A congressional candidate and former felon who was recently pardoned by President Donald Trump said she stands by a series of anti-LGBTQ tweets that have earned her widespread criticism.
Angela Stanton-King, who announced Friday that she is running as a Republican to unseat iconic civil rights leader and Georgia Democratic congressman, Rep. John Lewis, compared gay and transgender people to pedophiles in a series of posts published over the weekend.
“Gay means Men having sex with men. If you wouldn’t want your 12 yr old daughter advertising that she enjoys sex with men/boys why your 12 yr old son?,” Stanton-King wrote in one tweet, alongside a picture of Zaya, former NBA star Dwyane Wade’s transgender daughter. “This is confusion, pedophilia and sexual exploitation wrapped up in acceptance.”

In every aspect of her miserable life. 
Really it says more about them that their mind would go there, then it says about the person they are attacking. 
I have no dog in this hunt, and I can't vote in Georgia in any case. But I wonder about this candidate's sincerity, when she allows her campaign to be used by self-serving anti-gay advocates.
