Debate Tactics

Michelle Malkin discusses one of the key groups behind the hit on Phil Robertson from Duck Dynasty, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD). Although they try to portray themselves as victims, it is clear from the group's activities that their true goal is much closer to what Malkin describes:

"GLAAD has worked tirelessly to marginalize and suppress the free speech of Christian leaders, Christian businesses and conservative talk-radio hosts dating back to their infamous Dr. Laura boycott 13 years ago. The group's mission is not about equality or defending against "defamation." It's about silencing critics, making open debate radioactive, demonizing people of faith and making even the slightest perceived slight a hate crime."

This is where our society is headed if people of good faith of all persuasions don't speak up. Germans failed to do so in the 1930s and look what happened. It can happen here too.
