It's difficult to watch notorious bigot Roland Martin pontificate about bigotry on CNN
when this horrendous piece of homophobic filth has spent years spouting hatred against gays and lesbians.
CNN has made a huge mistake letting this bigot vent about the tragic murder of an innocent young man by a racist vigilante.
The hypocrisy is mind bending. Mr. Martin has zero credibility concerning issues of bigotry and violence against minority groups.
Someone at CNN should wake up and yank this hatemonger off the air.

In Roland Martin's own words:
"My wife, an ordained Baptist minister for 20 years, has counseled many men and women to walk away from the gay lifestyle, and to live a chaste life...For her, the obligation is to her calling as a minister of the Word, rather than bowing to societal pressures. She loves gay and lesbian church members dearly, and prays with them, talks to them, and breaks bread with them. But what she cannot do is compromise the integrity of the teachings of Christ.
----------------------------------
"It would be nonsense for the body of Christ to launch a gay and lesbian ministry that is not focused on teaching God's Word - including those that address homosexuality. Preaching about the dangers of becoming drunkard - which Paul wrote about in the Bible - must be taught alongside of Jesus' admonition in Matthew 19 that God has only called a man and woman to marry.
"..if someone expects to join a church that is rooted in the Bible, then they should be prepared to hear a sermon that might, in the words of the Rev. Frederick D. Haynes III of Dallas' Friendship-West Baptist Church, "bowl down your alley or sit in your pew." The church is called to love our fellow man, preach the good news and set the captives free - free from a life of sin. That isn't being homophobic. It's being a Christian. And no one should have to apologize for that.
"In a message earlier in the day on Super Bowel Sunday Martin tweeted, "Who the hell was that New England Patriot they just showed in a head to toe pink suit? Oh, he needs a visit from #teamwhipdatass."
