Maybe you find them worse because you simply don't like them but obnoxious people don't have to belong to a specific gender or sexual orientation. Claiming gay people want to kill you is beyond stupid. Let me remind you that no gay person has ever committed a hate crime against a homophobic. They same is not true for homophobics, who constantly assault gays just for being gay, many who claim to be "Christian"
I'm not going to continue to argue with you except to say I've known some of these far left gay activists. You can call me stupid, it doesn't change my life experiences with them. They are just as bigoted and hateful as anyone straight. The Westboro church is as extreme as you can get on the right side. I never said they are far worse than that so called church. Sicko's are both far left and far right and ugly on both sides of the political spectrum.

"Indonesia: Police Raids Foster Anti-Gay Hysteria"

And of course theres the wonderful iran:

"IRAN EXECUTES GAY TEENAGER IN VIOLATION OF INTERNATIONAL LAW"

On the other hand:
Peter Thiel, Gay Republican, gets standing Ovation at Republican National Convention

Im not sure what you are arguing here, that Republicans have taken a step in the right direction, I agree.


we are only 20 years removed from having our first out Republican in elected office, we are less than 10 passed when the Republican Party fired its chairman for being a closeted gay man, be are less than 4 years since having the first currently elected Republican support same sex marriage.

As your own linked video says, the party still supports conversion therapy, and Traditional marriage(in that it would support a constitutional amendment if it ever came up)

in short, fight another day =/= support

I guess this went over your head.

Many in the gay community have this ridiculous hatred for Trump because he is supposedly ant-gay. But they think Hillary is just great.

I was pointing out that the Clinton Foundation takes money from countries where people are killed just for being gay as it against the law.

Was it that hard to follow?

They may not kill you but they sure as hell would like to. Been there.......
^THIS!!!

Plus....you can't really ask them what's up their azz cause.....well...you know

But your logic is that it makes Clinton anti gay, that is the part that is hard to follow.

especially since Donald Trump himself has done direct business with those nations to profit him personally, where as Clinton and the foundation were using those donated funds to to give out aids medicine in Africa, and in partnership with the State Department and SBA, help women start small businesses would wide.

So yes, it is hard to follow your logic.

No, I'm saying if gay people are going to dislike Trump is anti gay, than also look at what the Clintons did in regards to taking money from countries where people are killed for being gay. Don't give them a pass or pretend they didn't do this. Understand?

I'm no Trump fan, I don't think either Trump or Clinton were good choices.

Maybe this will help.

You have two friends, one you found out was talking constantly behind your back to other people, so you decided you could no longer be friends.

Another one you let stay at your house because they're down on their luck, they leave after a couple of months, and you find out they stole from you.

Neither is a friend, but you give the second one a pass.

Saying all that, I still don't like him due to his personality.

Grueber was right. Americans are idiots and have very short memories.
The RNC Convention had Rainbow Flags everywhere.

Whoever the Charlotte Pride decision maker was is a numbskull. The gay people I know wouldn't care.
