This is truly disgusting<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Two radio jocks on KRXQ, a Sacramento, CA, station engaged in a remarkable dialogue about transgender people, in which they advocated violence against transgender children<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Sample quotes:<\/p>\n

“If my son, God forbid, if my son put on a pair of high heels, I would probably hit him with one of my shoes. I would throw a shoe at him. Because you know what? Boys don’t wear high heels. And in my house, they definitely don’t wear high heels.”<\/p>\n

“You know, my favorite part about hearing these stories about the kids in high school, who the entire high school caters around, lets the boy wear the dress. I look forward to when they go out into society and society beats them down. And they end up in therapy.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We don’t have a lot of local media in California, and increasingly, a substantial segment of the population gets their ideas from talk radio outlets like this.  And here’s what they’re hearing.<\/p>\n

If Rob, Arnie, & Dawn in the Morning<\/em> on KRXQ have one advertiser<\/a> left within a week, something’s wrong.  GLAAD<\/A> has an action item for this.  According to the comments in this Huffington Post<\/a> piece, Chipotle and Snapple have already dropped their ad support for the show.  Contact the station’s general manager here:<\/p>\n
