From LGBTQNation, something which took place last week. And it will make you cheer:
During a public testimony hearing, an anti-LGBTQ rant from a Florida man was so offensive that a Republican lawmaker had to shut him down. Greg Pound—who has made a name for himself by attending public hearings to tout conspiracy theories and spew offensive language—was attempting to testify before the Florida House Appropriations Committee about a controversial school voucher program that provided funding to many anti-LGBTQ Christian schools.
He opened his testimony by linking LGBTQ folks to pedophiles and promptly got shot down by the chair of the committee, Travis Cummings. Naturally, Pound wasn't happy, but he will get over it. As you can see and hear, the other people watching the hearing were very happy.
