FRC Cheers Manif Pour Tous

Forget about all those associations with the violent French Spring, the neo-Nazi National Front, and the Catholic theocrats of the Civitas Institute.  Never mind the riots, the gay bashings, the thousands of arrests or the injured policemen.  Because the Family Research Council wants you to know that Manif Pour Tous is doing God's work.

We can take inspiration from those young Frenchmen and women who are standing for the laws of Nature and of Nature’s God. They are demonstrating for the future of all—truly a Manif pour Tous. The Manif pour Tous is happy to use revolutionary imagery. Our own TEA Party raises up “Dont Tread on Me” flags.

The French raise up the tricolor and march wearing Liberty caps. They’re not talking violence, don’t worry. But they are speaking of removing weak-kneed politicians from office. They are planning to challenge those on the right who fail to stand for the deepest values of their own constituents. God bless them!

Throughout the French provinces—what is called La France Profonde—we see a movement arising. It is a gathering storm, not a spent force. The rulers in Paris may have to take note. When the news first came to King Louis XVI of the storming of the Bastille, he asked: “It is a revolt?” His attendant answered: “No, Sire, it is a revolution.”
