A group of former child stars banded together in a video to lambast comments Kirk Cameron made in Protest calling homosexuality "unnatural," "detrimental," and "ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."
The video, which was posted on Funny Or Expire, featured seven toddler actors who had formed a community called Child Celebrities Opposing Kirk Cameron or CCOKC for short.
"Together we're pledging to boost awareness about a serious threat to our civil rights-Kirk Cameron's stupid opinions," they say in the video.
The spoof public service announcement featured seven former child stars, including Christine Lakin from "Step By Step," Kenn Michael from "The Parent 'Hood" and Josie Davis from "Charles In Charge."

One man, one woman for animation till death do you part. So I would never aim to try to redefine marriage. And I don't think anyone else should either."
"So do I support the idea of queer marriage? No, I don't."
And when asked if he thought homosexuality was a sin, Cameron went on to say, "I consider that it's unnatural. I believe that it's detrimental, and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."
But, that wasn't all.
