When it comes to an issue as divisive as the Boy Scouts of America lifting the ban on adult leadership, sometimes it helps to take a step back and think outside the box. And sometimes not.

Colorado state representative Gordon Klingenschmitt (R, to put it conversatively) is a perilously free thinker who’d prefer a gay scout leader with “a millstone… hung around his neck… drowned in the depths of the sea” to a gay scout leader who’s accepted into the ranks of the BSA.

“If your boy is in one of those organizations, you need to get him out of there,” he argues, unseemly tableaux flickering through his brain. “Because what they’re going to do is promote homosexual men to mentoring and camping with your boys in the woods. And it will lead to child abuse… The children are in danger. It’s not about the sexual pleasure of the adults.”
Unlike, say, the Biblical torture porn that you can paw at in your moments of need. Klingenschmitt then whips out one of his favorite sexy passages from the Book of Matthew: “Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were drowned in the depths of the sea.”

This, the lawmaker reveals, “is what Jesus said about child molesters. If you are going to cause a child to sin, it would be better if you just had a millstone hung around your neck and you were drowned in the depths of the sea. Compared to the judgement that almighty God is going to implement on child molesters when he throws them into hell. Personally, I would rather be drowned in the depths of the sea than face the wrath of almighty God for having caused any of these little ones to sin.”
And personally, we’d rather be drowned in the depths of the sea with all the millstones than listen to some creepo in a blazer and mock turtleneck unloading his untoward sexual fantasies. But here you go:

So in other words, pull your kid out of the BSA and send him to church camp with the priests.

And still.
It’s 2015 and we are STILL arguing with the brain-damaged Christian crowd that gay does not equal pedophilia. Ugh. This is starting to come off as a hate crime. I don’t like to throw that phrase around very often, but if people like this continue to slander us in such a way, we may actually need to file a lawsuit.
Here’s 20 bucks that says this asswipe actually IS a practicing pedophile… boys, girls, puppies… it’s all the same to him, I suspect.
Joseph Davoli
KooKoo Kristian !
ryuichi
I’m surprised that he just doesn’t want to push gay men into the gas chambers (oh, pardon me, another nazi already thought of that).
aliengod
What a nutjob!
McShane
No freakin’ way am I watching that video. Gross. Can you imagine what a night alone in the woods with this “person” would do to a kid.
@Ladbrook: I’ll raise it up to $50.
Ahhh, man. I watched it.
Garth
This would also include causing a child to sin by teaching them to hate the way he is doing. I guess he has not considered this.
Kathukid
This guy is one of those self-hating closet cases who want to make the world as fucked up as he is. What a freak. And to think he actually won an election in Colorado.
Brandon Schunot
Yeah he looks like a sick fucking pedophile
ocdj63
OK it’s REALLY creepy how he closes his eyes like that at 1:23. Is he watching “eyelid kiddie porn”
Carlos Zuniga
I can’t wait for his scandal and I’m sure he will burn up upon re entry
Bill Mountrey
Stupid is as stupid does. Thanks to Kilngenschmitt for proving he is stupid.
Jim McGinn
What an idiot, do your research asshat, 99% of pedophiles are heterosexuals, Gay men want a man not a boy! Educate yourself Klingenschmitt! All you do is spew hate, and you call yourself a Christian!
silveroracle
There’s Klingenschmitts on the starboard bow. Scrape them off Jim.
Marleana Ayala
Gordon Klingenschmitt is turned on by the idea of gay. The rest of that sentence isn’t necessary.
BlueDude
Closet Uncle Fester is about as creepy as I’ve ever seen! HOW do people like him get elected, and by WHAT sort of voters? The Living Dead???
Nixter
@Marleana Ayala: LOL ! And probably true !
darian
@McShane: I’ll see your $50 and double it.
I predict he’ll end up leaving his office in shame like Aaron whatshisname.
Stache99
Damn. That freak looks like the very picture of a child molester.
Charles Copenhagen
Aside from Klingenschmitt looking like a Nightmare on Elm Street character. As an elected official if he so chooses, he has access to FBI records which show statistics that 93% of all child molesters are heterosexual men, 4% are homosexual and 3% are women. Sad that any percentage of the population would hurt a child but if you’re going to accuse anyone, Gordon Klingenschmitt, get it right.
DCFarmboy
That is one pissed off Episcopalian. Didn’t know he is now a state Representative.
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
It is going to be epic when this vile smcubag closet case’s filthy closet door bursts open and so many tiny skeletons come tumbling out………………
David Gervais
I’m not going to watch him, that photo at the top is scary enough. Jazz hands, I’m going to touch you hands….
I hope the local child protection services are watching him.
Herman75
Holy jazz hands Batman.
I don’t think that creepy pastor was ever in the Boy Scouts.
No he wasn’t Boy Wonder. We’ll be keeping Gordon klingenschmitt on our gay radar
