A Republican running for the Maine state legislature is dropping out of the race following criticism for calling one of the survivors of last month's mass shooting at a Florida high school a "skinhead lesbian." Leslie Gibson announced on Friday that he was ending his campaign for the Maine House of Representatives, the Portland Press Herald reported. The former candidate said he made the decision after talking it over with friends and family, calling it "the best thing for everybody." "I am not walking away with my head hung low. I am walking away with my head held high," Gibson said, according to the Press Herald. The Maine resident had come under fire for his comments about survivors of the Parkland, Fla., school shooting. "There is nothing about this skinhead lesbian that impresses me and there is nothing that she has to say unless you're a frothing at the mouth moonbat," Gibson tweeted in response to a report about Parkland student Emma Gonzalez. Gonzalez, a high schooler who identifies as bisexual, has become a vocal advocate for gun control in the weeks since the shooting. Gibson had also criticized another Parkland student and pro-gun control activist, David Hogg, calling him "a baldfaced liar."

Very confused and mixed up kid..
Speaking truth is not a desirable quality in a congress”person”.
GOOD RIDDANCE, WIMP!!!!!!!!!
Which lesbian is she?
And usually, you want a representative with more common sense...
I guess not. I knew exactly who he meant before seeing the picture.
Oh that meme is perfection.
Meanwhile, Democrats insult, disparage, and lie about Republicans with impunity.
I didn’t know. I hadn’t seen this particular specimen of Parkland.
BTW, Q-ball Dike and Sh*t Hogg are not "survivors". As far as I am aware they were not in the area. My facts could be off but my point remains. The word is a bastardization of language and facts. I guess the POS cops who stood outside "survived" also.
"NEVER let the crisis go to waste". We are hammered again.
Aw jeez, that’s worse than meeting with Farrakhan [/s. ]
Funeral-rally photo... what a surprise.
His description appears to be accurate.
Its a mild comment. I like people who tell it like they see it.
Rolled over and stomped into the ground for telling the truth.
I live in Maine and I never heard of Leslie Gibson, but he spoke the truth.
Most members of the Maine House also have jobs in the private sector or own businesses, in addition to being in the Maine House, which is not always in session and does not pay very much.
