Tony Perkins wants to abolish the judicial system
“Just this week, another judge struck down a state marriage amendment. One of the most novel was Judge Jones in Pennsylvania back in May – he struck down Pennsylvania’s marriage amendment saying ‘it’s time to throw marriage laws onto the ash heap of history’. Frankly, I think it’s time we throw the opinions of unelected judges onto the dunghill of history where they belong.”
— Family Research Council president Tony Perkins, who made the statement as part of a sermon at Cornerstone Chapel in Virginia, in which he called for the courts system to be abolished due to the recent spate of rulings against same-sex marriage bans that have taken place across the country.
