Wingnut of the Day: Jonathan Stickland

Texas State Representative Jonathan Stickland (R) identifies himself as a former fetus. Stickland's bio states his anti-choice beliefs.

Jonathan is adamantly pro-life and believes it is part of the government’s role to protect the unborn lives of children. He was honored to help author House Bill 2, which restricted abortions after 20 weeks, and made abortion clinics adhere to stricter rules that protect Texas women. This was a huge victory for the pro-life movement and Jonathan was proud to be a part of it.

Stickland took to Twitter when his sign was taken down.

My #prolife sign was just ripped down by @charliegeren #txlege

What Stickland failed to understand was that his sign broke the rules of the Texas legislature.

Signs are not allowed to be posted in the walls of the building they were removed and placed in the office of the members

What is a former fetus to do when he can't hang his sign?
