The Fischer Files
Bryan Fischer is well-known here in Idaho. To some he is has been a hero of “family values,” but to many he is a living, breathing example of what is wrong with America. While in Idaho, this man literally made a career out of vilifying and dehumanizing LGBTQI people.
Since leaving Idaho in mid 2009, Fischer has been catapulted into the national spotlight by ratcheting up his racist and homophobic hate propaganda on his American Family Association radio show and blog.
Had it not been for a complacent, lazy and negligent Idaho news media, perhaps Fischer would not now be the national poster boy for anti-Muslim racism, criminalizing gays and an embarrassment to Idahoans.
This man’s obsession with, and hatred of, homosexuals is well documented herein from previous works on PrideDEPOT.com, listed below, to more recent stories here. It therefore seemed appropriate to document Bryan Fischer’s reign of contempt here in Idaho and now on the the national stage from Tupelo, MS.
