I just have to say that the horrific shooting in #ColoradoSprings at #ClubQ is not an #lgbtq issue, it's an issue for ALL of us. Every. Single, One. Of. Us.
Until we are ALL safe, none of us are safe.
Until we are all valued, none of us are valued.
Love will ALWAYS win, but we can't just let things happen and hope someone else will speak up. We must ALL speak up, with one voice.
@MistyKitty3 Sadly, totally true. It's heart-breaking. I don't mean that as a 'term', I mean it quite literally.
@Florence I literally only go to the grocery store every 2 weeks or so. It's too risky.
@MistyKitty3 This HAS to stop. The only way to stop hate is to educate, but as was said on msnbc, they're banning teaching about race, about 'minorities' (I dislike that term) and so teachers CANNOT resolve or educate. It's sickening. Despicable.
@Florence It's gotten way, way, way out of hand. DeSantis & his followers are nuts. I mean, pick a stupid fight with Disney, over what?
@MistyKitty3 Yep. It's all to the same aim though. Hate everyone who's not you.
@Florence 100% with you. Imagine if one of OUR loved ones were to go this way. What do they have, maybe a few days max for their deaths to reach national concern before the next incident pushes them out the cycle? A while ago I remember someone talking about shithole countries...
@Florence
Sadly, it does not look like love is winning. We must understand nothing is set in stone. If we do not act, hate will govern our lives and the flame of love extinguished.
@KMattsson We should certainly act. But not let the hateful views of others change so WE are. So, yes, definitely act, always, but do that as ourselves, not as reflections of those who hate. ❤️
@Florence True. Can't even go to the grocery store, or a movie theater, or send your kids to school. Nowhere is safe.
