Klingenschmitt Hopes To Push Gay People 'Back In The Closet' | Right Wing Watch

On Friday's "Pray In Jesus Name" program, Gordon Klingenschmitt was trying to make the case that male-on-male sexual assault in the military has increased as a result of the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell and, in doing so, pointed to former Petty Officer Third Class Brian Lewis, who testified last year about having been assaulted when he served in the Navy.

Of course, the assault against Lewis took place back in 2000, more than a decade before DADT was repealed, so we are not sure how that helps to prove Klingenschmitt's point. Nonetheless, he demanded that the military reinstate DADT in order to push gay people "back in the closet, especially if they're so flagrant that they want to violate one another when they're openly serving",,,

I touched on the military rape issue in response to a OneNewsNow article titled, "A Veterans Day story that focuses on ... homosexuality?" In rebuttal to Matt Barber's insidious twisting of information and callous disregard of rape, it had to pointed out that these military assaults are not necessarily seen as sexual acts but are seen as a humiliating acts; acts of emasculation. In other words, rape is rape; rape is power. But of course that does not fit the Reich's or Klingenschmitt's agenda.
