Bill O’Reilly: Gay marriage winning because of ‘threats and demonisation’
Bill O’Reilly has said that the tide has only turned towards same-sex marriage because of ‘threats and demonisation’
According to Media Matters, the Fox News host made the comments on The O’Reilly Factor yesterday.
He said: “One of the reasons gay marriage has come on so strong in the USA is intimidation.”
“If you oppose [same-sex marriage], you may become a target.”
“There’s a big difference in saying, ‘if you donate money to a traditional marriage cause, we’re going to hurt you, we’re going to find out where you live, we are going try to take your job. Maybe do vandalism to your home’ – big, big difference, is there not?
“There have been websites who have put people’s names on there. There have been a lot of that stuff.
“Now there are threats and demonization. And that unfortunately, has put gay marriage over the top. That is the technique that turned the tide – intimidation and harm. That’s what won it.”
