Anti-Gay GOP lawmaker offers $80 for gay teen Craigslist hookup

[FLAprogressive]

An anti-​gay, opposite-​sex married Indiana state lawmaker offered a young man he met through a Craigslist M4M section $80 to meet for a hookup at a local Marriott hotel, and when the young man tried to back out of the deal, exposed himself and tried to prevent him from leaving the hotel room, according to a report in the Indianapolis Star.

The six-​term, 64-​year old Catholic, Republican lawmaker, Rep. Phillip Hinkle, has voted against same-​sex marriage, and even voted to ban marriage equality via a constitutional amendment.

The Star recounts the entire event in great detail, from the time the young man, Kameryn Gibson, “who lists his age as 20 in the ad but says he is 18 years old,” is contacted by Hinkle, to Hinkle’s email address, to details of the email exchanges, and includes statements that Hinkle offered the young man and his sister — who came to rescue her brother once the deal went awry — $100, along with his Blackberry and iPad. Later, Hinkle’s wife reportedly offered the brother and sister $10,000 to keep quiet.

2. Another of Obama's 'Sanctified Straights'. He claims they have

a 'spiritual element' that gay people do not share in a relationship. The evidence is against the President's theory. And yet he continues to claim that Mr and Mrs Hinkle are superior to all gay couples and that God agrees with him.
I see those who pitch that bullshit as accomplices to the abuses done by those they know are no better than others. Those who claim God is in Hinkle's mix but not in the mix of any gay person are helping the Hinkles of this world, lying for them, and much like the open pimping on C-Street, making deals to cover up the facts and deliver pay offs to those they have abused. Hypocrites and liars, all of them.

God loves you, so long as you hate yourself.
