Pastor and Republican hopeful Mark Burns has claimed that parents and teachers who talk about LGBTQ+ topics with children pose a “national security threat”.
Burns in running in South Carolina’s 4th District Republican primary on Tuesday (14 June) against three other candidates.
In an appearance on The Stew Peters Show last week, Burns said that he would vote to encourage the persecution of LGBTQ+ ‘indoctrinators’ if he is successful.
“The LGBT transgender grooming [of] our children’s minds is a national security threat because it is ultimately designed to destabilise the republic we call the United States of America,” Burns said, according to Newsweek.
