Demanded the Resignation of a Legislator for Traditional Views

Massachusetts Republican Legislators and officials overwhelmingly demanded the resignation of Orthodox Catholic (Debbie Martell) for expressing traditional beliefs on homosexuals adopting children. Many of them attacked her and threatened her. Some signed a resolution to condemn anyone with such beliefs (all House members except Rep. Marc Lombardo signed the resolution).
