TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- The son of U.S. Rep. Allen Boyd is facing alien smuggling charges in Arizona.
The Democratic congressman, who is seeking a seventh term this November, said Tuesday that his 30-year-old son, John Boyd, was arrested Sunday on the human trafficking charges.
In a statement from his office, Congressman Boyd said his son is a grown man and must face the consequences for his actions but has the support of the family.
Boyd is being challenged by Panama City Republican Mark Mulligan in the Nov. 4 general election.
Somebody screwed up...heads will roll over that mistake!
Likely it would be in the headline.

Hey, they were COUNTING ON EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID. You skipped the sentence with the party affiliation - they set it apart on purpose.
Notice that whenever it’s a Republican in trouble, the party affiliation is there with his name: Ima Dumas (R), HX
and when it’s a Democrat, it’s something like this:
Rep. Ima Kommy, FL - and the “Rep.” is there to fool you into implying Republican.
Most “human trafficking” is in underage Asian girls for prostitution.
Well, of course, with those photos, she is clearly not guilty of anything. ;)

To me, this is the most important part of this. He was doing it for money. He needs to go to jail for a long time.

But you know, drugs are benign, they don’t hurt anyone but the user...blah blah blah....

I still live in Boyd’s district; you have him pegged.
I've spoken to him a few times.... he's a conservative... but Boyd is viewed as being impossible to defeat..... plus the district demographics aren't good for a conservative. But check Mulligan out... he's good!!
I believe they did in the second sentence.
But at least he’s not pregnant!

Maybe both do.
If this has been a Republican’s son - it would have been mentioned in the headline or the first paragraph. Bias is a form of bigotry.
Sorry. You misunderstood me, likely I was in a Rush as usual. I was commenting on the amount of media reaction to Sarah’s daughter’s pregnancy as compared to this pondscum’s mess.
The whole story makes me ill.
Please see my other reply. I was in a hurry and ineloquent in my response, My apologies.
Thanks for the insult, I thought it charming.
Unfortunately, it won’t get any better on November 5.
It will either be ugly or very ugly.
It’s gonna be BEYOND Fugly!
