After a gunman killed 49 people in a terrorist attack on a gay nightclub in Orlando, a prominent conservative blogger came out as gay in Monday blog post.
Jim Hoft is the proprietor of Gateway Pundit, a stridently conservative blog best known for its anti-Islam and pro-Israel stances and its embrace of anti-Obama conspiracy theories. Hoft has long been open about his sexuality to his friends and family, but never publicly addressed the issue.
“Like most gay Americans, I don’t wear my sexuality on my sleeve…” he wrote in a blog post cross-posted to Breitbart. “I’ve been a conservative activist for years. But today I’m coming out as a conservative gay activist.”
“Last night at least 49 gays were slaughtered at an Orlando club. Despite this obvious Islamic attack, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are still in denial,” continued Hoft. “I can no longer remain silent as my gay brothers and sisters are being slaughtered at dance clubs.”
Donald Trump, he argued, was “the one man who can lead this nation and protect all gays… I pray that gays will come back home to the Republican Party – no more death. Dear God, please no more death.”

HEY SJB!
Good to see you Brother, and hope all is good?
I cannot believe this latest habitual loser aka ‘imfbi’, bad enough they come back under another screen name but to then freely admit it?!?
OMG, the stupid was strong with that one.
And it’s probably only going to get worse.

I’ve never even remotely heard of this guy - probably for good reason.

Some take away any need to profile them like this last one.

What was the point! Self indulgence?
I believe the point was to turn other queers away from the Hildabeast and the Obamanation with the realization that they get gays killed through unchecked Islamic invasion. I hope it works as someone already posted above, we need all the help we can get.
