Donnie Swaggart, son of Jimmy Swaggart: LGBT activists would love to behead Christians

http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/donnie-swaggart-says-gay-rights-activists-would-love-behead-christians

On the televangelism show "Frances and Friends," Donnie Swaggart, son of Jimmy Swaggart, claimed people who supported an anti-discrimination ordinance in Houston, Texas, would just love to kill people in the same way as terrorist group ISIS.

From the article:

"All of this is to shut the Bible up," Swaggart declared. "They want the Bible gone. And I'm going to make a statement: These people that are trying to do this in Houston, the only difference between them and ISIS, those thugs in Iraq, is those here cannot chop our heads off. That's the only difference. The heart is the same. The heart is the same. If they could silence us that way to intimidate others, that's exactly what they would do."

of LGBT crime on Christians have there been? Now add up the murders, assaults and rapes committed by Christians against LGBT. It's perfectly clear, without rule of law or in a Theocracy, who would be doing the killing.

Exactly zero of the LGBT people I have ever met, would want to do that.

If he believes other people are plotting to kill him, he really does need help.

And boasting of their shining light of understanding... as long as they don't have to live next to gays. Or bake cakes for them. Or allow them into their (gasp) churches. Or let them teach their youth. Or allow them basic rights. Or employ them. Or give them unconditional parenting. Or refrain from making off color jibes...
So hell, the more ridiculous claims they can echo, go for it, fools. Here I come, gay and ready to EAT your children.
