Conservative talk radio host Chris Baker took some heat yesterday for saying “You know what [the WBNA] is? That’s a place for lesbians to make out when they score.” Baker is carried by KTLK, Minneapolis-based Clear Channel station.

In April, he suggested police should use machine guns against people protesting the Republican National Convention:

“So we’ve been talking about police protection during the upcoming convention when all those stinky protesters are coming. There seems to be a big debate over whether or not police officers will be able to wear helmets, carry shields, use pepper spray and Tasers on this crowd. You know, I’ll tell you what works on a crowd like this — a machine gun, that always works very well.”

Baker’s co-host, “Jordan,” agreed: “Mow ‘em down, baby!” he added.

KSTP asked the Minnesota Lynx, Minnesota’s WNBA franchise, for a comment. A spokester for the team said “the WNBA is comprised of educated women who have achieved a level of success on the court,” and invited Baker to attend a game. KSTP also asked some guy named Cordell Nichols about Baker’s comment who made an astute observation: “It’s hard for women already and to say something like that just sets them back further.”
