Interesting Quote: Rep. Bobby Franklin


"The Bible says it's a capital offense. You want someone with unrepentant criminal behavior? And it's not just that, neither should adulterers, neither should thieves, neither should a lot of things. The church is full of sinners, but we're told in 1st Corinthians it rattled off the homosexual, the adulterer, the thief, the liar, and such were some of you, but you've been washed, you've been justified and so forth. It's not what you were. You're not punishing a thought. But do you want an unrepentant drug dealer in the military? Same thing."

GA Rep. Bobby Franklin compares us to gypsies, tramps and thieves.

I'm waiting for him to fully show his colors so I can compare him to a box of Saltines. I'm getting that vibe from him.

Kida scary how you can retranslate words in the bible a few years ago and have bible thumpers like this not even question that today. Im not sure if he is clueless, or simply doesn't care, to the fact that "homosexual" is an incredibly new term ... and the word it replaced had nothing to do with homos.
