Gays Akin to Radical Muslims, Pose Greatest Threat to America: Utah Senator<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Strong comments against the gay community were made recently by Utah senator Chris Buttars during work on the documentary "8: The Mormon Proposition" just a year since he called a black baby a "dark, ugly thing" on the Utah State Senate floor.<\/p>\n

He compared gays to radical Muslims and suggested they may be America’s greatest threat, likening gay rights to "the beginning of the end." Although the footage has only been seen by Salt Lake City’s ABC affiliate, some audio has been released.<\/p>\n

Buttars describes gays as having "anything goes" morals, and "the meanest buggers" he’d ever seen; some comments were too graphic to include. He also takes credit for "killing" every bill related to gay rights in the Utah State Senate since 2001.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

More Here<\/a>…including…<\/p>\n

"This baby is black…this is a dark, ugly thing."<\/p>\n

"What is the morals of a gay person? You can’t answer that because anything goes." <\/p>\n

"They’re probably the greatest threat to America going down I know of."<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Common ground.  You folks out there just keep right on searching for that common ground.  And when some gay basher splits your head open because he’s been told that gays, with their anything goes morality, are the greatest threat to America, you’ll have found it.  Common ground.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
