Oh, the irony! Many Montana newspapers recently ran a story about Montana’s Republican Governor Greg “The Body-Slammer” Gianforte signing a bill banning drag story events at public libraries and schools. Accompanying that story was a quote from Republican Rep. Braxton Mitchell claiming, “There is no such thing as a family-friendly drag show.”
At the same time a story broke about an investigation that discovered that 450 Catholic clergy in Illinois sexually molested more than 2,000 children. Of course, that’s just a tiny fraction of the children sexually molested in churches. Another investigation found that more than 150 Catholic priests and others associated with the Archdiocese of Baltimore sexually molested more than 600 children, and yet another investigation found 330,000 children molested by clergy in France. While no one knows the exact number of children sexually molested in churches, the number easily reaches into the millions.
We do, however, know the number of children sexually molested while attending drag story hours at public libraries: 0
Could the Montana Republican Party and their perverted version of Christianity get any more hypocritical?
