Few protest gay Methodist meeting
People who support the inclusion of gay Christians in the United Methodist Church continued the second day of their conference here with few protestors except for Ku Klux Klansmen who set up a tent and signs along U.S. 19.

More people showed up to protest the American White Knights of the KKK than the Hearts on Fire conference.

<snip>

J.J. Harper, the Imperial Wizard of the KKK group from Georgia, said he was surprised at the lack of protestors.

“This whole area ought to be filled with Christians,” he said.

Gee, Miss Harper ... did you ever stop to think that maybe some Christians have an aversion to hanging out with sheet-wearin', 'colored' lynchin', mouth-breathin', knuckle-draggin' Neanderthals like yourself?

1. No Democrat should stand anywhere except WITH those who
are Discriminated against. Being American means being able to depend upon your Civil and Human Rights - supposedly anyway. If this is not true for each of us, it isn't true for any of us.

Solidarity ALL!

2. The area was filled with Christians.
They were inside the conference.
