Linda Harvey, founder of Columbus, Ohio-based anti-gay Mission America, has now targeted a National Education Association affiliate for providing college scholarships for LGBT high school students.
Harvey, who in April claimed that “demonic manipulation” was making kids gay as she railed against the National Day of Silence, took to the airwaves to imply that an NEA affiliate teachers union was offering “financial incentives” for students “to be actively engaged in both the political goals of homosexuals as well as the risky behavior.”
Harvey combined anti-gay rhetoric with her stringent opposition to the rights of workers and organized labor:
The group’s website says they raise money for teen scholarships given to those kids who consider themselves homosexual.
The past few years the scholarship winners have not simply been young people persuaded to be in this deviant lifestyle, but are students who have unfortunately bought the party line and become involved in activism projects like homosexual clubs and the pro-homosexual Day of Silence in their schools.
And so now kids are given financial incentives to be actively engaged in both the political goals of homosexuals as well as the risky behavior.
This is appalling. In these tough economic times many kids will be struggling to get money together for college and here we have a really sleazy connection for them to make. It’s just one more outrageous thing going on with our teachers’ unions.
Harvey’s other recent gems include:
- New York marriage equality will lead to “a perpetual pansexual pagan party.”
- “I would not think of a homosexual person as a good employment risk, I just wouldn’t.”
- The “It Gets Better Project” is “wrong,” “evil” and “dark,” and it’s creator Dan Savage “a radical and vicious, vicious, vulgar, profane, anti-Christian.”
You can listen to Harvey spreading her hate daily, via her radio show on WRFD in Columbus.

And not being discriminated against at every walk of life and having to face unfair practices in employment, housing, marriage rights, taxes, etc. is, therefore, an incentive to be straight. Right?
I just don’t understand these people anymore. I think we need to just tell them that their own left arms are gay and wait until they gnaw them off in a fit of paranoid rage. Then we hospitalize them for having finally proven themselves incompetent and insane in a way no one can argue against.
There is nothing polite that I can say about this woman or the trash she said, so I’m gonna take a moment of silence for her insanity. Damn shame.
From now on, if I ever want to insult somebody with the most abject qualificative, I’ll tell them “you’re so gawddamn Linda Harvey!”
People who think that scholarships are to reel people into a “group”, are people who normally are jealous by the fact that they will never be able to get a scholarship of their own!
Yup, just like scholarships encourage people to be black.
god dammit harvey shut the fuckup you shitface stuckup little cunt
How do people come up with this stuff, seriously? Do we have to curse people out on here? It is just bringing us down to their level…..
Why doesn’t someone assassinate all these a-holes?
I still love the perpetual pansexual pagan party.
She just keeps getting brighter and brighter!!!!
Look at that Maggie has a friend!
she obviously is unhappy with herself…just a dumb bitch without a life…just ignore her and let her go away.
Linda Harvey is just plain dumb and ignorant.
Yeah, being gay is demonizing the youth and rest of gay’s.
DOUCHE CANOE!
Vile
I can’t help but laugh. You can’t make this shit up.
I don’t think it’s fair to offer scholarships only for certain groups like this any more than it would be okay to give scholarships only to blacks or women or white, middle-class men. Equality is good, but reverse-discrimination is NOT the path we should take to get there.
let me guess… she’s in it for the money…
I can’t look at her face anymore, it hurts my eyeballs :(
What horseshit.
What horseshit.
Total IDIOT.
0_o what?
Yeah…my kid has so much incentive at her school to be gay…or different in any way. What is this woman smoking???
What a BITCH!
Lol cuz i guess money can make anyone gay. Stupid bitch.
Well, duh Joseph, you never heard of “gay for pay”? At least this way they won’t have to have sex! :-P
All straight women’s are bitch
What a jerk….but her statements were laughable enough to make me LMAO xD
That is a load of horse crap, That is like saying scolerships for the poor to go to college makes them want to be poor. She needs to get a grip and a life and shut her pie hole.
My inpression of people like this .. these days means she is struggling with her own sexuality… she protests too loud… gotta be something that she is fighting… of course that is not an excuse to be a bigotted ass hole!
Fuck this hating bitch and all her right-wing christian cohorts.
She’s so Linda Harvey!
So, being gay, I’d like my retroactive payment please. What? There isn’t any? What Linda Harvey says isn’t true?
Right, just like how scholarships for black kids encourage them to be black. And scholarships for the disabled encourage them to be cripples. Herp derp.
Alternatively:
“People I don’t feel comfortable with don’t deserve to have rich, fulfilling lives like NORMAL people (i.e. me, my friends).” -Linda Harvey
She’s just angry because she was mistaken for a dog ugly man.
Nut job!
Poor thing must not be getting anwhere with her usual persuits in hate. She must swallow tuns of antacids. Even in the pic she looks in terrible pain. Someone or something should put her out of our misery.
To Ansh Soni: Not all straight women are bitches. I’m straight and i’d like to punch this one in the face.
This woman is seriously deranged. There is no “incentive” there is a feeling of safety for the first time for gay youth to feel safe to come out and be themselves. I was raised in a household where folks were never judged on their race, creed, color, religion or sexual orientation just by their actions. More kids should be raised like that. There is just too much hate in this very messed up world and most of the hate is UNFOUNDED or based on a book WRITTEN BY MAN, NOT GOD and if your going to quote Leviticus then live fully by his teachings, you can’t just pick and choose what you want to believe. That means no more shaving, no tattoos, no mixing meats, stone your children if they get out of line or flirt with the opposite sex.. shall I go on?? Outdated info you say? Then so is the WRONGFULLY sited lines about One man shall not lay with another… it’s original meaning was a Christian Man (or Woman) shall not lay with a Jewish Man (or Woman). It was about religion not sexually orientation so that ‘so and so’ needs to do a little more research before condemning some of Gods children. I was born gay and quite frankly I wouldn’t have it any other way! Bitch can go to hell!
So this lady is paing for guy and girl to be gay? well that is odd most pay for them not to be. did I go into topsy tervy land? or is this saying that she is paying gay students and that people are say NO! don’t pay them queers to be queers?
Linda Harvey, you are super gay. and NOT in the good way. I am disappointed with this meanness. mean people suck. period.
