Summary
LGBTQ Americans are deeply concerned about Donald Trump’s second term, citing his anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, policies, and ties to conservative groups like the Heritage Foundation.
His past actions and campaign ads targeting trans individuals have raised fears of eroding healthcare access, legal protections, and rights, especially for transgender people.
Trump’s alignment with the Project 2025 agenda, which promotes rolling back LGBTQ rights, heightens anxiety, despite his appointment of an openly gay treasury secretary.
Advocates warn of significant societal and legal repercussions.
I’m definitely feeling this… My partner and I hate firearms but are looking into getting armed now
Make sure you take training, for safety, usage, and firearm law. People who merely own guns are likely to have negative outcomes.
We’re planning on taking safety courses, and my dad is a gun nut who will happily take us to a range
What a messed up country where you have to arm yourself to feel free. Ridiculous.
Trust me it’s not too feel free. The illusion of freedom has long since vanished.
Do it. Do it before January 20. My wife just bought her first gun and I’m getting a rifle.
And what the fuck is up with the gay Treasury Secretary. This post was the first I heard of it. What a traitor. I mean I guess they’re all traitors of some sort but damn.
Please get ammo and go to the range. I work at a gun store, trust me, your hypothetical, alleged, enemy, has been armed, and has many hundreds/thousands of rounds downrange. Get proficient.
Edit: also if that rifle happens to be an AR-15, I work more specifically at a custom AR shop, so please hit me with any possible questions either now, or the future!
That’s very kind but I’m going to get a Zastava M70 N-PAP AK.
I already own a 9mm and a 12 gauge short barrel pistol grip pump.
