How can this guy afford to travel all over the country to pull these protests? And why does he and his tiny band of nitwits keep getting all this media attention? He's just a lone nut with his family in tow.

He may be a nut but the reason for his protest isn't.

Two of my grandchildren will attend this high-school and it's all gay,all the time.
