The jerk who started this admits that Hurd is "one of the few lawmakers who get cyber(security)." We need more people like Hurd because he has a unique vision of how Tech effects government. This was a hit piece by people who fit the definition of "bigot." I'm pro choice, Hurd is pro life, we don't agree on that topic but I know his tech knowledge is extremely valuable especially since he used to be an undercover CIA agent!

Ok, to summarize, this Hurd guy likes to see women in pain, also thinks women does not have the right of choice over their bodies, nor have the right for stem degrees. What's your stake? Should we go back to the 19th century?

LOL. It's been a while since I've seen such a hard strawman.

This one here: "likes to see women in pain." "Should we go back to the 19th century?" ...because that's exactly what will happen if he ever managed to get up there and speak, right? Thank gods he was stopped!

Okay. This is getting a little ridiculous. The dude was invited because we have precious few allies in congress on our side who actually have a CS background, and some brilliant dipshits decided our best move was to give him a "F*ck you"? As if we have that many competent friends in congress to spare.

After watching the questions of Reps to sundar Pichai, including implying that Google operates like a call center where employees manually bring about results for such queries, anyone who thinks this Rep must be disinvited is a moron. He is Evil because he thinks unborn babies shouldn’t be killed, while those who think a baby minutes before birth can be killed or Not evil?
