Thanks .
I'm a Gay Activist, and After Orlando, I Have Switched My Vote to Trump
I'm also sad that the events of Orlando have shattered my political beliefs, as I can no longer swear allegiance to a peace-love-and-unicorns progressive philosophy that only helps to get my fellow queers killed. Yes, there is a war between religious fundamentalism and the spirit of love and tolerance. But we progressives here in America still labor under the delusion that the religion we need to combat is Christianity. But that's a strawman opponent, and has been so for decades. Since the 1990s, Christian extremists have essentially lost all their power, and are now toothless nonplayers in the "culture wars." Meanwhile, Muslim extremists, with guns, murder us, and on the left our only response is to bleat about "Islamophobia" and jump through hoops trying to explain away the self-evident religious motivation for the killings...

When you've lost the tailgunner vote, you've lost the election.

We, means more than one and a group. If true, thank you Phoenix LGBT's. I hope you won't be disappointed.

I'm much more scared of Muslim extremists entering the country and ones already here becoming radicalized than I ever have been of any gay person I've seen, known in person or on tv and some "don't look like what I am used to." I hope I can be more loving and tolerant towards them unless and until they give me reason not to.

But it's the Democrats who have been their champion more than the right. Or my perception such as we don't produce political ads showing them holding hands, etc. And so the left would have had you believe. And I don't blame the left for failing to change Muslim hearts toward gays but I do blame them for attempting to stifle the truth about how many Muslim countries treat gays and how they will treat them here if, God forbid, Islam ever gets their caliphate or Sharia law in the US.

It slipped out that most gay clubs have closed in London, maybe it was Steyn or someone who called in, not sure if it is true.

That was a fake endorsement from a fake twitter account.
