Tony Perkins Is Ever So Pissed At Apple

After complaints from LGBT activists, a few days ago Apple quietly removed an iPhone app for the Manhattan Declaration, whose signers vow to disobey all laws granting rights to gay Americans. Tony Perkins, head of the Family Research Council hate group, is furious.

Silencing opposition has become a winning strategy for the Left because fewer people seem willing to speak up. On issues like marriage, where homosexuals are clearly losing the debate, they'll simply try to put the question beyond debate. And until we push back, liberals will continue to throw the trump card of hate until there are no longer two sides to any issue. America is starting to play by their rules of "if you can't say anything nice about homosexuality, don't say anything at all." And increasingly, the Left is recruiting the big hitters of the cultural and corporate movements to join them. When they offend us, it's "tolerance." When we disagree with them, it's "hate." Speak out, America! Contact Apple and urge them to support real equality--and that means giving both sides a say.

1. There may be two sets of opinions...

...but there is only one set of facts. Libel is not a "side." Neither are promises to disregard the lawful rights of others.

2. Apple realized simple economics: Love sells more iPhones than hate.

5. Is Perkins ever NOT pissed at SOMEONE?

He strikes me as the type who has to be foaming at the mouth, all the time, or else in a quiet moment of introspection he might realize that he's an asshole.

6. Didn't he hear?

The Beatles are now on iTunes! Tony should download 'Lucy in the Sky' and pop a few hits of acid. That should ease his mind for a while.
