Buttars said nothing that is false. Inflammatory yes… but not untrue. Anonymous asked for studies supporting the assertion that homosexuals are predators. One need only Google for a plethora of sites with studies and data supporting that fact. You may start with the Family Research Institute and the AFA Journal. And check out NAMBLA (the gay organization promoting man-boy sex).

Right behind him a fellow completely tore Paul a …. part.

Get a load of this latest,Buttars reprimanded for breaking his word, not content of anti-gay statements

Senate leaders did not discipline Sen Chris Buttars, R-West Jordan, for anti-gay comments he made in a recent interview, but because he violated a deal with leadership that he not talk about gay issues, a senator said Saturday.

Sen Howard Stephenson, R-Draper, said in a weekly Red Meat Radio program he hosts on K-TALK:

“Most of what Senator Buttars said, I agree with. We as a Senate caucus had an agreement that because Sen Buttars had become such a lightning rod on this issue, he would not be the spokesman on this issue and basically he violated that agreement.”

. . . At no time did Waddoups mention that Buttars had actually been told he could not speak on gay and lesbian issues. But it was the breach of that directive that led to the reprimand, according to Stephenson. Said Stephenson:

“It happened, not because he said a lot of things wrong, but because he decided to be the spokesman again.”

. . . Sen Dennis Stowell, R-Parowan, said on Stephenson’s radio show:
“I think the bulk of people in Utah agree with 90 percent of what he said.”

. . . Stephenson said he disagreed with one of Buttars’ points: that Buttars had single-handedly killed gay-rights legislation. Stephenson said defeating the legislation was a cooperative effort.

I’m heartened to see the Tribune stepped up to the plate. They certainly called the situation correctly (he’ll stay status quo) and named him for what he is.

Perhaps. In the meantime, shame on any and every gay who sets foot or spends money in that bigot-infested wasteland of a state.
