Stop it! Stop calling the Sutherland Institute a "think tank" or a "leading conservative voice." They are none of these. The Sutherland Institute is an organization of hate mongers. Paul Mero has just been the head bigot, nothing more.
He is, however, responsible for getting the World Congress of Families to have their convention here in Salt Lake. The World Congress of Families in listed as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, who tracks the likes of the KKK, the Aryan Brotherhood and many others. The members of the Sutherland Institute hate and hate and hate with no end in sight. So, stop it! Quit going on and on ad nauseam about a "think tank." It just makes the Tribune look stupid.
