He's upset because PFLAG encourages the parents of LGBT youth NOT to support those candidates who would have our society oppress and discriminate against their children? From the point of view of an young gay man, I'd consider my parents voting for a candidate or a proposition that takes obviously anti-LGBT positions a slap in the face, if not a stab in the heart. It's also rather disturbing how he uses the term 'gay activists' as if its some sort of pejorative.
