http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2015/01/idaho-christian-woman-warns-lawmakers-they-will-legalize-necrophilia-by-protecting-lgbt-rights/A woman testifying at an Idaho House committee hearing on Tuesday warned lawmakers that adding sexual orientation and gender identity to the states Human Rights Act would legalize bestiality and other forms of sexual deviancy.
I have deep love and compassion for all people, as Christ has taught me and by the incredible example of my parents growing up, Laurie Burchfield said at a House State Affairs Committee hearing on House Bill 2. With that said, that love and compassion does not mean I condone the LGBT lifestyle.
She said the terms sexual orientation and gender identity were undefined and open up a Pandoras Box of sexual preferences.
Ladies and gentlemen, do you really want to legalize under this bill pedophilia, sadism, bestiality, necrophilia, exhibitionism, polygamy and many others? Burchfield asked. Those are all within this undefined term.

How does Ms. Burchfield feel about a gay male in a group relationship, including a trans male, whipping a juvenile dead sheep while posting to Youtube? Did I mention that the male in question is wearing a nun's outfit? Would it be any better if he was a "Family Values" Republican congressman wearing an American flag lapel pin on his outfit?
Have I left anything out?

'Add the Words' bill fails to pass through House Committee
Boise, Idaho (KBOI) -- After more than 22 hours of debate, the so-called 'Add the Words' bill failed to pass through a House Committee Thursday.
House State Affairs Committee members voted straight party-line, 13 to 4 to hold the bill, effectively killing it.
Many LGBT supporters left the auditorium in tears, and lined the halls of the Statehouse with their hands over their mouths in silent protest.
"You bare your soul in front of a group like this and you hope they listen in earnest without agenda. I don't know that that happened here," Julie Zicha said, a Pocatello resident.
