Flip Benham crashes gay weddings in North Carolina

http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/flip-benham-crashes-gay-weddings-north-carolina

Flip Benham, minister and father of home-flipping show guys the Benham Brothers, is now crashing gay weddings in North Carolina. On the one hand, he's a jerk for disturbing the peace. On the other hand, maybe he'll get arrested and lose money!

I don't see how this is going to get him any good publicity for his cause, though.

already cancelled. It's kind of a shame they were going to actually be doing something good. But, their vile message has ruined that.
