“Unfortunately, he’s doing this with the wrong Christian, because I fight back,” he boldly told reporters.
Specifically, the father of five intended to fight back by requesting a stay “in an effort to delay the order.” This would give him and his wife more time to pay back the hefty $135,000 fine. Klein worried that paying it right now all at once would financially ruin his family.
Klein also slammed Avakian for allegedly maintaining an “inappropriate relationship” with Basic Rights Oregon, a gay rights group.
“This guy has been biased from the get-go,” Klein asserted.
Furthermore, Klein shared his disgust at the fact that Avakian issued a “cease and desist” gag order that took away his and his wife’s right “to advertise that they would decline to make same-sex wedding cakes in the future.”
“He wants to silence anyone who opposes his point of view,” Klein remarked.
But according to The Blaze, Klein admitted that Avakian is not alone — not by a long shot — and that America is teeming with a very menacing anti-Christian sentiment.
“For years, we’ve heard same-sex marriage will not affect anybody,” he explained. “I’m here firsthand to tell everyone in America that it has already impacted people. Christians, get ready to take a stand. Get ready for civil disobedience.”
