Fischer: Criminalize Homosexuality, For the Love of Black Men

Bryan Fischer never fails to be an endless source of Fringe Factor material. This weekend, the American Family Association spokesman and right wing radio host paid tribute to National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness day by giving a new motive to his existing war on homosexuality: his love for black males. Fischer misread a CDC fact sheet from 2010 about black males in the U.S., saying that they make up “six percent of the population”—it’s 12 percent—and “44 percent of HIV” infections in the country. “This is black genocide,” he declared, revealing that he is also under the impression that being gay might not exactly be legal in the U.S.: “If you are for the legalization of homosexuality, you are for the acceptability of homosexuality, you are for the normalization of homosexuality, you do not care about black males. You have no compassion in your black heart for black males because they're being decimated by HIV/AIDS ... So why am I opposed to the normalization of homosexual behavior? Because I love black males. I want black males to live long, prosperous, healthy, disease-free lives.”
