“You know what is gross — your thoughts and prayers and Islamophobia after you created this anti-queer climate,” ACLU staff attorney Chase Strangio tweeted on Sunday morning. Does the illustrious Strangio actually believe that Omar Mateen was incited to commit mass murder in the gay nightclub in Orlando by an “anti-queer climate” created by Christian conservatives? He probably does, since, as a Leftist, he knows that non-Muslims are always and everywhere to blame for atrocities that Muslims commit.
“ACLU lawyers blame ‘Christian right,’ GOP for Orlando terrorist attack,” by Joel Gehrke, Washington Examiner, June 12, 2016:
Christian conservatives are responsible for the mass shooting at a gay bar in Orlando because they “created this anti-queer climate,” according to American Civil Liberties Union attorneys.
“You know what is gross — your thoughts and prayers and Islamophobia after you created this anti-queer climate,” ACLU staff attorney Chase Strangio tweeted on Sunday morning.
About 50 people were killed last night by Omar Mateen, a U.S. citizen born to Afghan parents suspected to have “leanings toward extreme Islamic ideologies.” The FBI is investigating the attack as a “domestic terror incident.”
But Strangio — who “spend[s his] life fighting Christian homophobia while being loved & supported by [his] Muslim family” — and his colleagues connected the shooting back to Christians and Republican politicians who oppose gay marriage. “The Christian Right has introduced 200 anti-LGBT bills in the last six months and people blaming Islam for this,” Strangio tweeted. “No.”
Another ACLU attorney who specializes in religious liberty issues scolded Republican lawmakers who tweeted out their condolences. “Remember when you co-sponsored extreme, anti-LGBT First Amendment Defense Act?” the ACLU’s Eunice Rho tweeted at Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., and other Republicans,
House Speaker Paul Ryan was careful not to jump to conclusions about the attacker on Sunday morning. “We pray for those brutally attacked in Orlando,” Ryan tweeted. “While we must learn more about the attacker, the victims & families will not be forgotten.”…

common sense says
“you know what is gross”?
– Blaming other people for problems they did not cause!

EXCELLENT DISCOVERY, SIR ! ! ! This Iranian imam says that Muslims would be doing gay persons a big favor by killing them.
Post that link on Chase Strangio’s Facebook page and Twitter account, please. I put up a link to the Twitter source in another post here.
Bonnie Davis says
Are you kidding me? How long has Islam been around? You know they didn’t have a Vatican 2 type overhaul where they just a few years ago condemned homosexuality. This has been around as long as the Koran has. You , sir, are an idiot! Your name even makes reference to that. Strangio…strange. Get help man [did I get that right?] I don’t want to be accused of being politically incorrect.

Precisely so. Blame your enemy, even if it is not true, for wrongs he did not committ.

Who does this guy blame when his muslim buddies in the mideast throw his fellow gays off of rooftops?
Voytek Gagalka says
Why, he blames “global worming” after his “prophet,” “god” and and master, Obama. After all, “global worming” is also caused, allegedly, by those “nasty and evil” big business which supports GOP, heh?

j_not_a says: “Who does this guy blame when his muslim buddies in the mideast throw his fellow gays off of rooftops?”
Probably something like this: ‘There’s nothing wrong. All they do is teaching bungee jumping without a rope.’

In my humble opinion Islam has been going around “creating this anti-queer climate” much, much longer than anyone else supposedly has done
eduardo odraude says
Being critical of homosexuality is of course not the same thing as believing homosexuals should be strung up or thrown off buildings. Sometimes some heterosexuals are critical of homosexuality. People are also critical of smoking cigarettes or using drugs, but that doesn’t mean the critics want anyone to lose their rights much less be killed. Being critical of homosexuality is not the same as wanting to do what Islam does: hang gays them and throw them off buildings. The reason Achmadinejad believed there were no gays in Iran is that they are rarely seen there because they must hide to avoid being thrown in prison or hung.
Ignorance of the core Islamic texts should be no excuse for Muslim “moderates.” An adult Muslim should know by now — or people should in lawful, polite ways ask him to educate himself — about the core Islamic texts and Muhammad’s totalitarian, violently expansionist, anti-Christian, anti-Semitic, homophobic, misogynistic teaching. The more time goes by, the less excuse they have for ignorance and for supporting this monstrous dogma and its monstrous founding exemplar.
In the earliest Muslim biography of Muhammad, he orders a man tortured in order to get hold of a treasure: http://quotingislam.blogspot.com/2011/06/muhammad-orders-torture-of-man-in-order.html
Laura Teer says

