Antigay Christian “leader” Franklin Graham is no stranger to antigay rants, and he went full psycho on Facebook as Charlotte, North Carolina is poised to bring a proposed non-discrimination ordinance that includes gender identity to a vote.
Last year, Graham’s influence helped shut down the proposed ordinance, and he’s aiming to go 2 for 2 with the upcoming vote by trashing LGBT people as “predators and sexually perverted people.”
But wait, there’s more:
“LGBT activists are trying to hook their caboose to the ‘freedom train’ and drag their immoral agenda into our communities by claiming that this is a civil rights issue. Civil rights issues are very real and important—but don’t be fooled, this isn’t one of them. I heard one African-American minister say recently that ‘the freedom train doesn’t stop at Sodom and Gomorrah.'”
Note how he sneakily mentions African-Americans in order to bring them in as allies in his antigay agenda. It’s obvious and tired, and we hope black Christians in Charlotte don’t fall for it.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Of course, he also can’t miss an opportunity to make Christians the “real” victims:
In reality, this type of so-called “non-discrimination” law is being used to discriminate against Christians. Just ask bakers Aaron and Melissa Klein, florist Barronelle Stutzman, and others who were shut down or face fines for following their faith.
Where sexual orientation and gender identity laws such as this have passed in other places, florists, bakers, photographers, adoption agencies, and t-shirt printers have been punished by the government for not wanting to use their artistic talents to celebrate and participate in same-sex weddings, not wanting to promote the LGBT messaging in Gay Pride events, or for not wanting to place an adoptive child with two men.
The hearing in Charlotte for the proposed NDO is coming up this week. As per Graham’s Facebook page, a vote is possible on 2/22.
Graham is calling for “tens of thousands” of supporters (read: antigay activists) to rally against it, but we’ll join The New Civil Rights Movement in hoping that local LGBT people and allies show up to support it.
It’s important that these people see the faces of those they’re trying so hard to demonize, and equally important to show Charlotte’s LGBT-friendly mayor Jennifer Roberts that the residents she’s pledged to support will stand up for themselves, too.

Definitely not a very Christian attitude there, Franklin. But these days, hate and fear-mongering get more donations than ‘love thy neighbor’, I guess.

Who chose this closed minded, homophobic bigot to be a “leader”? His Daddy? The Laud above?? #ITHINKNOT

I attack Franklin Graham for being a religious zealot with gay hair.

Can’t stand Franklin Graham, but who cares what happens in NC ? That’s a state where the gays are as rotten as the straights.

It’s easy to love one of your own. If you merely love those who love you, what quality of credit and thanks is that to you? For even the very sinners love their lovers—those who love them. Luke 6 something

Another anti gay thug bigot homophobic hypocrite . Once again the Christian ISIS is involved in destroying gay lives fight back!

Somebody should throw a bucket of water on this hate-monger and liquify him.
DuMaurier
Actually, the t-shirt printer (who refused to make shirts for a gay pride event) won on appeal, the court ruling that he wasn’t discriminating on the basis of sexual orientation, but exercising his First Amendment right not to express a “message” he disagreed with (distinguishing it from the “gay wedding cake” cases, where the product had no message)
Pro-Life
@LubbockGayMale: Christians should be free to express their faith. Homosexual behaviour is prohibited in the Bible. Therefore, Christians should not be forced to endorse, support or celebrate homosexual behaviors.
1EqualityUSA
Divorce is prohibited too, so……will you be holding these people to the same standard?

Transgenders have personality issues that should not be considered part of the homosexual rights movement.

He mentions S&G but doesn’t mention what Lott did with his daughters in the cave in the second half of the story – how typical for such a gross middle east religion.

@Pro-Life: But of course, American gays, the most spoiled, entitled, narcissistic demographic that all of history has produced will insist that you love and accept them because of what they like to do in private (which is way TMI). And, if you don’t, instead of respecting and tolerating your views as being different from theirs, they will agitate, hissy-fit, sue, demonstrate, name call and otherwise badger the sh it out of you until you are at least sorry that you ever mentioned anything about gays. That’s a hell of a stupid way to gain acceptance for being gay. And, it doesn’t work.

o.maggie, You’re just mad that your bigotry backfired on you and Princeton’s Robbie P. George.

Please, stop being here. Go away.
Stop telling us what you do in private, it’s really TMI. Hairy, smelly vulva… yuk!
Sick heteros.. You’re such entitled persons, and you believe we should accept you just because of what you put your penis into. Such a unsanitary thing. I hear some heteros do it eventhough they haven’t washed themselves during a whole week. That’s so disgusting.

There’s no guessing about it. Your comment is a sad fact.

@o.codone:
Not at all. It was an humoristic satire. 🙂
I am not one on those gays who agitate, hissy-fit, sue, demonstrate, name call and otherwise badger the sh it out of you. So I don’t feel concerned.
As to my sex life, since you seem to only think about it when you talk to gay people, go see an anal (straight) sex scene, and go see that it’s perfectly clean, people are washed, the hair is trimmed or waxed. If you have a healthy digestion, the anal cavity is empty 95% and only fills once a day to go to the toilet, and normally you don’t even have to wipe! You go take a shower just for appearances.
Saliva is the best natural lubricant for maximizing pleasure.
The anal hole is made to receive a penis because animals (and also probably early humans) didn’t really care where they put it. The anal cavity is a sex organ, it is even more richly innervated than the penis. Anal sex can be beautiful if done right. Personnally i find anal orgasms mind-blowing. Just as if I had a vagina.
I hope you won’t think so much about how gay people have sex from now on, since I have now quenched your subconscious curiosity.

Granny Spoth, Keep this up and maggie will be changing her name to ohh.codone.
Hussain-TheCanadian
I think most of my LGBT brothers and sisters should read, be familiar with, and demand that their States implement the Human Rights Charter – especially the Canadian version of it.
This is the only way for Gay men and woman to be fully protected under the law.

@1EqualityUSA: okay, I’ll give it a go. But I want a really small one to start. So, what’s your schedule like for next week. ahhahhahaahha.
