Sen. Ruben Diaz Calls on Gov. Cuomo, Media, to Pay Attention to Hateful Tactics of Some SSM Supporters

 

Speaking of civility and the need for it, also from Sen. Diaz's office:

"I continue to be the target of a vulgar campaign by a seething extremists who oppose my defense of New York's marriage laws.

The latest attempt to publicly attack my integrity is a call for written entries 1000 – 2000 words at a "F*** Ruben Diaz Festival” set to be held on June 11th. An online group called The New Gay is advertises the event: TNG Writing Contest Alert - "F*** Ruben Diaz: Gay Erotica Featuring NYC’s Number One Bigot".

I urge Governor Andrew Cuomo along with my colleagues in the legislature, the media, and all New Yorkers to take a close look at the hard core and vulgar tactics that are being used to change a law in New York State. I urge all to compare my non-violent, peaceful and prayerful rallies to protect marriage and the attempts to humiliate me because of my one vote in the State Senate. Add to that the intolerant onslaught of hate-filled phone calls to my office. Add to that to the death threats and threats against my family that have been duly reported to the FBI and the police departments of New York and Albany.

As a Christian, of course I love those who hate me and I will continue to pray for their souls.

Even though for the most part these attacks remain unreported in the news, the public deserves to know about them. As such, I will continue to document them so my constituent and my colleagues remain aware."

    Again, would like to see more of this reported to the general public. Let us face facts. Less than 2% of the population will take part in a homosexual marriage. They have to rely on straights to get their agenda approved.
    How many decent people bought their Kool Aid and now might be having second thoughts. There may be some previous supporters of SSM now going through buyers remorse.
    If we get this information out then I feel more people in the public will jump over to our side.

    Well, I just hope that Senator Diaz knows that he's not alone. He's doing a courageous thing standing up to the homosexual crowd like he does. He just belongs to the wrong party.

    I hope they have video footage of all the hateful, bigoted tactics of the SSM activists; they'll look good on the TV ads.

    yes mike. ESPECIALLY the clip of the preacher in the march saying that gays are worthy of death. Let's see anyone play THAT in a NOM commercial.

    Just record all of this activity by the SSM crowd and document it to presnt to the public. In this way they will see why SSM needs to be rejected.
