Tony Perkins: Remember The Arizona
KKK-affiliated hate group leader Tony Perkins says religious liberty has been sunk by evil homofascists, just like the Japanese sank the battleship Arizona at Pearl Harbor. Seriously. Via press release:
Dear Joe, "Remember the Arizona" was the rallying cry of American forces in the Pacific during World War II. The fall of the U.S.S. Arizona, along with other ships and sailors at Pearl Harbor, became emblematic of the freedom for which Americans were fighting. Recent events have ensured that "Remember Arizona" will now become a rallying cry for religious freedom. Last week, amid a massive national misinformation campaign by the Left, Arizona Governor Jan Brewer vetoed SB1062 -- a bill that ensured the government couldn't force individual business owners to violate their religious beliefs. That's all the bill did -- ensure protection of the First Amendment rights of individuals. Fearing that religious freedom would slow the steady march of enforcing their comprehensive agenda, the Left began using their media allies to distort the truth and paint the bill as anything else but what it was. Therefore, I'm asking you to do what Gov. Brewer wouldn't: join me in signing SB1062. Together, we'll send a message that our faith cannot and will not be quarantined behind the walls of our churches.If you want to "Remember Arizona" you'll have to give Tony your contact details. Because his next assault on civil rights won't pay for itself.
