father couldn’t have figured this out on his own.

Can’t read or understand what issues they appear to support - because it interferes with their fund raising.

to say next.

Normally, it takes their actual kid coming out to - hopefully - change their mind since other people, who he may not have met, are too nebulous to activate any latent empathy he has for people in general.

shaming on Facebook from his daughter??? I have to wonder if this jerk even read the bill before cosponsoring it!!

....The lawmaker's comments came after his daughter, Christel Highland, posted an open letter Wednesday on Facebook asking the Kansas Republican why he would “openly attempt at policy that elevates hate and hurts my family or friends.”

“Your most sacred job as an elected official is to serve and protect people,” she wrote. “Your God did not elect you, living, breathing humans beings did. Further isolating the marginalized among the population you serve is far from your duty.

“Hate has no place in public policy. I respectfully request an apology on behalf on my family and beloved friends that this cruel attempt at legislation impacts — viable or not — and I beg that you show yourself to be the honorable man I’ve always known you to be,” she continued. “Ultimately, what is right can never be something that hurts another. You taught me that.”

“I love you, I always will, in spite of your flaws,” she wrote. “I cannot, however, condone your cruel actions. Shame on you.” .............

He too would be happy to limit people's civil rights as long as they aren't in his family.
I guess I should just accept this revelation at face value.

how Highland votes on the bill if it comes to a vote. he can say all he wants now, but what he does when it comes to brass tacks is what matters.

He and his ilk do a lot of hateful things that I think Christ would frown upon.

The bill says that the "state shall no longer be in the parody marriage funding and endorsement business and shall disentangle itself from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) secular humanist church pursuant to this section and the establishment clause of the 1st amendment of the constitution of the United States."

“The state shall not, through any government action create, enforce or respect any LGBTQ or any other secular humanist policy whether directly or symbolically,” the bill adds. “The state shall maintain the separation of church and state, which includes separating itself from the non-institutionalized religions such as secular humanism, expressive individualism and postmodern western individualistic moral relativism.”

an institutionalized religion though. Kinda like a theocracy.

an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...
There are all kinds of "separation of church and state" issues here, even though the separation doesn't appear to include
Christianity. What a shocker.

"LGBTQ secular humanist church". Apparently, in Kansas, the "homosexual/secular/humanist agenda" is a "church" now.
Just not the "non-institutionalized" kind of religion.

LMAO!!!

... It will be the power of shaming to bring them back, away from the hate.

Sure hope so.

Pissy little fuckheads...

Love it.

admonish their relatives for being bought and paid for rightwinger filth...
