Sirius Host Tells Romney Supporter to Drink Arsenic
11-5-2012
Michelangelo Signorile has since apologized for his comments, where he tells a caller to drink poison after the caller said he would support Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. Signorile said, "Any gay person who votes for Romney is undermining his own life, his own rights, and the lives and rights of all other LGBT people. And let’s be clear: It is Romney, with his bigoted positions." Signorile is also gay, and heard on Sirius Out Q 108.
Here's a transcrit from Signorile's show courtesy of Newsbusters. "On Wednesday I challenged a gay caller, Wess, who expressed his support for Mitt Romney. While expressing the thought that any gay person who votes for Romney is doing himself harm, I began an analogy in the wrong place. After the caller said he voted for Romney, I said he should just get some arsenic, make a potion, and take it, which would be more painless. Not because I thought he should kill himself—I do not think gay Romney supporters should kill themselves—but because voting for someone who is committed to undermining your rights is a self-destructive behavior. Any gay person who votes for Romney is undermining his own life, his own rights, and the lives and rights of all other LGBT people. And let’s be clear: It is Romney, with his bigoted positions (“Some gays are actually having children. It’s not right on paper. It’s not right in fact.”), who feeds a culture of hate that leads to gay teen suicides."
