The year 2022 marks 45 years since singer and former beauty queen, Anita Bryant, declared homers to be a threat to children. Where she lived at the time Dade County, Florida, had ignored this threat and passed a "gay rights" ordinance. Up until Anita stepped forward to identify this menace, people were simply afraid to speak the truth.

And now these many years later, what do we see? We see teens glued to their phones looking at who knows what. Young women dress like street walkers. Young people claiming the gender a doctor or parent wrote on their birth certificates is partly or entirely wrong.

Anita Bryant warned us that giving homers rights equal to Christians would bring all of this into being. And here it is. She was wise beyond her years and today we honor her.

I am afraid there is still animosity toward this icon of straight rights. I saw a poster in the Stonewall Inn depicting Miss Anita as a cruel witch and holding a Tropicana bottle filled with blood. I openly wept. I was not lucky enough to be born at a time when Christian soldierettes like Bryant fought for America, but I will order all her music albums and listen to her lovely voice as I recall her struggles. Does anyone know if she was a Baptist?

Amen. It was a real blow when God recalled Sister Anita onto his bosom. But the decline started earlier, in the 1950s. Before then, negroes knew and minded their place in society. Then negroes got "rights" to mingle with good, Christian white folk. That led to interracial "marriage," which led to gay "marriage," and the fabric of decency in our country has been unravelling ever since.

We need to get Donald Trump back in the White House to put a stop to gay "rights" and negro "rights" so he (and we) can make America great again.

Anita is only 83 and quite vigorous it is reported. I think with the nation-wide anger over homer rights she could restart her career. She finished with the whole bankruptcy thing back when she didn't pay taxes and funded a concert that failed. I'd say why not book some venues and get back on the road again.

The only bad news is her son reports she has lost some of here enthusiasm for bashing homers and is sort of "live and let live." We can't have that from the nation's leading Christian entertainer. Hopefully her son is wrong about that.

All Anita was trying to do was promote healthy Florida orange juice - and Florida of all things. The Disney company - corrupting our youth into rodent furries by selling those mouse ears from the "mouseketeers", and who knows what depraved things those seven dwarves were up to with Snow White.

I can't think of anything or anyone more cruel than Anita Bryant's granddaughter, Sarah Green. Sarah Green is marrying a woman!

Sarah should have considered how her grandmother would feel about a gay wedding in her offspring. Even if she had the hots for a woman Sarah should have married a man for the sake of her grandmother. Anita Bryant's career was damaged beyond recovery because she condemned homers. No Grandparent should have to suffer something like this.

Hallelujah!! I could have sworn that the divine Mrs. Bryant had passed on to spend eternity serving her husband in heaven! Are we sure this wasn't a case of resurrection? We should invite her to sing at our big end-of-summer gun show and tent revival.

Speaking of serving her husband in Heaven, which of Mrs. Bryant's two husbands was her real husband? The one she divorced or the one she remarried? We should have Pastor Zeke talk to her about the evils of divorce if she does accept our invitation. It really burns my britches when divorced people demand "equal" rights with the rest of us.

It's been reported her first husband hated homers with a real passion and that Anita was "pushed" to do the statements against homer teachers by him. I don't know about the current husband. Certainly, she should be rewarded an eternity with the first, especially if he ruled their household and her entertainment career with an iron fist.

Well, one thing is most certain: Miss Bryant is an incredibly gracious lady. To politely explain the curse of homersexualism, and then to receive a pie in the face; well, that would anger most people and make them resentful.

But, it was not so when it happened at Miss Bryant's press conference. She insisted that the promiscuous pervert not be arrested; and then, she prayed that he would be delivered from his accursed, demonic lifestyle. If that doesn't show the Grace of the , then I'm afraid that I don't know what does!

On the other hand, across centuries, pies to the face, an egg thrown, what are these but acknowledgements His message is getting through? “How gracious her response,” I thought.

The beasts of the people were tolerably quiet till I had nearly finished my sermon. .They then lifted up their voices, especially one, called a gentleman, who had filled his pocket with rotten eggs: but, a young man coming unawares, clapped his hands on each side and mashed them all at once.. In an instant he was perfume all over, though it was not so sweet as balsam.

A gentle quip, much as Wesley had made although on that occasion he was not pelted, for a harmless if impolite expression of disagreement. There are degrees, of course. A pie-in-the-face is less damaging than an egging (raw) with boiled eggs being a little more assaultive. Rotten eggs are an interesting case: less substantial than the boiled but more enduring. In all cases, though, a halberd to the cranium is unacceptable as an alternative to pies, or eggs of any consistency, and should never be substituted for a frank and forthright exchange of ideas.

So far as we know, Anita has not agreed to attend her granddaughter's lesbo wedding. I wonder if she still has the energy to stand up during the service and deliver a powerful testimony against the sin of homerism. It would be good for the granddaughter and her "wife" hear the truth from one of the most famous anti-homer truth tellers in the world.
