling on the sheep to "help counter [the] pro-homosexual lobby".

The (obviously) sexually insecure/confused leaders of this hate group are commanding their blind followers to actively oppose HB 548 and SB 526, the School Violence Protection Act, which would require local school boards to amend their existing bullying policies to include sexual orientation and gender identity or expression.

The action alert specifically named as an opponent on this issue the group Equality NC, which it called "a statewide lobbying organization for homosexual rights." Now think about this: This implies that rights are a bad thing -- when applied to gays. And it implies that rights are something to be arbitratily distributed or denied.

The truth is that human rights apply to all human beings, not just the straight ones.

The Christian Action League is instructing its followers to lobby for the concept that it's OK to bully anyone perceived to be gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender, with no consequences.

I wonder how many of them (knowingly or not) have gay children of their own, or how many of them (admittedly or not) have gay tendencies of their own. (Hello, Ted Haggard. Hello, Larry Craig.)

And I wonder how many of them have been bullied for it.
