Pete Buttigieg says Pence is advancing 'homophobic policies'

CHICAGO — Democratic presidential contender Pete Buttigieg on Friday accused Vice President Mike Pence of advancing “homophobic policies,” saying that while he doesn’t know whether Pence is truly homophobic, his policies are “hurting other people” just the same.

“I don’t know what’s in his heart,” Buttigieg told conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt in an interview airing Friday. But, he added, “if you’re in public office and you advance homophobic policies, on some level it doesn’t matter whether you do that out of political calculation or whether you do it out of sincere belief.”

“The problem is, it’s hurting other people,” said Buttigieg, the South Bend, Indiana, mayor.

The dispute between Buttigieg and Pence, who worked together when Pence was Indiana governor, has emerged in the 2020 race as a flashpoint in the broader societal debate about whether support for LGBT rights such as same-sex marriage are compatible with firmly held religious beliefs and support for religious freedom.

Now that Trump has offered nothing but kudos to Mayor Pete for putting his sexual perversions on public display, the whiz kid of South Bend is hard pressed to find a suitable oppressor to victimize him (and Chasten). Looks like Mike Pence will have to do.

If your main selling point is what un-natural sexual preference you favor, I would say that you have a tough sell to the American public. But then, I guess that would make me a bigot.

People who use butt lube and toilet paper as part of sex should just STFU and keep their perversion to themselves.

Pete Buttigieg is advancing “anti-Biblical” values. He’s attacking Christian, Jewish, islamic, etc......, values.

“Homophobic”??????

“Phobia” implies fear.

There is not a homosexual on the planet that I am afraid of.

A more accurate term would “homosexually misanthropic”.

pho·bic [ˈfōbik] ADJECTIVE having or involving an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something. "she's phobic about spiders" · [more] NOUN a person with an extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something. "a snake phobic" I don't think anybody has "fear" of homosexuals. I think phobic is one of those words like racist that no longer has any meaning at all.

First “homophobic” is a made up word, second, even people who hate homosexuals don't have an extreme or irrational fear of them as the adjective conotates.
