Gay activist seeks to Murder Christians who support heterosexual marriage

It's been five days now and still the DC police department refuses to characterize the attempted murder of pro-marriage Christians as a hate crime. It's outrageous. A gay activist tries to murder executives at a prominent pro-marriage group; he specifically complains about pro-marriage positions; and he's carrying foodstuffs from a pro-marriage restaurant with the apparent intention of leaving them as a "calling card" during his murderous spree of terror. And this is not a hate crime?
Can you imagine what would happen if a pro-marriage activist did something like this to a prominent gay group? It would be international news for weeks, and there would be unceasing demands for federal investigations. We must fight back and condemn violence against anyone. It has no place in civil society. But we must also fight back against the violent and hateful tactics of intimidation being pursued every day by gay "marriage" thugs and activists. They will do whatever it takes to intimidate Christians and marriage supporters including harassing people at home and work.
The attempted murder by the gay activist occurred just one day after the so-called Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest and wealthiest homosexual lobby, publicly branded the FRC a "hate group." The Southern Poverty Law Center, a once-proud civil rights group that is now nothing more than a hard-left attack machine, has also tagged the FRC with this epithet, and they've threatened to do so with NOM as well. Our hateful crime? Opposing homosexual "marriage."
Sadly, this isn't the first time that an attack against a pro-marriage group has been mishandled by the DC police. Just a few days before the shooting at the FRC, homosexual activists assaulted NOM's headquarters with a bag containing gay sex toys and soiled adult diapers filled with human feces. They also left a disgusting note designed to intimidate our hardworking staff of believers, who are doing nothing more than fighting for God's definition of marriage. The DC police sent officers, including an "LGBT unit" officer, to investigate the crime and almost immediately the LGBT unit declared this NOT to be a hate crime. As far as we know, nothing has been done to attempt to find the thugs responsible for this harassment. What does it take for the DC cops to declare attacks against Christian, pro-marriage supporters to be a hate crime?
One has to wonder if we are seeing the practical manifestations of what Mayor Vincent Gray declared in the wake of the Chick-Fil-A CEO's support for traditional marriage. Gray told reporters, "You know, when people don't support marriage equality, it is the law here in the District of Columbia...there just is no place for them in this city." It seems that the police department may have heard the mayor's message loud and clear. My friends, this is what we're up against in this fight. It is time for good people across the nation to stand up and tell the gay marriage thugs that this is where their attacks end. Today, right this very minute!
