Members of the Missouri Republican Party have been widely condemned after they were filmed participating in a symbolic book burning at the St. Charles County Freedom Fest over the weekend.
State Senator Bill Eigel—a GOP candidate for the Missouri governorship who has pledged to burn books if elected—is seen on camera gleefully using a flamethrower to burn empty cardboard boxes while joined by State Senator Nick Schroer, highlighting what he would actually do to books if given the chance.
Eigel defended the video in a statement to the Kansas City Star, saying it’s symbolic of what he wants to do “to the leftist policies and RINO corruption of the Jeff City swamp.”
He added:
“But let’s be clear, you bring those woke pornographic books to Missouri schools to try to brainwash our kids, and I’ll burn those too – on the front lawn of the governor’s mansion.”
