A Republican legislator said that he would drown his own kids is if they turned out to be gay.

West Virginia delegate Eric Porterfield appeared on WVVA, an NBC affiliate, to talk about homophobic comments he made last week, where he said that LGBTQ people are “a modern day version of the Ku Klux Klan.”

He wore a red MAGA cap – along with a shirt and tie – during the interview.

The reporter asked him what he would do if his son or daughter came out as gay.

“Well, I would dress my daughter first, as I would take her for a pedicure, I’d take her to get her nails done, and see if she could swim,” Porterfield said, smiling.

“If it was my son, I would probably take him hunting, I would take him fishing, then I’d see if he could swim,” Porterfield, still smiling.

5. YEP

Something wrong with that picture for sure!!!!! FUCKING IDIOTS for sure!!!

[Stuart G]

40. This reply is "sarcasm" let that be clear from the start....ok?

...The "FUCKING IDIOTS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA"...FIAA..for short, wants you to know that we as an association want to have nothing to do with any sort or kind of Republicans..

...It is our belief that just because we often do not think correctly or clearly..for whatever reasons that make us idiots...that we under..no circumstances or possible events want to ever be identified with the stupid fools in the Republican Party. The Republican Party has soured our name on many occasions, and we totally resent their lack of sensitivity to our situation. Therefore we are taking a strong stand against the Republican Party because of there special level of "STUPIDITY FAR BEYOND US"...

thank you...

2. There are no words NT

[Eliot Rosewater]

3. LAST WEEK he said it, not 2 years ago, not 10 years ago LAST WEEK

[Bettie]

27. Really? I was actually hoping

that this was from several years ago.

What piece of work.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

4. Asshole........

This man defines the worst of what being a loving, accepting Christian is about.

[Dennis Donovan]

6. Video (but avert your eyes)

[3catwoman3]

11. The still picture is quite...

...sufficient. I’ll spare my brain the video.

[Dennis Donovan]

13. Good choice...

[ooky]

14. Another Republican ignoramous.

Apparently, an evil one.

[atreides1]

19. Looks like his family tree...

...went straight up, without branching out!!!

[Codeine]

23. Holy mother of shit.

Take a gander at that Jabba-the-motherfucking-Hutt-looking pile of goddamned blubber! If his kids take after him they’ll be FAR too buoyant to drown regardless of their orientation or identities.

30. Inbred mutant.

33. Couldn't

take but a few seconds of the boorish pig.

[peggysue2]

34. O.M.G.

Picture is worth a thousand words, as they say.

My eye bleach is already opened.

I guessing this man considers himself a good Christian, too. Because certainly this is what Jesus of Nazareth would suggest: drown all your children; protect your guns and exterminate all abortionists, gay people and brown-skinned immigrants.

[Mr. Quackers]

36. Old Testament "God of Abraham"

would approve!

[Beausoleil]

39. I'd like to see if he can swim! n/t

[leftynyc]

41. I could have guessed

he'd look EXACTLY like that.

[treestar]

53. Who decided to elect him to the legislature?

The voters may have just hit "R" as they are in a very red state, but do they really agree with this guy?

[spanone]

7. they are scum at best.

[Croney]

8. What if they come out at ages old enough to handcuff him and hold him for the police?

I was going to say "old enough to overpower him and stick his head down the toilet" but I'm not a violent person.

[MagickMuffin]

9. If I was his son or daughter I'd get the hell outta there

Perhaps Child Protective Services should pay his family a visit. They could very well be in an abusive family. Any parent who would smile when talking about drowning their own children then YIKES.

[mr_lebowski]

10. He's was only JOKING, sheesh, can't you libtard snowflakes take a JOKE!?!

And it's SO FUNNY I MEAN HAR-DEE-FREAKIN-HAR, amirite?

[dameatball]

12. I wonder what his kids think of this?

[Afromania]

16. I imagine they probably already know not to come to him with anything, about anything.

If he has kids, I don't know. Won't bother spending any time looking him up.

[Codeine]

26. I'm quite confident he's already eaten his children. nt

[dameatball]

28. Yes, and apparently there were quite a few of them.

[volstork]

38. Had to give you a heart

for that comment. It made me snort!

[Codeine]

42. My work is done here. nt

[volstork]

45. ; )

[Gothmog]

15. Who is surprised by this?

Repugs are not good parents

[jcmaine72]

17. Hopefully, his kids would wipe him first in an act of self-defense.

People like this don't deserve the gift of children.

[RussBLib]

18. I'd love to see him in jail for killing his kids

except for those poor kids

who knows? maybe the fat fuck is quite different at home. wouldn't be the first time, living at least two lives

[Goodheart]

20. What woman was desperate enough to sleep with that ugly bastard?

[3catwoman3]

32. I was resisting the temptation to say exactly that.

I'm glad you beat me to it.

[hlthe2b]

21. I think state dept. of family services needs a flood of calls. He's just expressed a threat to his

kids..

[okaawhatever]

22. I wonder how much of the homeless LGBTQ teenage population is a direct result of parents like

this? Things are pretty bad at home with living on the street is a better option. Listening to this disgusting person helps me understand why kids make that choice.

[justhanginon]

43. I cannot even imagine what that would do to a young

persons psyche to be rejected by their parents for being who they are. That is child abuse of a terrible sort. The very people that gave them life now reject them. And unfortunately to say, much of it is religion driven and the religious leaders responsible for it simply don't care and even seem to push that mindset.

[Charlotte Little]

24. His children should disown him

The horror on the right never ends.

[marble falls]

25. Pretty freaking dismal.

[tanyev]

29. So...if sexual preference could be determined in the womb, he'd be pro-abortion?

[ck4829]

50. Ooh, good question

[shenmue]

31. What a piece of shit

[ck4829]

49. Indeed

[getagrip_already]

35. Which means he, himself, is gay.... and too cowardly to kill himself...

Too many times these muffers are trying to cover up their own secrets. It will come out at some point.

[Ohiogal]

37. What an appalling, disgusting,

P.O.S.

I hope his kids disown the cretin.

[ck4829]

48. +1

[FakeNoose]

44. I hope somebody alerts the police and family services in his hometown

This guy is a menace.

[ck4829]

47. He is

[ck4829]

46. Disturbing

[Dorian Gray]

51. Holy Shit

what the FUCK is wrong with this man???????????????

[Luciferous]

52. What a POS.
