Just when I think the asinine things being said by those on the right, who almost always are men, can get any worse, they do...
Granted these aren't new statements by Maine Rep. Lawrence Lockman they are never the less ridiculous and often hateful and ignorant.
“Clearly the practice of sodomy is learned behavior, and those addicted
to this form of biologically-insane sex are at high risk for all manner
of serious medical problems”
He was against an anti-bullying law saying it was a form of thought policing.
He said a 1990 CBS special about a gay boy was “a recruitment tool for the militant homosexual movement”
And that's just a few example found in an article on the Bangor Daily News webiste
But what got my to blog about this guy was this statement, a statement made in the 90's but written about yesterday on Salon.com: “If a woman has (the right to abortion), why shouldn’t a man be free to
use his superior strength to force himself on a woman? At least the
rapist’s pursuit of sexual freedom doesn’t (in most cases) result in
anyone’s death.”
How do people who think like this and spout these uninformed thoughts in public get elected?
