FedEx Shitcans Hater Over "Faggots Are Maggots" Tour

From my February 2020 report:

Mike Heath, a long–time anti-LGBTQ activist in Maine who now runs Helping Hands Ministries, has been a regular participant in Dave Daubenmire’s daily program. On Friday, Daubnemire turned the mic over to Heath so that he could announce his plans.

“I’m going to do a world tour,” Heath announced. “The theme is ‘Faggots are Maggots.’ The tour is inspired by the work of Donald Trump. This isn’t satire. I’m serious. I started supporting Donald Trump early in the 2016 primary for one reason: He insults his enemies. He makes things personal that deserve to be personal.


And one week later that month from Heath:

“For a bit over a week I’ve been salting my COLUMNS with the English words “faggot” and “maggot.” I started doing it with a promise that I’d do a World Tour because it is a fact that Faggots are Maggots. I probably won’t do the Tour. Not because I don’t want to do it. I won’t do it because Tony Perkins, Tim Wildmon, Franklin Graham, Jim Dobson and Pope Francis won’t help me.”


Below is today’s fun update from Right Wing Watch.

no, wait -- fair would really be something much worse that losing your job, but ... I'm settling.

Was a contract driver delivering packages for Fedex, he was not a Fedex employee but rather a contract employee for a company that had a contracr to deliver packaged for Fedex.

Fedex is not anti LGBTQ or any of the other hateful bias exhibited by a well known person who hopefully will be voted out on November.

I'll speak to Franklin this afternoon. I'm sure Franklin just didn't understand what the tour was about.
