Bryan Fischer: It’s ‘perfectly appropriate to discriminate’ against homosexuality

On his radio program yesterday, American Family Association spokesman Bryan Fischer quoted Martin Luther King, Jr.’s iconic “I Have a Dream” speech to argue in favor of discrimination against gays.

Citing King’s line that he dreamed that one day his children would “live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character,” Fischer argued that discrimination based on behavior is justified and absolutely appropriate … and, as such, “you begin to see the implications when it comes to homosexuality because you’re dealing there with issues of content of character and you are dealing with issues of behavior and conduct and it’s perfectly appropriate to discriminate against immoral conduct:”
