The mayor of a town in Alabama has reportedly defended a public Facebook post in which he suggested "killing out" gay people and "baby killers."
Mark Chambers, the mayor of Carbon Hill, Ala., argued during a phone interview with local Fox affiliate WBRC that the comments posted on Facebook and since deleted had been "taken out of context."
According to WBRC, the original post written in all capital letters read: "We live in a society where homosexuals lecture us on morals, transvestites lecture us on human biology, baby killers lecture us on human rights and socialists lecture us on economics."
A Facebook friend of Chambers's responded by writing, "By giving the minority more rights than the majority. I hate to think of the country my grandkids will live in unless somehow we change and I think that will take a revolution."
Chambers followed up with a comment saying, "the only way to change it would be to kill the problem out. I know it's bad to say but without killing them out there's no way to fix it," WBRC reported.

(23,738 posts)Who even talks or thinks about 'extermination' of anyone? That's pathological.
They're unredeemable, and cannot be negotiated with.
At least not the ones that talk about killing out others based on whatever hind-brain impulse strikes them.

(14,857 posts)Obviously, he's thoroughly dehumanized us in his own mind. He thinks of it the same way he'd wipe out a roach infestation. It remains to be seen if his town and his church stand behind him.
