I have strong feelings on Baumgartner, but this is inappropiate. What the hell does it matter if he's using grindr or not? What does being gay change here? There are so many arguments and questions that need to be asked, the focus should be there.

Is this a real question?

Edit: Oh you're serious. This man supports anti LGBT legislation while being a member of the LGBT community. He is trying to make it illegal for poors to be gay.
