You needed a pollster to count how many times he said "hell."
But one thing was for sure John Kasich was getting real during a town hall Monday night.
In the event televised by CNN, the Ohio governor and presidential candidate asked "what the hell" was happening in the U.S. after Mississippi passed a law allowing businesses to deny services to gay and transgender customers.
"I read about this thing they did in Mississippi, where apparently you can deny somebody service because they're gay?" Kasich said. "What the hell are we doing in this country?"
Kasich said while he may not choose that lifestyle, it doesn't mean he has to "go write a law and try to figure out how to have another wedge issue."
The governor also told CBS News last weekend that he would not have signed North Carolina's bathroom law, which designates bathrooms for people based on their biological sex.
But most of his home state of Ohio already has laws that allow businesses to refuse service to gay or transgender people, according to ABC News.
"While some cities and counties in Ohio prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity, no similar statewide protection exists there," the station reported.
Kasich dodged a question earlier in the day about conversion therapy, a controversial treatment banned in multiple states that attempts to change someone's gender identity or sexual orientation, ABC reported.
The governor instead talked about gay marriage and said, while he personally does not agree with it, he thinks it's time to move on now that the Supreme Court has guaranteed it as a right, according to the station.
[Kasich] "I read about this thing they did in Mississippi, where apparently you can deny somebody service because they're gay?" Kasich said. "What the hell are we doing in this country?"
When all else fails, Kasich can read the actual law.
'What the hell are we doing in this country?': Did John Kasich just defend LGBT rights?
The law being compained about have nothing to do with gay rights. The issue is wher people should be compelled to perform acts that could be interpreted as approval or enabling to the gay life style. The design and creation of gay wedding cakes is an example. I don't expect myself to start to undergo inspection and asked at supermarkets whether I am homosexual, homophobe or straight. The cans are on the shelves. Anyone walk in and can buy them.
Kasich said while he may not choose that lifestyle, it doesn't mean he has to "go write a law and try to figure out how to have another wedge issue."
He just flat-out came out and admitted he is a bi-sexual. No one else has a choice.
I think we would all be shocked if we knew the true number of bi-sexuals or homosexuals in powerful positions in government that are being blackmailed.

Why is democracy held in such high esteem when its the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012)

In what guilt-twisted world do you live in where "not attacking for no reason" to be the same as defending?
Only you claim there are a higher % of faggots in population than there really is.
An outright lie. How and why would I claim such a ridiculous thing when I neither know nor care how many there are? Unlike you,they ain't in my dating pool.
Only you had a strange fascination with the site token faggot, Meguro.
Which one of us was tracking him around like a love-lorn puppy? The answer is "YOU,Princess!" I responded to his pings,YOU were the one seeking him out.
Only you use as a defense that other people must be faggots when they bring to light all the facts I just listed.

Stone created the crap that GI spews. Everyone knows it but GI himself. They are both an ignorant lot of louses for spreading lies, rumour, gossip and exagerrated innuendoe; it is all intended to drive you off this puny chit-chat channel, like they did to Fred. Why are they like this?

We don't like counter culture anti American faggots. They can all go get aids and that would be fine by me.
You have claimed some sort of bragging status on LF about your 50,000 primers that are all polished every month with Brasso and a spit shine to keep them from being corroded in your mom's humid basement.
Do you test them once all done? I hear you tap dance with them on the bottom of your boots.
Ever so often I allow the firing pin of any one of the guns in my arsenal to strike one I've seated in a resized shell. I haven't been let down yet, Commie Sanders lover.
I'm the infidel... Allah warned you about. كافر المسلح
Occasionally, I'll photocopy black and white pictures of Commie Sanders, that whore KILLary or even Ron Paultard... and I'll hang um up at 125 yards... and pretend they are black lives matters protesters.

We know all about your illusions, GI. Keep up the good work you are convincing to anyone other than your mom or your kids you still walk across the boulevard to the elementary school.
