Megachurch Pastor Jack Hibbs Launches Nationwide Campaign to Out LGBTQ Students

[Initech]

California Republicans recently introduced a bill that would require school districts to notify parents within three days of learning that a student is “identifying at school as a gender that does not align with the child’s sex on their birth certificate, other official records, or sex assigned at birth.” LGBTQ activists say that Assembly Bill 1314 would put transgender students at risk, but radical right-wing California pastor Jack Hibbs hopes to spread the requirement to school districts around the nation.

Hibbs—who just last month declared that he was “embarrassed” that he and other pastors are not being attacked for standing against “LBGTQ transgender lunacy” while “kids are being raped by the public school system”—posted an “urgent call to action” on social media Monday in which he announced that he’s launching a campaign to push back against the “demonic and dark satanic powers” that are supposedly “sexualizing” and “mentally abusing” public school students.

“We are launching right now a campaign to equip and mobilize every citizen to petition—every parent, every grandparent—to petition their local school board, no matter where they live … and demand that your school board adopt the language of AB-1314,” Hibbs said. “We are going to be instructing you shortly on how to do this in your town, requiring your school board to adopt AB-1314 verbiage. … I want parents to know that the school has to notify the parents before they do anything with your child that’s secretive regarding their health, their sexual questioning, whatever. Parents are to be notified.”

He went on to warn that the belief that this nation is a “democracy” is dangerous.

“A democracy steals your kids, kidnaps them, so to speak, at school and takes control,” he continued. “A constitutional republic says, ‘Wait a minute, we have a say.’ Here’s what we’re asking you guys to do: Get your pastors on board, your city council members on board, get your mayor on board, get the word out because we’re coming with this, and it’s going to be great.”

Fuck this MAGA conspiracy theorist genocidal scumbag and everyone like him. Also fuck the Chino Hills school board for enacting this policy. I hope they rot in the hottest of hells.

1. Don't stop at students.

Out pastors, businessmen, politicians too. They'd be surprised the length of that list.

[Initech]

3. I say we fight back by outing people who were at January 6th.

I still don't think we've even begun to scratch the surface of who was there.

[wnylib]

4. Especially out the ones who sexually abuse children, have extramarital affairs,

and support hate groups like White supremacists, neo Nazis, insurrectionists, etc.

[Initech]

9. It's time to classify Calvary Chapel as a hate group.

Especially if they employ people like this.

[rurallib]

16. Boy are you ever right there

I could've used a little warning about 60 years back.

[Model35mech]

2. R there prosecutors that will call this stalking and harassment?

There may not be laws against "religious speak" but there are laws against stalking and harrassment.

[Aristus]

5. Another chuzzlewit who doesn't seem to understand that we are a democratic republic.

God, I fucking hate these assholes...

[peasant one]

6. every child in school should identify with a gender that doesn't align with birth certificate

They could all stand up for social justice at an early age.

7. Time for someone to do a deep dive on Pastor Hibbs.

Bound to be something there.

[Initech]

13. He seems like the kind of guy who has a hard drive or two of incriminating evidence...

Stashed in his house somewhere.

[housecat]

14. It's all just projection -- like tfg and his cult

[Duncan Grant]

8. Let's hear it for lgbtq demonic power!

Without it, you’d be forced to give power to sanctimonious pricks like Jack Hibbs.

[DBoon]

10. Thinks democracy is causing moral corruption of yuoth?

Religions like his have a history of supporting brutal anti-democratic regimes.

[housecat]

15. and perverts

[Brainfodder]

11. Worst kind of control freak?

One that should know/do better.

Quit having people give up sex for the lord in the first place, ignorant of biology much?

[jmowreader]

12. You want to be "attacked"? Can do easy, GI...

"In 26 USC 501, subsection C, paragraph 3, strike the word 'religious.'"

[chiffondior]

17. while "kids are being raped by the public school system"

Hibbs—who just last month declared that he was “embarrassed” that he and other pastors are not being attacked for standing against “LBGTQ transgender lunacy” while “kids are being raped by the public school system”

You know where kids are ACTUALLY being raped? At the hands of clergy you piece of garbage.

[BlueIdaho]

18. Jesus wept.

How Christian of him.

[EndlessWire]

25. I agree.

Acting and sounding more like a hate filled, RW Trumper than a community leader with Christian values...at least most of those values, which in the end are interpreted by other humans, just not like this.

Most churches are very exclusive, and they make the mistake of thinking that they have some ordained right to make the rules for all of the rest of us. Well, they don't. That is why we are supposed to have separation of church and state. If parents want some oppressive church cult to brainwash their kids, they'd send their kids to those schools.

Keep the churches out of the public school systems.

Are they there trying for free meals for kids who don't get enough to eat? Are they providing artistic programs, science programs, free clothing (coats and shoes), free school products, etc. etc. etc.? NO, they are there sniffing around in the drawers of innocent kiddos who have enough to do just being kids.

The overtones of sexual plunder just reek with these idiots who can't seem to stop thinking about personal issues between kids and parents, and ultimately just the kids' personal business. Kind of tough explaining that to Jesus. Hypocrites, all.

[forgotmylogin]

19. Are they going to paint a target on their foreheads also?

Scarlet letter? Pink star?

The good version of this would be a campaign for people to "come out" with the intention of welcoming them and accepting them, but it sounds like they're basically setting up a witch-hunt campaign of othering.

[Gore1FL]

20. They are killing Christianity in America, so there are at least positive side-effects. nt

[Quanto Magnus]

21. And yet another horrid religious person

that makes me glad to be away from religion...

Sounds like he wants to dox children.

[Sky Jewels]

22. Religion strikes again.

It’s all poison for the mind.

[Ford_Prefect]

23. You know that remark..."He doth protest too much"? I wonder just how it might apply to Mr. Hibbs.

[GenThePerservering]

24. He's confusing democracy

and fascist authoritarianism. What a chud.

[Dirty Socialist]

26. I bet my bottom dollar

I bet this faschist doesn’t really believe in Jesus:

[vercetti2021]

27. Check this guys harddrive

100% chance he's got some highly illegal videos and photos on it
