"The author of North Carolina's House Bill 2 has likened LGBT activists to the Taliban and called them a threat to freedom, according to emails obtained by the Charlotte Business Journal.
The publication obtained 152 emails supplied voluntarily by Republican Rep. Dan Bishop, the chief architect of the anti-LGBT law in response to a public records request by the Business Journal, which is seeking to have more released. The emails it did obtain, the subject of a story published Thursday, show Bishop defending the law and often citing his religious beliefs in doing so."