Kathy Brown, Esq. says
Precisely Ed.
I made that very point in a post I put up on FB shortly after hearing of this atrocity.
That is the whole point, is it not? Both Judaism and Christianity condemn the PRACTICE of homosexuality. But KILLING THEM? Uhh…no. Only is-slime does that.
The Strangio is strange indeed…
Paul says
“‘If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.” Quran or Bible? You tell me!
Robert Spencer says
This is just silly. There are reasons why Jews and Christians aren’t massacring people in gay bars and quoting Leviticus. Study the interpretative traditions of all three religions before retailing this asinine moral equivalence.
j_not_a says
@Paul – those laws in Leviticus and Deuteronomy were only ever in force for the Israelites in pre Christian times. They were concluded (fulfilled) by the arrival of Christ and his new convenant. This is explained in detail by Paul and Peter in several of their letters . Those laws are not required to be followed by anyone from that time forward.
Mark Swan says
Paul “Quran or Bible? You tell me!”
James 2: 8, 12,13
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well;
So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.
For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
James 3:8-10
But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.
Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.
Jay Boo says
@Paul
ISLAM
What was Mo’s “revelation” of Allah’s greatest commandment?
Allah is jealous of all other deities, kill apostates and GAYS
—————————————————————-
CHRISTIANITY
“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
jewdog says
Homosexuality is condemned in Halacha and in basic Judeo-Christian ethics, but punishing gay people is also strictly a divine prerogative. Not so in Islam, where gays can be punished, even killed, by Muslims. Sanctioning human retribution in Islam often explains terrorist atrocities which are really just forms of religious punishment carried out for Allah by his Muslim enforcers.
Pldement says
Your comments are rather I’ll fact and redundant. Muslims kill…just to kill. They also contradict their own laws about gays. They keep little boys that they favor from other lands…enslave them, and in turn, offer them to their guests for sexual pleasure. So the hundreds they kill is only a cover for what they really do.
eagle says
The Muslims of the world all have a certain degree of Vulgaris Encephalo Syphilia. Eventually, the Muslim culture will jihad. Obama should be tried for high crimes and misdemeanors for putting the American people in harms way. Obama has encouraged and empowered the Muslims in this country to do ISIS’s work. Why is it, congress will do nothing about this??

Exactly allah is such a weak, pathetic gimp that he always has to get his inbred lunatic followers to do his dirty work for him. allah must be dozing somewhere or taking a dump on the john. Who has ever actually seen him in action for any of his followers? I’d be embarrassed to call him my deity.
cs says
In the times of the Torah the punishment was stoning. But times moved so much over this, really, many laws, like killing because missing Shabbat and others. It just doesn;t happen ages ago. just after the destruction of the second Temple I think they were not doing it. But stoning of adulterers returned in Islamic lands, as Jewish law follows the law of the land in several aspects.
marc says
yep, it was just over 2000 years ago the Sanhedrin (top jewish court) abandoned all corporal punishment mandated in Torah, there has been no update on the matter since.

But come on – why would we want to occupy ourselves with someone like this?
It’s been said here many times and I find myself agreeing to it more everytime: this specific kind of leftists are simply just not right in the head.
You cannot argue with someone who lets his or her emotions restrict his intellectual capacity.
Its obvious this boy(?) hates “right-wing” Christians so much, he will blame everything that’s not right in his world on them. And he will let NOTHING stop him from doing that.
So don’t waist your time on this one.

That Strangio is really strange. At a time when the LGBT has pushed their agenda as far as they have never dreamt of, he criticized the Republican right for trying to defend Christians of their abuse? He really lives in a dream world. Of course, being the son of Muslims he is not going to blame that criminal religion/political agenda of anything. By the way why Christians have to “accept ” the homosexual marriage? You accept what you agree with. If you don’t we are supposed to be in a free country, even thou some times that is also questionable.

