Black Pastors Slam Obama Admin’s Equivalence of Gender Identity Ideology with Black Civil Rights
Breitbart ^ | May 13 2016 | DR. SUSAN BERRY

Posted on 05/15/2016 7:31:53 AM PDT by Whenifhow

The president of the Coalition of African-American Pastors (CAAP) says that the Obama administration’s assertion that single-sex bathrooms are discriminating against gender-confused individuals in much the same way that blacks experienced discrimination in the United States is a “gross insult” to all who fought for equality for African-Americans.

“There is simply no relation between the struggles that Black Americans have faced and the desire of a tiny minority group to violate the dignity and privacy of women and girls,” said Rev. Bill Owens in a statement sent to Breitbart News. “To suggest some sort of equivalence is a gross insult to all of those who marched with Dr. King and faced fire hoses and hatred in the name of equality.”

Obama has also come out in support of legislation that would amend the Civil Rights Act to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex, sexual orientation, or gender identity.

Owens describes HR 3185 as “an affront to the Black community and a theft of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy.”

“Black Pastors will not allow the homosexual and transgender community to rob Black Americans of their battle for civil rights!” he asserts. “If the Rev. Martin Luther King were alive to see this today, he would be angered in the same way that Jesus was angered when he turned over the tables of the money changers.”

Owens referred to attempts by the Obama administration to make the LGBT political and social engineering agendas the equivalent of civil rights a “theft and outrageous extortion and usurpation of the Civil Rights Movement.”

“Transgendered persons are not asking for equal rights—they are asking for special rights that violate the privacy of women and simple common sense,” Owens added.

No worries for the left. Their overseers will whip them back onto the plantation.

This is reminding me a lot of the ‘gay marriage’ garbage, 15 or 20 years before it was just imposed like it wasn’t really a big deal or something.

I think it’s becoming apparent to many people, but we all knew for years, that blacks are very intolerant of homosexuals.

How does it feel like being used as tools? “Useful idiots” came to mind.

And Dems are busy creating another slave class from the Hispanics.

The media should be focusing on the slaughter of the Democrat Party that is coming this November....but, they choose to remain in “LaLa” land feeding the exploits of DJt 100 years ago, and tax return release that no one give one hoot about!!!

I am telling you folks.......DJT is going to go ideep nto the African-American, Hispanic & other minorities communities in major fashion. There is fertile vote ground there, because many of these minorities get it, that POTUS Obama, The CBC, the NAACP & the entire Democrat Establishment has thrown minorities under the bus...”Carte Blanche”. The Black Pastors know it, and the folks know it....know it, too!!!

The media is missing the “sea change” that is alive and well in the USA, and, in forward progress...across the board!!! They are ignoring the Trump mantra...just as badly as the Republican Elite Establishment did, and, they will pay a massive political price for it!!!

Bathhouse doesn't know what it means to struggle. He's been a pampered littled priss since he was a wee lad. He's had everything handed to him has been surrounded with weirdos, creeps and terrorists who have been willing to wipe and powder his butt his entire life.

I'm pretty sure this is a small conservative activist group within the greater Black church, which means they are probably in no way representative of that religious group as a whole.

I'm sick and tired of orthodox (assuming they are) Black pastors still invoking King even though there's no way they can't know about his rejection of historic chrstian theology in favor of a pale humanistic ethical system that uses religion as allegory. Shame on them.

Bathhouse Barry’s perversion of the law trivializes the Civil Rights Act. Skewing the law to change the law, without legislation, is both tyrannical and dictatorial of this renegade president.

He is/was an attorney, Loretta Lynch supposed to be an attorney...it strains credulity that neither one of them sees the wrong in this action.

We need a nationwide boycott by students staying at home until this sick puppy is out of office. It would baffle the local suck-up school boards, and show that parents just aren’t going to stand for it.

If I still had kids in school, I’d sell what I needed to afford private school, or do home schooling, so they would not get behind.

The leftist “leadership” would go into mass pandamonium.

We need to put our foot down on this rising tide of perversion or America will become one, mass, orgy.

I am not intolerant of gays I am just like William Shatner on when George Takei when he came out of the closet and William was like “who cares, be gay or don’t be gay, that’s up to you man”.

That’s right; they raised the same token objections to the “gay marriage” issue and are still firmly chained to the plantation...

That’s a statement Hillary has been flogging in her rants out on the stump.

One of the problems with that premise is homosexuals are very high earners, and a lot of them run entire industries, Hollywood and tech being a couple of them.

Excellent factual — and occasionally anatomically explicit — 10 minute rant on obozo’s parentage and other matters of legitimate inquiry. 
Near the end, the Rev offers a much needed scientific service to the country I personally wish someone — ANYONE — had thought to perform over 7 years ago as it would certainly have spared the nation 7 years of the unmitigated INSANITY now reaching into your childrens’ school lavatories!

PS: Watch it ASAP!  Although obozo has done most of his damage already (and is STILL at it), Google (owner of YouTube) MAY pull it when some obozo flunky calls it to their attention!
