About 100 activists at the How to Take Back America conference attended the workshop on
“How to Counter the Homosexual Extremist Movement.” Workshop speakers Matt Barber and Brian Camenker urged people to be loud rabble-rousers when opposing the teaching of tolerance or sex ed in public schools. They said not to worry
about being nice or polite or liked, but to push God’s anti-gay agenda forcefully. “Christ wasn’t about being nice,” said Barber. Camenker bragged about having once sent two congregations to scream outside a targeted legislator’s home.
It sounds like the workshop contained all the over the top national anti-gay activists, all 100 of them including Sally Kern. From Right Wing Watch's overview it sounds like a lot of the talk was about how following their Jesus would stop the homosexual mania (over at PHB, there is more discussion of the religous aspects of the workshop), which as Right Wing Watch suggests, probably didn't sit well with Camenker:
However, after following MassResistance's antics these past few years, it seems Brian has never met an anti-gay zealot he didn't like or wouldn't quote time and time again. I wonder how many other anti-gay hate groups were respresented at this workshop, Southern Poverty Law Center take note!Camenker, who heads the anti-gay MASS Resistance, came out as Jewish, which made me wonder what he’d thought about the fire-and-brimstone speech by Rick Scarborough just before his workshop insisting that people turning to Christ was the only thing that would save America.
