Louis Marinelli, an anti-gay activist who had a major role in the National Organization for Marriage's 'Summer Marriage Tour' in which the group held rallies via bus around the country, has resigned from the organization and has decided to support full marriage equality because of exposure to the NOM tour.
Writes Good As You: "While still not in full support of homosexuality on some levels (where he needs our help to correct misinformation), Louis is now [a] repudiating virtually all of the vitriol that he put on the public record; [b] is owning up to the major role that he's played with NOM, including admitting that he was the impetus behind the whole summer tour; and [c] is coming out in full support of the civil marriage rights that gay people are seeking. And even more important that that: He, the man who gave NOM its official "protect marriage" Facebook page and who has been working as an independent contractor with the org. ever since (and still is, reporting directly to Brian Brown, at least up until the moment this post goes live), quite literally credits exposure to the NOM tour as the very thing that led to his change of heart!!!!!"
