CNN contributor LZ Granderson took failed Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli (R) to task on Tuesday over his support of Arizona’s SB 1062, which would effectively legalize discrimination against the LGBT communities in the name of “religious freedom.”
“Are you wrapping your homophobia around the Bible and trying to find scripture to justify your homophobia?” Granderson — a gay man who identifies as a practicing Christian — asked Cuccinelli. “Just because you’re uncomfortable with something does not mean it’s against your religious faith.”
“And just because you disagree with me doesn’t mean I’m a homophobe, does it?” Cuccinelli replied. “Will you agree to that? Will you have an intellectual disagreement that isn’t personalized?”
“We all know your history,” Granderson told the former Virginia attorney general. “You’ve made several remarks over the years that I would classify as homophobic. I would say you, personally, are probably a homophobe. ”
