he wasn't a hipster either! that's why I just said hip and not hipster. he was the kind of guy who probably thinks that growing thin sideburns is cool but a soul patch/goatee is not.

Here's the news story, if you can't access the site:

Christian Rock Band Preaches Hate Of LGBT Community During School Assembly, Tells Girls To Be Submissive To Husbands
March 11, 2012
By Stephen D. Foster Jr.

When Dunkerton High School in Iowa invited a Christian rock band called Junkyard Prophet to perform during a school assembly this past Thursday, they never expected to get a hate filled sermon as part of the deal. But that’s exactly what happened.

According to the Lacrosse Tribune, the message was supposed “to be about bullying and making good choices,” such as being non-violent and against drugs and alcohol. “Instead, junior and senior high students at Dunkerton High School and faculty members said they were assaulted by the group’s extreme opinions on homosexuality and images of aborted fetuses,” along with messages against strong independent women.

After the band performed their music, they separated the boys, girls, and faculty in the building, which should have been an immediate red flag. According to witnesses, the band talked to the boys about the band’s Ten Commandments and talked about musicians that have died of drug overdose. The discussion with the girls was much different. The band told them “to save themselves for their husbands and assume a submissive role in the household. The leader in that effort also forced the young ladies to chant a manta of sorts about remaining pure” and would not allow any of them to leave the room.

One parent, Jennifer Littlefield, told the Tribune about a phone call she received from her daughter after the assembly. “They told my daughter, the girls, that they were going to have mud on their wedding dresses if they weren’t virgins. I couldn’t even understand her, she was crying so hard. They told these kids that anyone who was gay was going to die at the age of 42. It just blows me away that no one stopped this.”

According to LGBTQ Nation,”the band is part of the “You Can Run But You Cannot Hide International” Christian youth ministry founded by Bradlee Dean. Dean has advocated for imprisonment of gays and lesbians, and has said that gay men molest an average of 117 children “before they get caught,” and that Muslim nations that execute gays are more moral than American Christians.”

At the end of the day, Superintendent Jim Stanton told the students that the band doesn’t represent the beliefs of the administration and that the school is tolerant of those who are different and that diversity is celebrated in the school. But that doesn’t excuse the inaction of the school staff. They never should have allowed the students to be separated into groups and away from faculty members in the first place. It shows a complete lack of responsibility. And the very fact that they allowed a Christian band with dubious ties to a hate group to perform in front of students is disturbing. The problem is that the damage has already been done. Undoubtedly there are students that completely agree with what the band had to say, and now feel inspired to begin bullying others who don’t believe as they do. What this band did, is indoctrinate students with a message of hate. Clearly, this band holds the same beliefs as many in the Republican Party.

This is precisely why religion should remain outside of school. Though school officials expected a general message of ’don’t do drugs and don’t be violent,’ the current wave of hatred spreading throughout the Christian organizations should have prompted school administrators to research the band’s associations. The school paid $1,500 for the band to perform. That’s tax payer dollars, folks. Tax dollars paid to a religiously affiliated group. That sounds very much like a violation of the religious freedom of students to me. The school didn’t have to invite this band. They could have hired a non-religious band to perform and stress the positive anti-drugs, anti-violence message the school had intended in the first place. Heck, they could have just delivered the message themselves. But they didn’t. They chose a religiously affiliated band with ties to a Christian hate group. This is why parents should bring lawsuits to prevent similar incidents from occurring in the future. This kind of hate speech should not be tolerated in our schools.

I WOULD MAKE THE SEX WITH ALL THIS GIRLS... IF THEY WERE IRRESPONSIBLE, THAT IS

TracerHandVEVO (Tracer Hand), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 15:54 (twelve years ago) link

I like how "responsible" correlates to "no sex" for women. Can we get a ruling on what man responsibility looks like?

mh, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 15:56 (twelve years ago) link

you can distill it even further - "responsible" means "not using birth control"

pdate: WECT-TV reports one of the commissioners who voted to reject the funds, Democrat Jonathan Barfield, expressed his regret on Facebook hours after the commission meeting.

“I’m getting a good lesson from my wife right this minute on the error of my vote,” he reportedly wrote.

“I just interviewed with WECT as I cited the error of my vote. I don’t have the right to choose for any woman,” Barfield went on, according to the station. “If you watch the tape of the meeting you’ll get a better sense of the discussion. Bottom line we should have accepted the money.”

Just marveling at the break between what came out of this man's mouth and the real world that he lives in, even his WIFE lives in, and how unacceptable his stated ideas are. It really is like these men are living & talking in a vacuum.

