The "I sh*t you not" site of the day: The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property. The Hanover, PA-based organization describes itself as:

    a group of Catholic Americans concerned about the multiple crises shaking every aspect of American life. Founded in 1973, the American TFP was formed to resist, in the realm of ideas, the liberal, socialist and communist trends of the times and proudly affirm the positive values of tradition, family and property.

This group plays the victim card as it engages in a "pro-marriage" event in Santa Rosa, CA.

How can tradition be a positive value on its own?  Are they using it as a euphemism for "white heterosexual male Christian supremacy?"

Family is nice, but... aren't they the ones who have a problem with families?  "Gays shouldn't marry or raise children" and all that?

Property is nice too, but I doubt they actually support it.  I bet they'd love to steal my money to fund their churches and "faith-based" programs.
