S.C. mayor under fire for comments about LGBT

A South Carolina mayor is under fire after expressing her disdain for same-sex marriage in a Facebook status making reference to "queers."

Mayor Linda Oliver of West Union, S.C., allegedly posted on Facebook: "What's it gonna take to get these queers to realize they don't need a piece of paper. God will not bless their union because he plainly speaks against queers in the Bible. Want to cover your queer with insurance? Buy a policy. Want your queer to get your stuff when you die? Make a will," according to the Towleroad.com website.

How dare they clean-up and legitimize this homophobic trash by calling it merely "...comments about LGBT."
