New speaker of the House Mike Johnson once wrote in support of the criminalization of gay sex

—
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson has a history of harsh anti-gay language from his time as an attorney for a socially conservative legal group in the mid-2000s.

In editorials that ran in his local Shreveport, Louisiana, paper, The Times, Johnson called homosexuality a “inherently unnatural” and “dangerous lifestyle” that would lead to legalized pedophilia and possibly even destroy “the entire democratic system.”

And, in another editorial, he wrote, “Your race, creed, and sex are what you are, while homosexuality and cross-dressing are things you do,” he wrote. “This is a free country, but we don’t give special protections for every person’s bizarre choices.”

At the time, Johnson was an attorney and spokesman for Alliance Defense Fund, known today as Alliance Defending Freedom, where he also authored his opposition to the Supreme Court ruling in Lawrence v. Texas – which overturned state laws that criminalized homosexual activity between consenting adults.

2. I find it very troubling when a person is this focused on other people's lives.

No one has ever been able to explain this to me, this obsession with LGBTQ people and how other people have sex or how other people self-identify.
I think it is a sign of something. I’m just not sure if it’s hate, self-doubt, a cover.
I don’t know, but it upsets me deeply.
It didn’t take long for me to loathe this guy and become fearful of his power.

3. These "public facing" Christians are projecting like mother fuckers. There's some wire loose that short circuits their

brains into such extreme hatred. So scriptural. Take a bow Magat Mike.
