S.F. Gay Museum Attacks Begin
The attacks on San Francisco’s new GLBT History Museum have begun, with SaveCalifornia.com president Randy Thomasson saying the museum is nothing more than a “propaganda porch.”

"This is not so much a museum; this is a propaganda porch," he tells OneNewsNow.com. "There going to be some people who want to believe in lies while they're visiting, but anybody interested in real history is going to find so many pages ripped out of that book."

Thomasson accused the museum of lying about gay history, ignoring the “AIDS epidemic, sexual crimes, and molestation, as well as the trampling of fundamental and religious rights in the name of ‘equality.’"

"I believe they'll have the money to keep this place open because it will become sort of a Mecca to them," he says. "And it's unfortunate -- celebrating a lie instead of acknowledging the truth."
