I just watched the AFA video. Scary stuff. But what struck me the most is that so many of their arguments can go either way. Free speech is OK for Christians, but not for LGBT organizations?

When the video mentions 10 cases of violent acts by “the gay agenda” against Christians, it is laughable, when so many more acts have been committed by “the Christian agenda” against gays, and for for a very long time.
