Springsteen Concert Cancellation Sets Off North Carolina Anti-LGBT Activist
Franklin Graham used the news Bruce Springsteen canceled his North Carolina concert in protest of anti-LGBT law HB2 as a springboard this weekend, launching a Twitter rant defending the discriminatory and unconstitutional ordinance.
The Charlotte-based preacher, anti-LGBT and political activist, and head of a non-profit that pays him a reported $880,000 per year, denounced America as a “nation embracing sin and bowing at the feet of godless secularism and political correctness.”Â
Graham also used the right wing’s false claim that HB2, which bans transgender people from using the restroom that conforms to their gender identity, somehow protects women and children, suggesting transgender people will attack them.
It’s unclear how being in the same restroom with a transgender person violates “the human rights of millions of faith-based citizens.”
And Graham, of course, offered support to embattled GOP Gov. Pat McCrory (photo, with Graham,) who pushed for and signed HB2 into law.
