Florida Rep. Mike Hill vs. the gay establishment
By Eric Giunta
Another day, another round of hypocrisy and manufactured outrage by Florida's political left-wing: In the latest fake upset, a Halloween-coalition of the state's LGBT lobby and GOP establishment hacks have set their sights on one of the state's two black Republican legislators.
His crime? Laughing off a patently ridiculous proposal by a constituent that he propose legislation criminalizing sodomy.
In a sane world, Rep. Mike Hill's flippant dismissal would be taken to mean that the proposal was so ridiculous he obviously could not and did not take it seriously.
In fact, no normal person would take offense at Hill's response. Not being normal people, that has not stopped Republican leaders in the state legislature from joining state Democrats in demanding that Hill – who made history in 2013 when he became the Florida Panhandle's first black Republican elected to the Legislature in 126 years – apologize for his nonendorsement of sodomy laws or resign from office.
Yeah, good luck with that.
Mike Hill deserves a strong show of support by his colleagues, and an apology from Republican leadership.
Not a single person honestly believes that Hill is contemplating sponsorship of legislation to put homosexuals to death. Everyone knows that the real target of this latest brouhaha isn't this utterly un-newsworthy incident, but any opposition whatsoever to the LGBT political agenda, which under the guise of "non-discrimination" really is advocating and implementing the physical persecution, by the state, of peaceful Americans who simply do not wish to affirm or accommodate homosexualist and transgenderist ideology and lifestyle choices.
Republican legislators and other men of goodwill in positions of cultural and political influence need to start calling LGBT activists out on this. And for that matter, start calling them out on their claims to represent homosexuals and transgendered persons in the first place. . . .
