You WILL Be Silenced!

The militants seeking to destroy Lyle Shelton are coming after all of us.

Written by Bill Muehlenberg | Thursday, December 31, 2020

Of course everything that I have warned about has been happening – and then some. I have documented countless cases of those who refused to bow the knee at the altar of the sexual militants paying a heavy price, with legal actions of all sorts taking place. How many people have now lost their jobs, been heavily fined, or even thrown into prison for daring to stand true to their convictions and not cower before the radicals? Sadly, far too many of these folks I happen to know personally. This is not make-believe – this is very real indeed.

 

One hates to do it, and one hates to sound like a broken record, but really, I told you so! Indeed, a number of us tried to tell you. Many of us warned and sounded the alarm and pleaded and did all we could to wake folks up before it was too late.

I refer of course to the unrelenting homosexual juggernaut which seeks to crush everything in its path. I and others warned that granting special rights to homosexuals, including recklessly redefining marriage, would be the slippery slope to a tyrannical future in which freedom of speech, freedom of religion, and freedom of conscience would all be under threat.

It would open a Pandora’s Box that would likely never be shut. I certainly made these warnings dozens, if not hundreds of times over the past few decades. I said everything would change if we went down that path. Nothing would stay the same, and conservatives and Christians would especially be in the crosshairs.

Of course everything that I have warned about has been happening – and then some. I have documented countless cases of those who refused to bow the knee at the altar of the sexual militants paying a heavy price, with legal actions of all sorts taking place.

How many people have now lost their jobs, been heavily fined, or even thrown into prison for daring to stand true to their convictions and not cower before the radicals? Sadly, far too many of these folks I happen to know personally. This is not make-believe – this is very real indeed.

Consider just one more shocking example of this. In today’s press (eg. The Herald Sun, Courier Mail, etc) there is a story of how two drag queens are each suing former ACL head Lyle Shelton for $20,000 and demanding a public apology. His crime? Daring to suggest that their ‘performance’ in a Queensland public library was not appropriate for little children.

Of course this story is not new. Those in the know have been following this for some time now. Consider this piece from August from a homosexual site. It begins:

Two drag performers have taken an Australian Conservatives political activist to the Queensland Human Rights Commission under the Anti-Discrimination Act over a blog he wrote about why “drag queens are not for kids.” Lyle Shelton, formerly head of the Australian Christian Lobby, appeared before the Queensland Human Rights Commission (QHRC)  on Thursday for the compulsory conciliation proceedings.

According to the QHRC, “conciliation is a private and informal opportunity for all parties to discuss what occurred, listen to each other’s views and come to an agreement about how the complaint can be resolved.” The proceedings look for a way to resolve the issue through conciliation in the hopes of avoiding time and money spent pursuing the case before a tribunal.

The ways one could resolve a complaint, the QHRC said, are to apologise, change the organisation’s policies, organise training in the workplace or pay compensation for the hurt feelings. In this case, the Thursday hearing did not lead to a conciliation.

“The complaint did not resolve and I now have an anxious wait to see if I am to be taken to the Queensland Civil And Administrative Tribunal (QCAT) for the matter to be heard before a judge,” Shelton posted on his website. Shelton calls himself a “long-time campaigner against gender queer ideology” and “leader of the campaign to preserve the definition of marriage during the 2017 same-sex marriage plebiscite.”
