Guys. Guys guys guys.
If it’s one thing I respect, it’s a man who stands up for his principles, even after being shot in the hip and having his life saved by a black lesbian despite spending his whole career denigrating the Blacks and the Gays.
That’s why I was I was heartened to read that even after surviving a mass shooting during a Congressional baseball game, Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise has remained staunch in his opposition to the most minimal forms of firearms regulation that even the NR-fuckin’-A supports; and that best of all, he will be speaking at the Value Voters Summit sponsored by the Family Research Council.
The Family Research Council has been labeled a hate group by the reputable Southern Poverty Law Center because of its unabated attacks on LGBTQ people and its links to white supremacy—including Rep. Scalise himself—who bee-tee-dubs refused to recognize MLK day and described himself as “David Duke without the baggage.”
M’kaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
So what if Crystal Griner—a married black lesbian police officer—took a bullet in the leg for this man and literally saved his life? Who cares? One thing has nothing to do with the other!
The fact that he’d be six feet under if not for Officer Griner shouldn’t stop Rep. Scalise from continuing his impassioned, noble life’s work of slandering the humanity of the woman he called “part of his family.”
I mean—right?
Family Research Council president Tony Perkins celebrated Rep. Scalise’s healthy return to for-profit homophobia by noting in a memo that the Congressman’s miraculous recovery will “literally take center stage, as Steve makes a return to the biggest gathering of pro-family conservatives in the country after a shooting that rocked the country.” Because, “for so many Americans, seeing him back at work, defending our values, has been an answer to prayer.”

I for one am looking forward to Steve's speech on lucky Friday, October 13.
Yes.
Yes.
Thank the Lord our prayers were answered and that this class act didn’t let the fact that he almost died from gunshot wounds in the arms of a black lesbian stop him from Stanning David Duke and shilling for an organization that claims the woman who saved his life is harming society at large and that her very existence is “associated with negative physical and psychological side effects.”
It’s not every day that America is treated to an example of such unwavering character and principle. We could all stand to learn a lesson in morality from Rep. Steve Scalise.
