shauna? @goldengateblond 9h9 hours agoWhen Scalise was shot, the cop who threw herself over him was a married lesbian. Here's how he's repaying her. 😒
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 states 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.
