Nazi (GOP) Tennessee State Senator Stacey Campfield Blood Libels Gay Men

Just when you thought it was impossible for the Nazis formerly known as Republicans to stoop much lower in their denigrating, scapegoating and abuse of LGBT/T people along comes yet another storm trooper/concentration camp guard wannabee to drag the discourse even lower.

The right wing Nazi scum have turned LGBT/T people into their Jews, second class citizens to be blamed for their own immorality and short comings.

But Muslims, Jews and people of color shouldn't rest comfortably, thinking, "Oh it's only the queers and not our concern." You see the lesson history teaches is that when the Nazis come to power it may start with the queers or another chosen targeted group but eventual it comes down to minority ethnic, racial or religious groups.

As an Anti-Fascist I do not hesitate to call a Nazi a Nazi. I don't give a shit if they don't match the German Nazis of the 30s-40s exactly. After all left wingers in this country are called communists and compared to Pol Pot for suggesting equality between the races, an end to the abuse of women, equality for LGBT/T people and a Public Health Insurance option. They should have considered that not all left wingers are sniveling pacifists who respond to right wing threats by chanting, "Gandhi, Martin Luther King, Dalai Lama."

So Nazi Boy... I'm calling you on your filthy lie. Your Blood Libel.

You are not only unfit for office. You are unfit to be an American.

Stacey Campfield does himself no favors while defending 'Don't Say Gay' bill

Newser) – The Tennessee lawmaker behind the "Don't Say Gay" bill that cleared the state Senate earlier this year is getting a lot of attention for comments he made in defense of the legislation. And it's not good attention. In a SiriusXM interview with Michelangelo Signorile published on the Huffington Post, state Sen. Stacey Campfield justified his bill by, among other things, explaining that AIDS came from "one guy screwing a monkey." The interview covers more of Campfield's thoughts on AIDS, bullying, and homosexuality, which Tennessee schools would not be able to discuss under his bill:

Tennessee Rep. Says It’s ‘Virtually Impossible’ To Contract AIDS Through Heterosexual Sex

Rarely a day goes by anymore when we don’t read a particularly bigoted comment aimed toward the LGBT community. It fills so many headlines that if it wasn’t so terrifying, especially to those who are bullied, it would almost be boring. Just today, our own Mitch Gilbert reportedthat a Tennessee Rep., John Ragan told him that:
“A person is a heterosexual because of the presence of genitalia of one sex or the other. No one except a very few with an exceedingly rare congenital deformity have both kinds of genitalia.”
Apparently, biology isn’t required study in Tennessee’s high schools, because another Tennessee GOP lawmaker, Sen. Stacey Campfield said this today (from Raw Story):
“Most people realize that AIDS came from the homosexual community,” he told Michelangelo Signorile, who hosts a radio program on SiriusXM OutQ. “It was one guy screwing a monkey, if I recall correctly, and then having sex with men. It was an airline pilot, if I recall.”

“My understanding is that it is virtually — not completely, but virtually — impossible to contract AIDS through heterosexual sex.”
