That the way it should be, if these bigots, doctrinaire, fanatics, extremist, zealots, narrow-minded person, hatemonger, white supremacists, are so against SSM (same-sex Marriage) then they should be proud enough to sign their name to it for the whole world to see, if not then they need to stay in their bigotry Closet…
Tom Prichard, president of the Minnesota Family Council, argued that if donors are disclosed it "would have a significant chilling effect on free speech. Even in Minnesota already it's gotten heated in some respects."
What’s wrong Tom tom, they don’t like being called Bigots and hatemongers…
Andy Birkey of the Independent reports on some of the biggest donors to anti-marriage equality groups that have already been disclosed, and whose money helped get the measure on the ballot in the first place.

In the gay marriage fight alone, he's given over $120,000 to Minnesotans 4 Marriage, and another $280,000 Minnesota Citizens in Defense of Marriage.
