THE row over Monmouth MP David Davies' comments on gay marriage took an unexpected turn this afternoon when he responded to claims he was homophopic by saying he 'once fought a gay boxer'.
The Gwent MP said on his Twitter account:"Once fought gay boxer. Respect & like.trained with after bout so not bigoted. actvists calm down - listen to other views."
He included a link to video of the fight: on YouTube:
Mr Davies had earlier attacked UK Government plans to allow same sex marriages in church, calling them politically "barking mad."
The politician hit out at the plan to hold same sex marriage ceremonies in Welsh and English churches, put forward by prime minister David Cameron.
Davies also said to the BBC: "I think most parents would prefer their children not to be gay" in an interview yesterday morning.
Speaking to BBC Radio Wales, he said: "What is going to happen is that we're going to lose a large number of very loyal activists who've gone out and campaigned for us over the years and who don't like this idea, so politically it's barking mad."
Like saying "one of my best friends is black".
Allows one to say anything there after and not be criticized.
“responded to claims he was homophopic by saying he ‘once fought a gay boxer’.”
Apparently he’s telling the truth. He wasn’t afraid to fight. So where’s the “homophobia” or fear of fags?
A gay boxer? Did the fag box w a limp wrist hitting down?
.
Watch out, a lot of those faggots can brawl.
“Watch out, a lot of those faggots can brawl.”
Maybe over a pair of pumps..
Well if you are ever in New Orleans just go hang out outside a gay bar and harass the queers. They will kick your a$$. Many stupid rednecks have found this out the hard way.
I had a downtown office for years and saw more of that sort of thing than I cared to see. The wackier they look the nuttier they are and they’ll fight, dirty. Don’t think they don’t know how. Knives at a minimum and they’ve likely used them before. Steer clear. They’ll do themselves in of their own accord soon enough.
