Hispanic rally overwhelms Rhode Island..."gay marriage" hearing [Good News!]

Mass Resistance ^ | 3/28/13

Last Thursday's public hearing was effectively ground zero for "gay marriage" in Rhode Island. The hearing started early Thursday evening and lasted over 12 hours, until the following morning. Both sides were there in force.

But the biggest impression in the State House that night was definitely made by the pro-family forces. The huge demonstration by the Hispanic community completely overwhelmed the homosexual activists who thought they would be dominating that day! It was an incredible sight.

Incredible outpouring by pro-family Hispanic community

Even before the hearing began, both sides gathered in the main rotunda of the State House to demonstrate. A group of homosexual activists gathered in the middle to hold signs, chant, yell, sing their 60's "civil rights" songs, and basically intimidate people. It's their usual shtick which we seem to see everywhere.

But this time they were completely surrounded by hundreds of passionate pro-family people organized by the Hispanic Ministers Association of Rhode Island and the Faith Alliance of Rhode Island coalition, who gathered in that same area.

George Jonas refers to this sort of thing as “the sound of two sacred cows colliding”.

Some translation is in order. At the end of the video the Spanish speaking folks were chanting “Cristo vive, Cristo vive” - Christ lives, Christ lives!

Another reason the official language of the United States should be work, reason & faith.

It could turn into a wedge issue and tip some elections here and there. Thanks SoFloFreeper.

• ...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said. [Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften [immigration, gay marriage] stance]

• One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]
