A pastor took a stand against the stupid virtue-signaling rainbow bull-shirt that idiots do on Facebook to show other idiots how much they support gay people. The tolerant, inclusive gay left responded with reasoned argument porn, feces, and threats of violence.
Since the ministry’s webpage listed Penkoski’s home address, he and his family have become targets. Their car was keyed and they received feces in the mail. The pastor also reported receiving hate messages and even gay porn in his email inbox.
“They sent fecal matter to our house, gay porn to our house,” Penkoski told the Christian Post. “Last night, for instance, someone threatened [in a Facebook message] to rape me. They said if I disrespect their pride flag they would come pound my a**.”
“These people are absolutely horrid,” the pastor continued. “These are the kinds of things a decent human being wouldn’t do, regardless of whether they are Christian or not. It was all meant to bully us and try to silence us.”
He added that his family “received messages of ‘You should die,’ ‘Go kill yourself.'”
Because of the threats, he and his family have been forced to move out of their home.
Congratulations, Gay Left. You’ve become the exact monsters you claim the people you hate are.
Call the police. Call the postmaster. If you received any obscene emails, release them so that the good guys can doxx the sender’s.
If anyone was foolish enough to show their real name on Facebook, released that too.
Time to fight back.
This is really horrible. How low can these lefties go?
I do not support car keying, sending faeces in the mail, threatening death upon someone, or any like harassment/vandalism.
Wow. Just wow.
Reading the full context of the linked article, this group was just asking to get trolled with their statement on how they would ban anyone using the pride flag emoji. But the left has no ability to restrain itself to just annoying the heck out of these people until the next easy target comes along – doing that would entail actually having fun and understanding that it’s not a requirement that everybody agrees with you (both seem to be foreign concepts to them). Instead they rapidly escalate to full-blown criminal behavior and become those monsters like what you say, V.
This is yet another reason I don’t engage in social media any more than absolutely necessary (blogs excluded 😉 ). You put out personally identifiable information, people who’ve never met you decide you’re a horrible person based on some arbitrary standard of morality, and the mob attacks however it can using that data. Jobs lost, threats of violence, etc. I find it much more fun to discuss / debate thungs face-to-face (or equivalent) where the only people listening actually understand the context of the conversation & the tactics at play.
I am in the process of withdrawing from social media, as well, crispy. The Zuckerberg Personal Data Aggregator helps keep me in touch with my family, but I’ll be switching to a pseudonym on it. I use my Twitter feed mostly for sports these days. Never did Instagram or Pinterest, thank Odin.
is the treatment of this pastor another example of the moral superiority of liberalism?
I don’t agree with the pastor’s ban (however I find all those Facebook filters lame).
But it’s always nice to see the champions of tolerance ruin somebody’s life because he doesn’t agree with them.
The left’s definition of tolerance is “we are tolerant of your ideas and beliefs as long as you agree with us.”
“Congratulations, Gay Left. You’ve become the exact monsters you claim the people you hate are.”
The Gay Left and those libertarians that would aid and abet them have always been the violently borderline confrontational and criminal communists and national socialists. That’s why they were rendered politcally and economically impotent in November 2016 thanks to electronic media. RIP, 1955-2016. Read K Schlicter’s tongue in cheek satire of how less than 2% of the population fantasizes of a military coup to overthrow the Trump administration at Townhall.com. It’s hilarious.
Yet another illustration of a truth I have discovered:
You become what you vehemently hate.
Therefore, do not hate.
If only those leftists who so fastidiously register their disapproval with left-wing violence on this blog were willing to express such disapproval on left-wing gay blogs where this behavior is encouraged. THen, it might matter.
The left is the poster child for hypocrisy. End of discussion.

The radical Christian Right do tend to say a lot of scary shit, actually. There are pockets of them that I would easily put in the same category of the most fanatical Muslims. There are radical Jews like that, too… and I am going to guess the same about radical Hindus, Buddhists, etc. What they say is one thing. What they do is another. Whether what they say and/or do influences others, people have argued over the course of history.
But anything radical, including far Leftists, far Rightists, progressives, socialists, communists, nihilists, actions of the envious, greed for money, etc, etc, all have the tendency to run roughshod from its inception or as a result of time.
There is a case to be made for Moderates, of course, but how does one go about moderating moderation without regulating the crap out of everything and deciding what is or isn’t considered moderate? This includes ideas of social norms and what is considered normative behavior and beliefs, cultures, and all that.
Hence, we have pendulum swings since the beginning of human civilizations. It can go either way a little too much, and bang. It starts all over again, considering the chaos didn’t wipe out all of society.
Right now, we are in conflict over a great many ideas and being on a global 24-hour collective open forum is making things potentially explosive. One can even argue whether this much openness proves to be too much for people to handle. But then again, mass destruction has happened without everyone being quite so aware of the world… or quite so inside their own.
Can you start to see a justification for intrusive state surveillance?
There have always been loons and there always will be. Liberty, though, depends on people showing a little restraint and considering, at least for a moment, that some of these fuddy-duddy traditions have a reason for existing. In a nation of 300+ million people, it is not possible for everyone to get his/her/whatever way on everything all the time. Like gravity, it’s just the way it is.
A virtuous people require few laws. A decadent people need a lot of laws even though it’s not possible to pass laws for every conceivable situation (things once left to common sense).
