Pastor Steven Anderson to Signorile: 'I hope you get brain cancer like Ted Kennedy'

[ccharles000]

Well we can confirm one thing about this the fundamentalist who called for the execution of Barney Frank and the President (as well as all you Sodomites out there) -- the Secret Service was right in paying LaBarbera Award-winner Steven Anderson of Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona a visit.

Sirius XM's Mike Signorile had the hate-mongerer on his show yesterday (full audio here) and Anderson's not backed down a bit.

MS: You want all gay people to be executed, correct?
SA: That is correct. It is what the Bible teaches.
MS: If somebody were to go out with a machine gun and spray down a crowd of gay and lesbian people, would you think that was okay?
SA: I would not think it's okay because I believe in due process.
MS: Whould that person be a murderer?
SA: No, I would not judge them as a murderer, no.

We can laugh at this guy, but we have to take violence-inciting individuals headcases like Anderson seriously because he whips up the unstable, often gun-toting Base that the GOP is catering to these days. Those are the people who may decide to act out as they feel their world spinning out of control (The Homo Agenda, "socialism", "fascism", country overrun with The Brown Menace, etc.).

But as the headline notes, Anderson then shared some special thoughts with Mike. Apparently the agent of hate didn't know Signorile was gay, and that's what generated this.

MS: You know, I'm gay..I'm gay, and I don't molest any children. What do you think of that?
SA: Well, I'd say you're lying.
MS: You think i must be molesting children, right?
SA: Exactly, right.
MS: Do you pray that I'll died tonight.
SA: If you're a homosexual, I hope you get brain cancer like Ted Kennedy.

1. And this vermin

gets tax exempt status, right? This is what MY taxes are paying for and people are bitching about a public option for health care? Oy Vey.

[NoQuarter]

14. Seriously.

He's an completely uneducated loser who figured he deserved some tax exempt in his life...so he started a "church."

Rancid turd.

[subcomhd]

2. I take the mofo seriously. I'm sure the USSS does as well. nt

[Glorfindel]

3. Nice...repulsive tax-exempt monster

I'm sorry that Signorile condescended to speak to him. Dealing with that sort of scum is like trying to teach a pig to dance: It wastes your time and annoys the pig. :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

[polly7]

4. OMG what a hate-filled, ugly man. n/t

[PDJane]

5. this is where this man's free speech rights should end.

This is no longer 'faith' or 'freedom of religion' either. This is hate speech, and it should be more than sufficient reason to curtail his rights.

Going around inciting violence on the fringes doesn't have anything at all to do with free speech. Nor, quite frankly, does this man's 'religion' leave me wishing to respect his right to believe as he wishes.

I am outraged, insulted, and completely puzzled that he's allowed to do and say these things.

[Sebastian Doyle]

6. This piece of shit is actually worse than the Phelps KKKult.

Yeah, Fred and his bunch say some pretty repulsive shit, but at least they never actively promoted violence.

[Critters2]

7. As someone who lost her mother to brain cancer, I can say

that this is the most vile, awful thing I've ever heard a person say. I'm just gobsmacked.

[subcomhd]

8. your headline buries the real story here

MS: You want all gay people to be executed, correct?
SA: That is correct. It is what the Bible teaches.
MS: If somebody were to go out with a machine gun and spray down a crowd of gay and lesbian people, would you think that was okay?
SA: I would not think it's okay because I believe in due process.
MS: Whould that person be a murderer?
SA: No, I would not judge them as a murderer, no.

Holy Shit!!

[RagAss]

12. Tell the Asshole...The Taliban is Looking for a Few Good Men !

[Wapsie B]

9. Let him become the millstone around the neck of what's left of the gop.

[Libertas1776]

10. There will

be a special kind of hell waiting for this fuck when he croaks...a frilly, pink, F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S kind of hell filled with scantly clad, sweaty, muscular men in short shorts and sailor hats singing ABBA and show tunes in perpetuity, over and over, for all eternity.

[City Lights]

11. We need to get Anderson to endorse some Republicans, so we can attach

this fresh pile of excrement firmly around the neck of the Gang Of Psychos.

[booley]

13. "You molest children"

"That I have no proof or reason to think that beyond my own prejudices is besides the point. So I will wish you ill."

Seriously, if there is a Gawd, this guy might be in trouble.

[Bolo Boffin]

15. Methinks the pastor doth project too much. n/t

[graywarrior]

16. Why do people give him a platform to spew his shit?

I hope he gets constipated for a year.

[cascadiance]

17. I don't laugh at any of what this guy says! He scares the shit out of me!

And I'm not gay either!

Haven't listened to the interview yet, but I hope Signorile asked this nazi whether he thinks Jesus would bless his wishes and do also what he advocates doing? These nutball Kristian terrorists need to be exposed for what they are!

[troubledamerican]

18. But REVEREND WRIGHT is a RADICAL

[defendandprotect]

19. It is "Christianity's" teachings which have to be cured before this POS ...

will be cured --

Let's face it, folks, Christianity has for too long been able to create hatred

and intolerance for gays/lesbians based on "Christian" teachings/values!!!

Time for all of that crap to end -- !!!
