Those Wacky Heterosexuals

Anti-Porn Super-Het Ronda Storms Emails Vagina Close-Up

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Florida’s viciously anti-gay Hillsborough County Commissioner [now a Florida State Senator] Ronda Storms got lots of “colorful” e-mail after she launched another sexuality oriented campaign, this time against obscenity on public access television. When she got an email the morning of April 11 — with a sexually explicit photo attached — she decided to share it with fellow commissioners.

With no pre-emptive warning, except the message, “For your information — we received this e-mail this morning. Please contact our office if you should have any questions,” heterosexual Christian supremacist Storms forwarded the email to each of the 11 other aides on the floor.

As The St. Petersburg Times describes it, “Throughout the neighboring offices at County Center came a domino-tumbling reaction of gasps, sighs and cries of shock as commissioners’ aides opened their e-mail.”

Republican Storms may have violated county policy, or even broken the law by distributing what she herself considers obscene material.

Commission Chairwoman Pat Frank was not amused. “I think for her to share that with staff … without any warning, is really not consistent with Ronda’s position in terms of not exposing people to illicit material without their consent. Frank’s aide, Carol LePierre, got the forwarded email titled “My picture.”
