Hatred Bus Gets Messages for Gay Marriages in NYS
The New Yorker’s Family Research Foundation, NOM financed, “Mayday For Marriage Tour” is on the road and made it’s first stop today in Elmira, N.Y.
The group bums around the Empire State in their Winnebago pushing their message that marriage should only be between a man and a woman.
Says NYFRF’s Reverend Jason McGuire, “In same-sex marriage relationships we’re intentionally denying children a mom or a dad. That’s just not right and just not good public policy. We want to encourage marriage between a man and a women.”
Of course, the crux of their argument is, “There is nothing more foundational to the stability of our state than the family. Marriage matters, because strong families mean a strong state. New York’s elected officials cannot ignore the clear teachings of a Divinely-ordained plan for the family and expect God’s blessing on our state.”
Barry Keller, of Wellsburg, who, notwithstanding the fact that the societal collapses of the Hittite Empire, theMycenaean civilization, the Western Roman Empire, the Mauryan and Gupta Empires in India, the Mayas, the Angkor in Cambodia, and the Han and Tang dynasties in China had absolutely nothing to do with marriage in any way, said, “I’ve always been a student of history and the marriage is at the very core of civilization. Anytime through history when that institution has failed or lost strength, literally, civilization has collapsed.”
Elmira City Mayor John Tonello said, “I recognize there are other issues regarding sanctifying a marriage but that’s different. Under the law of the United States of America, in states like New York, you have special rights granted to you. I’m hopeful it passes the state legislators this year and gay marriage is approved.”Many southern tier neighbors agree. Dozens of fans posted on our Facebook wall about the issue, like Amanda, who posted “Full 100% support. We are all equal.”Robert posted “Let them marry. We have bigger issues in New York State to worry about.”
The “Mayday For Marriage” hate bus will continue to roll through New York State till the end of the month, with their last stop at the New York State Capitol.
