HOMOSEXUALS HOWL AND RAGE AT OPPONENTS
Instead of entering into a dialogue with those
who oppose their agenda, homosexual activists choose to hurl
personal insults and invectives at those who oppose them.
They believe this will intimidate and silence them. This behaviour
does nothing to gain sympathy for them or advance their cause.
The repeated use of these tactics also shows that they simply
do not have substantial arguments, logic or reason to counter
those who oppose them, and, instead, they resort to vindictive,
childish rage.
The issue of same-sex marriage has especially
caused homosexual activists to go into high gear with these
tactics. For example:
- REAL Women on CBC Online (http://www.cbc.ca),
May 18 - 28, 2004
In late April, the CBC contacted REAL Women
to ask us to write a column on the issue of same-sex marriage
for posting on its website. We were advised that the CBC was
requesting the article in order to provide "balance"
in their programming. This was news in itself since "balance"
has never appeared to be a concern for the network.
However, we were pleased to comply, and our
article was duly posted on the CBC website on May 18th. (See
reprint of the article on p.21.)
As a result the homosexual activists nearly went ballistic.
They were stunned that such an article would appear on "their"
network. An urgent request was posted on the homosexual
website http://www.equalmarriage.ca/
to respond to REAL Women's alleged "bigoted" opinion.
In addition to their vitriolic letters against REAL Women's
article, many of which were posted on the CBC website following
the article, the activists also made forty (40) complaints
to the CBC Ombudsman's office. They also demanded and received
the right to do a critique of REAL Women's article on the
website by a member of the lobby group, EGALE. So much for
"balance" on the CBC. However, our article served
its purpose, and for ten days (May 18 - May 28) the public
was finally exposed to another point of view on the same-sex
marriage issue on our national network.
- Focus on the Family Ad Campaign
During the month of May, Focus on the Family
(FOTF) ran a series of wonderful advertisements in Canada's
major daily newspapers and on major radio stations. These
delightful ads depicted a young couple with their son standing
in front of a crowd with the simple message stating, "
We Believe in Mom and Dad. We believe in Marriage." This
was followed by the message:
The family is a schoolroom for life, and lasting
lessons come from a man and a woman - a father and a mother.
We believe in mom and dad. Their marital commitment
to each other and their parental commitment to their children
is the foundation of our society.
The message could not have been simpler or
more reasonable.
Predictably, however, the homosexual activists
went ballistic again. Their website went into overdrive, as
usual, referring to the ad as hatred, ignorant, intolerant,
etc., etc. - a pathetic response to such a splendid presentation.
Thank you FOTF for your wonderful effort. It is very deeply
appreciated by all of us in the pro-family movement.
The ad campaign was scarcely over before the
Canada Customs and Revenue Agency (CCRA) came knocking at
FOTF's door requesting to examine its books. Since FOTF is
a tax-exempt agency and investigations are usually complaint-based,
it is not difficult to guess who made the complaint. For some
inexplicable reason, however, in this case CCRA backed down
and did not proceed with actually examining the books. However,
its threat remains heavy in the air.
- LifeSite News Under Attack
The pro-life/family website, http://www.lifesitenews.com
has also come under attack from homosexual activists. The
homosexual lobby group, EGALE, which pretends it is a moderate
organization wanting only equality for homosexuals/lesbians,
recently hosted, on email, a discussion on how to shut down
the LifeSite News site by way of harassment lawsuits aimed
at bankrupting the new service. This arose while lifesitenews.com
was receiving threatening e-mails from homosexual activists
including those of EGALE.
For example, one e-mail stated:
I remember hearing years ago that the KKK
was brought down by lawsuits that almost wiped it out financially.
I wonder why we can't sue LifeSite and family hate groups
who spread lies about us - for defamation. … Perhaps
we just don't have the resources or time to do this. It would
be great if we could though, it might actually stop the lies,
if one or two hate groups are sued.
- Homosexual Guerilla Invasion Tactics
Apparently, not satisfied with mere written
threats and insults, the homosexual activists on April 17th
decided to get physical and crash in military fashion the
national convention of a Calgary pro-family group called Concerned
Christian Coalition (CCC). This action was backed by EGALE,
according to its website. The activists, beating sticks, yelling,
swearing and chanting, attempted to stop a dinner in support
of the former Executive Director of CCC, Stephen Boissoin.
Boissoin is to appear before the Alberta Human Rights Commission
as a result of a "letter to the editor" published
in the Red Deer Advocate on June 17, 2002, which was critical
of homosexual activism in schools. Those in attendance prayed
while the Gay Militia shouted blasphemies and accusations
of bigotry. They shouted, "Right-wing bigots go away.
Gay Militia is here to stay." They remained in the room
for a considerable length of time disrupting the proceedings,
but left before the Calgary police arrived. The police are
reviewing videotapes of the event, but no charges have been
laid to date.
Conclusion
REAL Women, FOTF and LifeSite have all received
threatening and obscene letters from homosexual activists.
We have no intention of being intimidated by them. We are
carefully filing these letters for future use.
