On 3-11-06, my wife and I were visiting Asheville and saw (and heard) a protest downtown. What we saw was ugly. A group of preachers were on stage screaming about the evils of homosexuality under the guise of “supporting businesses with family values.” The preachers really did have the whole Hitler/public speaking thing down pat. And yes I said HITLER! Hitler was a fascist long before he started murdering Jews and that is what these preachers are – fascists.
There was one protest sign that read something like “If we ban gay marriage, will it lower gas prices?” It was such a clever protest sign I had to do a strip on it. As the tag line for Town Called Dobson suggests, I really wish all this wern’t true.

Benito Mussolini was fascist, fascism is corporatism, we’ve had that in the United States since WWII
Hitler was totalitarian, Bush is working on that now
