Rep. Will Hurd disinvited to cybersecurity conference after Pro-Life voting record draws outrage

[Fox] Rep. Will Hurd, R-Tex, will no longer be speaking at cyber security conference after critics expressed outrage over his voting record on women's issues.

Hurd, a former undercover CIA officer and an advocate for cybersecurity on Capitol Hill, was invited to speak at Black Hat, one of biggest cyber security conferences in the country, being held in Las Vegas in August. But Tech Crunch security editor Zach Whittaker highlighted on Thursday what he described was Hurd's "terrible voting record on women's rights." It includes voting against funding for Planned Parenthood, programs supporting women in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) fields, and his support on restricting late-term abortions.
But Hillary "wipe it? like with a cloth?" is still speaking

#3 A lot of hackers are anti-SJW (and anti-nanny in general) and pissing them off before a hacking convention seems like a really, really dumb move.

#5 Maybe they can bring in Bernie Sanders as a substitute speaker and he can deliver a lecture on surrendering all the private keys to your bitcoin to the state.
