PHILADELPHIA -- When Brian Sims first ran for state representative in 2012, he ran as a new pro-business voice. He was going to be a bridge builder, brimming with common-sense ideas on pocketbook issues.
He never met that promise.
Instead, he became many other things: an outdoor adventurer who climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro; a partisan attack dog who accused fellow state Rep. Martina White of saying she wanted to deport all immigrants, something his staff had to admit she never said; and a celebrity activist whose lucrative, nationwide speaking circuit earned him an ethics investigation.
He also became the guy who tweeted a photo of himself wearing a suit and a smirk and raising his middle finger to Vice President Mike Pence.
Sims captioned the photo saying: "(L)et me be the first to officially welcome you to the City of Brotherly Love and my District! We're a City of soaring diversity. We believe in the power of all people. Black, Brown, Queer, Trans, Atheist, & Immigrant. So ... get bent, then get out!"
Last week, Sims decided to film his own harassment of a woman outside an abortion clinic here in Philadelphia, calling her an "old white lady" and her beliefs "grotesque" to her face and to the camera. The clear plan was to incite his audience against this peaceful protester, whom he saw as clearly bigoted and evil.
For Twitter observers, the whole act opened the window into a dark, dark place in American culture, a gaping divide none of us quite know how to navigate.
And while Sims' harassment was, on the one hand, shocking, it was expected. A politician abusing his power thusly to crush religious conservatives is exactly what so many of us have been bracing for.
This was no outburst in the heat of a debate. He wasn't reacting to a stressful situation. It also wasn't a talk-show appearance that went sour, nor was it a barroom brawl. He wasn't caught off guard at his home or his office or a campaign event.
This was an emboldened, out-of-touch, arrogant elected official who woke up one day last week and made a conscious decision to go to Planned Parenthood for the express purpose of fighting and badgering.
And he chose a woman standing by herself. And he didn't start a dialogue. He didn't introduce himself. He badgered her. Repeatedly. Relentlessly. Angrily. He badgered an enemy he himself described as an old lady.
Then he badgered women younger than he, asking his Twitter following to identify them and expose them for the crime of being anti-abortion.
Sims not only chose to do this; he did this with malice aforethought.
And how do we know that? Because he himself filmed it. This wasn't caught on film by an anti-abortion activist or passerby. Sims filmed it all on purpose. Then, having done these things, having behaved this way and presumably, viewed this film, he released it with great fanfare, regaled himself for what he had done and asked people to send money to, in essence, support their shared views, values and cause.
We must reflect on this. This is the extreme left acting out in public in exactly the manner they ascribe to conservatives: confrontational, intimidating, with police tactics, berating women, threatening the First Amendment.
This stunning behavior -- premeditated, confrontational, abusive of the power of office, targeted toward women, contrived to gain political benefit -- occurred and has not been criticized by anyone on the left. No elected Democrat has come out and condemned Sims publicly.
Think about that.
This is not about anti-abortion and pro-abortion. This is about behavior that is so out of step, so out of line, so shocking to most of America but is allowed to occur without a word of disapproval from half the country.
Typical RAT, a despicable, cowardly piece of crap.
Anyone who advocates the slaughter of innocent life in the womb ought to be, ipso facto, disqualified from holding public office in The United States. The position is diametrically opposed to the very purpose of government and state.
Loathsome POS. Vain queer. Probably angry because he is going bald. Brain damage from being hit in the face by countless balls.
btt
Typical deranged homo, deep down inside, he probably hates himself for what he is.
wouldn’t it be something if a PA elected official got into this bully’s grill But since they are republiwussies will never happen
Hew Brian try your act out here in Wisconsin outside of MAdistan or MKE - you might enjoy where we shove that I phone you are using to make your twitter rants
Brian Sims locks his twitter account and puts guard in front of his Philly office.
The left is working itself up to the level of violence they reached in other countries. The Nazis did not start with rounding up and killing people by the millions. They started by harassing people and worked up to destroying property and committing physical harassment before they became methodical about it. Other socialist countries have taken the same trajectory, but we know less about them because the other socialists did not fall out of favor with the American left the way the German socialists did.
Our left is following the same trajectory towards pogrom, made the more violent by their desperation over our refusal to vote them into power.
“...And he chose a woman standing by herself. ...”
Of course he did.
Because a MAN would have punched his face through to the back of his head.

“..The Nazis did not start with rounding up and killing people by the millions....”
No, you’re correct; they didn’t.
First, they passed gun control/confiscation - including the “Sporting Purpose” clause (read the democrats Gun Control Act of 1968, which they copied from the Germans).
And Germans, being good “law-abiding citizens”, complied. THEN they did the rounding up.
Because nobody could shoot back.
And they used the old lists of firearms owners that the Kaiser’s people generated in the prior “war emergency” during WW1 that were sitting in file cabinets for 20+ years.
The Nazis took a trajectory of escalation. They took away guns, yes, but they also demonized and ostracized people. Then they started destroying their homes and properties and harassing and intimidating them. They had to work themselves up to the point where they had successfully dehumanized and demonized certain groups of people before they started imprisoning and killing them.
It seems that every socialist regime has a group of people that it deems enemies of the state in order to justify killing them. I suppose that if they can keep their loyal followers focused on the “other” as the source of societal problems, it keeps the followers from perceiving that the socialist dictators are the true problem.
I wonder if she has Walt Sandman’s lawyer’s phone number.
“We believe in the power of all people. Black, Brown, Queer, Trans, Atheist, & Immigrant. So ... get bent, then get out!”
We believe in power of all people except heterosexual whites!
Brian Sims did not verbally assault the praying women and children because they were anti-abortion. He attacked them because they were praying Christians. He knows the Bible condemns homosexualty, and he cannot accept this fact. He knows God exists. He believes in God. He refuses to BEIIEVE GOD. Thus he is a miserable human being. He is not gay, and I have never known a homosexual that was.
YOU VILL NOT PRAY!!
Typical deranged homo, deep down inside, he probably hates himself for what he is.
Bingo. Because when you’re a homo, that’s all and everything you are. It’s your entire identity and existence.
So when sane people point out how unhealthy, depraved, and unnatural you are, you go full on insane.
