North Carolina lieutenant governor facing backlash after calling transgender people ‘filth’
NY Post ^ | Oct 9 | By Isabel Vincent

North Carolina’s lieutenant governor is facing mounting calls for his resignation after he was caught on video calling transgender people “filth.”

The video, which was first posted Wednesday by Right Wing Watch, showed the first-term Republican making the comments during a speech at Asbury Baptist Church in June.

“There’s no reason anybody, anywhere in America should be telling children about transgenderism, homosexuality, any of that filth,” Mark Robinson said in the video, which has gone viral. “Yes, I called it filth.”

The comments were condemned by the White House this week. “These words are repugnant and offensive,” said Andrew Bates, White House deputy press secretary and a native of North Carolina, in a statement. “The role of a leader is to bring people together and stand up for the dignity and rights of everyone; not to spread hate and undermine their own office.”

Filth- 100%

Joe Biden is a “devout Catholic”. He should be in agreement with the Bible:

Romans 1:26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

But he is more likely in this group:

Matthew 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’ 23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

Yeah Bates, putting a penis in a mans ass is as pure as the driven snow.

These people are mentally disturbed.....their sexual behavior and or confusion simply evidences their mental condition. We should all be speaking against mentally ill people pushing their behavior on our children as if this is acceptable.

One might ask, WWJD?

In such a situation, the answer is pretty clear.

He would divide.

As in, with a meataxe.

Or with whatever cleaving tool he might find close at hand. The point is, he would not hesitate or worry about being politically correct.

The headline lies and distorts. He called the lifestyles filth, not the people. Same if you say to a child, don’t act like loser. You are not calling them a loser.

Goor that he can still speak his mind at the pulpit - for now.

In Canukistan, the church would be shut in & the man put in chains for the ‘hate speech’.

As for me, do not mistake tolerance at gunpoint to the head for acceptance...is is not.

I would have added degenerate child predators but filth is close enough.

If you read his comments carefully, you’ll see that Robinson is NOT calling transgender people “filth”. He is instead denouncing transgenderism, and the teaching of transgenderism.

And that’s a big difference. It’s sort of like “Hate the sin, love the sinner.”

It’s a Southern term. Former Durham NC ADA Freda Black referred to a defendant’s porn collection as, “Pure T. Filth!”

People are far too stupid to note the distinction.

Perhaps some are but the Left depends on their followers to be as you say, stupid.

Just once, I’d like to see a politician make a statement that creates “Back Lash” say, “So, I meant it. If you don’t like it, don’t vote for me.”

They are mentally defective and are demanding that we participate in their delusions
