A Republican legislator said that he would drown his own kids is if they turned out to be gay.
West Virginia delegate Eric Porterfield appeared on WVVA, an NBC affiliate, to talk about homophobic comments he made last week, where he said that LGBTQ people are “a modern
day version of the Ku Klux Klan.” The reporter asked him what he would do if his son or daughter came out as gay.
“Well, I would dress my daughter first, as I would take her for a pedicure, I’d take her to get her nails done, and see if she could swim,” Porterfield said, smiling. “If it was my son, I
would probably take him hunting, I would take him fishing, then I’d see if he could swim,” Porterfield, still smiling.
Last week, the West Virginia legislature was debating a bill that would have banned cities and counties from protecting LGBTQ people in their anti-discrimination laws, like Tennessee,
North Carolina, and Arkansas currently do.
During the floor debate, Porterfield said that anti-discrimination laws were “bigoted,” “intolerant,” “discriminatory… nonsense” and “a travesty… against people who have either religious
convictions or who don’t want to run their business the way a socialist-left agenda wants us to run it.”
Remind me again why people get arrested for having ten grams of weed in their pocket but when degenerates like this spew their verbal diarrhea everywhere, there are no consequences? Freedom has limits and it's high time americans learned that
I knew he was gonna be wearing that hat before I even clicked on this thread.
He's a politician, he's above reproach.
They can pretty much say anything now and get away with it.
what the FUCK
The fact that he's wearing a MAGA hat tells me all I need to know about this guy.
What a loving and caring father.
"It was just a joke" say all the people who have slowly adjusted over time to welcome a totalitarian society with open arms
hope you choke on your next daily big mac, fat fuck
Porterfield was spurred to run for political office after a Republican Mercer County magistrate granted a protective order against him and his wife; this was in response to their organizing a boycott of a local
OB-GYN over her support of abortion rights. Porterfield has also cited his opposition to a law banning conversion therapy as a contributing factor in his decision to run.
Lovely dude
Oh look, another walking pile of gonorrhea that also just happens to wear a MAGA hat. What a total shock!
What a douche canoe.
If this dude dies I'd like to piss on his grave. Absolute fucking waste of space.
Pro life btw : )
Because Republicans have decided that the "for all" bit doesn't belong in the 21st century vision for America. Between a fear of change and rabid insecurity (and plenty of political scapegoating) leading to persecution complexes large enough to displace the moon, America's right-wing is confusing progressiveness and tolerance with surrender to a (((nebulous threat))). And if you don't believe that last bit just ask a Fox News viewer about George Soros.
i looked him up on twitter and i'm laughing my ass off why does he look like that

It just doesn't get anymore ironic than this. "How dare they not let me used a bigoted and prejudice scripture to be bigoted against people that the scripture said is evil!"
pale white
red hat wearing
looks like a pig in a suit
says things without an ounce of remorse
laughs about manslaughter and hate crimes
fucking can't wait for these red hat wearing nazis to die from their own arteries crusting over.
there are a lot of people that are blind dont like him wow
also you know people will make jokes like, oh boy i said poopy words on a podcast i could never run for office. Its like, nowadays it's the exact opposite where peoples whole platform is saying wretched shit
he legit looks like a batman villain or something and the shit he says kinda reinforces that
Inbred hick trash if I ever saw it.
I hope he changes his views, he needs to open his eyes to how ignorant they are. People like him could have a child come out as gay and theyd never see it coming. Its a real eye opener that someone like this can get into a position of power in a "first world" country.
Can he even drown his kids? His arms will float right back up to the surface.
Dominating, self-centered culture that believes itself to be above every other human being
The latter part of the snippet in the OP talking about "other religious convictions", we need to stop making exemptions on things for religious reasons for the same reason we've stopped making exemptions for anti-vaxxers; they're retarded.
I think I killed one of these in one of the Shadow Of Mordor games.
[weakness]: becomes enraged at the sight of gays
Ooh, that'll make it all the easier to get him to the lake after we visit the strip club. "Hey buddy, let's go to Disneyland!", then we go to a lake and see if he can swim.
