Tea party favorite Rep. Allen West (R-FL) has reportedly fired an intern for retweeting a message critical of comedian Tracy Morgan's recent homophobic rant.

A member of the audience who attended Morgan's stand-up routine in Tennessee recalled on Facebook that the comedian said that if his son came out to him then "he would pull out a knife and stab that little N (one word I refuse to use) to death."

A member of the band Scissor Sisters responded with a message on Twitter.

"Dear Tracy Morgan's son: if you are gay, you can TOTALLY come live with me. We'll read James Baldwin & watch Paris is Burning. xxANA," Ana Matronic wrote.

1. I think the Muslim religion is against gays

I think West could be a Muslim. He should be asked this so the country knows. And has he invoked Sharia Law??

2. That man is unstable and dangerous.
