This Gary North?...

North favors capital punishment for a range of offenders, including murderers, blasphemers, children who curse their parents,[25] male homosexuals, and other people who commit some of the acts deemed capital offenses in the Old Testament.[26][27] (North believes that the death penalty for sabbath breaking and some other crimes no longer applies.[26]) North stated that the biblical admonition to kill homosexuals in the Book of Leviticus is God's "law and its morally appropriate sanction", arguing that "God is indeed a homophobe" who "hates the practice [of homosexuality] and those who practice it" and "hates the sin and hates the sinner."[28]

North has said that capital punishment should be carried out by stoning, because it is the biblically approved method of execution and it is cheap due to the plentiful and convenient supply of stones.

I see a firing squad as stoning. Yes he was a theonomist and believed the biblical moral law should be upheld in the civil realm.

I don’t find that so upsetting. At sfo I have to walk through an entire terminal dedicated to Harvey Milk, admitted serial molester of boys. We have children as grand marshals of the homo parade and those who hold to Christian morality are denied jobs. Christian firefighters were required to ride on a float in the LA gay parade and our speech is being prohibited routinely. Homosexuality and Christianity cannot peacefully coexist. Learn from history or repeat it.

I read some of his articles. Mostly on economics and stuff like that. Didn’t know that he was big on “eye for eye” Hammurabi style justice.
