An O’Keefe hidden camera video exposes a prominent gay rights leader who says Pryor has told her he supports gay marriage:
DAILY MAIL – ‘I support traditional marriage, and I’ve been pretty clear on that for a long time,’ Sen. Mark Pryor said in a May 31 news broadcast on KHBS-TV40 in the city of Fort Smith.
But one of the state’s prominent gay rights leaders told an undercover investigator with Project Veritas Action, a conservative group known for its ‘gotcha’ videos, that Pryor has assured gay marriage advocates he’s on their side.
‘If you tell anyone I told you that, I’m gonna find you, and I’ll kill you,’ the activist, Bailey Rae Bibb, says in the video after confiding in the hidden camera-wearing covert operative.
Bibb leads the Stonewall Caucus of the Young Democrats of Arkansas. She spoke to a man posing as a gay man who said his wealthy partner was considering making a large donation to support Pryor’s reelection effort.
‘I’m having some misgivings about it, given his marriage stance,’ he tells her.
Bibb replies while Pryor is ‘not going to openly come out and say, “Oh yeah, I support it”,’he changes his position ‘if you ask him personally, just people-to-people.’
Asked if she has personally had that conversation with the senator, Bibb explains, ‘Oh, yeah,’ adding that Pryor had told her ‘I’m not against’ gay marriage equality and that he is ‘not going to outlaw it.’
‘He said to a small group, like, “Hey, you know, I’m not going to try to outlaw it, you know. I don’t think you should be discriminated against”,’ Bibb says on camera.
‘No, he’s not a bad person.’
