Treatment of Steve Stanton

Steve Stanton describes the commpassionate conservatism he has been treated to.

When asked if anyone has had the courage to confront him directly, Stanton responded, "They have thrown eggs on my car. Someone sent me a nasty porno card. The biggest thing was going to a public meeting to hear so many who professed to have a close relation with God be so vicious in their loathing-particularly, the spewing out of hate [from] preachers."

Stanton explain who his behind his firing.

"I never anticipated that I would be fired. In the same sense I understand that the city commissioners are under extreme pressure. The city has almost been held under capture by the most outrageous, meanest e-mails generated primarily by three different churches. When you hear from that many people, whatever it is, you want to get rid of it. The difficult thing is I love my organization. I love my city. I can't believe I'm being fired. I've worked for a lot of cities. Largo is the dream job."

In the New Testament, Jesus said, "He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone at her." The Christianists are looking for the biggest stone to smite Stanton with. They use the name of Christ has an excuse to practice their bigotry. Not to help those that are needing assistance. Last time I checked America had drug abusers, homeless and victims of domestic violence.
