At CPAC, The Marriage Fight is Over

posted on March 18, 2013

Buzzfeed’s Chris Geidner reports that at CPAC, “opponents of gay rights spoke to a nearly empty room, while supporters had a standing room–only crowd.” It was a signal of how far support of same-sex marriage has come in the GOP and in the U.S. generally. GOProud Executive Director Jimmy LaSalvia said, “Let me be clear, I do not believe that just because someone opposes same-sex marriage that that automatically makes them a homophobe. But there are, however, a few. There a few in our movement who just don’t like gay people. In 2013, that just isn’t OK in America anymore.”
