If the left’s response to Chick-fil-A [1]
proves anything, it’s that the left has a clear method of attacking
anyone who supports a traditional definition of marriage. Label that
person a bigot and then protest everything they do.
This
of course is the same plan of action applied to actor Kirk Cameron.
During his 'Love Worth Fighting For' conference held in Ocean City,
N.J., July 27, over 6,000 married couples showed up seeking counsel on
how to better their marriages. Instead they found themselves the target
of a protest launched by Ocean City's LGBT community, Ocean Grove
United.
But
the protesters were protesting an event that had nothing to do with
same-sex marriage. In a statement emailed to The Christian Post, a
spokesman from the event stated that the sole focus was on
“strengthening marriage” and the event “had nothing to do with gay marriage.” [2]
When
Cameron found out the group was going to be protesting he extended an
offer stating, "I think everyone who comes to the 'Love Worth Fighting
For' event in Ocean Grove or anywhere else we do this event will feel
nothing but welcomed”. Instead the group declined his offer and stood
outside with posters reading “"Kirk! Your Words Hurt Us!”
Ever since Cameron appeared on Piers Morgan Tonight saying "Marriage is defined by God in the garden between Adam and Eve, one man, one woman for life, til-death-do-you-part" [3], the left has been attacking him. First they tried to label him as a bigot [4] and now they are protesting everything he does, even when it has nothing to do with same-sex marriage.
