In the wake of the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, members of Minnesota’s religious right have weighed in on the end to of the discriminatory policy. Perhaps the most egregious was Bradlee Dean of You Can Run But You Cannot Hide who said it was a plot by Obama to weaken the nation’s military and that Republican Sen. Scott Brown committed treason when he voted for it. Dean also said gays don’t really want gay marriage and that sodomy laws need to be enforced.
Dean and his sidekick Jake McMillian spoke at length on their Sons of Liberty radio show on AM 1280 The Patriot on Dec. 18, the day that Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell was repealed.
“Let’s talk about don’t ask don’t tell for a minute,” Dean said. He read a story of George Washington prosecuting a sodomy case in 1778: “He was the first one not only to forbid but even to punish homosexuals in the military.”
He added that Thomas Jefferson said that the “dismemberment of the offensive organ was the penalty for sodomy.”
“Why was was it so extreme?” Dean asked, “Why was our Founding Fathers so extreme against homosexuality? They knew who the commander in chief was: the God in heaven Jesus Christ?”
He then rattled off a list of punishments for sodomy in the past. “In New York you would be hanged by the neck until you were dead.
In Connecticut, both shall be put to death. I can go on and on and on.”
“Since we have turned our backs [on God], a good portion of the American people have turned their back, then you wonder why your nation is being turned into hell. He told you that’s what he’s going to do.”
He added, “Remember the good guy Scott Brown that everybody was cheering on. Everybody was happy about Scott what did he do? He just found himself committing treason and saying ‘hey ill break the vote. I’ll be the guy to do it for you.'”
Toward the end of the broadcast, Dean said, “For all those folks who just bought the lie, isn’t it amazing how Obama had this on his agenda since day one, [sarcastically] We all know Obama loves our country, now he knows that by advocating homosexuality in the military weakens your nation, that’s what he knows and that’s exactly why he did it.”
Here’s a transcript of some of the more anti-homosexual rants:
Dean: Look at the conniving. This is a lame duck session. They just added for pay to stay three more days America so they could push through as many illegal agendas and bills as they could possibly ram down your throat can in the last week that they have power.
Remember the good guy Scott Brown that everybody was cheering on. Everybody was happy about Scott what did he do? He just found himself committing treason and saying ‘hey ill break the vote. I’ll be the guy to do it for you.’
These are payoffs that’s what’s going on in our country. This overthrows your Constitution, Amercia, and you are agreeing with it? Your Constitution does not work for an immoral people. You are giving way to your enemies. To the homosexuals that are advocating this: You are giving way to judgment. You are. In your foolishness, they just did it to you and it’s on your own accord. I can go on and on with this. I’m amazed by the ignorance in this country.
Let’s ask the advocates that listen to us week after week who are too spineless to call in. Let me ask the question: Why is it a repeal? Why was it called Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell? Why is it against the law, and who is fighting to tear down that law and finally let me ask:
Who’s law is it that they are fighting to take down?In 1961 it was illegal to be gay in every state. In 1973 it was considered to be a mental illness. There is a reason we are called the light of world, it’s because we don’t succumb to darkness and foolishness.
Government is not your answer; the god of heaven is.
McMillian: Law doesn’t matter to these folks anymore. Just to understand the fundamentalness of this.
And the foolish argument of bringing it back to civil rights and the black folks, it’s an insult, it’s a slap in the face it’s saying that a sodomite is equal to a black person.
The main problem is that sodomy is against the law of nature and the law of God and the 7th amendment to the Constitution, because the Constitution institutes common law. This shouldn’t even be a discussion. They should not be involved in our military in a federal agency.
Dean: Even in my dealings with homosexuals you have to seriously ask yourself how do you love on these people? You cannot be civil with a criminal mind I’ve found.
Just answer this foolishness, when the federal government approves of somebody who is a law breaker, a sodomite — they always say homosexual or they love somebody. You love anybody you want, the issue is when you commit sodomy with somebody that’s the crime and for the federal government to allow that in our armed forces, the federal government is okaying lawlessness that destroys law
dean: where do you begin to spell out the word tyrrany.
There’s an underlying tow going on in this in the country right now who have had it. Mark my words: They have had it with this garbage and sooner or later if the government doesn’t listen, you are going to begin to hear what is going on in England and other countries because the American people are not going to sit down and take it.
McMillian: Now you’ve got crazy churches that will marry folks that are gay, but a federal agency’s job is to punish wickedness and bless those that are righteous. The government cannot condone that act of civil unions between homosexuals. The government cannot condone the sin of sodomy and that’s the problem. If the government would stand where it stands right now with the law on it’s side, and condemn sodomy, the act of sodomy, we wouldn’t even be having this discussion.
That’s the problem they always say well they love each other. It’s not about love it’s about sodomy. It’s lust. it’s debased lust, but the fact is the government cannot condone that act. We can tell the churches to start preaching out against it: The govt will acknowledge the law of nature, you condemn the sin of sodomy
Now why do two sodomites want to get married, so they can hold hands? it has nothing to do with that. It has to do with sodomy and breaking the law of nature, so the government’s duty is to uphold that law.
Let me tell you who’s a terror in this media right now. We get emails and threats from homosexuals. We get put up in editorials. I go out to these parades and get shouted down and swore at by the pastors and that’s where we are starting to suffer the repercussions for doing what it right
So when you take this kind of law and you say all those that are doing right that are serving, that are moral men, heterosexual men who are married. Now they become the evil ones that are against these poor gays. Now the bible says we are to be protected when we follow in the law. Lets talk about the law. If you aren’t breaking the law then you are just fine. What they want is special privilege to be able to break the law and for you to be able to accept it.
Sodomy my friend is breaking the law, not only gods law, nature, national law, international law and you can punish sodomites and you can punish murderers. The government should execute the law against lawbreakers and sodomites are law breakers.
Dean: Even if you talk to the homosexual communities — and by the way a lot of them are cool, a lot of these guys are cool people —
but I want to get back to principle. You even talk to the homosexuals that are talking about this gay issue, the marriage issue, they are saying ‘who’s doing this?’ because homosexuals want to be promiscuous. By it’s very nature, they don’t want to be married. So you have to begin to ask yourself who is actually advocating gay marriage, because they are not doing it.For all those folks who just bought the lie isn’t it amazing how Obama had this on his agenda since day one, [sarcastically] we all know Obama loves our country, now he knows that by advocating homosexuality in the military weakens your nation. that’s what he knows
and that’s exactly why he did it.And why, again, America, is less 3 percent of America getting their way over 303 million Americans? Because America I love ya but I got to tell ya, because you let it.
