Senator calls LGBTQ+ people 'filth,' says most don't want them here

Sadly,many of these new Nazis are the grandchildren of the people who fought the original Nazis.

No more of this forgiveness "healing" buttpat bullshit America loves to do with its internal enemies.

End every nazi. Give every apologist life in prison. Ban all nazi/MAGA/confederate iconography and treat anyone found with it as enemies of the state and treat them as such.

We can't just keep forgiving them every time they fuck around then shocked Pikachu when they take another swing. Crush them.

That will involve armed liberals confronting these animals on the streets. Don't see that happening. If they want to march in my town, I'll be front and center. And I will start shit. What are they gonna do? Kill me in a firefight?

Easy for me to say in my weird space. I'm middle-aged, had a pretty great life, all in all. Also got little kids, I'd rather die than see them grow up in a fascist state. I'd count it a win if I take 2-3 of 'em first. Show that we'll fight back.

Y'all do as you like. But don't come crying "No more guns!" when the fascists start up the trains.

My plan is to boldy say something snarky right before getting shot and hope someone films it so I can be turned into a meme before everything collapses. (In actuality my mental health is way too poor to keep a gun in easy access. Maybe a crossbow or something would be better for me, or I could get a proper medic bag and help that way)

Always the same bullshit pro-gun comments pushing minorities to buy guns, but never telling them who they're supposed to shoot and how it's supposed to help.

If just owning a gun stops this, why is it happening? Why is it happening more often in America compared to countries with stricter gun laws?

If those guns need to be used, who are we shooting and when? This senator? Police? Trump? The far-right would be thrilled. They could open fire on anybody wearing rainbows and claim "I feared for my life" because the second amendment does far more to enable scumbags and extremists than it does to save minorities.

I'm on your side on this one (and I know we don't always agree). I'm not really sure why people are downvoting other than maybe being confused about your message? I took your meaning to be to encourage folks to train, prep and be ready to fight.

Could be the 2A comments drawing downvotes, but good people will need to fight fire with fire, unfortunately.

Using religion as a basis to change laws is what they do. It's why they were threatened, under the penalty of death, by most of the countries in Europe, to leave. Everybody was sick of their shit. Imagine a massive group of Marjorie Taylor Greens. That is what sailed to America. Imagine being a Native American, living your best life, and that is what shows up on your shores.

This narrative that Christians left to "avoid religious persecution" was started by, you guessed it, the Christians, who are always the "victims" even when they themselves initiated the problem. The truth is, they came here so they could continue to persecute others. How many infected blankets did they hand out to the natives, knowing it would kill them? They have always been terrible people. Always.

The founding fathers were not even Christians, they were deists. At that time, just like today, you can't make a law without including the Christians or they'll destroy society. They have to be getting talked about favorably or they kill everyone around them; the inquisition, the Nazis, etc... All done by Christians. And yet we made them a federally protected class. For what? What warrants that? They aren't threatened. They're not a minority class, that is to say, not a small number of the population... They have churches seemingly on every corner in every city and town in the country. Everyone else has to be protected from them.

And one of the lesser, yet still egregious tactics that they use is to have prayer meetings at public schools and at jobs. I've lived in the South my entire life and almost every place I've ever worked, there's been a morning meeting where somebody prays at the end.

We, as a society, need to reevaluate the need to list religion as a protected class, because let's face it, the Christians think their religion is the only one that meets that criteria. They are nothing but a federally defended terrorist group.

The reason the riots were successful?

Be like water.

They used guerrilla tactics to out maneuver the police. They did not present a stationary target.

That's mindless violence. I was thinking much more focused.

Edit cause people can't think:

I'm discussing history, not calling for, or advocating anything.

I'm not calling for violence, I was remarking that it's interesting how poorly treated lgbt folks are and how well behaved they are in comparison.

A riot, especially one from many years ago, is not the historical anecdote I was alluding to. The fact that a riot from decades ago was linked to me proves my point.

Lastly, riots are mindless. It's what a crowd does when anger boils over (as someone said to me) rather than the exact opposite, which is planned, calculated, etc.

I'm not devaluing those affected by the shit that was happening prior to stonewall. I'm saying it's remarkable that a riot happen instead of people hunting down the cops that were targeting them.

Offense is the best defense 🧐

Your math is wrong, it's closer to 60/10/30, with the problem being that the 30% all live around each other (and are good at gerrymandering)

I honestly think their intent is to just make their states completely uninhabitable to anyone who isn't a white supremacist. If they can do that with a swing state or at least states that have a significant blue presence, they effectively take the entire government nationwide. They just need to make their policies so completely repulsive to anyone who isn't them that we stay clear.

Of voters. The vast majority of American people are against This, but the vast majority of American people don’t vote. 

This is what keeps us in check. If you’re busted by the overly militarized police you will also likely lose the job that you can’t afford to lose, you will go deep into debt, become homeless; which in most states is illegal and you’ll end up in jail.

When I was a younger person, I attended some protests. Then I saw many get broken up by the police, and many people arrested for trivial reasons. Eventually it became less and less worth it.

America, it’s law enforcement and most of the population values property over people. The owning class in America own the police, write the laws and vote R.

And when you're one paycheck away from living on the streets and the threat of state sanctioned violence or detention could get you fired.

Read again, I said nothing about the LGBTQ+, and didn't imply I feel that way either.

They didn't wish I'll to this guy. They promised to defend themselves from him.
