Bill O’Reilly is once again defending an implication that being gay is equivalent to pedophilia and sexual abuse. He has specifically gone after Colorado House Speaker Mark Ferrandino for opposing Jessica’s Law while supporting civil unions for gay couples, and brings up the fact that Ferrandino is gay at every opportunity when discussing the issue.
On his March 12 show, he said:
“Colorado will not even put [Jessica's Law] up for a vote in the legislature. That’s because Speaker of the House Mark Ferrandino has done everything he can to sabotage the law … We describe the Speaker as openly gay because Americans don’t know who he is and that description is used in almost every article ever written about him. And the reason we brought up civil unions is because Ferrandino objected to that vote being sabotaged by Republicans a few years ago, and then he turned around and used the same technique to table Jessica’s Law.”
red meat in the trough, for the base to feed on and boost is ratings, the only concern he has is that he maintain his number 2 position behind Racist Rush.
O'Reilly is referring to the Denver Post discussing how he conflates Ferrandino's sexual identity with opposing enactment of Jessica's Law, and accuses the paper of being dishonest in its characterization of him.Jessica's Law was first enacted in Florida in 2005 to punish sex offenders harshly, and reduce their ability to commit more sex crimes. Many states have since enacted the same or similar measures, but Colorado, having stringent laws and harsh punishments for sex crimes already on the books, has failed several times to pass Jessica's Law.O'Reilly's stance on homosexuality shouldn't be a surprise to anyone, as he claims to be devoutly Christian and is an extreme social conservative. Around Christmas of 2012, when discussing the so-called War on Christmas, both O'Reilly and his guest, Bernard McGuirk,blamed the War on Christmas on gays and on abortionists, simply because those two things go against Christianity.
these are the types of self proclaimed Christians that not only give it a bad name but questions it's validity when they violate tenets of the religion themselves and the deliberate misleading and support of war on women, where is Christianity in this other then when they say the word?
wheres the "love thy neighbor", or is it they don't live next to him, or do they, and his constant bullying and trying to roar, wasn't that the women's call "i am woman hear me roar" well he does plenty of that makes yo go hmmmmmm?
Matthew 7:1, "Judge not that ye be not judged."
