Rep. Paul Gosar said that the “homosexual-promoting” general “would be hung” in a better society.

Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) called for the execution of General Mark Milley, the chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in a homophobic tirade this weekend.

In his newsletter this weekend – published to his Congressional website – Gosar accused Milley of being a “homosexual-promoting-BLM-activist” who delayed the military’s response to the January 6 riot. An election denier, Gosar has in the past claimed that he “started the revolution,” referring to the insurrection.

    As a gay man who has hung a picture of a starry night on my wall, I did NOT think about that when I saw the word hung.

    It like if I said “a women’s chest size” to most men, they would not think of a hinged box size.

      You’re absolutely right!

      As a cis-het male (who actually learned that he was “very well hung” from the penis doctor), can I laugh at this fabulous difference?

      I already did. It’s just too great.
