Arkansas School Board Member: Gay Students Should ‘Get AIDS and Die’

Arkansas school board member Clint McCance is a typical representative of the modern right wing, if slightly more outspoken than most: Arkansas School Board Member Says Gay Students Should ‘Get AIDS and Die’.

McCance took to his Facebook page last week, to blast what became known as Spirit Day, a day where all around the country, people wore the color purple to remember those LGBT students who were victims of bullying or suicide. For McCance, this was nothing more than a day of honoring “sin.”

“Seriously they want me to wear purple because five queers committed suicide. The only way I’m wearin’ it for them is if they all commit suicide,” McCance said, in one of the most ugly outbursts in recent memory. “I can’t believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid. We are honoring the fact that they sinned and killed themselves because of their sin.”
