FRC's Tony Perkins: Facebook Is Cowardly For Deleting Bullying & Anti-Gay Pages

"If there were a status update for Facebook's entire site, it might say something like, 'Jumping on the politically correct bandwagon.' Last week, the social media giant officially friended the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) to 'end hate speech and anti-gay bullying' on the Internet. The new partnership, which made a splash in the mainstream news, is significant because it puts Facebook on the media's growing path toward censorship. Apparently, anything they construed to be anti-homosexual will be stripped from the site. Where does that leave Americans who morally oppose the lifestyle and want to help people find freedom from it?

3. Tony Perkin$ is worried that his ca$h flow i$ in jeopardy.
The checks from anti-gay, right-wing Christians don't write themselves.

And as Tony knows, one can't maintain a "moral" empire with ethical behavior.
