Discussion: Pence Calls Criticism Of Wife's School Over Ban On Gay People 'Deeply Offensive'

[lestat]

Perfecting the art of sanctimonious victim-hood.

By their fruits shall you know them…

I find your wife working for a closed-minded bigoted private school offensive.

So I guess we’re even.

[paulw]

I am deeply offended by Pence’s attempt to co-opt the term “christian” to mean “bigoted, hateful and retrograde”.

I’m sure he cares that I’m offended, because listening to your enemies is a prime christian value.

[jfromny]

A school funded by and protected by the most dominant religion in the country bullies a historically disenfranchised minority and then cries that THEY are the victim when they receive criticism for said bullying.

Nobody plays the victimhood game as well as the GOP and their flock.

“In truth, there was only one Christian, and he died on the cross.”

[proudlibtard]

Not near as offensive of their hatred in the name of their baby jeebus.

Let us bow our heads and pray the cray away.

Don’t sweat it jackass - the Rapture is coming any day (week, month, year, century, or millennium) now. It’s just around the corner.

@rod

Just STFU and turn the other cheek,

If he turned the cheek he wanted to his wife couldn’t work at that school.

[jmacaz]

Hopefully you are serious because Pence just might take you up on that

“We’ll let the critics roll off our backs…”

“As in Isaiah,” he continued, “I offer my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pull at my beard.”

This school and the Pences are NOT christians.
Don’t know what they are but they are not following the teachings of Jesus.
WE are offended with all of them.

[riverstreet]

Who broke this story? What wretched reporter dug through garbage cans to expose the private life of Mrs Pence?

Shortly after it was announced

Never mind.

[mbsilverson]

Yeah, Pence: because banning people is sooo classic Jesus.

[zillacop]

Yep, love those christian values. They probably don’t allow people of color into their fine establishment. Gag me with a spoon!

[nowarino]

Remember folks, if you don’t accept their religious discrimination you don’t believe in pluralistic society!

[debberg]

So Pence notes…"The freedom of religion is enshrined in the Constitution of the United States. … ", I guess he forgets about that nagging little freedom of speech part hiding in the constitution too…

[tena]

Fuck you, fuck your wife and fuck your feelings.

[tall104]

Its christian bigotry that is being attacked, christian bigotry that is offensive. You’re correct whining pency–its not illegal, just offensive.
