One of America's original anti-LGBTQ activists is dead

[Behind the Aegis]

Reverend Lou Sheldon founded one of the first anti-LGBTQ hate groups, the Traditional Values Coalition. He was best known for his vitriol and bigotry.

Sheldon has died of a “longstanding condition” at age 85 according to his family. They did not specify whether or not the vicious conservative died after filling up with his own bile.

The Traditional Values Coalition was designated an anti-LGBTQ hate group in 2010 by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Sheldon’s bigoted and outlandish claims about the LGBTQ community were often the standard for other hate groups to follow. While other religious right hate groups delved deeper into other issues like abortion, he mostly preferred to demonize LGBTQ people.