How long before women everywhere go absolutely Lysistrata until this shit stops?

butvi wouls (Phil D.), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:01 (twelve years ago) link

People do that, they talk about what is right for people to do and speak in platitudes and there's absolutely no connection to the way anyone lives outside of some real "moral" crazies. The kind of crazy branch of my dad's side of the family who was churchy is kind of obviously this way. They're all hucksters or constantly broke and talking about how "the lord will provide" or having kids at the least opportune times.

There are women who pull this same shit, but I'd like to think it's harder to deny because it's more of a day-to-day reality

mh, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:02 (twelve years ago) link

It's like, does he ever tell his wife what OTHER things he has voted on, to get his legislative body to a place where this option to refusing family planning funds is even a supportable question? Did she just not notice that he was this kind of asshole all along?

I wonder how many kids he has, being one of those "abstinence guys"

mh, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:04 (twelve years ago) link

This has to correlate directly with the wave of male commentators led by Limbaugh who, in recent weeks, pretty much showed that they have no idea how female hormonal birth control works. I can just imagine him going home:

M: "I can't believe we almost accepted funds for that birth control stuff! It seems horrible."
W: "Dude that is what I take every day"
M: "Every day?!? But we haven't had sex for weeks!"
W: "..."

mh, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:06 (twelve years ago) link

well tbh I can't ever recall birth control (like for adults) being a hot button ish for anyone except Catholics? like I think in general this no pills 4 u hussy is some thing pretty novel for most of the right; I could see that guys wife being a little surprised to hear that his politics had suddenly shifted on an issue that had for many been sorted some time ago

xp lols

catbus otm (gbx), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:10 (twelve years ago) link

It's not even a hot-button issue for Catholics. 98% of Catholic women have used bc.

kate78, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:19 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, I thought there was just a consensus that contraception exists, everyone uses it, we're just not gonna talk about any dogmatic problems that might concern. Maybe it's the controversy over 'abortion pills' that has muddied the waters.

windborne grey frogs (dowd), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:25 (twelve years ago) link

the controversy isn't birth control itself, it's the use of taxpayer dollars to pay for birth control.

Uh that's the publicly stated reason, but I think it's manifestly clear at this point that the real problem with birth control existing at all is women having sex. Like that guy I quoted actually said: it's responsible for women not to have sex. Any sex. That is what we should all be working toward.

yep.

kate78, Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:30 (twelve years ago) link

'Slut' is a different insult from 'tax leech', though it's probably confusing to disentangle people who genuinely only have a problem with the latter from those throwing around the former. The rhetoric framing the issue has definitely been dominated by the misogynistic rather that the fiscal.

windborne grey frogs (dowd), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:34 (twelve years ago) link

I mean, the arguments may start with "I don't want my tax money going to..." but they generally seem to end in the "slutty college girl" area.

google proof'd btw. basically a riff on another blog called "b4ngable dudes in pr0 cycling" that has actual writing on it and isn't just a WS thread of ladies that race. it's just.....boner makers??? so needlessly crass and weird and always already about some guys dick and not the pretty, fast bikin chicks he purports to admire

anyway birth control

catbus otm (gbx), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:39 (twelve years ago) link

Ooh, interesting, gb. The url is obnoxious to me. But the pics, with some exceptions, are mostly just of women with muscles riding bikes? There are some cleavage shots of actual athletes doing athletics in low-cut sports bras or w/e but mostly it's people hunched over bikes with big helmets on, wearing regulation gear. Iirc the dude blog this is "based" on is written by a friend of yours? It was...lurid. Quite. But amusing. I think this one is actually cleaner!

drawn to them like a moth toward a spanakopita (Laurel), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:46 (twelve years ago) link

it totally is! and is, as you point out, just admiration for the tuff chix of cycling, hardly salacious. AND YET: let's make our boners a crucial part of the enterprise anyway

and yeah a friend of mine is behind the other one. not my cup of tea a lot of the time but it's panned out well for her as a thing so I'm cool with it

catbus otm (gbx), Tuesday, 13 March 2012 16:49 (twelve years ago) link

I mean, the arguments may start with "I don't want my tax money going to..." but they generally seem to end in the "slutty college girl" area.

no question this is what's going on. just pointing out the actual, legislative actions that have ignited these recent flare-ups. Like, yes there is a consensus that contraception exists, that everyone uses it, and that dogma doesn't really matter to most people - but introducing this issue as one of the public facilitating "sluttiness" subsequently allows all these less, shall we say, charitable concerns to come out.

cuz everyone hates sluts, right? I ain't payin my taxes for no sluts!

it also feeds directly into the "hardworking, upstanding Americans vs. lazy, amoral leeches" narrative that the right sustains itself on
