It's practically hate speech according to American law.

1. Specific target.
2. Specific audience.
3. Advocating violence.
4. Real possibility of it being acted upon.

About half of the people on this site practice "hate speech". By your own definition, this is a "hate site". But for now, the first Amendment is still in force.

Some may, others won't. Great thing about this country: We have the right to free speech and free exercise of religion.

1) Point 1, I dind't say it, it was on the link to the OP. 2) A generic condemnation of violence is something you are not willing to do. Number 3) It's your reputation, not mine.

As usual, you don't know what you are talking about, you don't know what I am thinking and I'm not sure you know what you're thinking.

Yet, you are unable to type the words 'I condemn the threat of violence against gays, and those specific statements if they actually said them'. Gosh, I wonder what's so hard about that.

I found it to be a piece of cake. I wonder what is preventing him from saying it?

And I recently got into an argument with two people who thought I was crazy for saying that we have a growing "Christian ISIS" in this country.
No, they are not chopping off anyone's heads....YET.

YET.

He doesn't understand the teachings of Christ, or simply willfully chooses to reject them, or both ?

That violence. Do you say that those statements and call for violence is unchristian?

Doing a very good job with one of the two, and failing miserably with the other.

A while back I saw a documentary by Stephen Fry and in it, he met one of these preachers. The guy went on and on about men committing sodomy with each other. Fry pointed out that not all gay men indulge in sodomy and many hetero couples do it but the guy seemed to be deaf and just went on and on about gay sodomy. It was obvious that he was obsessed with it.

You make a good point...all sexual deviancies are wrong in God's eyes...I, too, have wondered how many "Christians" will condemn persons for performing the exact same acts they perform in their own bedrooms...

Nope, I'm just not letting these creeps bully me into saying something I don't want to say. Besides, unlike the couch potatoes on this site, I work for a living, and I don't have enough information to make a judgement. Number three, it doesn't look like a crime has been committed other than upsetting the loony left.

And if Christ was here, they'd string him up all over again in his own name.

So true. And it's always them isn't it?

Whoever is leading this Make America Straight Again nonsense is simply a closet homo who can't deal with their own persuasion so they have to project on others. I say leave the gays alone. It's in the f***ing constitution for Chrissakes.

This should be good: tell us what you know about what we do in our own bedrooms, sister.

Then they wouldn't be "terminally" self righteous. It's terminal.

I stand corrected. I guess what I meant to say is they would like to enact violence upon them if they don't disappear.
