Announcer: Welcome back to The David Pakman Show.

David: All right, welcome back to the show. In honor of Louis's metal band Krakatoa's big concert that's coming up, which we're going to detail about in the bonus show, we have set up a new membership special, www.DavidPakman.com/Louis. We're not talking about it on social media, we're not publishing it, it is just if you hear or watch this you will know about it. And you have to remember how to spell Louis's name. A lot of people don't. It's L-O-U-I-S. www.DavidPakman.com/Louis, special membership offer, go there, sign up, you don't want to miss it.

In Kentucky, a state Republican representative wants to legalize bullying by Christian students of gay students. The guy's name is Mike Harmon. Not like I need to tell you the guy's a Republican, I'm sure you know that. He wants to make it legal for Christian students to bully gay kids about their sexuality, and he has actually filed an amendment, Louis, to an anti-bullying bill saying students should be allowed to condemn other students' sexual preferences as long as the expression of a religious belief does not include physical harm.

So if someone in a conversation says what he really wants is students to be able to tell gay students homosexuality is a sin, that should be allowed, whether you yell it, whether you whisper it, whether you pass it in a note or in a threat, it can't be a physical threat, of course, that should be allowed. What do you think of that?

Louis: I think this amendment will...

David: Go in the trash where it belongs?

Louis: Clearly, and, well, just more wasting of time by these representatives.

David: And the Democrat who sponsored the bill responded... the original anti-bullying bill, he said, "I would ask Mike Harmon, 'What would Jesus do?' Would he bully people based on religion? I don't think so." You know, it's a good point, but honestly, religion just shouldn't even be a part of the discussion. I get the point; I dislike even using religion as a barometer for any bill. Let's stop that.

4. Damn........
I guess there is just no end to their hatred and complete ignorance. These same morons
will probably be calling Gingrich "great"........and want him to be their pres. Not much
surprises me anymore. This "byebull" BS is getting rather old, frankly. No wonder I'm
an atheist.

5. "Keep Anti-Gay Bullying Legal"
I say replace Gay with Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Satanic or any of the other 1,000,000 worldwide religions. Until this happens willful ignorance reigns.

6. What if the gay kid kicks the Christian kid's ass?
I suppose the gay kid gets expelled because The Law requires him to just sit there and take it.

8. So what about a bunch of atheists surrounding your ass and
start yelling and screaming, intimidating, but not threatening you physically, about your extra-marital affairs? If we followed you around where you work or play and let everyone know you are a scumbag, that's ok then right?
