New Hampshire Father Has One Question for the GOP
New Hampshire Father Has One Question for the GOP
By Lucas Grindley

While Republicans focus their effort to overturn marriage equality in New Hampshire, one of the state's rank-and-file Republicans is calling on them to consider his family's story.

"Members of my political party and others know me to be a conservative who believes in God, liberty and family values," wrote JP Marzullo, a vice chairman of the Contoocook Valley Republican Party, in the Concord Monitor. "What most of you do not know is that I have a gay son."

Marzullo called on fellow Republicans to consider one question while deciding whether to overturn New Hampshire's marriage equality law: "If you knew your child was gay would you disown him or her?"

1. "God, liberty, and famliy values" are all abstracts ...his son is not. Maybe
he could reconsider his own priorities, and then consider what the modern GOP is all about.
