How did you "come across" a story this old without searching for specific key words/phrases?

Anyway, since posting this, the man has become a Mormon and renounced his homosexual life style.


probably fell victim to facebook click bait

Flags to fly less than half-staff over gay marriage ruling
Thesalemnewsonline.com ^ | 07-13-2015 | Andrew Sheeley

Posted on 7/13/2015, 4:16:24 PM by Currentriverrat

The Dent County Commission voted unanimously Monday to observe one year of "mourning” over the Supreme Court’s June 26 decision that gay couples have the constitutional right to marriage.

The observance will come in the form of lowering the flags at the Dent County Courthouse and Judicial Building to below half-staff on the 26th day of the month from July 2015 to June 2016.

The vote came after Presiding Commissioner Darrell Skiles filed a letter into the public record protesting, “the U.S. high court’s stamp of approval of what God speaks of as an abomination.”

The letter details Skiles’ opposition to gay marriage and proposes lowering of the flags so “all who see these flags at this lowered position be reminded of this despicable Supreme Court travesty,” he wrote.

Joining Skiles in the unanimous vote were commissioners Gary Larson and Dennis Purcell.

Give it a few years and liberal atheists will be supporting this type of argument.


I'd never support such a blatant assault on free speech.

Also, look at the ACLU. They've defended Nazis, Rush Limbaugh, and etc all in the name of free speech. The very hardcore liberals have their principles in check about the first amendment.

...unless it's Christians. There's a reason some people derisively call them the anti-Christian litigation union.

Not hyperbole. Slowly liberals will begin to think Christian doctrine is hate speech that causes harm to society, and thus it should be regulated. Give it time.
