ACLU Lawyers Blame Christians For Orlando Terror Attack

Several American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) attorneys took to Twitter to blame the “Christian Right” for Sunday’s deadly terrorist attack at a nightclub in Orlando, Fla., which left 50 dead and 53 injured.

Chase Strangio, a staff attorney with the ACLU’s LGBT and AIDS Project, claimed the social and political environment cultivated by Christian conservatives in recent months was to blame for the shooting at Pulse, a nightclub popular with Orlando’s LGBT community.

Strangio also called for solidarity between American Muslims and LGBT communities, arguing both are maligned and oppressed by the religious right.

Federal law enforcement officials have identified Omar Mateen, of Port St. Lucie, Fla., as the alleged shooter. Mateen’s father told NBC news his son harbored anti-gay sentiments, and said his son gave voice to those feelings recently during a trip to Miami, where he saw two men kissing.

I would not even wish for those ACLU lawyers to be burned alive by ISIS in one of their cages as they are prone to do.

(I might think briefly about bringing some marshmallows, but only for a few seconds before I reminded myself "that would be wrong".)

CHRISTIANS had nothing to do with this!!!

This is: RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISM...say it, read it, get used to it...deal with it!!!

Until we start saying what the problem is, we are not going to solve it!!!

Strangio, indeed.

[Alberta's Child]

The attack in Orlando was perpetrated because people like the ACLU and the entire LGBT movement are convinced that a Christian baker who refuses to cater a wedding is a bigger threat to this country than radical Islamic terrorists.

This mutant who carried out the attack has been described as an "unassimilated American" in various media outlets -- including right here on FreeRepublic.

I sure as hell wouldn't hold that against him. "Unassimilated?" Heck -- I am unassimilated, too. I don't even recognize a country -- complete with gay nightclubs and ACLU types -- that welcomes immigrants from Third World sh!t-holes all over the globe where this kind of sh!t is the norm.

Not stupid...calculated evil! Christians are becoming to America, what the Jews were to NAZI Germany

[Graybeard58]

The ACLU is “all in” with the spirit of the Antichrist.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I think you’re on to something but the ACLU isn’t the only group.

The Left is following Alinsky’s formula for victory: Never let a crisis go to waste. Obama and Hillary and their propagandists in the media never miss an opportunity to attack White American Christians when a crisis occurs, no matter how ludicrous the accusations are.

[Texas Eagle]

Just for the record, who is the ACLU endorsing for President, Mr. Strangio? Errrrr, Ms. Strangio? Uhhhhh, Ms/r. Strangio?

[simpson96]

Agree. They have to be exposed for saying things like this.

[Lopeover]

ACLU is an anethma to liberty loving Americans.

200 anti-LGTB bills? Where were they introduced? Do the bills say that gays can’t be gay, lesbians can’t be lesbians, and the others have to choose?

[Let's Roll]

Can they possibly be that stupid or is it just that they hope their followers are?

Much more talk of aligning the muzzies with the lgbtqwerty community and they will be the next muzzie target.

[KC_Conspirator]

Total idiot this guy

[Texas Eagle]

Yeah, Ms./r. Strangio? Perhaps you missed this little tidbit in Townhall.com

Just months earlier, however, this same mosque featured keynote speaker Sheikh Farrokh Sekaleshfar who called for the killing of homosexuals as “the compassionate thing to do”. Referring to homosexuals in a 2013 speech, Sekaleshfar said: “Death is the sentence…Let’s get rid of them.”

[SandRat]

Can they possibly be that stupid or is it just that they hope their followers are?

Yes to both of your questions

[Edward.Fish]

I'm just waiting for the MSM to somehow make ISIS into a Christian acronym like ΙΧΘΥΣ. (And then they'll obviously try to gaslight us about it always being Christian, never Islamic.) /cynic

The folks that worked with the “Orlando nutjob” did express concerns and asked that he be investigated. They were hardly cowed, they were ignored.
