More Hate from the Right. Tony Pekins Also Urges Kids to Kill Themselves

Right wing bigot Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council has add his shrill voice into the matter of LGBT teen suicide.  Of course he comes down on the side of "go ahead and commit suicide, you know you are abnormal!"

His despicable quote is below:
Tony Perkins, president of the evangelical Family Research Council, says gay activists are exploiting the concern over bullying — and twisting the facts. "There's no correlation between inacceptance of homosexuality and depression and suicide," he says. Rather, Perkins says, there is another factor that leads kids to kill themselves. "These young people who identify as gay or lesbian, we know from the social science that they have a higher propensity to depression or suicide because of that internal conflict." Homosexuality is "abnormal," he says, and kids know it, which leads them to despair.
