He called the gay-rights movement "probably the greatest threat to America," likened gay activists to Muslim radicals and dubbed same-sex relationships "abominations."

Buttars told Cowan the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community doesn't want "equality, they want superiority."
"It's the beginning of the end," the West Jordan Republican said. "Oh, it's worse than that. Sure. Sodom and Gomorrah was localized. This is worldwide."

Um.. correct me if I am wrong but isnt this what the people of his ilk said when  Blacks wanted equal rights? They wanted superiority... not equality... Those damn uppity folks would get it on over on us poor white people, and would end up makign the rules, and taking over. ( I bet they shit themselves with Obama)

I am so sick of these morons.

Equal rights is a right... not an opinion.

We were just discussing this in class.

*sighs*

Any one who has actually studied the bible knows that the distruction of Soddom and Gomorrah was not because of the buggery... or the sex. It was Because they would not welcome in strangers. The angels in disguise. Very few good people lived there, so they were saved, and the wicked were distroyed. Why is it that the ignorant herds always use this example? They are the ones now who do not welcome in the strangers. Damn fustrating.

Well, he can be voted out of his office and sent back home.  It is up to the voters in Utah to make that happen.

Well unfortunatly they most likely wont vote him out.

"Last year, the NAACP called for Buttars to resign after comments he made on the Senate floor about a complex school-funding bill, saying, "This baby is black . . . It's a dark, ugly thing."
But Buttars kept his seat and won re-election in November. "

We are talking UT. He was a bishop in the LDS church, and worked hard to get gay mormons excommunicated.

I wish civil rights, and equal rights were not a matter of opinion.... I wish it was a given. all created equal, and deserving of equal rights.

With blokes like this mucking about it makes it all the harder to get to the point where equal rights are a given.

Well Gwyn, since the likely hood of us getting our hands on him, to "convince" him, how really evil we are..........is quite slim, I am going to just keep ignoring these crazy idiots and keep converting his type of followers one by one.

I don't live in Utah, so I really don't care.  I'm not a Mormon, so I don't care if they excommunicate every homosexual in the congregation.  You don't have a right to be a member of a church, and you don't have a right to silence speech you don't agree with.  If this pisses you off, than move to Utah and campaign against him.

Buttars is routinely the source of bigoted comments and downright loopy legislation. His constituents apparently support this. I would strongly recommend that all kinkroids avoid West Jordan Utah.

Hey, folks, I lived in the greater SLC area for six years.  Ogden and SLC (which West Jordan is essentially a suburb of) are as liberal and accepting as Utah gets.  Go to American Fork, Spanish Fork, or Orem/Provo and see how conservative Utah can REALLY be.

Being African-American means what?  What's the difference in the job description because of his race?

Hi, I recently moved from West Jordan :)

It isnt a matter of what his constituents support, it is a matter of what the church supports
Fortunately, his ilk are being gotten rid of in this state, and The greater Salt Lake City area ((Which has one of the highest gay populations of any state)) is a large step away from what this asshole wants or thinks

Please friend, dont tell people to stay away from a place that you have never been to
Its just ignorant

Who said I haven't been in West Jordan? I have been and as is clear from recent events it is still the same place it was when I was last there.

And I won't be back and won't spend any money in Utah as long as the state's junior senator is an ex gulag commandant and as long as people like Buttars are running the state house.

This Buttars jerk sounds like as big an asshole as Rick Santorum. And the only good thing I can say about Santorum is his present position: former United States Senator from Pennsylvania.

You're probably right given that his comments and opinions are possibly fuelled by a fascination about getting a boner up the rear end. They might dress it up with Biblical references, but this is most often the basis for their opinions.

However when taking into consideration that most in the LGBT community have the emotional support of at least one heterosexual in their lives, many heterosexuals don't have an issue with seeing that equal rights, acceptance and understanding is a necessity irrespective of one's orientation.

So since it isnt happening in your state it doesnt matter. I suppose if they started lynching blacks in oh say.. North Carolina you would feel much of the same?

It is people that dont care that allow evil to not only exist but to thrive.
