Aussie Senate Hopeful Wendy Francis’ Homophobic Twitter Typos

Wendy Francis, the would-be Australian senator representing the noble but ridiculous sounding Family First party, wants to get elected this way: by taking to Twitter to insist, sans argument, “Children in homosexual relationships are subject to emotional abuse. Legitimising gay marriage is like legalizing child abuse,” and, “Australia would never recover from legalising gay marriage. Those who advocate this are not thinking of the dramatic consequences.” She’s since deleted the messages but acknowledged she wrote them herself. Also, Mr. Francis insists she’s not homophobic, and I believe this because I read it on her Twitter.
