"The American Family Association is shamefully exploiting the Orlando massacre to drive support for its anti-trans boycott of Target.
At least 49 people were killed and 53 were injured in the shooting at the Pulse gay club in Orlando over the weekend.
With more than a hundred now confirmed dead or injured, the shooting is the worst in American history.
Despite the massacre being a direct attack on the LGBT community, right-wing Christian lobbying group the American Family Association somehow thought it would be a good idea to use it to push their boycott of Target over a transgender-friendly bathroom policy."

They have been labeled a hate group, so i guess that sort of behavior is what you'd expect from them. I can't imagine how many self-hating and closeted folks there must be in an organization like that, but it must be a lot. The elder Duggar son was their spokes person...

just people one needs to be aware of like the KKK.

They are nothing compared to a sermon preached by a Baptist on Sunday and posted to YouTube.  He said the shooter did a good thing and called for the US Government to do more of the same.
