Radio Hosts Encourage Violence Against Transgender Children



Even by the flexible moral, ethical, and professional standards of American talk radio, the May 28th segment of KRXQ 98.5 FM Sacramento's Rob, Arnie, & Dawn in the Morning radio talk show makes for a sickening half-hour of ugliness and cruelty. For once, the focus was not LGBT adults, but minors. The hosts, Rob Williams and Arnie States, devoted the segment in question to a vicious diatribe against transgender children, some as young as five, focusing in particular on the case of one Omaha family raising a gender dysphoric child, and their decision to support her transition from male to female.

Williams and States took turns referring to gender dysphoric children as "idiots" and "freaks," who were just out "for attention" and had "a mental disorder that just needs to somehow be gotten out of them," either by verbal abuse on the part of the parents, or even shock therapy.

"Allowing transgenders to exist, pretty soon it becomes normal to fall in love with the animals," they said.

For his part, States bragged that if his own son were to ever dare put on a pair of high heels, States would beat his son with one of his own shoes. He urged parents whose own little boys expressed a desire to wear a dress to verbally abuse and degrade them as a viable response. "Because you know what? Boys don't wear high heel shoes. And in my house, they definitely don't wear high heels.

"I'm going to go, 'You know what? You're a little idiot! You little dumbass!'" States sneered, adding later, "I look forward to when go out into society and society beats them down. And they wind up in therapy."

crucifying them on rural fences?

unless they provide a list of advertisers to complain to.

that's quite a list

To answer my own question:

It's our turn to use the tactics that have worked for the radical right to do some good for a change!

Anyone who'd say "You're a little idiot! You little dumbass!" to a child, anyone who'd wish a societal beatdown of his child, transgendered or not, is vile, vile, vile.

He's the idiot, he's the dumbass, and I hope he gets fired from his job! Kick and Recommend.

What exactly is this supposed to mean? Are they saying the "authorities" should kill innocent people?

From Wikipedia:

Transgenderism and science

Some recent findings have provided clues and possibly answers as to how or why some or most cases of transgenderism occur. In 1997, J.N. Zhou, M.A. Hofman, L.J. Gooren and D.F. Swaab conducted tests on the brains of transgendered individuals. Their tests showed that the volume of the central subdivision of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTc), a brain area that is essential for sexual behaviour, is larger in men than in women. A female-sized BSTc was found in male-to-female transsexuals. The size of the BSTc was not influenced by sex hormones in adulthood and was independent of sexual orientation. Their study was the first to show a female brain structure in genetically male transsexuals and supports the hypothesis that gender identity develops as a result of an interaction between the developing brain and sex hormones. <71> Perhaps confirming why this brain difference occurs, in 2008 at Prince Henry's Institute of Medical Research in Melbourne, biological studies were performed to attempt to find a link between genes and transgenderism. Their study shows male to female transsexuals are more likely than non-transsexual males to have a longer version of a receptor gene for the sex hormone androgen or testosterone. The research suggests reduced androgen and androgen signaling contributes to the female gender identity of male to female transsexuals. They say that it is possible that a decrease in testosterone levels in the brain during development might result in incomplete masculinization of the brain in male to female transsexuals, resulting in a more feminized brain and a female gender identity.

...or else he means a mob approach for the same end. Nothing can be allowed to dilute the purity of the Master Race (tm). :mad:

Once again, incitement to violence gets an all-clear from the network.

What is it with these people and animals? They always play the bestiality card. I think they are angry because of unrequited love for a woodchuck.

This is incitement to violence.

I loathe people. FFS. :banghead:

And listening to some of their callers, it's the same old victim mentality the hate-filled bigots of this world always fall back on.

Rot their bones, both of them, and Dawn should also be ashamed, if it was me I would have thrown down my microphone and left the studio.

In any sensible civilization people like this would be in the loony bin talking to the walls, not spilling their bile against children onto the airwaves.

on another subject:

"You know, if
one person, just one person does it they may think he's really sick and
they won't take him. And if two people, two people do it, in harmony,
they may think they're both faggots and they won't take either of them.
And three people do it, three, can you imagine, three people walking in
singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and walking out. They may think it's an
organization. And can you, can you imagine fifty people a day,I said
fifty people a day walking in singin a bar of Alice's Restaurant and
walking out. And friends they may thinks it's a movement."

McDonald's is listed as a sponsor of KRXQ radio. Are you aware of the recent diatribe against transgendered children on the Rob, Arnie, & Dawn in the Morning radio talk show? This hardly accords with McDonald's corporate image.
