In reply to the discussion: Joe Rogan: Biden, Warren, Buttigieg asked to appear on his show [View all]DanTex
(20,709 posts)64. It's absolutely true. The guy literally said trans women should go to jail if they don't disclose
their trans status. And he was doubled over laughing when his buddy joked about killing -- killing! -- trans women.
I cannot believe you are defending him. Seriously what kind of human wants to sent trans women to jail for that? Who jokes around about hate crimes? You think it makes it OK just because in the middle of his laughter he said "no, you can't murder trans women". Yeah, great clarification. He doesn't really think murder is OK, he's just laughing about it but not really gonna go out on a murdering spree.
Really? That's all it takes for you to be OK with that stuff?
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided

I figured as much...probably Rogan's best quality is that he is liar...the rest is way worse.
