GOP Lawmaker Called on to Resign After Using Homophobic Slur, Defending Milo Yiannopoulos, and Comparing Gays to Klan: WATCH<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Freshman Delegate Eric Porterfield (R-Mercer), a GOP lawmaker in West Virginia, is being called on to resign after protesting an LGBTQ non-discrimination amendment by declaring gays<\/a> \u201cbigoted\u201d and citing the persecution of Milo Yiannopoulos\u2019 (while reciting aloud the name of his \u201cDangerous Faggots Tour\u201d) as proof that \u201cLGBT is the most socialist group in this country. They do not protect gays<\/a>.\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n

Said Porterfield<\/a>: \u201cAs legislators, I don\u2019t think it\u2019s our job to legislate behavior\u2026This is discrimination against the first amendment and religious liberty, and the LGBT is the most socialist group and they don\u2019t protect gays<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

He went on to cite the persecution of alt-right white supremacist homocon troll Yiannopoulos: \u201cThis is the name of his tour, this is not what I named his tour, but he was on what he referred to as the \u2018Dangerous F\u2026\u2026.. Tour\u2019 and the LGBT stormed that building and did $200,000 worth of damage because he didn\u2019t line up with their ideology. We cannot allow discriminatory bigots to determine how our citizens are going to live<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Porter\u2019s rant came after a delegate tried to add an amendment to House Bill 2699 that would have prohibited cities from adding nondiscrimination ordinances that protect sexual orientation and gender identity.<\/p>\n

Porterfield followed up his remarks the following day with claims that he was being persecuted and compared gay people to the KKK<\/a>, the Charleston Gazette-Mail reports: \u201cThe LGBTQ is a modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan, without wearing hoods with their antics of hate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The paper adds: \u2018He also called the gay<\/a> community a \u201cterrorist group\u201d and said he is being \u201cpersecuted\u201d by the gay<\/a> community in retaliation for his remarks, including receiving threats on Facebook and voicemails.\u2019<\/p>\n

Porterfield also wrote about his persecution, saying on social media: \u201cLast night and today, members of the LGBTQ have exercised hate crimes and threatened my safety. We have reported this to the Capitol Police in Charleston and I would like all of my friends to pray for the safety of me and my family. These vicious monsters are proving that they are the most bigoted and discriminatory people in America. Though they try to intimidate and bully and try to strike fear to me and my family, we ask the Lord to help us stand tall against their persecution and their leftist minions within the legislature.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cI believe my enemies just re-elected me in 2020. My campaign was very clear, that I would stand for the 1st amendment, religious liberty, pro-life, pro family, the second amendment, right to work and promote business growth. My statements in the Committee meeting prove that I meant what I said. I would like to thank the enemies of freedom, the first amendment and religious liberty for the free advertisement. With their help I won\u2019t have to campaign as hard next time. Lol\u00a0\u201d<\/p>\n

The irony of Delegate Eric Porterfield opposition to protecting the LGBT community against discrimination in Housing, employment, etc, is that it would protect individuals with blindness, such as he. It does not protect stupidity though, which Porterfield is qualified in. pic.twitter.com\/1u26c6xf1z<\/a><\/p>\n
