Were you conservatives really born yesterday?

The only party that has ever fought successfully for for the LGBT community is the Democratic Party. The Republican Party has fought tooth and nail against LGBTs for decades, and even currently is fighting to block progress and to protect people who want to discriminate against LGBTs based on religion.

It is unbelievable that conservatives think that LGBTs "do better" with Republicans. You are fooling yourselves only.

Conservatives I guess fail to realize that LGBTs are not afraid of Muslims, but instead feel solidarity with them and other oppressed minority groups, because we all know what it is like to be demonized and attacked by the racist and homophobic Right. While conservatives don't know how NOT to demonize minority groups, the minority groups have been banding together and supporting each other.

"This is a time for the Muslim and LGBT communities to not merely stand together but to deepen their understanding of each other, to recognize their common interests, and to acknowledge their shared members."

I think Hillary is one of the most despicable human beings on the face of the earth, but I think she was lying before re supporting DOMA, and that her current support for SSM is quite possibly the ONLY thing she is telling the truth about.

Don't listen to the un-American's from the democratic party. If you support obama and clinton, you are supporting the end of America..
Stick to your guns, we shall overcome...
I wish I had your faith. I'm an ABH - Anyone But Hillary person, but unfortunately I think she is going to win in one of the biggest landslides in U.S. history.

And only one of the two losers defended the rapist of a 12 year old girl and then laughed about it....and that loser was NOT Trump.

You have that exactly backwards. Obama, Hillary, and the Dems are all about aiding and abetting Muslim immigrants. The penalty for being LGBT is DEATH in most Muslim countries in the world. Do LGBTs really want to import even more of that systemic belief into the US? Seriously?

Democratic party pets butt heads all the time, but they'll still stick with the Democrats. As Michael Savage said, liberalism is a mental disorder.

Looks like Trump is trying to ratchet it down to 1% ...

Quote:
Robert Jeffress, a pastor from Dallas known for his anti-LGBT sentiment, shared a photo in which he posed with Trump at the candidate’s rally at Gilley's, the city's famous honky-tonk.

The First Baptist Church pastor in February 2015 was quoted as saying the gay rights movement “will pave the way for that future world dictator, the Antichrist, to persecute and martyr Christians without any repercussions whatsoever.”

PS - 'the Antichrist'? What sort of cartoon-world do these people live in? Oh, right -- the sort of cartoon-world where Donald Trump should be President...

What contortions you have to go through to try to appear pro-LGBT. It isn't working.

You act like LGBTs never faced discrimination or death at the hands of conservatives before the Orlando shooting. You are trying to make it all about the Muslims but it ain't. Clearly you know nothing about LGBT history.
