NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A top Tennessee House Republican lawmaker has apologized for losing his temper and being ejected from watching a high school basketball game after a confrontation with a referee. The dustup included what appeared to be either a feigned or failed attempt at pulling down the official’s pants, according to video footage.that he “acted the fool tonight and lost my temper on a ref.”
“Emotions getting in the way of rational thoughts are never good. I hope to be able to find the ref and ask for his forgiveness. I was bad wrong.” The video feed shows Faison sitting in the stands before players hit the ground on a loose ball in the third quarter, spurring the referee’s whistle and a brief scuffle between the two teams.
Behold today's GOP: the party of God, law, order and safeguarding individuals' cherished right to pant someone you don't agree with.
OMG
Standard Republican politician behavior these days! How very very sad Americans and most of all our children have to see the decay of politics or more to the point the current Republican Party! How do we teach our children right from wrong in midst of such behavior!!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, he’s a dead man walking as Republicans never show any contrition, never apologize ever.
The jerk storm just keeps intensifying
…triad to pull down his pants?!
Typical Republican lawmaker… speak christianity but never practice what they preach!!!
Dude is anti-mask and apparently anti-pants now
Typical that a Republican assault a referee because of an outcome they didn't like.....
I have seen a few videos of this guy and this did not come from nowhere. He has an attitude. A problematic attitude. I’m glad he apologized, let’s see how far that goes.
Resign. Now.
It constitutes an assault, the perp should be charged. But because he is a white male politician from the right, he won't lose a cent, or any sleep. His victim should have knocked him out, tho...
