My gay-lobbyist colleague Tor Billgren has published a hate speech made by Oklahoma state legislator Sally Kern. Until now, she was best known for her attempts to promote creationism and rid libraries of books that have homosexual themes. Now, however, everyone will know her for saying that same-sex love is a greater danger to the American society than terrorism.

Kern's speech has become a big hit on the Internet, and now I paste it here:

The homosexual agenda is destroying this nation, okay? It's just a fact. Not everybody's lifestyle is equal, just like not all religions are. You know, the very fact that I'm talking to you like this here today puts me in jeopardy, okay? And I'm not anti- and I'm not gay bashing, but according to God's Word, that is not the right kind of lifestyle. It has deadly consequences for those people involved in it. They have more suicides, they're more discouraged, there's more illness, their lifespans are shorter, you know, it's not a lifestyle that is good for this nation.

As a matter of fact, studies show that no society that has totally embraced homosexuality has lasted more than, you know, a few decades. So it's the death knell for this country. I honestly think it's the biggest threat our nation has, even more so than terrorism or Islam, which I think is a big threat.

Because what's happening now, they're going after, in schools, two year olds! Do you know what they're trying to get into early childhood education? They want to give our young children into the government schools so they can indoctrinate them. I taught school for close to twenty years. And we're not teaching facts and knowledge anymore folks. We're teaching indoctrination, okay? And their going after our young children, as young as two years of age to try to teach them that the homosexual lifestyle is an acceptable lifestyle.

You know, gays are infiltrating city councils. Did you know, Eureka Springs, anybody been there, the passion play? Okay, have you heard that the city council of Eureka Springs is now controlled by gays? Okay? There are some others, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Takoma, Maryland; Kennsington, Maryland; in Vermont, Oregon, West Palm Beach, Florida; in a lot of other places in Florida. What's happening? They are winning elections.

One of the things I deal with in our legislature, I tried to introduce a bill last year that would notify parents, schools had to let parents know what clubs their students were involved in. And the reason I did that bill primarily was this: We have the gay-straight alliance coming into our schools. Kids are getting involved in these groups, their lives are being ruined, their parents don't know about it. So I introduced a bill, you have to notify all clubs and things.

And one of my colleagues said you know, we don't have a gay problem in my county, that's why I voted against that bill. Well you know what? To me that is so dumb. If you got cancer or something in your little toe, do you say, you know, I'm just going to forget about it because the rest of me's fine. It spreads, okay? And this stuff, it's deadly and it's spreading and it will destroy our young people, it will destroy this nation.

Ludicrous conspiracy theories. Europeans will recognize these ideas from the anti-Semitic movement that nearly destroyed our continent. Gays are the Jews of America.

But what, apart from religious bigotry, can spark this anger towards gay people? Well, according to some, Kern's frustration might have something to do with her own son being gay. I don't know if this is true, but the buzz in the American blogosphere seems to suggest that it is.

Anyhow, Ellen DeGeneres wants to talk things through with Ms Kern, but unfortunately, her voice mail is full:

It's so silly you have to laugh about it.

Postscript: The anti-gay lobby now takes the opportunity to turn criticism of Kern's hate speech into death threats. They seek the same victimhood whenever they cannot cope with the anger of the very same people they wish to exterminate. But these claims are false and serve only as part of a game where the goal is to gain public sympathy for the hatemonger.
