Wyoming Republican’s Book Claims Gay People ‘Purposely Infected Women’ To Start AIDS Apocalypse

Troy Mader, Republican State Representative for Wyoming, must think homosexuals have nothing better to do than sit around plotting the demise of straight people considering his book’s statement that gay men “purposely infected women to pass AIDS infection into the straight population.”

While Mader’s self-published book, The Death Sentence of AIDS: Vital Information For You and Your Family’s Health was written nearly 30 years ago, he continues to stand by the “information” he presented, claiming that the average homosexual will have 1,000 to 1,600 sexual partners throughout his life and that “10,000 sex partners in the lifetime of a ‘very active’ homosexual would not be extraordinary.”

Another claim in Mader’s book is that many homosexuals “demand the right to have sexual acts with children of any age, including infants.”

GOP Lawmaker: KKK-owned Businesses Deserve Right To Ban Blacks And Gays

By David March 17, 2014 11:27 am

South Dakota state Sen. Phil Jensen (R) believes that a recently-killed bill that would have let companies discriminate against LGBT people should have also let businesses owners in the Ku Klux Klan refuse service to African-Americans.

South Dakota state Sen. Phil Jensen (R) believes that a recently-killed bill that would have let companies discriminate against LGBT people should have also let businesses owners in the Ku Klux Klan refuse service to African-Americans.

Last week, the State Senate Judiciary voted, five to two, to kill Jensen's SB 128, which went even beyond Arizona's failed discrimination bill by explicitly saying that businesses could discriminate based on "sexual orientation."

“As a follower of Jesus Christ, I’m commanded to love, to love everyone. That doesn’t mean I must condone the lifestyle choices that someone chooses," Jensen explained to South Dakota Public Radio. "The GLBT movement doesn’t just want societies approval. They want their lifestyle choices applauded; they want standing ovations."

And in an interview with Rapid City Journal that was published over the weekend, the Republican lawmaker took his support for discrimination to the extreme.

"If someone was a member of the Ku Klux Klan, and they were running a little bakery for instance, the majority of us would find it detestable that they refuse to serve blacks, and guess what? In a matter of weeks or so that business would shut down because no one is going to patronize them," he said.

Good grief I am bringing that average down a ton. All the fun I am missing apparently according to the Repugs. What a crock of crap. Even the 1000-1600 is beyond crazy. I guess they truly believe that we are having sex about 10 times a day with various people. Republicans are seriously deranged.
