GOP Lawmaker Calls for 'Civil Disobedience' on Transgender Directive [Amos 4]
Christian Headlines ^ | 5/19/2016 | Veronica Neffinger

A Republican lawmaker has condemned the Obama Administration’s transgender bathroom directive, calling for "civil disobedience." ChristianHeadlines.com previously reported that on Friday (May 13) the Obama Administration directed "all public schools and most colleges and universities that receive federal funds," to—as the Washington Post described it—'provide transgender students with access to suitable facilities–including bathrooms and locker rooms–that match their chosen gender identity.'"

CBN News reports that Representative Steve King, R-Iowa, has said that federally-funded schools are not required to comply with a law that is "unconstitutional." "There's no reason for us to follow an unconstitutional edict from the president, who is on his way out the door," King said in a radio interview Tuesday. King is among a group of Republicans who are arguing against Obama's transgender bathroom directive. He said he would likely call a hearing on the issue in which he will discuss how to stop this directive from being applied in schools across the nation.

"So we're going to explore that more fully," he said. "I need to be more astute at how movements begin, the genesis of these kinds of policies, so that we can go find them before they proliferate and become contagious across the countryside."

Steve King is one of the lone voices standing up against this latest tide of evil. But what can a Congressman do? 34 Republican Governors who have real power to stand against Emperor Obama's edict, and only 2 standing up to fight for our daughters. While the Republican nominee for President (whom I support) Donald Trump, has outrageously stated "Let the transgenders use the bathroom they want." If our conservatives will not protect our daughters, no one will. As if aborting 50 Million babies since 1973 were not enough of an abomination to God, now we place our daughters in harms way, teach children that their God given gender is changeable, and allow sodomites to marry (in addition to spreading sodomite pornography around the globe). What will become of the greatest nation ever conceived with the most light of any nation? I predict the same thing that happened to the other Nation that God created for His glory that rejected His love and truth...

Amos 4:9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. 10 I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. 11 I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD. 12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel. 13 For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name.

There are a MINISCULE amount of transgenders in this country and world. They ARE sick, mentally and spiritually. They need God's grace and our prayers to change.

Tempest in a teapot. Leave them to their psychologists and doctors.

Worse news for them: they will all age like the males/females they were born. Men-to-women will have receding hairlines, paunches higher up on the body, hairiest ears and noses...all that good stuff that aging men get.
The same for women becoming men...they will age like the females they are.

DNA is stronger than ANY cosmetic surgery.

Good for Rep. King. It’s a King against a would-be Emperor.

Yep! If they can get people to believe there are no differences in gender, they can get them to believe anything...

“’provide transgender students with access to suitable facilities”

One question. Since these confused souls have existed since ADAM and EVE , where did they go to the bathroom before ?

Who knew?

A penis in a dress is no longer dangerous. Perhaps rapists should be made to wear a dress as part of their rehabilitation.

By the way, the feminists have been screaming about the rape culture on campus. How does allowing penises in the ladies room help with that?

Thanks. Nice to see it in print. It can be defunded out of existence along with HUD and all the dirty bits of the DOJ.
