What did he say?
Caputo kicked open the door to the chamber during a prayer, a doorkeeper was reportedly injured as a result.
During Saturday morning’s floor session, he apologized to the full House of Delegates. He also met privately with the Speaker and the Republican caucus.
Caputo said he would like to apologize to the doorkeeper in the presence of Speaker Hanshaw. He called it “probably the stupidest thing I’ve ever done in my political career.”

Well, probably should have kept his emotions in check, but truth is, things are going to get kicked when you fight the good fight against racism and bigotry.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia’s top-ranking Republican, Senator Shelley Moore Capito, says there’s no place for the kind of anti-Muslim display that was part of a “GOP Day” at the state Legislature.
“I deplore what happened, and I hope that lessons learned,” Capito said while at the state Capitol on Saturday.

The West Virginia Republican Party issued a statement Saturday morning condemning the display.
“The West Virginia Republican Party does not approve, condone, or support hate speech,” stated Melody Potter, the state GOP chairwoman.
“One of the exhibitors at our West Virginia Republican Party Day at the Capitol displayed a sign that we did not approve, were not aware of before the day started, and we do not support. Upon learning about the sign, we immediately asked this exhibitor to remove the sign.”
Potter continued, “Our party supports freedom of speech, but we do not endorse speech that advances intolerant and hateful views. We have shown that when West Virginians are united, when we respect each other, embrace our differences and focus on moving our state forward what we can accomplish.”

But yet the display was up for quite some time. I call BS.

West Virginia Senate President Mitch Carmichael, R-Jackson, issued his own statement of condemnation of the display on Friday evening.
“We must be strong in our resolve to stand up and speak out against fear and hatred when we see it, and we absolutely condemn the kind of behavior that was on display in our own state Capitol. It is hateful and wrong. Above all, it is not representative of the values that the vast majority of West Virginians hold dear. We,
as a state, are far better than what we saw today.”

Did they ask the lady to remove the poster from the premises? An apology is good....and a start....

Headline is a lie. He was mocking a disabled reporter, not the disability. I’ve posted the video evidence of him making the same gesture throughout the campaign numerous times when referring to snowflake like behavior.
