Any politician whether it be state or federal anywhere in the Commonwealth of Australia must respect the rights of the LGBTIQA + community. When you publicly attack and victimise people (Whether its vulgar or not) you must face the consequences. 

Whats at stake here is the blatant intent of the statement to harm, ridicule, offend & condone the villification and predujice against the LGBTIQA + community! 

Politicians are allowed to have there opinions but when it so blatantly is targeted against an idividual and community for their sexual preference, in such disgusting terms and obvious malice, then this politician should not hold office at any level! 

In summary our community has endured bigger bullies and biggots than you Mr. Latham over the years but as a politician your remarks are extremely dangerous!
