During a heated city council meeting, South Carolina Mayor Curtis Boyd faced backlash after echoing an antigay slur in response to a resident's challenge.
Boyd attempted to justify his use of the slur by claiming ignorance of its meaning, saying, 'I don't even know what that word means.'
Councilwoman Elaine Reed condemned Boyd’s remarks, suggesting he should have focused on addressing the accusations against him rather than responding with inappropriate comments.
Despite the laughter from the audience, Boyd's comments have been criticized as unprofessional and offensive, highlighting the need for sensitivity in public office.
