AFA's Fischer links 'raping puppy' headline to sexual orientation, 'born this way' arguments

by Jeremy Hooper

The link within his tweet points to this headline:

The tweet itself, which is a clear attempt by the rabidly anti-gay American Family Association senior analyst to like bestiality to homosexuality, reads like so:

[AFA's Fischer]

Because that's what people like Fischer do, and increasingly so. They are on a quest to diminish the "born this way" argument and the very idea of homosexuality as a sexual orientation by positioning it as a mantle onto which any and everyone could theoretically cling. The more ludicrous the example, the better, in their eyes. They want you to believe that homosexuality, if accepted as a valid sexual orientation, is a slippery slope toward pedophilia. And incest. And puppy rape, as it were.

The truth is that any puppy rapist who might play an orientation/"born this way" card would have a basis as much in heterosexuality as homosexuality, since both are sexual orientations that most people accept as being a natural part of who they are. But of course it's only gay people who Bryan has a political need to diminish.
