http://www.thenewcivilrightsmovement.com/davidbadash/roy_mooreOn Wednesday Liberty Counsel founder and CEO Mat Staver stood before the cameras and droned on in support of his client, Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore. Moore is under attack by the Southern Poverty Law Center and others for his actions surrounding the Supreme Court's marriage decision and his instructions to Alabama magistrates to not issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. The SPLC filed a complaint....
Staver referred to one of the people who filed the complaint against Moore as an "admitted transvestite."
Moore slammed his critics as "atheists, homosexuals and transgender individuals." At one point he referred to a trans woman as "her," but "corrected" himself, calling her, "him."
At another point, Moore said transsexualism is a known mental illness, or was, until 2013, and suggested it still should be classified as such.

Which is probably why the 1% still keep him in power.

Is Moore charging for admission now? How many did he turn down first?
