Randy won't be Boehning anybody for awhile. |
North Dakota lawmaker who sent an explicit photo of himself to another man says the exchange being made public is retaliation for a recent vote against expanding gay rights.
Rep. Randy Boehning, a 52-year-old Republican legislator from Fargo, says a Capitol employee told him a fellow lawmaker vowed to out him as gay if he continued to vote against bills granting gays legal protections against discrimination.
Boehning refused to identify at this point who he believes is behind the purported political payback for his vote against Senate Bill 2279, the third such bill defeated in the past six years by North Dakota legislators.
The exchange came to light when Dustin Smith, a 21-year-old Bismarck man with no known connections to the Capitol, contacted The Forum earlier this month, saying he recognized Boehning from a gay dating smartphone app called Grindr. Chatting under the user name Top Man!, Boehning sent Smith sexually suggestive messages and, in the early morning hours of March 12, an unsolicited photo of his penis, according to exchanges reviewed by The Forum.
"How can you discriminate against the person you're trying to pick up?" Smith said in a recent interview.
Okay literally this kind of thing happens so often that when somebody comes out as especially anti-gay, my first response is "Yep probably gay."
It may not be fair, but there you have it.
And by the way how much better is it that this guy's name is literally "boning."
I mean that's just the cherry on top in my opinion.
These stories write themselves, don't they? What is it about rwnj's that they feel the need to project so strongly? You can always listen to what they're screaming about the loudest and correlate it to what they're doing.
ReplyDeletePerhaps it's time to give this phenomenon a name of it's own? How about Craig-Haggard Syndrome?
ReplyDeleteSexually repressed people from evangelical states exhibit deviant behavior. North Dakota is mostly "churchey" people who do not acknowledge diversity. Diversity in ND is keeping the Indians on reservations and recruiting black athletes for national champion team (NDSU) football.
ReplyDeleteI know. I raised my children there.
No surprise, this derp has emerged. Just really weird he got caught. Must be something in the water. Like oil.
Good, every closeted gay politician that votes against the people he is trying to pick up should be outed. Or they could quit sending out penis pictures of themselves and stay off grindr if they were so worried about it.
ReplyDeleteBTW in conservative ND he will not be re elected.
Of course he did.
ReplyDeleteThese hypocrites are so boring. But it doesn't make me any less sick of them.
ReplyDeleteFirst name Randy pretty funny, too. Randy Boehning is over the top.
ReplyDelete"Boning" from North "Dick-ota." This stuff writes itself.
ReplyDeleteI think you're more than fair, Gryph.
ReplyDeletePlease make a post of this. Please. The mainstream media is beholden to Hillary. http://www.ready4bernie.com/
ReplyDeleteBernie is way too old, I would never vote for him for the office of the presidency.
DeleteWhen they spout about "family values" they mean for the rest of us, not themselves!! He looks quite pleased with himself in the photo.
ReplyDeleteStory would be much better if he sent his dick pic to Todd.
ReplyDeleteAlso, in today's infoolum, a letter writer complained about all 'tehgay' news.
ReplyDeleteCan I at least get through the first section of the paper without having to see another article about gay. Enough already. This is not top priority stuff.
Don’t get me wrong. I have friends and relatives who are gay.....
This is a ND Repub...ain't a nickel worth of difference between them...

This has nothing to do with the gay community, except the fact one of their oppressors is a closeted gay man that sends out dicpics to every stranger he can on the intertubes.
DeleteIn Jon Stewart's illustrious words (gonna miss that guy): Just another politician with a conservative mind and a liberal penis.
ReplyDeleteOh, yoo hoo, RANDeee! There's a guy in MN by the name of Marcus Bachmann who would love for you to send him a dick pic! Grind away!!
ReplyDelete"How can you discriminate against the person you're trying to pick up?"
ReplyDeleteEvery vote that str8 Republicans make on women's healthcare, reproductive rights, fair pay, etc., etc. does exactly that. I think there is a group pathology that causes them to experience deep loathing toward anyone to whom they find themselves sexually attracted.
Another white Republican male that is overweight, a fraud and liar. Are we surprised? Vote as many Republicans out of office as you can in our next go around - across the nation and especially in the U.S. Congress!
ReplyDeleteOver on Raw Story, it's being reported that our amigo Josh Duggar claims that Christians who are prohibited from discriminating against LGBTQ folks are in fact victims of discrimination themselves. Do these people have any shame at all?
ReplyDeleteIsabel
Hey wait a minute! This guy is a member of the Republican Cockus?
ReplyDeleteGTFO!
Bet he still gets re-elected.
ReplyDeleteBecause...Republican.
He was doing it for "educational" purposes, or he wouldn't be wearing glasses and walking with a red tipped white cane and a companion dog, Oh, scratch that. Someone rent billboards in his district and post giant selfie penis photos everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI bet the guy who received that photo threw up in his mouth a little. If a man needs a girdle, the last thing he should be doing is joining a hook up site.
Ok, we're even, can we have Anthony Weiner back?
