Gay club owner: Shooting comes amid a new 'type of hate'

There is one political party that is responsible for this new(er) wave of homophobia. It equates homosexuality with incest, pedophilia and beastiality.

It attempts to enshrine discrimination against homosexuals on the basis of “religious freedom” (As a thought example, let’s imagine the reaction of most people if someone wanted to discriminate based on race, religious affiliation or left-handedness) to give the thin veneer or respectability to its hate.

And it now floods the public space its accusations of “grooming” against anyone who might empathize with adolescents struggling with sexual identity or advocating an age-appropriate discussion of gender and sexuality.

the GQP is responsible for the environment in which hate-based mass shootings occur because it has consciously NOT reprimanded prominent members who use these rhetorical tactics in order to energize the party’s extremist base.

It’s a feature, not a bug of the party the Republicans have become.

It turns out that the shooter identifies as non-binary, according to court filings by his defense attorneys.

Sorry, progressives. Your narrative is already beginning to crumble.

Not necessarily. The shooter may have been emotionally conflicted and made more so by the hateful and misleading rhetoric peddled by "conservative" media.

There's a lot of anti LGBTQ sentiment out there. That's a fact.

Not necessarily. The shooter may have been emotionally conflicted and made more so by the hateful and misleading rhetoric peddled by "conservative" media.

Yep, the fact that this shooter identifies as non-binary does nothing to deflect from the hate directed at the group in general and that this kid, who's dad was a violent homophobe experienced in particular. It might, MIGHT have driven him to this.

No, the only person and party responsible for what happened is the individual that took the lives of these people.

I think you have been watching too many lib shows, to even try and pin this on conservatives is just delusional, if anything no one beats the racist drum or exhausts the conversation of race and more than liberals. The forceful woke agenda didn’t start with conservatives.

And it now floods the public space its accusations of “grooming”

Which is very true.

against anyone who might empathize with adolescents struggling with sexual identity or advocating an age-appropriate discussion of gender and sexuality. 

The left doesn’t want to discuss the issue, it’s either society accepts them and everything they say or do without question or you’re a racist or homophobic

the GQP is responsible for the environment in which hate-based mass shootings occur because it has consciously NOT reprimanded prominent members who use these rhetorical tactics in order to energize the party’s extremist base. 

They are absolutely not responsible, what they are responsible for, is to make sure that our children grow up without being force-fed sexual propaganda without our consent, and the fact that so many teachers try to either groom or impose sexually explicit books for our kids to read is unacceptable and will not be tolerated and think goodness of parents are pushing back, this has nothing to do again with the situation, or with what does individual has done, you’re making excusesFor woke behavior that we just have to face value accept without question.

It’s a feature, not a bug of the party the Republicans have become.

Yes, the party of family values

Being gay is not a crime a mental issue or a moral failing.

And your party, attempts to equate discussion of sexuality with grooming, which it isn't unless it is in the fever dream of your cult.

So the law, modern psychology and every established Christian Church says that you are wrong. I will defer to them.

Sure. But that's not happening.

and the fact that so many teachers try to either groom or impose sexually explicit books for our kids to read is unacceptable and will not be tolerated

Also, not happening. And also, why do the right try to associate grooming with gay or trans people? As if there is some kind of link?

Being gay is not a crime a mental issue or a moral failing. 

No one said it is, relax.

And your party, attempts to equate discussion of sexuality with grooming,

Nope, that would be the left in trying to force down parents throats that their kids have to accept alternative lifestyles or else. This is why even liberal Democrats voted for a Republican like Youngkin to stop this nonsense. Leave the kids alone until they’re old enough to understand who they are sexually first without pushing or grooming them.

So the law, modern psychology and every established Christian Church says that you are wrong. I will defer to them.

How I raise my kids is not the schools business.

Sure. But that's not happening.

on the contrary, that is exactly what is, and that’s is why you are seeing so much pushback from parents across the country.

And also, why do the right try to associate grooming with gay or trans people?

Because that is what is happening across so many schools, you can deny it all you want, try and convince the other millions of parents that want this stopped. Again, there is a reason why the Dems lost the House, the voters sent a clear message, quit it!

There is zero evidence that being homosexual or transgender makes one more likely to engage in pedophelia. In fact the very fact that the Trump cult is raging about it makes me wonder if its supporters have something to hide.

What this really is about is about fear and hate and how fear and hate of homosexuals is being utilized by one party, the GQP to mobilize their low-information base. That is what this is about.

The father of the killer, himself a porn actor, was only too happy when he learned his son wasn't gay. That was his only concern.

There is zero evidence that being homosexual or transgender makes one more likely to engage in pedophelia.

then what is the effort in trying to force it on the masses?

In fact the very fact that the Trump cult is raging *

Not the Trump people, talk to the Democrats in WV that vote overwhelmingly Democrat, they feel the same, there just destroyed your argument.

What this really is about is about fear and hate

Again, then why so many liberals in many blue states feel the same as conservative parents? Second bomb attempt.
