Oh, burn!

John Fugelsang zings conservative radio host: ‘If you don’t like gay people, take it up with the manufacturer’

Quote:

median John Fugelsang clashed with conservative radio host Heidi Harris on Friday when Harris questioned the need for sexual orientation to be covered under anti-discrimination statutes. “Being gay is what sets a person apart from straight people,” Fugelsang told Harris on MSNBC’s Ed Show. “If you don’t like gay people, take it up with the manufacturer, because God keeps creating them around the world.” “Did I say I didn’t like gay people?” Harris shot back. “I did not say that.” “Well, stick up for them, Heidi,” he countered. “You’re a nice person.” Harris argued that in the workplace, only a person’s behavior could set them apart, proving that non-discrimination statutes like one that was voted down by North Dakota legislators on Thursday were unnecessary. “Why are we protecting a certain group of people because of their behavior?” Harris asked at one point, causing Fugelsang to facepalm. “Not only that, but how do you prove someone didn’t get hired because they were gay? You can’t prove that any more than you can prove somebody didn’t get hired because of their age or their sex.” “Being gay is behavior?” host Ed Schultz asked, cutting Harris off. “Of course it is,” she replied. Schultz pointed out that, because of the defeat of Senate Bill 2279, the state’s LGBT community can lose not only employment, but housing opportunities because of their gender or sexuality.
