Media Seems to Sympathize with the So-Called "Woman" Being Executed ...
... rather than the actual woman he raped and murdered
“(A fellow) inmate described McLaughlin as a painfully shy person who came out of her shell after deciding to transition.
“‘She always had a smile and a dad joke,’ Hicklin said. ‘If you ever talked to her, it was always with the dad jokes.’”
Can you imagine the media talking about any other convicted rapist and murderer this way?
Amber McLaughlin was put to death by the state of Missouri this week for the rape and murder of former girlfriend Beverly Guenther.
The two had been dating when Amber McLaughlin, a biological man, had been living as Scott McLaughlin.
Scott McLaughlin didn’t take well to being dumped.
He repeatedly stalked Guenther who, as a result, had to be regularly escorted from her workplace to her car by police.
McLaughlin eventually violated a restraining order to rape and then repeatedly stab his former girlfriend with a steak knife before dumping her body near the Mississippi River.
McLaughlin was convicted of first degree murder. Oh, and in prison he transitioned into a female.
The problem for the media is that McLaughlin’s behaviour was not terribly lady like. When women are sad they binge eat and change their hair.
Stalking, breaking restraining orders, raping and stabbing people are the sorts of things jilted men do.
All of which may explain why The Guardian, when reporting news of McLaughlin’s execution, emphasised McLaughlin’s shy personality, lovely smile, and talent for telling jokes.
It may also explain why The Guardian neglected to mention the rapey part.
Oh, and it might also explain why The Guardian forgot to tell readers that McLaughlin was incarcerated in 1992 for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old.
You wouldn’t want to be relying on The Guardian for actual news.
But if you’re interested in knowing that McLaughlin was the first openly transgendered person to be executed in the US, well then The Guardian doesn’t let you down.
“A Missouri inmate has been put to death for a 2003 killing, becoming what is believed to be the first transgender woman executed in the US.”
You could be forgiven for thinking that McLaughlin was “executed” for being “the first transgender woman” rather than “put to death for a killing”.
“There is no known case of an openly transgender person being executed in the US before, according to the anti-execution Death Penalty Information Center.”
What has being “openly” trans got to do with anything? McLaughlin wasn’t executed because he is trans, as if he is the one being persecuted.
But the trans washing continued …
“McLaughlin was a painfully shy person who came out of her shell after deciding to transition … always having a smile and a joke.”
I’m not sure how being painfully shy or having a cute smile has anything to do with the stalking, the raping and the stabbing.
What must Beverly Guenther’s grieving family think when they read media reports?
Trans Ideology (some might say theology) has so captured the mass media that they almost seem to sympathize with the so-called "woman" being executed rather than the actual woman he raped and murdered.
When you ignore God's plans and design for your life you probably ignore His Commandments too, like murder and rape.
The LGBT community are very much Atheistic or Satan worshipers.
They may tell us that they are just like us and many claim to be Christians, but you can tell the tree by the fruit it produces.
Grooming, rape, murder, hate, bad language, incapable of obeying God's command to multiply and fill the earth, etc. are not what you would find in biblical teaching.
Life for life. (Exodus 22: 23)
Death for rape.
But if in the field the man finds the girl who is engaged, and the man forces her and lies with her, then only the man who lies with her shall die. But you shall do nothing to the girl; there is no sin in the girl worthy of death, for just as a man rises against his neighbor and murders him, so is this case. When he found her in the field, the engaged girl cried out, but there was no one to save her. (Deuteronomy 22: 25-27)
A woman shall not wear man’s clothing, nor shall a man put on a woman’s clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God. (Deuteronomy 22: 5)
If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltiness is upon them. (Leviticus 20: 13)
Great writing James. Spot on!
