Christian host on transgender rights: ‘Liberals demand public access to rape your girls’

Is it me or are RWers getting more and more violent with their rhetoric on the average? Like they are trying to push a conflict? I keep thinking of Rwanda more and more


Dr. “Chaps” Gordon Klingenschmitt, a Navy chaplain who turned to hosting a Christian Internet show after being court martialed, warned his followers this week that liberals wanted to visually “rape your girls” by giving transgender people equal rights.

In an email to supporters over the weekend, Klingenschmitt lashed out at a recent Maine Supreme Court ruling that said a transgender girl should be able to use the school bathroom that corresponded to her gender.

“‘Transgenders’ want your children,” he wrote in the email obtained by Right Wing Watch. “Liberals demand public access to rape your girls, at least visually in public bathrooms, or to expose themselves to your girls at school, without parental consent or protection of any kind.”


Klingenschmitt advised parents in Maine to “immediately remove their children from public schools, and teach them at home.”

If he's been court martialed, why is he getting any press? Isn't it time to fade him into listener-only status?

And I bet that anyone as far to the right as Klingenschmitt is is hiding a deep, dark secret. He's the textbook definition of the very hypocrites Jesus warned us about.

It's clear that this idiot doesn't know what he's talking about (as if -that- were ever in doubt!), and several comments mention the Freudian nature of his...erm...'speech'. Yes, methinks he doth protesteth farrrrrr too much.

It is of course not a sin to be anything as sin doesnt exist and if it did it still isnt, but these xtians, and there are tens of millions of them, hate the Gay or Transgender person, deeply they hate them
