plans to crash MI pride event thwarted by misspelling
David on Jun 5th 2007
The radically conservative American Family Association of Michigan had plans to crash the Motor City Pride event in Ferndale, MI by flying a plane over the parade with a banner promoting www.hopeforhomosexuals.com. This website proclaims that:
God desires to have a relationship with those who have gone astray. And while there is a great price to be paid for our sin; God has already paid it in full. Hope can be yours today if you will open your heart to Him.
Well, it looks like God had other plans for American Family Association of Michigan. Not only did low clouds and rain reduce visibility, when the plane finally did fly the website was spelled incorrectly. The misspelling read www.hopeforhomeosexuals.com.
The Triangle Foundation, Michigan’s leading LGBTA organization, quickly purchased the domain name and linked it to their website.
Thanks to Mike McFall of the Republic of M and the Triangle Foundation for bringing this story to our attention.
