The California State Assembly’s “Champion of Tolerance” had a few choice words for a group of Christian youth who visited San Francisco in and effort to encourage young people to take a stand for Christian values in their life.
Leno specifically stated, "they're loud, they're obnoxious, they're disgusting, and they should get out of San Francisco."
The San Francisco Chronicle reports to following:
More than 25,000 evangelical Christian youth landed Friday in San Francisco for a two-day rally at AT&T Park against "the virtue terrorism" of popular culture, and they were greeted by an official city condemnation and a clutch of protesters who said their event amounted to a "fascist mega-pep rally."
"Battle Cry for a Generation" is led by a 44-year-old Concord native, Ron Luce, who wants "God's instruction book" to guide young people away from the corrupting influence of popular culture.
That’s right! The San Francisco County Board of Supervisors voted to officially condemn the gathering of Christian youth who only want to speak out against sexual content in modern media.
Earlier this week, the Board of Supervisors passed a resolution condemning the "act of provocation" by what it termed an "anti-gay," "anti-choice" organization that aimed to "negatively influence the politics of America's most tolerant and progressive city."

Luce said it was the first time one of his events has been officially condemned.
Now having visited their Website, www.BattleCry.com, I can’t say that I see a whole lot of references to homosexuality. It primarily speaks to sexually explicit content in modern media, including:
TELEVISION
This generation views 16 to 17 hours of television each week and sees on average 14,000 sexual scenes and references each year. That's more than 38 references every day.
INTERNET
This generation spends three hours a day online and is the first to grow up with point-and-click pornography. Almost 90 percent of teens have viewed pornography online at one of the 300,000 adult websites, most while doing homework.
MUSIC
More than 25 percent of teen-targeted radio segments contain sexual content; 42 percent of the top selling CDs contain sexual content
ADVERTISING
With more than $128 billion dollars in their pockets, this generation has been targeted by corporate America, who does everything it can to grow brands and profits without any regard to the moral decay of a generation.
Does Mark Leno actually believe that it is “disgusting” to speak out against music that denegrates women, television that promotes violence or the instant access to pornography provided to you youth via the interenet?
Of course, it is no supprise that he would declare these Christian youth “…should get out of San Francisco.” I guess “America’s Most Tolerant and Progressive City” will tolerate everyone but Christians.
