Republican Ira William "Bill" McCollum, Jr.

"I really do not think that we should have homosexuals guiding our children. I think that it’s a lifestyle that I don’t agree with. I realize a lot of people do. It’s my personal faith, religious faith, that I don’t believe that the people who do this should be raising our children. It’s not a natural thing. You need a mother and a father. You need a man and a woman. That’s what God intended.".......Bill McCollum

No Criminal Charges Against Todd Schnitt

Hillsborough State Attorney Mark Ober
Will not file criminal charges against members of the WFLZ M.J. Morning Show.
Although the state fire marshal has been recommending Felony charges for seven months,
the state attorney decided not to go along. The incident involved a radio stunt where the morning show tried to fry a frozen turkey in a cooker full of oil that was in a van. A fire started and the Tampa Fire Department had to put it out.
