Arkansas School Official Declares on Facebook He Wants Gays Dead

[hungrybrownbear]

His thinking and logic is exactly what Christianity is all about today. It has become a horrible cult of dispicable and hateful morons. The world would be better off without religion and all the hatred it fosters. I would be happier of all heteros died......that is the only logic I know that equals the crap this creep preaches.

Ah yes that's great..... labeling and judging a whole group of people based on the actions of few, to me you're no better.

---------------------------------

I hope people don't harass his family, they shouldn't be held responsible for the horrible things this guy has said. I will say though, in the previous coverage of this with that guy that put him on blast, I have never seen Anderson Cooper so angry.

Concerning McCance, I don't know if it was just insincerity, nervousness or shame, but that guy looked awful fidgety..... like he wasn't even comfortable in his own skin. His eyes were downcast the whole time and his answers weren't very thought out or satisfying, AC should have pushed harder. I would have thought he would have made up something more convincing like "sorry I was intoxicated" or something.

Did he even say why he wrote those comments?

I don't think he will resign, I think he said it because he knew that is what people wanted to hear.

Maybe my gaydar is broken. Did anyone else feel he was gay by the way he was moving his head?

 

[rareboy]

He is such a closet case.

All I know is that if he has resigned, at least there is some justice for him making these remarks. It makes the efforts of the last few days more worthwhile.

There was neither remorse or self-examination in his comments on AC's interview.

He'll be running around complaining about how Fags and Queers have ruined his life and why they're to blame for everything that is going wrong in his life from hereon.

He is such a typical bully. Call one out and suddenly they're the one who is misunderstood and victimized.

What a piece of shit. And I'll bet the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

He'll probably become the poster child for a Fred Phelps telethon.

And the next time we hear about him, he'll probably be up on charges for beating his wife and kids.

He can always run for school board in Iran.

You should never expect too much from Arkansas. It reamains a primitive and backward wilderness inhabited by intellectual dwarfs. Can it not be given back to some other country like Mexico?

 

[zoltanspawn]

I tend to think of bullying as a predominantly juvenile phenomenon. While watching the AC apology interview I felt as though I were watching someone try to fake maturity.

 

[Ninja108]

What I saw on the interview was someone who is a bigot and a bully and is not use to having someone call him out on it.

 

[roadtripboy]

I'm from the south, I've seen his type over and over.

I don't think he's sorry. I think he's upset he got caught. To me he looked more angry than sorry.

And as for the line about having to send his wife and kids out state. More than likely his wife called him a few choice names, TOLD him she was taking the kids and was NOT coming back until he fixed this. There's a reason that movie was called Steel Magnolias. Southern women run their homes, not the men.

David Pakman, host of Midweek Politics, watched Clint McCance’s interview on Anderson Cooper 360 last night, and he didn’t think too much of McCance’s apology. Indeed, here’s David, responding to the apology point by point.

The trouble is that, even if he did change his views, no one would have believed him.

If he changed his views it would be known to those around him, who used to be like him and are being chastised by him because of his changed views.

His views likely have not changed. If anything, they have deepened.

I hope you're right. But she would have recognized his non-apology apology for what it was too. I hope she divorces him and gets full custody of the kids with no visitation.

Tonight on AC360 Dr Phil discusses Clint McCance's non-apology apology, according to AC's twitter feed

Whatever for? Who the hell cares what Dr. fucking Phil has to say about this? He'll probably defend the sorry bastard (those sorry bastards have to stick together).

 

[Críostóir]

Before you go ranting on Dr Phil, do some research. This is his 2nd major appearance on AC360 talking about LGBT bullying and how disgusting it is.

OK.

I just really hate that guy. He appears to think that anyone can just change how they think and react, habits of a lifetime, just by deciding to. I've never seen a rottener therapist in my life.*

The result has been that whenever I see his face I change the channel. I don't need to be enraged by watching trusting people be taken in by an incompetent (or malicious, hard to be sure) therapist.

So I haven't really been tracking Dr. Phil. If he's on the right side on this, more power to him, and you're right, I should have found out. I imagined what he would say ("Well, you don't like being harassed for being gay? Just stop!") without checking what he actually did say, and that was wrong.

I hope that they pursue McCance across the plains of perdition with the hounds of Hell.

Midland superintendent: no word from McCance

[jizzeater]

That's more them (O'Reilly and Carlson) speaking out against invasion of privacy. Not speaking or delving into the issue of gay teen suicides. No one else was mentioned but Tyler.

I saw Hoover trying to get into bullying and teen suicides but got shut down.

To hear some people on this board tell it, everyone over at Fox are cheering gay suicides just like McCance.

 

[Joshua_me]

Oh, his responses to Anderson are such horseshit !

"I mis-spoke"

"I said some bad things"

"I made some poor choices"



ie- My attorney is sitting right to the left of me out of the camera shot and I'm doing everything he tells me to do - including running out and buying this black sweater vest and white collared shirt so I can look as respectable as possible instead of the homophobic piece of white trash filth that I am....

 

[jizzeater]

No. That's not what I said. You're putting words in my mouth. Read it again.

I was reiterating the point I was originally making. You want to get into a debate about whether it is genuinely about gay bullying and I really didn't.

Hoover made her points about an epidemic of gay bullying, and O'Reilly said "and there's no doubt that that's happening." Not exactly shooting her down. Though O'Reilly turned the focus on the actual crime of videotaping, he expressed sympathy in this segment. He didn't make it anti-gay or blame Tyler in any way.

Margaret Hoover is a conservative who has worked for Bush and Guiliani, BTW.

 

[jizzeater]

I have no idea what you are talking about. No where in my post did I suggest that everyone at Fox News wants gay kids to kill themselves.

No, you didn't, and I wasn't saying you did. Others on this thread attributed that kind of over-the-top attitude to Fox. My post was in reply to that.

If you come back with them delving and discussing gay teen suicides like Anderson is then I'll concede. To them in that segment, it was about invasion of privacy and not much else. The issue of gay teens suicide was a side issue. Except for Hoover, of course.

You're going to view it through your own prism, but I wasn't trying to say that Fox is delving deep into the issue like CNN. I was trying to point out that Fox isn't rabidly anti-gay.

 

[Críostóir]

Maybe not rabidly anti-gay but a stretch and moot to post that vid and using it as an example of Fox News' pro-gay stance.

Or, in more conventional language, a complete misrepresentation. Like Fox does themselves.

 

[AlmondMilk]

"Thereselves"??? A member of the school board?

I think I would've been semi-content if this person wrote "Theirselves"

It's sad how some people think.
