Indiana state Rep. Phillip Hinkle (R) is embroiled in controversy after The Indianapolis Star discovered emails appearing to solicit the paid company of a young man, sent from Hinkle's publicly listed email address.
In response to a M4M forum Craigslist post, Hinkle emailed the man, named Kameryn Gibson, and offered him $80 cash, with a tip of $50 or $60 "for a really good time" in the hours he proposed spending together at a local Marriott.
Gibson, whose ad lists him as 20 years old but is actually 18, said he met Hinkle at the hotel, and tried to leave when Hinkle said he was a state politician.
According to Project Vote Smart, Hinkle is against same-sex marriage, and carries the endorsement of the National Rifle Association. Hinkle, 64, has been in state legislature since 2000 and co-authored a bill to create a license plate inscribed with "In God We Trust."
TVNL Comment: Wow, an anti-gay Republican...who is gay...what a surprise. Who would have thought? Is anyone keeping count of these guys? It is astonishing how many there are...and if you included the Christian clergy...holy cow! Maybe we can set up a spreadsheet to calculate the numbers...no pun intended;-) You know...there are enough of these stories to make them into a drinking game...whenever a right wing anti-gay person gets caught in a same sex or pedo-sexual situation, you take a drink. We would all be hung over by morning!
