‘The anointment of God’: Rep. Boebert’s July 4 rally speech was filled with Christian nationalismRight-wing QAnon conspiracy theorist and United States Representative Lauren Boebert (R-Colorado) on Friday asked the Twitter audience to explain to her why the law does not “require” LGBTQ+ Americans to wait until they are 21 years old to come out.
Boebert, a radically socially conservative high-school dropout who supports unfettered access to firearms, drew absurd parallels between LGBTQ+ identity struggles and established legal limitations on who can buy “alcohol beverages” and cigarettes. She also stated that sexuality is a choice, which it is not.
“We require people to be 21 to purchase alcohol beverages, and 21 to purchase tobacco products. Why is it so unreasonable to require people to reach a certain level of maturity before making life-altering decisions about their sexuality and identity?” Boebert posited.
We require people to be 21 to purchase alcohol beverages, and 21 to purchase tobacco products.

Why is it so unreasonable to require people to reach a certain level of maturity before making life-altering decisions about their sexuality and identity?The brutal responses that Boebert received were probably the opposite of what she had anticipated. Or maybe she just wanted to stir the pot. If so, mission accomplished.
Users tore into the freshman lawmaker’s disjointed bigotry.
While we are at it, why not the same thing to purchase and own firearms?

How about you start by staying out of people's bedrooms, and their lives❓🤨Why is it unreasonable to ask people to wear a mask in public during a pandemic?
— Lara reads banned books in Florida📚🇺🇸 (@MadeInTheUSANJ) April 1, 2022Interesting! Why is it reasonable that 16/17yr olds can acquire semi automatic weapons that could make them a potential mass shooter or mass murderer. They have not reached a certain level of maturity either (some never will) & that is surely a potential life altering choice! https://t.co/TFxBgtGl8b

— Pier Walker (@walkthepier) April 1, 2022
• Must be 21 to purchase alcohol beverages
• Must be 21 to purchase tobacco products
• Must be 21 to decide sexuality and identity
BUT⬇️
• Can be ANY age with ANY background and can buy ANY type of gun without question
Twisted.You married a guy who exposed himself to minors. Your decision-making skills haven't improved since then.

Why is it so unreasonable to require representatives to have a certain level of morality before making society altering decisions about anything at all?So Lauren, your children are how old? pic.twitter.com/LqMjiP1jX1
