A state senator said during a public forum in Tahlequah that LGBTQ+ people are “filth,” and that he and his constituents don’t want them in “our state.”

      What the fuck are you talking about? I don’t “want violence” I “wanted” examples of the type of thing I’m surprised isn’t happening. Fucking Lemmy. I’m not looking for an instrument

        You fucking want people to carry out hit jobs and beatings on politicians with no fucking regard whatsofuckingever to the the people of the community you fucking want to carry out those “targeted” violence. Lemmy’s not to blame for your being a fucking pussy and wanting other people to fuck their lives up and make queer people even easier to weaponise by republicans. What the fuck do you think would happen if a trans person took a shot at the orange cunt? I’ll tell you, it would lead both Dems and republicans going after trans people. Progress wasn’t fucking fought for decades to have it eroded by doing something so monumentally stupid as attacking republican politicians.

        As I said before it’s really fucking telling that you blame Lemmy and act hostile to me when you want queer people to carry out acts of violence without giving a single thought to what shit storm that would create.

          Wrong.

          For the last time you dullard: I was only pointing out it’s historically interesting that this particularly poorly treated group is so well behaved. The TYPE of well behaved I was referring to was not a riot. That’s it. You walked in here with a bunch of baggage, made assumptions, and wrote a bunch of crap. I’m not looking for anyone to do anything, only observing it’s fucking remarkable no one has.

          You are incapable of consuming an observation without injecting a value into it. Grow up.

          Here’s my original, if you forgot:

          "Blows my mind that there aren’t violent LGBT folks out there. I’m not advocating violence, but I’m impressed with the self control. " tell me, which word is me calling for violence? Which word is me wanting anyone to do something for me cause I’m a “pussy”?

            by saying “blows my mind” you’re saying that you think it should be the opposite: you’d expect it to be normal that LGBTQIA+ community would be violent. that expectation is a call, of sorts… like “wouldn’t surprise me if someone beat X”, you’re kinda giving someone permission

              Wrong you just made an assumption. You are assuming I think that would be right, when I was merely saying it wouldn’t be unexpected.
