A Florida state representative expressed how much his political party hates gay people while urging his colleagues to vote in favor of a bill urging Congress to restore the militarys warfighting ethos and rid it of woke social engineering and experimentation practices.
On Monday, Republican Rep. Jeff Holcomb spoke in Floridas House, but his remarks drew gasps and disturbed looks from some lawmakers.
Isis, the Taliban, and Al-Qaeda, those are the folks who discriminate. We bombed a building in 2017 like we never usually do. We bombed it because they threw homosexuals off that building, Holcomb said.
He then said out loud what many are saying was the quiet part.

(18,751 posts)I think that was State Rep. Kelly Skidmore. The article said she was "seated behind Holcomb as he spoke, recoiled, her disgust visible on her face."
Her reaction was priceless. I think that's the most perfect "shocked Piachu" look I've ever seen on a human! I actually burst out laughing. I hope that doesn't sound offensive. It was like a "gallows humor" response on my part.
