The immediate resignation of Rep. Sally Kern from Oklahoma's state office.

Target:
10,000

In recently reported news, Oklahoma Representative Sally Kern spoke out against homosexuals, claiming that they are "worse than terrorists" and accusing homosexuals of engaging in indoctrinating behaviors that could destroy the nation. She is currently a representative in Oklahoma for the following services. This petition and the people of the United States of America are asking for the immediate resignation of Rep. Sally Kern. These statements that Rep. Kern have made induce hate and are against the ethics of the exact office that she currently holds. The people of the United States of America will no longer tolerate this form of discrimination from an elected public official who is expected to look out for the interests of all people in their district. Rep. Kerns comments about terrorists and implying minimization of Sept. 11th victims are also an unacceptable behavior and action that the public (we the people) expect out of a trusted public official.
Rep. Sally Kern; We the people demand your immediate resignation from office, as you do not represent all of the people in your district, as you have shown through your discriminatory comments.
Below are the important positions that you hold as a representative of the honorable state of Oklahoma. Your recent comments show clearly the lack of respect and ethical behavior you have towards the people of not only Oklahoma, but also to the people of the United States , as well. These recent statements of yours are not honorable as your current title would suggest.
We the undersigned citizens of the United States of america Demand your immediate resignation from your currently held office.

I think she should leave her office, because our contitution gives us the right to be who we choose. I also have friends who are the other gender. And if it wasn't for them when my mother passed away. I wouldn't be here today. So leave the other gender alone.

For your actions there is no excuse. I think, as well as many other homosexual americans that you need to relinguish your title and step down from serving the public. To have you doing any type of public service would be a discrace to this nation.

Homosexuality may be personally offensive or distasteful, or it may not be understood, however, a representative of the people is obligated to represent ALL of the people fairly - regardless of their personal opinions. I am confident that like all natural phenomena that was previously ascribed to witchery, demonic activity, to satan, or God, that is now understood to be caused by natural processes, homosexuality will be found to be caused by genetics or some other natural event. Representative Kern has proven that she makes decisions based on myth or folklore, on "spirits" - in the same way as was done by the uneducated, before the age of enlightenment. We need forward thinking representatives who use science to make decisions not myth or emotion.

Our elected officials represent us as Americans, and this woman is unfit to represent represent American refuse. I have a higher esteem for my country than to advance people like Sally Kern as the face of any part of our nation.

Representative Kern does not deserve to represent the people of Oklahoma. What she said is highly offensive, not just to people concerned about gay rights, but also for her comment about Islam in general being a threat to this country. I am atheist, but I think comments directed at a religion in general because of the actions of a few are abhorrent. It would be like Iran's president saying the number one threat to Iran is Christianity.

Hate behavior has a consistent pattern. It would be interesting to do a search on Sally Kerns voting history on any issue regarding equality for Black Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Cuban Americans. I'd be willing to bet real money on what you would find.

This is the land of the free. ALL men are created equal. You are also not acting very Christian. I am sure you are familiar with Romans 2:1 May the Lord take pitty on you and guide you out of this dark time.

I don't know where you got your facts Sally it looks like you are singing the same tune as Hitler. You should resign and join the kkk, but I don't think they let women in the top ranks. They only tolerate evil, pleasentville, brain washed spouse that kiss their ass and will give them sex when they demand it. For those women stuck in those relationships, I am sorry and surely hope you get help. There are many others spouses that have the same values and beliefs as their husbands and Sally. You are right about a cancer and you are one that needs to be stopped NOW! We do not need more biggots and homophobic people in office in this country. You are giving people who are already full of hate justification and power. Resign and then you can have free speech. You will face GOD and so will the rest of us. It is not your job to judge people. God speaks of love and kindness.By the way are you in the kkk?

Sally Kern's comments are unneccesarry and unnacceptable for someone in her position. She should be held accountable for her speech just as any other public offical is. She has no business being in office, but rather behind a pulpit of a right winged evangelical church. Her comments are not only un-american, but unconstitutional in nature; her words threaten the living breathing words, of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Such ignorant and hate filled words are psychologically proven to incite violence, surely this will not sustain the gurantees made by the constitution. I am a registered voter, and will make my opinions heard in elections. People like this need to be held accountable. Please remove her from office ASAP. She not only threatens the lives of homosexual individuals but also that of Muslims. Also her actions in her private life, threaten the institution of family; by disowning her gay son, she has set a highly negative example for society. Just as other's have been held accountable for sex scandals, so should she for her denouncing of her own flesh and blood. Shame on her; and if she is not removed from office (or resigns), then I and surely others will lose respect for the office she holds. The title will lose its meaning and purpose through the loss of respect. Protect Americans as well as the title, dignity, and authority that her office carries. Remove Miss Kern at once, and denounce her.

As I read your comments, all I could think of was how you must hurt inside to be capable of spitting out so much HATE, yet you CLAIM to be a Christian. Tell me... how can someone as filled with HATE as you, be a Christian??? Please resign you position not only for the sake of the people, but also for your family... How embarrassed they must be.

How does it feel to be "OUT" Ms. Kern? I hope that this will be a life altering event for you, and one that will cause you to examine your relationship with your son. Welcome to the school of unconditional love, the doctrine of true Christianity.

Ms. Kern, you are entitled your personal moral opinions as is any other citizen of this great nation. You, however, are more than a citizen. You are a servant of the public, and it is your sworn duty to advocate for all the peoples you represent with their myriad views. Your overtly hateful, cruel comments are not Christ-like, a disgrace to your office, and an embarrassment to your Party. It's people like you that taint the reputation of modern Aemrican Christians and Republicans. May God have mercy on your soul.

Sally, As the LGBT community moves forward in finding equality, our PRIDE events throughout the the world will continue to grow in celebrating our diversity and acceptance from individuals like yourself. One day my hope is that you will find that understanding, because we are not going anywhere my dear. We're here and moving forward passionately and effectively for Equality.
