Say What? The Chairman of FL Democracy League Compares Gays' Right to Marry to the KKK?

Dr. Eladio Jose Armesto, Chairman of Florida Democracy League had a lot said about Gay Marriage coming to his state



If you couldn't hear, this is what was said:
Dr. Armesto: "...constitution, which she has gotten the power to do. Then she would be having no power to rule. Her judgement would be null and void. No one can rule against the constitution. She would be doing no more or no less than the Ku Klux Klan did in the early part of the last century, where they hanged people for going out to vote. The people of FL have voted. The judge is able to respect that vote, uphold the rule of law and uphold the constitution. This is nothing more than a judicial lynching of the people of FL. This is a mockery of justice, it's a travesty. The judge should have thrown this lawsuit out because it violates her authority, her dignity, and her integrity as a member of the judiciary

(Reporter asks what he thinks she will do)

Armesto: I do not know what she is going to do. I do hope that she will uphold her oath of office, otherwise she will be in great trouble.
