"We want your children, give us your children".
On Sunday, September 19, 1993 I was the guest speaker in San Francisco at Hamilton Square Baptist Church, the pastor is David Innes. I felt like I had been transported inside of Lot's home in the Old Testament city of Sodom.Hundreds of angry and mean-spirited homosexuals converged upon Hamilton Square Baptist Church. Some laid down in the streets in front of the church to block traffic while others trespassed on the church property to bang on the front door and several side doors. They blocked church goers from coming inside.
Donna McIlhenny (wife of Rev. Chuck McIhenny [sic] who pastors the First Orthodox Presbyterian Church in San Francisco) was mobbed by the rioters as she walked into the church. When a homosexual grabbed a hold of her, she had to be rescued and physically pulled from the rioters into the church. Sounds like what happened at Lot's home.
At the beginning of the service during the worship, we could hear the chanting outside. The pounding on the large gothic doors became so intense that I thought they were going to be torn from their hinges. The police told Pastor Innes and myself that they would not arrest the individuals who were breaking the law. These homosexual activists weren't just simply out in front on the sidewalk exercising their 1st Amendment rights. No, they were trespassing on church property, destroying property, inciting a riot and assaulting people who were entering the church.
Dr. Innes reports to me that congregants were pelted by rocks and eggs; the rioters removed the Christian flag from the flagpole, and attached the gay flag under the American flag; landscaping and cement benches were destroyed and the rioters chanted, "We want your children, give us your children". I must honestly tell you I feared for my life and the safety of the church members who were in jeopardy from my presence.
The sergeant in charge told us that the powers that be in San Francisco would not allow him to enforce the law against homosexual activists. In San Francisco, it would be very politically incorrect to arrest these lawbreakers. He said he couldn't and wouldn't protect our religious liberties.
Finally, the riot police arrived, but they did not remove the homosexuals from the property, they merely protected us as we left the church.
San Francisco is not middle America, and 99% percent [sic] of the time that I speak at a church there is not a problem, but this event is writing on the wall as to what happens when the wicked seize a city. And what can happen to our nation when the wicked are in charge.
(The commentary continues at the URL linked above, and at many others, it's all over the web, I just grabbed the first one Google returned. I originally heard this on the radio. They taped it as it was happening, it was blood chilling.)
