Man Whose Life Was Saved By Married Lesbian Cop To Speak At National Convention Of Anti-LGBT Haters

Via press release from hate group leader Tony Perkins:

There were times when we wondered if House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) would ever speak at VVS again. But next week, the miraculous recovery of my good friend will literally take center stage, as Steve makes a return trip to the biggest gathering of pro-family conservatives in the country after a shooting that rocked the country. For so many Americans, seeing him back at work, defending our values, has been an answer to prayer — and we look forward to celebrating his incredible journey back to health next Friday, October 13.


While a member of the Louisiana legislature and as his website proudly notes, Steve Scalise authored his state’s successful 2004 ban on same-sex marriage. He continued his crusade in the US House, authoring and sponsoring numerous anti-marriage bills, including a 2014 attempt to allow states to override any federal rulings on same-sex marriage rights.

The guy was shot by some nut case gun-humper and his life was saved by a lesbian so how does this experience change him? It doesn't. He is still 100% against any kind of gun control and still firmly anti-LGBT. I can't say here how I wish that whole situation really went down.

What else needs to happen to Scalise to change his heart from the shriveled, hateful organ currently occupying his chest?

That completely incapacitates him for the rest of his life, that's what it will take!!!

He'll leave congress and have to struggle to survive for the rest of his life, because he won't be of any use to anyone...which is he deserves...

Especially if someone who doesn't fit their belief structure might want to get married and start a family.
