Radio host Dana Loesch says gay people will be stoned to death if Christians can't discriminate against them

Version 0 of 1. Talking at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington DC, Christian radio host Dana Loesch said that Christian liberties stopped gay people from being "stoned for walking out in the street". Speaking at CPAC, which gave other right-wing luminaries such as Nigel Farage and Sarah Palin a platform, Loesch put forward the strange idea. "You don’t have to be a Christian to be affected by loss of religious liberty, because if one liberty is taken, more liberties will be taken," said Loesch, who is also a sometime commentator on Fox News. Describing herself as a "partisan hack", Loesch said that her listeners on The Dana Show had started to "understand" what she was talking about, which was mostly the "muliti-faceted attempt for the government to grab individual rights". "If I’m not speaking up [while] you’re losing rights then what will happen to me when the day comes, if someone comes to me? What if you’re stoned for walking out in the street for being gay?" she argues. "I mean - come on. That’s where the conversation needs to go." In 2014, Loesch wrote the book Hands Off My Gun: Defeating The Plot To Disarm America. |
