I have heard some of the Lutheran churches removed themselves from the ELCA, but I didn’t know some were banned!!

God Bless them!

I don't believe that's what Happy Rain wrote. "The Southern Lutheran Churches just recently banned by plebiscite actively homosexual pastors and are damn proud of it!"

This states some 'Southern Lutheran Churches' themselves banned actively homosexual pastors. It doesn't state some churches were banned from the ELCA. Note that 'Southern Lutheran Churches' doesn't refer to a specific synod (ELCA, LCMS, WELS...) so its unclear as to who Happy Rain was referring to.
