While schools across the country are taking action against bullying and suicide, a board member of an Arkansas school district is using his Facebook page to encourage "queers" and "fags" to kill themselves.

Clint McCance is a board member in the Midland school district in northern Arkansas. Responding to a call to wear purple last Wednesday to support LGBT youth, McCance wrote the following message on his Facebook page: "Seriously they want me to wear purple because five queers killed themselves. The only way im wearin it for them is if they all commit suicide. I cant believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid. We are honoring the fact that they sinned and killed thereselves because of their sin. REALLY PEOPLE."

Initially, six people "liked" McCance's message. He also received supportive comments, though some challenged his statement. A commenter wrote, "Because hatred is always right." That led McCance to write, "No because being a fag doesn't give you the right to ruin the rest of our lives. If you get easily offended by being called a fag then dont tell anyone you are a fag. Keep that shit to yourself. I dont care how people decide to live their lives. They dont bother me if they keep it to thereselves. It pisses me off though that we make a special purple fag day for them. I like that fags cant procreate. I also enjoy the fact that they often give each other aids and die. If you arent against it, you might as well be for it."

McCance was again challenged on his statements — and his Christianity. Wrote one commenter: "YOU NEED TO STOP AND THINK FOR A SEC GREAT YOU BIG CHRISTIAN MAN ! SO KEEP ALL OF YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOUR SELF YOU DONT WANT PPL TALKIN ABOUT YOUR FAMILY SO DONT TALK BOUT OTHERS."

McCance responded with, "I would disown my kids they were gay. They will not be welcome at my home or in my vicinity. I will absolutely run them off. Of course my kids will know better. My kids will have solid christian beliefs. See it infects everyone."

It's not clear if McCance has taken down the thread, since his Facebook page is private — the messages were made available to The Advocate via a forwarded screen capture. The superintendent of the Midland school district was unavailable and a phone call to the principal of the Midland High School was not returned. There was no response to e-mails to the superintendent and to the secretary of the Midland school board.

"Clint McCance has put a face on the hate that devastates our young people," says Human Rights Campaign president Joe Solmonese. "McCance shouldn't be allowed near children, let alone managing their education. We call for his immediate resignation from the school board."

Well, he went a bit far. But wearing purple to honor disfunction is a bit much too.

And at least you can tell that even he has succumbed to egalitarian programming in that he consistently uses the term "gay" instead of the more direct and accurate term "homosexual." That's right in line with a conscious effort to control the language surrounding the issue.

Same old ignorant crap.

John,

What are the odds that one of his kids will be as gay as he is?

Hey Jon,

Sounds like the dude is a bit insensitive, but I don't see where he says he "wants gays dead". Sure, he doesn't want to support the gay agenda...and he obviously doesn't mind when gays die. But that is not the same as saying he wants gays dead.

Heck, I get a kick out of when mafia members, drug dealers, JMU fans, and whack job extemists kill each other, but I don't go around every day wanting those people dead.






BTW, do you have any Face Book posts of gay people that don't like straight people?

I preface this with: His statement is stupid, but this is my take on what he meant.

He doesn't want gays dead. He's saying the only way he'd honor them is if they were dead. He doesn't want to support homosexuals while they're alive because he's believes it's sin.

He couldn't have used worse words to say it, but it's not like he's saying he wants every "fag" in the world to put a .45 to their head and give him a good reason to wear purple. He's just saying the only way he'd pay respects to the homosexual community is the same way he'd give respects to anyone else, when they're in a casket.

Is he an idiot? Yes. He's the reason that there should be either 1. an IQ test to use the internet or 2. an option to have someone who isn't drunk/stupid/ignorant look at and censor the things you put on Twitter/Facebook when you're someone who's elevated in the court of public opinion.

I could be wrong. It's happened before. Just my take on this.

And I think the kids being bullied and killing themselves is incredibly sad. I'd support any way possible to get these kids in schools the help they need to overcome bullying. But buying a ribbon ain't gonna do shit. Having never been bullied I have no idea what it's like or how to fix it, but I hope there's a solution out there.

I don't know why people hate the pillow biters. I love all those little queer fvckers.

The best friend in the world a straight guy can have is a little faggy guy to help out with fashion decisions, etc.

Why not just NOT wear purple?

Easy for YOU to say...

I thought purple was for battered women, or was that black and blue?

It should just be a picture of a sammich, but whatever...

So, I'm still waiting to see where he said he wants gays dead.

What he said.

Just typical UNH. He was just throwing shit against the wall again and making shit up hoping something would stick. I doubt he will post again on this thread being the pussy he is. Probably coloring his map of how he will sneak into his next football game.

well, they did sin and kill thereselves

"I also like the fact that they give each other AIDS and die. If you aren't against it you might as well be for it."

Kinda seems like he wants gays dead to me.

What he said.

You're right he never says that, he merely says "I also enjoy the fact that they often give each other aids and die."

Big difference.

There is.

Has he ever said that he "wants gays to die"...publicly?

At the hands of their Conk boyfriends and fathers and husbands.

You're right, he doesn't want them to die, he just enjoys it when they die of aids.
