The Gay mafia lets the mask
slip. Will Republicans seize the moment?
Patriot Update – Calvin Freiburger
– 9/10/2013
So far, redefiners have
enjoyed the benefit of seeming like they’re the ones who want only to live and
let live, with conservatives pegged as the ones using government to cast
judgment on gay Americans’ private lives. It’s a massive caricature, but an
effective one that appeals to many people’s intuitions when it’s all they hear
on the subject.
But this latest wave of persecution—fines, coercion,
intimidation, blacklisting, even possible jail time—turns that completely on its head. Suddenly, the
redefiners have assumed the role of the tyrants who refuse to live and let
live, and traditionalists are the ones facing not only oppression, but
oppression of a kind far more literal and tangible than gay couples who can’t
get marriage licenses but otherwise remain free to live and love each other
however they wish.
The truth is, the Left was
never going to be content with legal recognition for gay unions. Thought reconditioning via state power
was always part of the plan.
So now that the plan’s
latest step has been laid bare, let’s see how many well-intentioned Americans
who thought they were merely being gay-friendly by siding with redefinition are
willing to go along with it.
Let’s see how many Democrats
are comfortable having it hung around their necks.
Let’s see if they’ve got a
good explanation for why people should be relegated to second-class citizen
status for opposing something their party has only supported for a year—for
holding a belief President Obama claimed to share for the majority of his first
term.
Let’s see if The One can
square it with his belief that “our democracy might work a bit better if we
recognized that all of us possess values that are worthy of respect,” as he
expressed in The Audacity of Hope.
And let’s see how many
voters are convinced by assurances that churches aren’t the Tolerance
Inquisition’s next target.
