WHAT??? He expects to win with this kind of stunt. He uses what could be a very confused and even prodded 9 year old boy as a sex prop for his campaign. The sexuality of a NINE YEAR OLD who has not even reached puberty? Pete Buttigieg Brings 9-Year-Old Boy on Stage to Announce He's Gay In what must be one of the most troubling political rallies hosted by Mayor Pete up to this point, the former South Bend mayor turned Democrat presidential candidate invited a 9-year-old boy to come on stage to announce to the entire world that he's gay..... ....Instead of telling the boy that he didn't have to concern himself with such issues considering that he hasn't reached puberty yet and can, therefore, literally not know to whom or what he's attracted. Buttigieg praised the young Zachary. ....Sure, Pete. If you were truly mindful of the above you should have used this opportunity to bring some sanity back into the LHBTQ-craziness. But no, instead of doing so, you actually used a confused little boy as a stage prop to score some cheap sympathy points with voters. I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad. https://pjmedia.com/election/pete-b...0V39FZVCEOIpYzlgSV2wvDElAbCL-5kjKQMttIJuPitIA
I can't speak for the 9yo. I can, however speak, from experience that many folks who are gay knew it long before they ever reached puberty. But that said, why folks feel that it is necessary to publicize their preferences is beyond me. To me, the way you are is simply the way you are. If your only identity is formulated by the preference you have for your bed, it's a pretty shallow experience. I think Pete is pandering here, and someone on his staff thought that by creating this "moment" that it would be "news worthy". I find that sad. More, that a child who still has a decade of future potential bullying in store for them had to be sacrificed on Pete's alter of publicity is as immoral and irresponsible as I can fathom. One can see why Pete hasn't ever been able to win a state contest in his home state of IN...
I don't think children a 9 years old have any concept of sexual preference. Yea I preferred to hang with my buds and not the girls, that didn't mean I wanted to have sex with them. Teaching a young nine year old boy that because he likes to hang with and be best buds with boys means he's gay is appalling and Buttigieg using that for political posturing even more so.
Wtf. A 9 year old doesn't know anything. I didn't have a good concept of my sexuality at 9. That's creepy.
Oh just let him get the nomination and watch the conservative PACS start running ads. Even the leftist here are trying to defend.
It is crazy as hell . I am sure there are also grown men who want to meet this gay 9 year old child. The parents allowed this child to be exploited by this candidate. Sick bastards including booty judge.
Any 9 year old who knows enough about sex to determine that he is gay. Has suffered abuse from the adults around them.
Pete, what you do with your weiner is your business but please don't drag a nine year old into your campaign and that goes double for Fauxhontas who promised to have a trans young person approve her secretary of education. If I were a leftie I would wear a bag over my head until the election is over.
It should be illegal for adults to prop children up for ANY political reason. I don't have a very large list of things I despise. I can count them all on one hand. 1: Rape. 2: Any type of crime on a child. 3: Exploiting children. That's it. So, what Buttigieg did here just PISSES me off.
It is story's, just like this, that I said long ago that mayor Pete will not be elected President. The country is not ready for a gay let alone a pedophile. He has ruined this boys life. What kind of parents let this happen? He exploited this child.
That just yells stunt. I think Pete is one of the 2 (Amy the other) who are not just a embarrassment to the DNC. I think he is a fairly bright guy. But this is just silly click bait actions on his part.