Jay Boo says
Obama set the tone today.
President Barack Obama says the worst mass shooting in U.S. history is a further reminder of how easy it is for someone to get a weapon that allows them to shoot people in a school, in a house of worship, a movie theater or a gay nightclub.
Obama when mentioning gun control used the following as examples:
— This night club
— a school
— a use of worship
— a movie theater
He could have mentioned a recent Christmas Party in San Bernardino where two MUSLIMS targeted Christians and Jews but instead he went with a movie theatre.
j_not_a says
If this Omar monster could not get hold of guns, he would have used a suicide belt or grenades. His mission was jihad on the infidels and he would have been determined to succeed. Always the discussion and subject of muslim terror attacks gets sidetracked by those blaming guns instead of the islamic humanoid killing machines and their “orders” from allah.
Islofob IS-1 says
Obama.s tone is tone deaf.
The club was a Gun Free Zone.
Florida law prevents guns inside the club, the only gun “known” inside, was brought in by the shooter, against the law.
After three FBI “chats”, he passed his background check to purchase the Guns. No flags, nothing.
The people who follow these laws, as those who went to the club did, are at the will of a follower of islam with a mission.
How many inside could have protected themselves, and others, if we followed the Second Amendment?
Word is the shooter was a card holding Democrat ,too.
Cecilia Ellis says
Islofob, Omar Mateen was registered as a Democrat in the state of Florida. Here is the official Registration Details:
Full Name:Omar Mir Seddique Mateen
Born: 1986
Residence: Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, Florida
Party: Democratic Party
Gender: Male
Race: Other
Registration Date: July 19, 2006 (9 years ago)
Congressional District: 18th

Is Chase Strangio actually an attorney being paid money by the ACLU?
They are not getting value for money. He’s irresponsible to make accusations without evidence. The son of Afghan immigrants appears to have a motive: Sharia law.
Our Western elites, not having any awareness that Sharia law functions as CIVIL LAW in Muslim countries, are fated to continue their delusions and irresponsible comments until they gain KNOWLEDGE of the Islamic source texts.
Chase Strangio should be dismissed and replaced.

Eloquently stated, Angemon.
Mark Swan says

RobGA says
Interesting that a Muslim should blame the Orlando mass murder on Christians. Was the shooter a Christian…no, he was a Muslim. Are LGBT people regularly stoned, incinerated, shot or otherwise killed in Christian majority countries….no, but they are in Muslim majority countries. For years I’ve lived and worked in a major American city with a huge LGBT community, and they seem to be doing just fine. This ACLU dude is exposed as a liar and a fool by his own words.
Hope says
If the LGBT community wants to defend islam and pretend that Republicans and Christians are the threat, let them. They will continue to be victimized by intolerant, violent muslims until they wake up and smell the jihad. At this point, I have run out of patience with and sympathy for those who are volunteering to be beheaded. Anyone who aligns themselves with islam is an enemy of democracy and deserves whatever they get.
Jay Boo says
The LGBT community must see the myth of Islamic tolerance for what it is.
Even the MSM is up in arms and openly talking about ISIS killing gays.
That was not even brought up or barely mentioned.
By attacking gays, Muslims cannot so easily hide behind their intolerance behind the veil of political correctness.
Hell has no fury as a man wearing designer label slippers.
Look out Muslim world.
isabella van der westhuizen says
The shooter was a right wing Christian fundamentalist who phoned 911 pledged allegiance to Billy Graham and recited the rosary whilst shooting all these people

yes, he was reciting the Beatitudes
Chuck Holden says
The victims were, for the most part, liberals and the shooter was a registered democrat muslim ! Hey liberal morons the last time I looked you can’t buy a suicide vest anywhere ! The muslim was wearing one ! Illegal smuggled guns are far easier to get than legal ones ! Explain all the military grade weapons found in mosques in gun free France you idiot ! If anyone, other than the muslim, had been legally armed there would have been way, way, way less than 103 casualties ! But I a gun free zone the criminal has the advantage ! Why is that such a difficult concept for you liberal geniuses to comprehend ?!?!
j_not_a says
Someone needs to show him pictures of gays swinging from high cranes in the streets of cities in Iran, you know the country where Ahmadinijad said there were no gays
Look and this guy and how he talks. He’d be more believable in a Frankie Goes to Hollywood video. Who could take him seriously as a lawyer. Is he really that oblivious as to how gays are treated in muslim countries?
Lesley says
If he really is from a Muslim famy, then this is an apt use of taqiyya and willfull misdirection. If he is not, then he is woefully uneducated and misled…
Either way, his blame of Christians is laughable and pathetic >:-(
Norger says
You know what is really gross? There are lot of people who will actually believe this sort of rubbish And will conclude that…this has nothing to do with Islam.
By this type of “through the looking glass” logic, the Orlando shootings are somehow yet further proof that “right wing extremists” are more dangerous than Islamic terrorists. And of course, this is also mostly about gun control, not religious warfare.
How high does the body count have to go before our leaders and the MSM will acknowledge the obvious?

