Oh conservatives...After using n-word in front of black colleagues, Fla. state senator faces calls to resign
A Republican state senator from Miami is facing pressure to resign after he used the n-word to criticize several of his colleagues during an alcohol-fueled rant in front of two black lawmakers.
Over drinks at a private club in downtown Tallahassee, State Sen. Frank Artiles referred to six white senators as “n‑‑‑ers” and spewed other obscenities while complaining about the chamber’s GOP leadership, local media reported Tuesday.
In response, the Florida Democratic Party called on him to resign Tuesday night, saying his conduct was “disgusting, unacceptable and has no place in our democracy or our society.”
Artiles apologized for the remarks in a statement Tuesday provided to the Miami Herald.
Was it recorded? Howd it get out
