As an openly gay man, Ebony I really appreciate your stance in this article. To me all of this proves, hate only spreads. Some of these people look like demons. It is hard to get your head around all of the things reporting in the news. I didn’t see the story about the middle school child Uncle Luke but it is disturbing. I wish someone would do that to one of my children. They would be welcome at my house where I would meet them with my best friends these days Smith and Wesson. I hope their parents come along. By all means, come to my house with that shit if you want to. I’m all for having guns, I just don’t think anyone needs an assault rifle. Some guns civilians simply do not need point blank. It doesn’t take that kind of weapon to defend yourself. Hate is spreading and it’s destructive. I agree Mimi, it’s nice to have a place to go and talk socially online without all the strife. This is a comfortable place and I’m not interested in conversing with MAGA folks in any way or capacity. It’s a waste of good conversation and breath. They don’t love anything or anyone, not life, not peace, not this country, and certainly not our planet.
