Homo NOM's Final Solution
Posted by Dan Savage on Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at 10:13 AM
The National Organization for Marriage's "One Man, One Woman" bus tour hit Indianapolis today and the LGBT community came out to greet them. Since we're hospitable Hoosiers, of course, our welcome wagon outnumbered the small dog and pony show put on by NOM and local religious right groups.Over 250 LGBT and allied folks protested the rally, but only 40 fundies showed up. At least 10 of the anti-marriage equality crowd were NOM staff or local speakers; the rest of the group were older Caucasians and skewed slightly female.
One older attendee held this sign and the Courage Campaign, there to document the entire tour, got an interview with the man.
That interview is after the jump.

Oh boy, Leviticus again. When are these people going to realize that if we applied all of the rules laid down in Leviticus there probably wouldn't be a single Christian left alive?
