Buttigieg handles anti-gay hecklers during Iowa rally

I see the Steve King wing of the state crawled out from under its rock

South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg brushed off anti-gay chants from some hecklers who interrupted his Iowa events Tuesday.

At one event, the hecklers invoked the biblical cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, which the Bible said were destroyed because of the behavior of the residents who lived there.

Supporters of the presidential hopeful came to his defense.

A man in a suit jacket standing to the left of the stage stood up and yelled, “Remember Sodom and Gomorrah!”

"Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy." (Ezekiel 16:49). Sounds like the orange stooge to a T.

In Ezekiel 16:48–50, God compares Jerusalem to Sodom, saying "Sodom never did what you and your daughters have done." He explains that the sin of Sodom was that "She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before me."

Jesus saying that old wine container couldn't possibly be suitable for his teachings. If you can't hate something based on Jesus' teachings, you're probably not supposed to hate it. Of course, Jesus' teaching that you're to get rid of all hate in your heart should overrule everything else.
