Lester Feder Source: BuzzFeedGlobal anti-gay crusader Scott Lively announced Monday that he will run for governor of Massachusetts in a statement published on his website. [He is known for his] role in the creation of Uganda's infamous "Kill the Gays" bill. [In a statement he said:] The people of this state need a candidate who can clearly and unapologetically articulate Biblical values without fear or compromise. They need a candidate who will tell the simple truth that abortion is murder, and homosexuality is condemned by God (but that Jesus forgives and heals those who repent). [. . . ] The Mass Republican Party is solidly controlled by moderate to liberal "progressives" and the Democrats are virtual communists. They both embrace and champion the culture of death. With these two liberal parties splitting the liberal vote, a true conservative independent could win the governorship.------------------------------------------------------You may remember him from this article: https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,146982.msg1207706.html#msg1207706Yeah, good luck man! You'll be eaten alive here.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Mass. one of the first states to legalize gay marriage? I remember seeing it in the news paper when I was in middle school. If my memory serves correct then my response to this is Hahahahahahaha yeah, good luck winning in that state.
Quote from: Willow on October 14, 2013, 11:09:15 PMIt was actually the first, IIRC. I remember reading it in the paper in 7th grade.Jeez, that was 6 years ago.Ironically, it was Romney who signed it into law.
Quote from: Malachite on October 14, 2013, 11:13:46 PMYeah I thought it Mass was the first one to do so because that following weekend our preacher talked about us being in the last days because of that then. Gosh I feel so old lol I can remember being up in the morning about to get ready for school and there was this huge picture of happy gay couples that could marry. I'm feel grandpa.
Quote from: Willow on October 14, 2013, 11:09:15 PMEDIT; got it wrong, it was in 2003, and was the second state after Hawaii to legalize. November 3rd is the 15th anniversary of the beginning of legal same sex marriage in the US.
