Manny said: “I only gave out my opinion that same sex marriage is against the law of God.”
On his radio show today, Dennis Prager said: “Given that they believed the lies spread about this boxer, if The Grove does not publicly apologize and honor this guy, people should boycott The Grove. This is the first time I’ve called for a boycott.
“Once you do this, you’ve crossed a line. The press reported a lie about the boxer. The Grove believed the lie and banned him.”
“If there was same-sex marriage, anybody who said that he prefers that marriage be male-female will be regarded as identical to an out-and-out racist. Just as society comes down with great oppression on out-and-out racists, understandably, so too they will about those who prefer male-female marriage.”
“It’s important to out these news organizations that smeared this boxer. You’re not a decent American if you are not incensed at the libel.”
“Don’t go to The Grove if you are a believer in decency in this country. This has to stop. If you have a different opinion, we’ll try to ruin your life. This is a left-wing tactic that has to be bought. You are hurting America if you shop at The Grove. Those scum. You can’t have a different opinion than the left or you’re banned from The Grove. If you buy anything at The Grove, you are an accessory to the smearing of a human being. They should be deluged with anger. Don’t curse them.”

“The Grove is a gathering place for all leftists. And even the decent leftists are not welcome at The Grove.”
“I will call all of my colleagues who broadcast in Los Angeles to ask that people not go to The Grove. If we fight back, this won’t happen again. They have to be hurt like they tried to hurt this man Manny. Do you know why this lie came out? Because he said, I believe in the Bible.”
“If you are decent, do not shop at The Grove.”
“[The Grove’s attitude is:] If we do not agree with you, we make up a lie about you and then we destroy you. We destroy them. We are more powerful than The Grove. Truth is more powerful than The Grove. Decency is more powerful than The Grove. They need to apologize and to honor him. Whoever runs The Grove needs to greet Manny Pacquiao in The Grove.”
Pacquiao was scheduled for an interview on Wednesday afternoon with Mario Lopez of TV’s “Extra” at The Grove in Los Angeles, but … Grove VP of corporate affairs Bill Reich … [issued a statement that] read, “Based on news reports of statements made by Mr. Pacquiao we have made it be known that he is not welcome at The Grove and will not be interviewed here now or in the future. The Grove is a gathering place for all Angelenos and not a place for intolerance[.]”
