I canât provide it. Can you? Suicide is not an effective measure of civil rights violations. There are many factors that go into it. Clinical depression being among them. On a personal note. Of the the 10 or 15 gay friends that I have, none of them complain of being bullied.
Do you think Trump supporters should face bullying?
It doesnât matter how many times you post this particular incident, or the hundreds of thousands like it - the blind will not see the simple truth that gays and lesbians enjoy their status as an open, celebrated and protected class whereas Trump supporters risk ridicule, harassment, and outright violence every day merely for a sign, hat, or bumper sticker. Itâs little wonder so few people answer the pollsters or interviewers correctly. Iâm willing to bet over 80% of Americans love and support Donald, but very few are willing to risk being destroyed for it.
The truth will out this November, when Donald wins by an even more massive landslide than the one he enjoyed in 2016.
It flourished under Reagan as Gov and as President.
Pete Wilson started the decay. He was terrible and dumb. The left saw a way to take advantage of Pete Wilson and trick him and promised him Community Care, which they said would cut the usual expense by more then 2/3 while creating scam care and let shifty scammers make huge amounts of money. All starting because Wilson would have an unimpeded view from his hilltop house.
What I was questioning was the suggestion that being a Trump supporter was more difficult than those who in the LGBTQ community. With respect to Trump supporters being bullied. I would suggest that it is far less consequential than what you imply. Certainly, watching some of Trumpâs rallies speak to the likelihood that if you are not a Trump supporter attending a Trump you are far more likely to be the one bullied rather than being the bully.
Itâs not an absurd premise at all. Unless of course you want to limit yourself to southwest Missouri. Drive into St. Louis with your Maga hat and Trump sticker. The odds are pretty good that someone will key your car, get in your face or both. You wouldnât know because conservative do not behave this way.
Nope. Iâm not interested in proving to you that Trump supporters face consequences. We know that we do. We live it every day. We know where we can speak freely and where we cannot. Convincing you of this, is not my priority.
I was just in St. Louis a couple of weeks ago and there were plenty of Trump bumper stickers around. Your premise is nonsensical. Besides, you stated, and I quoteâŚ
Anyone will probably have that car vandalized. Absurd is being kind.
You didnât simply say âTrump supporters face consequencesâ.
You made a definitive statement that they were at least as persecuted as, if not moreso, than gays.
You intimated they are so persecuted that a significantly large portion of the 63 million people that voted for Donald Trump have to hide their support for him even three years later
Nice attempt at shifting the goalposts though so you can once again come on and make a declarative statement and absolve yourself of any responsibility to back it up.
I think the fundamental problem with this question and this comparison, is that supporting Trump, or any politician, is a personal decision. Being gay is not a decision. You just are. And then also, if you think you need to keep your support of Trump secret, what does that say about Trump?
