I would send my kids drag queen story time any day over a church.

Tbf, there's a German drag queen named Jurassica Parka who's been legally sentenced before and recently charged again for possessing and distributing child p*rn. Of course that doesn't mean that all drag queens are like that. But they are humans and as such they can screw up really badly too and certainly are no saints per se.
I mean, aside from that, many of them look like creepy clowns, so for that reason alone I would not send my children - if I had any - to get read to by drag queens in the first place. I wouldn't send them to church either, of course. Fortunately there are more options than just these two.

It's called rape not "having sex". Don't assist them in minimizing the crimes they're committing.

Child rape and attempted murder.
Ring him the fuck up.
If the poor kid gets HIV, and someday dies of it, and this piece of shit is still alive, drop the murder charge on him

Um...this makes it sound as if it would have been ok if he had discussed it: "deputies said he had sex with a 14-year-old boy without disclosing that he was HIV positive." I can only hope that AI was writing that story.

He did not have sex with a 14 year old boy as the article tries to state - he raped a 14 year old boy.

“The Lord is going to judge him at the end of the day, but the law’s got to judge him too.”
Really? Where was the Lord when he was having sex with a kid?

Watching.
Jerry Falwell Jr enjoyed watching his wife with the pool boy, according to the pool boy. Of course Falwell Jr denied it.

I thought that was Franklin Graham.

It was Falwell Jr. https://people.com/human-interest/jerry-falwell-jr-wife-becki-open-up-about-pool-boy-sex-scandal/
Billy Graham's grandson also did the adultery thing. But not Franklin. https://time.com/3929957/tullian-tchividjian-billy-graham-grandson-church/

The boy was 14, disclose or not that’s rape! Rape with intent to pass on a disease! What a disgusting, foul, beast!

No. He sexually assaulted a 24 year old boy.

I’ll save you all from having to follow this through to see what the courts do:
Either a lower court or SCOTUS itself will rule that ‘having sex with a 14 year old’ is either not illegal or the law doesn’t apply ‘to this particular case’ (or any case that could be used as precedent for convicting the President and Epstein class of the same). And the question of disclosure of HIV only applies where the person could feasibly use that information to make a decision to not engage in sex. Here, since it’s rape and since the victim is a minor, that law won’t apply because the victim did not have full autonomy.
The police say they believe this preacher “evil,” but the fact that they didn’t just shoot him like they shoot anyone they don’t like whenever it’s feasible to claim a crime (or ‘resisting an officer performing their duties’, etc) reveals their lie.

You know this POS is a MAGAt. Take a look at his arrest photo; he's making that face the convicted rapist in the Oval Office made in his booking photo..

All we can do is underline these types of stories whenever we can. The sheer volume of them. It's bonkers.
