Matt Barber Lies About Gay Legislator
Topic: WorldNetDaily

Professional gay-basher Matt Barber's latest column -- published at WorldNetDaily and CNSNews.com -- carries the headline "‘Gay’ Lawmaker to Christians: ‘We’ll Take Your Children’."

Just one problem: Nobody said that. Nowhere in his column does Barber directly quote anyone saying, "We'll take your children."

What Barber is presumably referring to is an "openly homosexual" politician in New Jersey defending the state's new law against forcing minors to undergo dubious same-sex reparation therapy:

On Wednesday, New Jersey Assemblyman Tim Eustace, who sponsored the bill and is openly homosexual, bombastically compared change therapy to “beating a child” and suggested that the government take children seeking change away from their parents. He told Talk Radio 1210 WPHT, “What this does is prevent things that are harmful to people. If a parent were beating their child on a regular basis we would step in and remove that child from the house. If you pay somebody to beat your child or abuse your child, what’s the difference?”

Notice at no point does Eustance say "we'll take your children." And complaining that Eustace "bombastically compared" reparation therapy to child abuse is rich from someone who, earlier in the column, bombastically called bans on reparative therapy for minors the “Jerry Sandusky Victimization Act.”