Does these liberal idiots realize gays are EXECUTED in Islamic occupied countries? Maybe they know but don’t care?

What I would like to say words cannot describe. Your Muslim culture, CAIR and your Brotherhood are to blame for this atrocity. You continue to threaten the constitution and congress. You plan to rig the voting majority. You are blocking Hillary’s justice. You are destroying this country from within by flooding the country with your Muslim refugees. You must be very proud with your accomplishments. You have bagged congress and Paul Ryan. You must be very proud. God has a very special place for you and it is not heaven. It will be a great wonderful day for America when you leave the oval office, hopefully, for good. Hopefully, the new president will undo everything you have been able to accomplish. He too will have a pen and phone with executive powers, only he will not have to use his executive powers to get congress to clean out the trash you have placed in this government and throughout this country. God bless America and a very special blessing to you. If Obama should be able to understand this, please, I wish you the greatest laugh of your life. Let it be detrimental to all your beliefs.
somehistory says
The ACLU is full of moslims. moslims are psychopaths who do not ever accept blame. If a moslim commits a crime and then admits to the action, in the moslim mind, what was done was not a crime.
This…creature…is using a psychopathic ploy as all psychopaths do, to put the blame on…in this case, Christians as moslims hate Christians; and so do many others associated with the aclu and other groups.
Yes. It is true that Christians take the Bible view of homosexuality. Clearly, many Christians are outspoken about it and none wish it to be shoved down throats by the homosexuals or their lawyers, to be forced to bake cakes, deliver flowers, take photos, or provide space for something considered sinful.
But, Christians don’t go about killing those whom they see as committing sins, even gross ones. Christians leave the judgment and punishment to our God, the Creator, as His Right.
Furthermore, this…creature…knows full well what was said is a lie. islam and the moslim with the gun and the wish to murder for his beast, are to blame.

Not surprising, considering the ACLU was formed as the legal arm of an organization committed to the violent overthrow of the United States government — the Communist Party.

Kathy Brown, Esq. says
‘They would rather be dead…’.
Today was the start of them getting their wish.
Of course ‘they would rather be dead’. The homosexual life is one of depression and suicide. Their numbers are off the charts.
Judaism and Christianity love and want to help these poor people. Islam wants to kill them. Cela se voit.

Here’s what happens to an intelligent ACLU lawyer: https://youtu.be/Yt2WpjpFPTA
mortimer says
What does Strangio think of the following from islamqu website:
“It is narrated from Khaalid ibn al-Waleed that he found a man among one of the Arab tribes with whom men would have intercourse as with a woman. He wrote to Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq (may Allaah be pleased with him) and Abu Bakr al-Siddeeq consulted the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them). ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib had the strongest opinion of all of them, and he said: “No one did that but one of the nations, and you know what Allaah did to them. I think that he should be burned with fire.” So Abu Bakr wrote to Khaalid and he had him burned.
‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas said: The highest point in the town should be found and the homosexual should be thrown head first from it, then stones should be thrown at him.”
awake says
This certainly presents a logical conundrum for liberals, and one that will likely be resolved by the type of nonsense illustrated in this ACLU writer’s article.
Lynn says
No us Christians didn’t cause this muslim to go off the edge. The muslim Imam’s in Colorado all said he wasn’t a muslim. And the deranged muslim mass murderer’s ex wife said he was mentally ill. So I guess that muslim apologists and the ex wife have no clue as to what the Qur’an actually says and how to divide the former from the later (abrogated) verses.
The ACLU was formed by 2 communists and a socialist… not exactly a group to go to for good advice if you still want to have America remain free from Islamic or Communist influence.
Michael Johnson says
Yea just keep on blaming the Christians and overlooking Islam those comments offend me as a Christian because I am one we always are the scapegoat this let’s me know that people don’t know about the bible like they think they do its tells us to pray for people not to kill them I don’t agree with the homosexual lifestyle and never will but I pray they come to know Christ so they can come out of homosexuality and be saved but I would never kill them Islam on the other hand will
