Hate Group Hot Head Balks at National Park 'Dedicated to Sexual Deviance'

When President Obama designated the area around the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, New York as a national monument, it was the culmination of two years of work by the National Parks Conservancy Association (NPCA), thousands of advocates and hundreds of partner organizations.

However, one retired schoolteacher turned hate group analyst is crying foul.

"During this [National Parks Service's] centennial year, President Barack Obama has decided that what the world needs now is a national park dedicated to sexual deviance," wrote Laurie Higgins, a retired schoolteacher turned Cultural Affairs Analyst for the SPLC designated anti-LGBT hate group Illinois Family Institute.

"In his unbiblical belief that homoeroticism is something to be publicly celebrated, on June 24 President Obama proclaimed that the 1969 Stonewall riot that took place outside a seedy homosexual bar in NYC and which officially marks the start of the social and political revolution to normalize sexual deviance should be commemorated."

Comments like this are relatively tame for Higgins, whose inflammatory anti-LGBT rhetoric has run the gamut from her annual crusade against GLSEN's Day of Silence to combat school bullying, to her regular attacks on same-sex marriage. In 2014, she claimed that it was LGBT rights supporters, and not the parents who were responsible for driving transgender teen Leelah Alcorn to suicide.

Even the Grammy Awards aren't safe from Higgins' poison pen. In 2014, following a mass marriage that included some same-sex couples during the awards show, Higgins had her predictable freak out.

(The Grammy Awards were) "a tragic freak show" and "a gawdy[sic] spitball hurled in the all-seeing eye of a holy God," she wrote.
