An Alabama church apologizes for 'freak show' comments by GOP gubernatorial candidate Tim James.
covered James’ visit to Richmond, Virginia, which he describe as politically “blue,” or Democratic, and noted people around him looked like “they were from Mars.”
“They were tattoos from the head to the toe,” James said. “Some girl came walking by. I mean she was about six four, plus her heels, and she had a great big old mohawk, nothing down each side but a tattoo. And it was a freak show.” In its post, Life Chapel doesn’t mention James by name but said its “mission is to bring God’s love to life.”
“The specific comment that concerned many people was concerning people that looked differently, particularly ones with tattoos and certain hairstyles and clothing or lifestyle choices. “Life Chapel’s mission is to bring God’s love to LIFE. Everyone’s life. Every nationality and every background... Every person who expresses themselves differently and how they look and the choices they make,” the church said. “For far too long, the church has been a place lacking hope and comfort for every type of person…A place where only certain people fit in or belong. This is not our heart, nor is it the heart of God.
