In reply to the discussion: Fuck Ron Paul. [View all]DevonRex
(22,541 posts)22. FRP for being a disgusting racist homophobe. I expected
the racism. But the level of his homophobia is shocking and frightening. From now on, he's no different from those knuckle draggers who beat Matthew Shepard to death in Wyoming.

Yeah, he removed the preacher from the site. But it had already dog whistled to every vile homophobe in the US that RP is their guy.
