Tom Prichard, president of the Minnesota Family Council, defended his organization’s “legislative manual” in an interview with National Public Radio on Wednesday. The manual asserted that gays and lesbians are more likely to practice sex with animals and children and that they enjoy eating human excrement. After the documents were brought to light on Tuesday they disappeared from the Family Council website.
“„Prichard defends the postings as getting “into the nature of homosexuality and homosexual behavior,” but says that won’t be the focus of his group’s efforts to pass the constitutional ban.
“„“The focus of this campaign is the nature and purpose of marriage — not a referendum of homosexuality per se, or its lifestyle activities and behaviors,” he says. “I would see that as a separate issue.”
The Minnesota Family Council did not immediately return a request for comment by the Minnesota Independent. The Family Council is a lead proponent of a ballot initiative that asks voters to put a ban on gay marriage in the Minnesota Constitution.
As the blog As Good As Youpoints out, the research used by the Family Council and the statements made in the legislative manual have been debunked as false.
