A transgender lawmaker, a man dressing as a woman, in Montana recently was ordered silenced by his fellow lawmakers after verbally assaulting Republican members by charging they have "blood on their hands" if they oppose body mutilating surgeries for children.
Now a report in the Daily Mail pointed out that the lawmaker, Zooey Zephyr, tried to ignore that order and speak on the issue on Monday.
And when his microphone was turned off, he took a path often used by Democrat activists these days: he let his supporters disrupt the legislative body with chants of "Let her speak!"
The Daily Mail said Zephyr and his supporters blocked legislative action for nearly half an hour "in protest of Republican lawmakers denying her requests to speak on a proposal that would restrict when children can change the names and pronouns they use in school and require parental consent."
Seven of Zephyr's supporters were arrested, booked and released.
WND reported when he first unleashed hate speech against fellow legislators, hoping they would see "blood on their hands" when they pray.
The result was an order that he not speak on legislative issues until an apology is delivered.
The Gateway Pundit reported the discipline for Zephyr follows a call in the legislature for his censure.

The Gateway Pundit reported, "The lawmaker had claimed that Republicans would have 'blood on their hands' if they supported a bill to ban sex change surgeries and potentially-sterilizing hormone treatments for minors."
Zephyr said, "This body should be ashamed. If you vote yes on this bill and yes on these amendments, I hope the next time there’s an invocation, when you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands."
Now Montana House Speaker Matt Regier has confirmed there are plans to "not recognize" Zephyr to speak on any bill until an apology is made for the lack of decorum, the report explained.
The Republican Party of Montana is refusing to allow me—a transgender Representative—to speak on any bill. This is fundamentally undemocratic.

The Freedom Caucus said the comments were inappropriate and called for a censure for "attempting to shame the Montana legislative body and by using inappropriate and uncalled-for language."
The Daily Mail reported law enforcement had to clear the Montana House gallery because of the "insurrection" by supporters of Zephyr, a Democrat from Missoula.
Republican lawmakers called the interruption both an "insurrection" and a "riot."
Zephyr later described her supporters' decision to interrupt the legislature and block the democratic process of lawmaking as "defending democracy."
Regier said, "Today's riot by far-left agitators damages our discourse and endangered legislators and staff. Their actions did not represent Montana values."
Montana, like other states, has been working recently to institute laws that would protect children from body mutilations that are involved in transgender treatments and surgeries.
Lawmakers also want to limit sports teams to those of the same sex, meaning boys who portray themselves as girls would not be allowed on girls teams.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Although millions of American parents send their precious children off to public school every day, imagining their kids’ days will be filled with reading, writing, arithmetic, science, history, sports and music, they’re not only in for a shock – but for total BETRAYAL. Today’s “public” (government) schools have become far-left ideological, political and religious indoctrination centers aimed at reprogramming and transforming America’s children.
Kids are being taught to HATE their own country and to see themselves and their parents as racists – or victims of racists. They are sexualized and corrupted, and many are groomed into the dark LGBT world, with almost 6,000 schools prohibiting parents from even hearing about their child’s transgender “transition.” In between all the far-left indoctrination and sexual corruption, teachers take time to scare children to death about the near-term end of life on earth due to “catastrophic climate change.” Another lie. But it’s all classic Marxism/communism, with even the “3 R’s” – reading, writing and arithmetic – now being corrupted with “woke,” “1984”-style madness.
Perhaps never has the true threat of today’s U.S. public school system been exposed as in the sensational April issue of WND’s critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, titled “THE GREATEST BETRAYAL: How Marxism and madness have taken over America’s public school system.” Whistleblower is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
