FEMA won't rebuild the Ocean Grove boardwalk because its owner is a church
The Methodists in Ocean Grove, NJ can't catch a break.
The boardwark that wasn't a church when two lesbians wanted to get "married" on it now is a church so that FEMA doesn't have to pay to rebuild it.
If that makes no sense to you, join the club.
Back in 2009 two troublemaker lesbians wanted to use the boardwalk for a same-sex "wedding" ceremony. The Methodist Church, which owns just about everything in Ocean Grove, said "no." The rabble-rousers sued, the Obama Administration and pretty much every gay rights organization this side of Uranus piled on. And sadly the Methodists lost, because the judge said their boardwalk was a "public accomodation."
Four years later Hurricane Sandy smashed that boardwalk, and every other boardwalk up and down the Jersey shore, to smithereens.
The good news is FEMA is rebuilding all those other boardwalks.
The bad news is, FEMA has decided the Ocean Grove boardwalk is a church after all. So no rebuilding money!
Federal officials have once again denied funding to rebuild Ocean Grove's boardwalk, according to its owner, a private non-profit organization.
The Ocean Grove Camp Meeting Association said its appeal to receive aid from the Federal Emergency Management Agency was rejected Friday.
"We are deeply disappointed in FEMA's rejection of our appeal," said Dale C. Whilden, president of the association, in a statement.
FEMA's decision is based on regulations that bar non-profits from receiving federal dollars to rebuild recreational facilities, according to the association.
C'mon guys, look on the bright side. Now's your chance to be free of judicial interference. Rebuild that boardwalk with your own money. I'll kick in a few bucks, I'm sure a lot of other folks will too. Re-consecrate it as the church it was intended to be.
Then, the next time the homosexuals come looking to raise a ruckus you can
tell 'em to go pound sand up their ass.
