"Florida Republican Compares Transgender People To 'X-Men' 'Mutants'

Rep. Webster Barnaby likened transgender people to “demons and imps” before the Florida House Commerce Committee approved a bill restricting bathroom access."

Does…does he think the X-Men are the *bad* guys?

Fantastic accidental backflip into becoming the exact kind of bigoted anti-mutant human villain from the biggest X-Men storylines, though.

After decades of reading X-Men comics, and understanding the turmoil put upon people wherever #discrimination exists, this is disgusting. #WebsterBarnaby is human trash.

“We have people that live among us today on planet Earth that are happy to display themselves as if they were mutants from another planet,” Rep. Webster Barnaby, R-Deltona, said before the House Commerce Committee.

NPR was right to stop tweeting - but they shouldn't have added "until." Just step away. Webster Barnaby is exactly the type of person Twitter now exists to serve: Bigots who will pay for checkmarks. Step away.

At minimum, they should remove Twitter buttons and links from their websites. Stop driving people there.

This is what republicans think of some ppl they are suppose to represent:

“The lord rebuke you, Satan, and all of your demons and all of your imps who come parade before us,” Barnaby said. “That’s right, I called you demons and imps, who come and parade before us and pretend that you are part of this world.” - #WebsterBarnaby #Republicans #RepublicanParty #Christians #Politics #Florida #Transgender
