Benita Pedersen Quotes:

• It is our right as a democratic society to have the freedom to express our own opinions.

  
  

• In a free and democratic society, problems are solved through open communication and public debate, not by making unjustified accusations. 

  
  

• Accusations of hatred are an attempt to shut down the conversation and to prevent the views of those who don't agree from being shared.

  
  

• Those who attempt to shut down the conversation do not want to live in a free and democratic society; they want to live in a controlled society.

  
  

• My flyer did not suggest violence; my flyer merely advocated for political action.

  
  

• A difference of opinion does not equal hate. 

  
  

• I stand up for healthy boundaries, not hatred. 

  
  

• I stand for protecting children and I stand for freedom of expression. 

  
  

• Understanding biology is not bigotry.

  
  

• Hate speech is defined as extreme detestation of a specific group. I don't hate individuals who identify as transgender; I feel for them. I have transgender friends and I am familiar with their difficult journeys. My transgender friends support the words I shared in the flyer because I shared the truth. 

  
  

• Individuals who introduce children to the transgender pathway are potentially harming children. A rainbow crosswalk is one way of introducing children to the transgender pathway.

  
  

• Mature content is not for kids.

  
  

• Protecting children isn't hate.
