Transgender Day of Remembrance

Until a drag queen prances into a school and bludgeons to death a half a dozen kids with a copy of To Kill a Mockingbird, I suggest y'all might be focusing on the wrong issue here.*

It's funny, the very people who like to proclaim that other people's sexuality is no one else's business like to make a public display of celebrating other people's sexuality.

There are people who say they don't know anyone, much less are related to anyone, who is LGBTQ+. The reality is likely that they do. But, the LGBTQ+ people in their life see the hatred being spewed and choose not to endure the abuse.

Those of us with family who feel confident in being who they are know we will not shame or shun them and appreciate that we are clear about being allies. If that means flying a flag to show it, so be it. It sure does upset some folks. But, that is their problem.

What hatred is being spewed? (I am not saying that there is none, but I just want to know what you are talking about).

For example, do you feel that Matt Walsh is spewing hatred in his movie, "What is a woman" that went viral on twitter last night? If so, to whom is the hatred directed?

I'm reminded of Morgan Feeman on race, same applies here, "stop talking about it".

I my life I have only encountered <5 true racist!
I am sure there were others that I simply wasn’t aware of their true feelings. Point being is that there is no longer institutional racism and has not been in many decades. All we have these days is a relative handful of powerless individuals with hatred in their hearts,many more hateful liberals than racists

I know some racists. But I don't know anyone that hates LGBTQ people or would commit violence against them for just being themselves.

Maybe it's the fact that LGBTQ+ individuals are 9 times more likely to be the victims of a hate crime than non-LGBTQ+.

Maybe it's the fact that we have folks preaching intolerance and condemnation of LGBTQ+ individuals.

Maybe it's the fact that 40% of LGBTQ+ are rejected by their family or friends.

Exactly!
The only pushback is that the other than population just doesn’t want the LGB crowd personal lifestyle pushed into our lives.

Can you cite some examples? I am not saying there are none, but I am not seeing it.

Who is preaching intolerance of LGBTQ+ individuals?

This is the stupidest thing I've read all day (and on this website, that says a lot!)
How is a non-LGBTQBBQABCDEFG*+&^@ going to be a victim of a hate crime?
Clearly the member of a protected class is gonna have the edge here.

Most of that are very fringe groups that hardly represent mainstream USA. Like I said, I don't know anyone that hates gay people.

So, as long as YOU are oblivious to LGBTQ+ folks, they must not exist and certainly don't face the shit that the UCLA School of Law, Southern Poverty Law Center, and Pew Research found.

Gotcha.

Why are you making shit up? Who said they didn't exist?

Why do you deny LGBTQ+ people face hatred and discrimination?
