Legislator’s First Speech Is A Barnburner As He Tells Colleagues To “be Gay. Do by Chibu1189(m): 9:20pm On Jan 03, 2021 |
Ricardo Menéndez March’s maiden speech to New Zealand’s House of Representatives was a barnburner as he exhorted his colleagues to “Be gay. Do crime.” A self-described “transgressive queer socialist,” the young member of parliament (MP) emigrated from Mexico and is part of a wave of diverse legislators elected in 2020. “I want to start by acknowledging everybody who has had to lie to work and come to survive,” Menéndez March started. “In our queer community, there’s a saying I love that goes, ‘Be gay. Do crime.’ And to me, it means to be transgressive, to acknowledge the decision makers who created rules that criminalize our survival and our existence.” Menéndez March’s first speech lasted 15 minutes and outlined a solidly progressive worldview as he called out the country’s colonial history and political domination by white straight cisgender people. “The rules were simply not made for us. They were made to uphold a system where the wealthy few keep getting richer at the expense of our planet. And this House is enabling it.” New Zealand now has the queerest Parliament in the world with LGBTQ people making up 10% of the membership. His speech was met with applause and hugs.

Not Suprised! The World is Entering into the next level of iniquity and Abominations that will destroy it.. It's Gonna be like in the days of Noah, Lot and Sodom and Gomorrah. As sin Multiples and increases, also understand that God's Power to Save is very Much available for all who desire to be Saved. |

He used it as a metaphor. Bozos are gonna bounce in this thread like hot water to justify their homophobia. If you are not in the LGBT+ community or at least an ally, then you have no idea what the phrase mean... Research on it before spewing ignorance |
