Marriage Supporters Bullied and Intimidated by Gay-Marriage Protesters.

Breaking News: 7/21/10 Pro-Marriage Supporters Bullied and Intimidated by Gay Marriage Protesters New York & Rhode Island www.nationformarriage.org The National Organization for Marriage is on a month long 23 city tour to promote and protect marriage between a husband and wife. This past weekend NOM's Summer for Marriage Tour was met with aggressive protests in New York and Rhode Island. "This is the face of tolerance, This is the face of tolerance." "Activists that come and try to break up our rallies and silence us, the moment we allow them to silence us is the moment our civil rights have been taken away. Are we going to allow that to happen?" The Albany protesters came armed with balloons and rainbow colored umbrellas silently marching onto the platform during the rally. Others followed a Hispanic woman to the back of the rally bullying her as she tried to nurse her baby and watch the rally with her children. "Their goal was intimidating my family me and my 3 children, small children 5 and under which I think they did the job." "Shame. Shame. Shame." In Providence the protesters were even more aggressive shaking bottles filled with rocks targeting young children with intimidation and storming the podium as an attempt to shout down the speakers. "You better watch that kid or were gonna kidnap him." Capital police were ill equipped to handle the 150 protesters eventually calling in State Highway Patrol to help restore order. Supporters of the National Organization for Marriage remained peaceful at both events with many saying the protesters inspired them even more to spread their message of respect for human dignity and the importance of marriage for children and society. "We need to stand for our families and we are not going to back off."
