Quote Of The Day - Tony Perkins
"I know a lot about the Southern Poverty Law Center, and I’m sure it’s not comforting for them to know that I can share that information with the law enforcement community. This is a very dangerous group. We are not advocating that homosexuality be illegal. What we have advocated is that marriage should be preserved in our laws as the union between man and woman, the same as the voters have in Louisiana. Is that vicious? I don’t think so. Is there anything wrong with helping the governor? Is there something wrong with the governor helping me? Bobby has been my friend since I was in the legislature." - Hate group leader Tony Perkins, speaking to the Baton Rouge Advocate about his appointment to the Louisiana Law Enforcement Commission.
FACT CHECK: Perkins is lying (SHOCKER) when he claims that the FRC doesn't "advocate that homosexuality be illegal." In fact, FRC vice president Peter Sprigg appeared on national television to declare that Lawrence V Texas had been "wrongly decided" and therefore homosexuality should have remained illegal.
