NYC mayor pushes Christian 'Death to Gays' politico for city post [View all]
Not long ago, the newly elected Democratic mayor proposed making Fernando Cabrera, a fellow Democrat and former council member from the Bronx, head of the 'Mayors Office of Community Mental Health'.
LGBTQ activists shouted bloody murder. Cabrera is on the record promoting the false notion that homosexuality is a mental illness. How could he possibly serve as a leader for NYCs mental health communities?
Shortly after Uganda lawmakers passed a life in prison law for homosexuality, and
debated restoring the death penalty (for gays), the Democratic politician and Christian pastor from the Bronx, Fernando Cabrera, traveled there and praised them for fighting homosexuality, claiming all government officials must first be servants of the Christian God.
Cabrera made clear he supports harsh criminal penalties for gay people.
Cabrera made clear he opposes church/state separation.
Cabrera made clear religious diversity is not what his God wants.
Cabrera endorsed dangerously ignorant claims about HIV
After several days of withering criticism, Adams withdrew the proposal. But he wasnt done. He tapped Cabrera to join a new 'Office of Faith-Based and Community Partnership' as a a conduit between city government, the faith-based community throughout New York City and nonprofit organization[s].
