Anti-Bullying Speaker Curses Christian Teens
Fox News ^ | April 27, 2012 | Todd Starnes

Posted on 04/27/2012 5:49:45 PM PDT by Redcat

As many as 100 high school students walked out of a national journalism conference after an anti-bullying speaker began cursing, attacked the Bible and reportedly called those who refused to listen to his rant “pansy asses.”

The speaker was Dan Savage, founder of the “It Gets Better” project, an anti-bullying campaign that has reached more than 40 million viewers with contributors ranging from President Obama to Hollywood stars. Savage also writes a sex advice column called “Savage Love.”

Savage, and his husband, were also guests at the White House for President Obama’s 2011 LGBT Pride Month reception. He was also invited to a White House anti-bullying conference.

Savage was supposed to be delivering a speech about anti-bullying at the National High School Journalism Conference sponsored by the Journalism Education Association and the National Scholastic Press Association. But it turned into an episode of Christian-bashing.

Most journalists are group-think bullies too - look how they took on and lied about Zimmerman. They stand against us - our children and our way of life. They buy ink by the trainload - and we sit in our PJ’s in front of a computer... Jerks.

The only good thing about this story is once again liberals showed their true colors. They’re NOT against bullying - they’re the bullies. They’re the thin-skinned eternal ‘victims’ who dish it out and NEVER EVER take an iota back...

I had to reread to make sure my ‘lyin eyes’ didn’t really see a male name attached to the first freak.

Glad to know I'm not the only one that read that a few times.

“ANTI-BULLYING” = “PRO-GAY”.

I hate their stealing the words “husband” and “wife” more than I hate their wanting to be married.

I suggest the words “gouse” and “louse” instead.

[Dan] Savage, and his husband, ...

That will never be a phrase deserving of anything save contempt and ridicule.

Standing by a purpose true,
Heeding God’s command,
Honor them, the faithful few!
All hail to Daniel’s band!
Refrain:
Dare to be a Daniel,
Dare to stand alone!
Dare to have a purpose firm!
Dare to make it known.
Many mighty men are lost,
Daring not to stand,
Who for God had been a host
By joining Daniel’s band.
Many giants, great and tall,
Stalking through the land,
Headlong to the earth would fall,
If met by Daniel’s band.
Hold the Gospel banner high!
On to vict’ry grand!
Satan and his hosts defy,
And shout for Daniel’s band.

Don’t forget his attempt to infect then Presidential candidate Gary Bauer with his flue virus (one of Bauer’s assistants actually did fall ill).

I remember that. Dan Savage wrote (bragged) about licking doorknobs at the campaign office, so that people would become sick.

Irony, as usual, is completely lost on such people.

But a very revealing moment. Far too often, people on the Left are opposed to [name the issue: slavery, discrimination, bullying, whatever]...ONLY FOR THEMSELVES AND PEOPLE WHO THINK LIKE THEMSELVES. This is how people can demand the criminalization of the use of the n-word...while blaring the word out of their car speakers at 110 db.

This is how one typically finds "staunch opponents of capital punishment" calling for the assassination of Dick Cheney and Sarah Palin.

Dan Savage is many horrid things. And one of the horrid things that he is, is a bully.

To have him speak against bullying is like inviting RuPaul to speak against cross-dressing, to have Ted Nugent speak against hunting, Willie Nelson give an anti-pot address, Bill Ayers to speak for peace, Queen Elizabeth to call for an end to monarchy, Paula Deen against butter.

You need to get him involved, make him see that just sitting around and being depressed just helps the oppressors win.

He needs to go door to door this summer for some candidate of his choice. It doesn’t need to be a person running for President or Senator or even Congress (although ALL congress critters are up for re-election this year, so your grandson’s got at least on race in his area); just GET INVOLVED.

Besides, he’s young, he’s got the energy and stamina that us older people wish we still had.

Sign him up here, at the very least. Especially if he’s serious-minded. He’ll like it!

I am confused.... Are they each husbands, or is one of them the wife, or could two men both be wives. Just how is the nomenclature determined? I think your two words work much better.

The Bible tells how Sodom became so wicked that when angelic visitors came to Lot’s house, all the men in the town surrounded the house and demanded Lot give up his male visitors, so they could rape them. To make matters worse, Lot offers up his two virgin daughters to appease the crowd. http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+19&version=NIV1984

When we first read this account it seems unbelievable. How could a society get this bad?

I’m beginning to see.

Good on the kids that walked out. There’s still some hope.
