Conservative lobbyists in Texas have sunk to a new all-time low. They just released what may be one of the most offensive anti-LGBTQ political ads in recent history.
The ad was produced by the antigay group Faith Family Freedom Fund and is in response to Houston’s Proposition 1, a non-discrimination ordinance that would ban employment and housing discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, two criteria not currently covered by federal anti-discrimination laws.

“If Proposition 1 passes, you could be fined up to $5,000 for declining to participate in a same-sex wedding or simply objecting to a man using a woman’s bathroom,” the ad inaccurately declares.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
(For the record: The new legislation will exempt religious institutions and organizations.)
The ad continues: “Don’t allow the government to flush your money or religious liberties … No person should be punished by the government because of their beliefs.”
Watch the vomit-inducing political ad below. Or don’t.

A toilet, how fitting, since this is no different from all the other *$HIT* the haters come up with.

This is how the entire right wing sees us… now how do gay republicans/conservatives justify their existence?

It’s good that in the future, when discussing how horrible much of the right wing, especially the religious right, were to LGBT and not only, we’ll have a cornucopia of evidence of how malicious, malevolent, vicious, aggressive, and yeah I’ll say it, evil they truly are.
They won’t be able to revise history and say they were on our side all along. They won’t be able to take credit for LGBT rights, like it seems some religious groups are already trying to do. One of the final nails in the coffin of the mass brainswashing that is organized religion.

I guess lying is only wrong when it’s done by non white xtians…

These creeps are confusing real people with the ass wipes that they are.

UMMM Isn’t defacing money a federal crime?

Ban employment and housing discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, two criteria not currently covered by federal anti-discrimination laws. I thought they were already laws? I guess that SCOTUS is going to need to deal with that issue as well.

Well I can see that these anti-gays have their heads in the toilet, let’s flush it now! :>)

A sick, twisted mind came up with this. Someone’s parents should be profoundly ashamed.
