Robert E Howard wrote, “Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.” But there are times where courteousness really is a bad thing.
President Joe Biden is both Catholic and a Democrat, and he seems to continually go out of his way to tell us just which of those two is more important to him.
Biden condemns wave of state legislation restricting LGBTQ+ rights, says ‘these are our kids’
The initiatives are designed to protect LGBTQ+ communities from attack, help young people with mental health issues and homelessness, and counter book bans, though the effects may be limited.

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Thursday condemned a wave of “cruel” and “callous” state laws curbing the rights, visibility and health care access of LGBTQ+ people, especially children, leaving them feeling under attack like never before and the White House with limited options to intervene.
“These are our kids. These are our neighbors. It’s cruel and it’s callous,” Biden said at a White House news conference with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. “It matters a great deal how we treat everyone in this country.”
Biden commented hours after the White House postponed a large Pride Month celebration with thousands of guests Thursday night on the South Lawn because of poor air quality from hazardous air flowing in from Canadian wildfires.
The president noted steps he has taken to help protect the rights of non-heterosexual people, but said “our fight is far, far from over because we have some hysterical and, I would argue, prejudiced people who are engaged in all that you see going on around the country.”
I’m old enough to remember when calling someone “queer” was an insult!
He said what is happening in some states is an “unjustified and ugly” appeal to fear and called on lawmakers to pass legislation, which has been stalled in Congress, that would protect the civil rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer individuals.
“Congress must pass, must pass the Equality Act and send it to my desk,” Biden said of a legislative measure he had named a top priority during his 2020 campaign.
So, to what legislation do the “lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer individuals” object? Basically, they fall into three categories:
- Legislation banning physical ‘treatments’ of purportedly ‘transgender’ children, requiring that puberty blockers, hormone treatments, and surgical interventions not be allowed on individuals under 18 years of age. We generally do not allow minors to buy cigarettes or alcohol, prohibit them from buying or owning firearms, to consent to sexual intercourse, to consent to medical care, and other things, but the activists seem to believe that children who have not even reached puberty can consent to having puberty delayed or stopped. The activists claim that the state has no business in such intrafamily health care discussions, but the state is very much involved in such, with laws specifying things which constitute child abuse, incestuous relationships, compulsory education, child care arrangements, child neglect, and custody of children in the event of divorce.
- Action to restrict the teaching of homosexuality as something good and normal in the public schools, including the restrictions on such material in public school libraries, where compulsory education laws make students, in effect, a captive audience. Such actions do nothing to prohibit such materials in private collections, bookstores, or Amazon.com.
- Regulations to prohibit sexually explicit shows in situations where children are present.
Why, I have to ask, would our (purportedly) Catholic President want to take actions against things to protect minors?
Well, the answer is actually pretty simple: the normalization of drag shows and homosexual men lowers the resistance of boys to homosexual ‘curiosity,’ which means that a greater percentage of them might just try to take a walk on the wild side. The left hate that sensible people have called them ‘groomers,’ but that’s exactly what they are doing, and exactly what they are.
Reproduction is a strong, innate drive among humans, and this is how homosexuals reproduce.
The Williams Institute, which has an internal bias which would like to see the percentage of the population who are homosexual as being higher, claims that 3.5% of the population are homosexual or bisexual, and another 0.3% are transgender. The Centers for Disease Control conducted the National Health Institute Survey in 2013, when Barack Hussein Obama was still President, and found that only 1.6% of the population are homosexual, with another 0.7% bisexual, and another 1.1% either stating that they were ‘something else’ or declining to respond.
So, if 9% are ‘identifying’ themselves as sexually abnormal now, either homosexuality/ bisexuality/ transgenderism are communicable diseases, or some form of ‘grooming’ actually works. By making homosexuality more societally acceptable, more otherwise normal people might be enticed to at least try ‘it,’ especially if drugs or alcohol are involved.
Simply put, whatever the activists have been doing appears to be working.
We have reached the point, we have passed the point, at which the conservative belief in being polite, in common courtesy, has allowed abnormality to creep into acceptance, and acceptance has been hurting our children and our society. Being polite has moved things far from the live and let live and what people do in their bedrooms is nobody else’s business to you will accept and celebrate homosexuality, and we will tell you what we do in our bedrooms, and you will like it.
Sorry, but no, and not just no, but Hell no!
I concur enthusiastically, but the fact that this is a hill on which Brandon and the Dems are willing to die suggests they may be on to something.
Hell no indeed, but we have to recognize that this is a fully leftwing country now and we are not voting our way out of this.
