The idiot congressman who is my district's representative, Burgess Owens, gave the young ladies in the audience a playbook for recognizing a real man.
His district was just gerrymandered to keep the seat in Republican hands. This was the area Jim Matheson and Ben McAdams served in as Democrats. Not for the next 10 years now. Which is why we Democrats in Utah register as Republicans so we can vote in their closed primary. Sadly, it's our only tool to weed out the real a-holes so we can elect lesser a-holes.

'Real men' know how to use a gun just as they do an iPhone, Utah Rep. Burgess Owens says
PHOENIX — Admonishing young women to keep "your standards so high that real men would strive to achieve your respect," Utah Republican Rep. Burgess Owens defined in a weekend speech what he believes "real men" do and don't do.
"I'm going to tell you how to recognize real men, OK, young ladies? Young men, listen up, gotta man up, here we go," he said Sunday at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest in Phoenix.
Founded by conservative activist and radio show host Charlie Kirk, Turning Point USA advocates for conservative values on high school and college campuses. Other speakers at the conference included Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson and Kyle Rittenhouse.
Owens suggested men should be ready to use a gun, stand against transgender athletes and not stay silent about COVID-19 vaccine trials for children and infants.
"Real men when evil steps up to the doorstep do not get on their knees and beg for mercy for the wife and kids. He's prepared himself. Just like he knows how to use an iPhone he knows how to use a gun, and he shows up and takes care of business," Owens said, drawing applause and cheers from the crowd.
"He's determined to never, never allow his wife and kids to look at him as a whiner, weenie and wimp."
Owens, who wrote a book titled, "Liberalism or How to Turn Good Men into Whiners, Weenies and Wimps," made similar comments about men using guns to defend their families in the past.
'Certain laws, certain standards'
A former NFL football player who won a Super Bowl with the Oakland Raiders, Owens also repeated his position on transgender women competing in sports.
"Real men do not stand by silently as biological men compete against women, take their life's worth and feel no shame. He understands that God put in place certain laws, certain standards," Owens said. God, he said, "created two genders, men and women. Period."
Owens railed against a Pfizer and BioNTech announcement last week to expand ongoing clinical trials of their COVID-19 vaccines in children to include a third dose for participants as young as 6 months old. The companies said two doses did not produce a robust immune response in kids 2 to 5 years old.
"Real men do not stand silent as our kids are being used as guinea pigs," he said. "This is a father who's a coward, he's a whiner, weenie and wimp that lets a 6-month little baby be vaccinated so that CNN feels good about it. Unbelievable."
In his speech, Owens also attacked critical race theory, saying "real men would not stand by cowardly as leftists teach our children to hate others based on race."
The first-term congressman also said "real men" do not stand by and watch children and women being trafficked at the southern border with Mexico.
"It doesn't matter if those children are ours or not. Those children are ours. Period. And we should never stand by and let this evil ideology, this godless ideology use, abuse and discard these beautiful children and women for the sake of power and profit," he said.
Owens faces reelection in 2022. So far, Republicans Jake Hunsaker and Nick Huey have launched campaigns to unseat him. Huey challenged Owens to a lie detector test earlier this year. Owens did not respond to the invitation.
And speaking of elections, voting, and gerrymandering, I did address the Millcreek City Council last night asking them to designate the area in SL County where all our districts meet as "Boundary Pass." The idea got some laughs. The mayor liked my "Boundary Pass" bumper stickers. I'll go again next month to press forward.

Seems pretty mild compared to the average every day run of the mill repub. His delivery could use a bit of polishing tho.
I remember winter camping back in the high school years shooting rabbits and squirrels to survive, putting em in a soup. Nothing wrong at all with knowing how to use a firearm. Knowing how to fish is also a plus.
Gender switching athletes are demolishing girls records in local high schools right now. I'm definitely not down with that either. Give the switchers their own fucking category I say.
He probably has a decent argument on his child vax stance too.
He's appealing to the tarded repub base, that's all. The country's loaded with em.

Ras, do you encourage your children to use hateful language in the household as well, or do you just spew that shit where you can do so anonymously?
Just curious about the amount of influence you have had upon the next generation of low information Americans. I'm guessing your kids were very scared to date outside of their own race and have called others "retarded" at least a few times. Based on your disposition here, anyway.

I find it difficult to disagree with said Republican, even if I disliked him / her. The politicians are all total assholes, but this one says some sensible things to win the Utah election.
People should not let their children be Guinea Pigs for experimental shots, period. And I'm against racism in any form.
I know, I know that someone will criticize me for expressing my opinion, but I don't vote in Utah, I don't have a kickback scheme going on with Pfizer or Moderna, and Utah has some pretty scenery, and tons of Weirdo Mormons.

A local media outlet used to have an "Ask Burgess" feature. Here was my contribution, which got me a $25 gift certificate.
Do you actually believe the stupid shit you say, or are your statements just new “shiny objects” to distract people from realizing you’re a moron and deserve to be recalled while you continue to suck $200,000 a year from the American taxpayer so you don’t need to unethically suck money from a charity for children to make a living since you have no discernable skills?

Some conservatives have found a way to deflect from their own racist views with the idea that public schools are teaching something they call "Critical Race Theory" or CRT. In their world view, CRT (which isn't part of any public school curriculum) is an attempt by Marxists to indoctrinate children with the idea that white people are all oppressors and black people are all oppressed, thereby perpetuating racial animus and strife. That is what is getting all these wacky parents all riled up and making fools of themselves with public meltdowns at school board meetings over something that simply doesn't exist.

Presenting historical facts isn't racist. If those facts make Europeans and White Americans look bad, it still isn't racist.

Don't forget, if we're to use scientific methods, we need to be able to replicate them.
Doctors are always "practicing" medicine on us. I've practiced home brewing in the past, and served a number of them to my guinea pig friends, with some pretty good results.
I think the repub is incorrect saying CRT teaches hate.
Fear factors are amazing, particularly when the religious right are so afraid of facts. I guess, like my cat, they don't like to see themselves in the mirror.

And see him out there on that boat with his disciples and you start thinking, this sounds like the recipe for a tragic, alcohol related, boating accident. Some people say it's salvation, I say it sounds a lot like happy hour."
