Fischer: ‘Gay Activists Are Like Leeches’

Bryan Fischer is still miffed by Chick-fil-A CEO Dan Cathy’s decision to withdraw from the culture war over marriage, declaring on his radio program yesterday that gay activists are like leeches for whom no amount of blood is ever enough.

Pointing to opposition to efforts by Chick-fil-A to open restaurants in New York City, Fischer cited Proverbs 30:15 to proclaim that “gay activists are like leeches.”

“The point here,” Fischer said, “is that with the homosexual lobby, you cannot ever give them enough. Don’t even try. There’s no point in making concessions. There’s no point in capitulating. There’s no point in yielding to their demands. There’s no point in offering them some kind of appeasement in the hopes that they will leave you alone, that they will leave you in peace. It won’t work”:
