Family Research Council drive to prevent new ABC show from airing successful
 

http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=195536

Notice the FRC only got a one line last sentence mention in the article. They (along with other "family" organizations) had a huge drive to complain about this show and threaten ABC advertisers with boycotts. This organization is the same one who says 2257 is a another "tool" they can use to "get rid of pornography".

If you're not familiar with the FRC I posted numerous links to info about them and their activities in this thread:

omg, so they want it pulled because the christian family might be one people hate? Holy crap...

This organization is NUTS.

Are you really that surprised?
Remember the crusades?
I was raised catholic.....these people ARE nuts.

Fucking religious people.

STUPID Fucking religious people.

Correction: They got it pulled.

people need to get spiritual & stop listening to these christian crusaders

being close to god doesn't mean you'll burn in hell for masturbating

idiots

Don't underestimate Pat Trueman and company. They get results. If you haven't read the links I posted in the other thread I highly recommend you do :warning

Bump for the night crowd.
These are the same folks that got Howard Stern pulled off of many radio stations.What he doesn't say is that the "outcry" he speaks of is their organization stuffing the complaint box.

true, but unlike our industry, they are very well organized

Exactly. They have an online obscenity report form which has generated over 50,000 obscenity complaints sent to every state attorney in the US. Before you think it's only against extreme sites, you should know the checkboxes on the form are to report:
Sexual Intercourse
Sadomasochism
Anal Sex
Masturbation
Sexual Bestiality
Excretory Functions
Oral Sex
Lewd Exhibition of the Genitals
Other

I was born and raised catholic.......





But then I reached the age of reason lol

-Loki-

LOL I love how all of you gloss over this part and only focus on the "Christians":

Well, the rare event of the homosexual lobby and the religious right bumping uglies is a great topic in of itself but this thread was to update the activities of those I have been warning as a greater threat to the posters of this board than any government entity they may be worried about. I guarantee you their numbers dwarfed any gay lobbies in this matter.

If you've not read that thread, again I would highly recommend that you do so (read past the pissing match that happened within it:upsidedow) to get to all the information posted there on these people.

I am attempting to provide in these threads documentation that the "new morality" being shoved down our country's throat is not the "will of the people" but the work of a very few, well funded, well placed extremists. They spearheaded a little success you might have heard of recently ... half-million dollar fines for TV and radio stations for any single incident declared "obscene". They have quite a number of constituents and legislature's ears that obscenity is on cable and satellite TV and falls under the same local regulations as broadcast TV, which is partly why they file a majority of their complaints in local jourisdictions. :Oh crap

Hey they are not all bad they are against .xxx lol

Only because they say it would suggest legitimacy to the industry (which would be free to continue to use .com addresses).
Read up. "Pat Trueman" "Tony Perkins" "Morality in Media" "Family Research Council" "American Family Association" "Focus on the Family"...
Nasty people. Stocked full with lawyers that know how to work it:(

I'm gonna have a church built, and only let extremist religious freaks like these failures in. The catch; as soon as you walk in the door, you get shot in the head. It's the only way to stop'em. Besides, that's what churches were meant for, why else would they have such high ceillings then to hold a lot of bodies?

halfwits and their ignorance are always on display at GFY

"Groups ranging from the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) and the National Fair Housing Alliance to the conservative Family Research Council had raised concerns about the show, the papers said."""

Are you referring to the halfwits that don't read the whole thread before posting?

Expressing strong concerns doesn't go near what anyone else did. Not being religous nutjobs i doubt they'd go anywhere even approaching a fraction of a percent to what the family groups did.

Organized religion will be the downfall of this planet, mark my words.

BTW my god is better than YOUR GOD!!!!!

Religion actually seems very unorganized to me. They're all worshipping fake, make believe people, yet they can't get along. They all pretend some guy, who doesn't exist, created us...yet they can't get along. And they all believe this very same guy (starting to sound a bit sexist here now) is always watching over....but doesn't have the balls to show'em self....yet they still can't get along!

Since they like to firebomb abortion clinics and shoot abortion doctors why doesn't some do the same to them? Maybe then they'll get the message to BACK THE FUCK OFF. Do we not have ONE nutjob on our side? How is it they can get the likes of Eric Rudolph to do their dirty work?

Cool site. Once a week or so I use that site to report themselves or some other Christian web site as obscene. :thumbsup

The FRC released their statement on the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor,

I can't wait for the new civil war. Yay.

I want to say it's "fascinating" or "amusing" that organizations "for families" are exactly the opposite, in my opinion. An organization for family would practice and preach the strength of the family unit and how to watch over your family, keeping it safe.

In my opinion, it's absolutely disgusting, these family organizations and family's not willing to accept responsibility. Fuck them. Fuck their families.
