This past Thursday, failed Indiana Senate candidate and author of the book "The End Of America" John Price discussed his decision to leave America and move to Costa Rica in order to "flee from the daughter of Babylon and...not be around when the nation is destroyed.
From Right Wing Watch:
Price told Wiles that other Americans should consider leaving the U.S., which he said is “truly is the daughter of Babylon” as a result of the upcoming Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage.
“For Christians, there’s a really major troublesome thing coming and it’s going to be set loose on the country sometime between now and the end of June,” he said, predicting that the Supreme Court will “prohibit any state from establishing the parameters of marriage” and make “same-sex marriage the law of the land.” - See more at: http://www.rightwingwatch.org/...
I would like to go on record saying that I am totally with Mr. Price on this one. Not with the whole "daughter of Babylon America being destroyed because of same-sex marriage" thing. But with the "flee America" thing. Frankly, I think the entire country would be much better off if all of the nut-job fake Christians like Mr. Price would simply leave the country. In fact, I can name a couple of places that would be absolutely perfect for them, where they can be happily anti-gay around people who think like they do.
Russia - Putin's anti-gay laws prohibiting any and all displays of "non-traditional" sexual relationships is just the kind of law that Price and his fellow loons would love to see in America. You know what they say, "If you can't bring the mountain to Mohammed..." But then again, it IS Russia. You know, that whole "communism" thing and all.
Uganda - Not only do they prohibit any display of "the Gay", being Gay is actually punishable by death. What better place for a bunch of Old Testament bible-thumpers to find a home...as long as they don't mind all those Black people.
Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan - Pretty much most of the middle east, and it has the added bonus of being where Jesus wrote the Constitution. Of course, there's the Taliban thing, and the Al-Qaida thing, and the ISIS thing, and the Muslim thing. Just saying.
So, as you can see, there are plenty of places for homophobes like Mr. Price to flee in their effort to avoid God's wrath against the Gay...so long as they're willing to do without things like freedom of speech, religion, or just plain breathing. It really doesn't matter much to me. I've said before, if nut-job homophobes like this are so hot to leave the country, the rest of us should just hold the door open for them.
