While schools across the country are taking action against bullying and suicide, a board member of an Arkansas school district is using his Facebook page to encourage "queers" and "fags" to kill themselves.
Clint McCance is a board member in the Midland school district in western Arkansas. Responding to a call to wear purple last Wednesday to support LGBT youth, McCance wrote the following message on his Facebook page: "Seriously they want me to wear purple because five queers killed themselves. The only way im wearin it for them is if they all commit suicide. I cant believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid. We are honoring the fact that they sinned and killed thereselves because of their sin. REALLY PEOPLE."
Initially, six people "liked" McCance's message. He also received supportive comments, though some challenged his statement. A commenter wrote, "Because hatred is always right." That led McCance to write, "No because being a fag doesn't give you the right to ruin the rest of our lives. If you get easily offended by being called a fag then dont tell anyone you are a fag. Keep that **** to yourself. I dont care how people decide to live their lives. They dont bother me if they keep it to thereselves. It pisses me off though that we make a special purple fag day for them. I like that fags cant procreate. I also enjoy the fact that they often give each other aids and die. If you arent against it, you might as well be for it."
McCance was again challenged on his statements — and his Christianity. Wrote one commenter: "YOU NEED TO STOP AND THINK FOR A SEC GREAT YOU BIG CHRISTIAN MAN ! SO KEEP ALL OF YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOUR SELF YOU DONT WANT PPL TALKIN ABOUT YOUR FAMILY SO DONT TALK BOUT OTHERS."
McCance responded with, "I would disown my kids they were gay. They will not be welcome at my home or in my vicinity. I will absolutely run them off. Of course my kids will know better. My kids will have solid christian beliefs. See it infects everyone."
It's not clear if McCance has taken down the thread, since his Facebook page is private — the messages were made available to The Advocate via a forwarded screen capture. The superintendent of the Midland school district was unavailable and a phone call to the principal of the Midland High School was not returned. There was no response to e-mails to the superintendent and to the secretary of the Midland school board.
"Clint McCance has put a face on the hate that devastates our young people," says Human Rights Campaign president Joe Solmonese. "McCance shouldn't be allowed near children, let alone managing their education. We call for his immediate resignation from the school board."
Other pupils at the school were left confused and upset after the boy’s decision was announced in a school assembly, according to newspaper reports.
Pupils were warned that if they refused to refer to the boy as a girl and use the new name he has adopted they would face punishment.

So what exactly is wrong with a boy dressed as a girl?
In other places, the lunatics have been taking over the asylum:

There's a difference between the school board saying gay people should kill themselves and a person ON the school board saying gay people should kill themselves.
I, for example, am an American. I say we should blow up the moon. The headline "America says we should blow up the moon," however, is not accurate.
It's weird, that's what's wrong
Wow, aren't you a peach. You call people you disagree with "lunatics".
More red herrings that have nothing to do with the topic of the thread.
Transgender people, and people who don't conform to the made up gender binary society put's on us, aren't weird, plain and simple.
Anyways, the school board member should be relieved on his job....
....so the non bigots can help every student in their district.
Fired just for not thinking the right things? There's 'tolerance' for you.
An interesting thing about liberals is they like to claim that sexuality and its behaviours are artificially conditioned, yet accept no dissent on things like this.

I'm all for tolerance, but there are limits...such as endangering the lives of children!
McCance responded with, "I would disown my kids they were gay. They will not be welcome at my home or in my vicinity. I will absolutely run them off. Of course my kids will know better. My kids will have solid christian beliefs. See it infects everyone."
I don't get what your trying to say here.
At least we can kind-of agree on that. If he'd disown his own kids for being homosexual, he probably wouldn't help others either.
Sexual offender? For having consensual encounters with other adults?
If their kids missed 19 days of school they could face court action.
So how would you have handled this situation differently?
Then what was all that 'binary' stuff you were talking about?
I cant even begin to count the ways that short circuts logic.It's weird, that's what's wrong (and I don't mean that in a hateful way).
And exactly what harm is there in letting the kid dress up like a girl? If he grows out of it, he grows out of it. If he grows up to be a transvestite, who cares? It's no skin off your ass either way.When the boy's an adult he can do as he pleases but as a kid he could do well with having somebody look at him. And his parents, probably mixed up themselves under the circumstances, probably think it kinder to indulge him.
Again, a massive so what?But he's not a girl (even boys' brains are different) and could even be open to all kinds of exploitation without supervision or being made to behave himself on the premises. (I can't find the link but I once read a news article of a paedophile facing a court hearing for having a 'relationship' with an underage gay transvestite. The boy said he loved the man but the judge still threw the book at the pervert.)
Because you're doing such a fantastic job of it now.That said, just because he's a bit warped is by no means giving bullies free licence. Irresistable temptation as it may be, bullying should be punished if the strong are to protect the weak.
It is my opinion that such people are a throwback to a time when Christianity suffered fewer challenges to it's authority from the sciences and other rational movements. He is a picture of what we can expect, a reminder, if we allow Christianity to go unchallenged. The impulse to cruelty is strong in the human condition. The use of religion in is furtherance sees it at it's most insidious. The only defense: the rejection of claims with no objective evidence.
For someone like me who is NOT monogamous, you might seem weird. Does that make sense?
And exactly what harm is there in letting the kid dress up like a girl?
Why is he more likely to be exploited and abused because he dresses like a girl?
Because you're doing such a fantastic job of it now.
Am I talking to another 'gender binary society'-type person now?
As you say, harm is a relative measure. In terms of not caring what kind of condition his fetish could be a symptom of (or any peculiar way it manifests itself), none at all.
Has he been looked at, I wonder? Is there something up with him or is he otherwise normal but just going through some kind of phase?
There are perverts out there enough as it is.
But I don't know. Maybe the morality-softening, gender-bending sexual revoltion's passed most of us by:

There seems to be a consensus, as a quick Google search proves.
Prepare to dive:
Even adult women dressing as girls is a fetish!
Moderator's Warning: |
Wait. How is dressing like a girl a fetish?
It can seem like there is a world of difference in all this but the reality is this is nothing more than a subset of fethisitic behavior.
