Roger Stone captions seemingly normal photo with a creepy sentiment.

Gab

Conservative lobbyist Roger Stone says he offered to freeze his sperm for right-wing activist Laura Loomer.

The Trump ally posted a photo online of he and Loomer smiling at an event along with a message that many found creepy.

In the caption he said he doesn’t have a biological heir, and the “freedom movement needs future warriors”.

“I am going to freeze some of my sperm in case Laura Loomer decides to bear my child sometime in the future.”

The post was added to his verified Gab account, which Stone uses due to his ban from most social media platforms, including Twitter.

Twitter users weighed in on the post, with actors Jane Lynch and Mark Hamill tweeting vomit emojis in response.

Despite backlash, Stone doubled down and posted another photo of the pair to his Gab account with the caption: “Here is a headline you will never see ‘Laura Loomer announces her intention to carry Roger Stone’s baby invitro and convert to be a Methodist’”. Stone concluded the post with a crying face emoji.

The photo shows Stone and Loomer holding up shirts that say “Laura Loomer Did Nothing Wrong” and “Roger Stone Did Nothing Wrong”.

Stone was notoriously commuted by former president Donald Trump last year, avoiding prison time for committing seven felony crimes. Loomer has been banned from most social media platforms, mobile apps, and events for promoting anti-Muslim hate speech.

The “sperm” sentiment is particularly gross given that Stone’s wife, Nydia, is currently battling stage IV cancer.
