Supporters of traditional marriage are being treated as ‘bigots’
from C4M:
A top judge in the US has warned of hostility to traditional marriage supporters.
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said before the legalisation of same-sex marriage that it could lead to people who do not support same-sex marriage being treated as “bigots” by governments, schools and employers.
He said that US society is now seeing this come to pass.
Alito told a group of lawyers: “A wind is picking up that is hostile to those with traditional moral beliefs.”
In 2015, Sarah Wollaston, the Conservative Parliamentary candidate for Totnes, called C4M supporters “bigots” on her Twitter account.
Dr Wollaston tweeted her remarks after reading a C4M flyer highlighting that she had voted in favour of the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Act – a matter of public record.
Clearly irked by us pointing out that she had ignored the views of huge numbers of local people when she backed a Bill for which the Coalition had no manifesto mandate, she tweeted in reply: “Thanks bigots, I’m proud of that vote!”
