I'm standing here at the Texas African-American History Memorial.
It makes me think of a verse in the Bible that says,
And he that stealeth a man and selleth him,
or if he be found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.
The Bible never promoted slavery.
Slavery is wicked.
The Bible says that God is not a respecter of persons.
And what makes me very frustrated is how people try to equate
people's skin color and immutable characteristic
to these pride celebrations going up and down the streets,
trying to suggest that that is the same
as the African-American plight.
This is disgraceful.
This is an abomination to equate this to black people
as somehow having their rights taken away through slavery
as the same as the LGBT.
No, they are completely different.
One is a degenerate, filthy, disgusting abomination
inside of God.
And the other is a glorious beauty
because God, again, created black people in his image
just the same as white people.
