LGBTQ+ Americans are under attack, Human Rights Campaign declares in state of emergency warning
The Associated Press ^ | June 6, 2023

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Human Rights Campaign declared a state of emergency for LGBTQ+ people in the U.S. on Tuesday and a released “a guidebook for action” summarizing what it calls discriminatory laws in each state, along with “know your rights” information and health and safety resources.

Sounding the alarm about the current political environment, the nation’s largest organization devoted to the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer Americans said advisories warning against travel to dangerous places aren’t enough to help people already living in so-called hostile states.

The guidebook aims to help millions of vulnerable people, “whether they’re planning summer travel through regions that are becoming increasingly hostile to LGBTQ+ people, or whether they already live in a state where legislative assaults and political extremism are continuing to put a target on our backs,” Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign, said in a statement.

The emergency declaration is the first in the 40-year history of the HRC, and comes as Republican-dominated legislatures around the country have passed bills targeting people based on their identities, including laws restricting various aspects of transgender existence, from pronoun usage and bathroom access to medical care and more.

Among the latest, one of a series of bills nearing final passage in Louisiana would broadly ban K-12 public school employees in Louisiana from discussing sexual orientation or gender identity in the classroom. The legislation is similar to the Florida law critics dubbed “Don’t Say Gay.”

“Under attack” means “not getting enough attention” to these nasty fetishists.

They’re shoving their filthy, deviant lifestyles in our faces and then whining because we’re not interested and we want to protect children from that vile slime.

The Drama Queens need to lighten up. Any proof of them being “attacked”?

Apparently, they aren’t being attacked hard enough. They’re doing most of the violence, including murder.

We still have lots of folks even on this conservative forum who believe with all their hearts that what 2 consenting adults do in the privacy of their own homes affects no one else and is no one else’s business. Lots of folks even here believe pornography is a 1st amendment right. Slippery slope warnings for the past 7 decades were all true but no none learns from them anyway.

This article was written to provide cover and promote more LGBTQ+++ violence against anyone who would interfere with their perverted agenda.

Their movement is incompatible with Judeo-Christian foundations.

You can have one or the other, not both. It’s a choice between God vs. Satan.

Particularly disturbing:

“The declaration is a call to action for “people in power at every level” of government and the business community, she said, urging them to fight for LGBTQ+ rights with the same fervor as they’ve fought for abortion rights since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last summer.”

Straight Americans are under attack by homos, queers and fags. Word of GOD declares in state of emergency warning!!!


We are living in a Genesis 19:9 world...
 

"Get out of our way,” they replied.
“This fellow came here as a foreigner, and now he wants to play the judge!
We’ll treat you worse than them.”
They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.

Years ago I exposed the
same sex attraction disorder for what it is and gave it an acronym.

A disorder.

SSAD

Quite fitting.

That’s why they changed homosexual to “gay.”

Lying to themselves.

They stole a perfectly good word and made it dirty.
