Buttigieg responds to protesters yelling about 'Sodom and Gomorrah'
The Hill ^ | 04/16/19 09:20 PM EDT | AL AXELROD

Posted on 04/16/2019 8:08:42 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg (D) was recently confronted by two protesters shouting about the biblical cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Two protesters interrupted Buttigieg, who is openly gay, during a speech in Fort Dodge, Iowa, shouting about the two cities that the Bible says were destroyed by what it calls sinful acts, including sodomy. They were both quickly shouted down by a crowd of 1,650 people chanting the South Bend, Ind., mayor’s name and escorted out of the area by security.

ADVERTISEMENT "The good news is the condition of my soul is in the hands of God, but the Iowa caucuses are up to you," Buttigieg said after the first protester was ushered away from the crowd.

"Remember the beauty of our democracy. Everyone here gets the exact same voice and vote. Feels like the numbers are on our side," he added after the second protester was removed.

When asked for further comment regarding the protesters, Buttigieg’s campaign directed The Hill to the candidate’s statements during the event.

Buttigieg’s sexual orientation has been thrust into the spotlight in recent days as he feuds with Vice President Pence over the former Indiana governor’s stances on the LGBTQ community. He was particularly critical of a 2015 law Pence signed that allowed businesses to use religious liberty as a defense if they believed the government was infringing on their exercise of religion. Critics said the law would allow businesses to discriminate against the LGBTQ community.

“The vice president is entitled to his religious beliefs,” Buttigieg said Tuesday on CNN’s “New Day.” “My problem is when those religious beliefs are used as an excuse to harm other people.”

“The good news is the condition of my soul is in the hands of God”

nope. We are not robots or trained dogs in a one-way relationship. Humans were given ‘choice’, so we’re not guaranteed Divine Absolution. We must be received, be forgiven and redeemed. HE can’t do much about the condition of one’s soul until that person chooses the right path. Living in lust, however delusionally comfortable that may make one feel, is not choosing the right path. Nor is the arrogance of flaunting that lust in public and (demanding) expecting HIM to be cool with it, actually cool with HIM.

Most like his own people. Our side knows that he’s not a serious candidate, at least not for 2020.

’ There’s the leftist, fake-ass media again with this crap. There is no feud. Pence said absolutely zippo about this clown.
The Mayor is using Pence’s name as bait. He wants Pence to make a statement, so then the fake news can scream that Pence is a homophobe and hates gay people, and then a hashtag will magically pop up saying #StandwithMayorPete or something....you get the idea.’

That is what’s going on. They’re trying to get someone on our side to call him a ‘sinner’ or something equivalent...and then they’ll pounce. So he’ll keep tweaking, and who knows, someone like Roy Moore my just take the bait.

Bingo

His only credit is being a homo talking like Hitler about making something “completely new”...

Many liberal movies portray the kool kids as being blacks or gays driving Volks Waggen war jeeps, aka Nazi mobiles... it is uncanny the liberal Nazi envy and jew hate or self hate imagery being used before Obama and then later

Speaking of gay pride parades, here's a companion scripture:

Psalm 12:8 (NAS) The wicked strut about on every side When vileness is exalted among the sons of men.

Hmmm... it exactly the way he wanted to in the heat of the moment? Set up?

Like it or not, he’s baiting us. Why else would the media play up a guy running for president from a town that didn’t even have a traffic light 10 years ago? The moment that happens, all hell will come down on that person. They are SALIVATING that moment, like hungry lions.

I’m surprised that no one from our side has bit yet...but just a matter of time. Hopefully it will be Roy Moore taking the bait, as he’s pretty much written off by most of the party.

Who, exactly, is being harmed? I don’t see him being beaten up, ridiculed, or forced back in the closet.

This is what I have come to call "passive assault" after the newly emergent recognition of the "passive aggressive" concept.

It is the attempt to injure another without opening oneself to reprisal.

I refer to gays as ‘anal sexers’. I feel the latter term is more apropos.

Aren’t many comments on Mayor Pete beyond the request:

“please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience.”
