Bill Schmalfeldt: ‘CEASE and DESIST’!

Bill Schmalfeldt wants you to believe he is a victim. “Bill Schmalfeldt doesn’t have principles. Bill Schmalfeldt doesn’t have values. Bill Schmalfeldt doesn’t have beliefs.

LGBT Activist Declares: ‘We Need to Start Making Their Lives a Living Hell’

Have you ever heard of Dr. Scott Lively? Me neither, but he’s a conservative Christian who leads a group called Defend the Family International.
