“Right-wing groups continue attacks on Folsom Street Fair”
By Heather Cassell, Bay Area Reporter – October 4, 2007

Right-wing groups [“¦] were behind an airplane that circled last Sunday’s [Folsom Street Fair] leather festival towing an anti-gay banner.

Some fairgoers saw an airplane circling above the South of Market event with a banner “Jesus Christ: www.Hope for Homosexuals.com.“ The banner, supported by an anti-gay organization devoted to encouraging gay and lesbian individuals to become “ex-gays,” is linked to the Virginia-based Family Policy Network.

…

“Homosexuality is nothing to celebrate,” said Joe Glover, president of Family Policy Network. “It has grave consequences, both physical and spiritual … the hope of all who sin, including homosexuals, is the chance to turn from sin and embrace the redemption God makes available through His Son, Jesus Christ.”
