A Republican candidate for the Massachusetts House says he won't apologize after attacking a student survivor of the Parkland, Fla., school shooting, calling David Hogg a "communist pig."
Ron Beaty has been tweeting about Hogg........................
The county commissioner in Barnstable, Mass., called the teenager "an absolute idiot," "a two bit punk" and a "self-promoting opportunistic rat" in the past week.
"I agree with Ted Nugent," Beaty tweeted Wednesday. "#DavidHogg is brainwashed. It's tragic and he probably can't be fixed, a lost cause."
Beaty also retweeted several pictures of Hogg being compared to Adolf Hitler, an increasingly common attack against the high school student by members of the far-right.
.............................
A vocal supporter of President Trump and the National Rifle Association, Beaty cannot own a gun himself because of his 14-month conviction for threatening to kill former President George H.W. Bush in the early 1990s.
