Do you think I'm over reacting? ?

Well I just saw this news story out of Canada of all places. Its by far the most disturbing thing I ever read out of a politician outside of the middle east. Perhaps I was way to hasty in my view's about gun ownership. I fear history is about to repeat itself, It seems like we are in Germany in 1938 and the social and economic hardships will be blamed on a small group of individuals. I feel that even thou the audience in this forum found the speakers comments to be in poor taste the fact that he feels his religious convictions calls for this seemingly drastic measure is indicative of the over all sentiment that is brewing within the greater Christian community inside this country and outside as well. My political views are becoming more motivated by a sense on simple survival. I wonder if the Jews felt or even realized that their right to exist were being decided by how they voted, I wonder how many Jews actually supported the nationalist movement without realizing they were signing their own death warrants. Call me paranoid call me unrealistic either way I pray your right, one thing is clear I will not go gently into that good night.

    This is very disturbing indeed, and I am from Edmonton! wow. I am shocked that someone would actually say something like this. but it says right in the article that he is know fro his extreeme religous views and will likeley be charged with comminting a hate crime. I think that a small group of extreemists like this would never succeed in implementing any kind on mandate that states gays must be killed. It disgusts me that people like this are allowed to speak in public, the use thier power to corrupt and spread hateful messages, and whats even worse, is that some people will rally behind them and support this nonsense.

    There are always people who make outrageous comments about gay issues. Being Canadian myself, I'm both surprised and concerned. I hope the authorities do take some action after investigating him for hate crime. Those kinds of comments shouldn't be allowed at all, and he should be prosecuted.
