Experts warn against canceling Pride campaigns after extremists threaten Target

ABC had brought Experts from the "Southern Poverty Law Center" to debate the boycott campaigns

Where they are warning about against canceling Pride campaigns.
This is interesting they also mentioned the boycott campaign.

In which they are accusing the right of being Bigots and emboldened due stereotypes against LGBTQ+ people yet they dont mention it completely in the article.

Experts warn against canceling Pride campaigns after extremists threaten Target

"It's a real concern," said Hayden. "Bigots feel emboldened largely because of mainstream politicians giving them a pat on the back," referring to some conservative political and media figures who have recently resurfaced harmful stereotypes against LGBTQ+ people.

One person speaks, no one listens to garbage.

Do they happen to mention it was trans extremist terrorists that threatened Target?

Since when is dubyuh the role model here?

We do not negotiate with "terriss"

For those who don't remember life before the patriot act, that's to say Americans will keep living our lives despite the threats of these nutbags, and if they take hostages and make demands we'll blow their heads off.


These people should be treated no different, and those experts should be considered defectors

Every Company Disney Owns

Only way to get corporations to listen is to make them lose millions of dollars. These boycotts accomplish that without destroying or burning anything down.

There is no freaking hate in America. PERIOD. It's all bullshicrap.

So it's just a coincidence that LGBT individuals are ten times more likely to be the victim of a hate crime than non-LGBT individuals?

There was a time when gay and trans people were ridiculed and suffered more violence and hate. That was a long time ago and society has moved on from that mindset for the most part.
Now we have swung full circle and the violence and hate comes from the gay and trans community under the guise of inclusion and love. It used to be said that we had to be careful hunting monsters lest we become one. The LGBT community have become such a monster and will target even their own if they stray from the driven narrative.

Im sure those who have a boycott on bud light have already forgot about gillette. Sad truth. 2nd, 3rd. This is by design. To disrupt the population into a "land of confusion."

Probably higher. How does that change the fact that LGBT individuals are more more likely to be the target of hate crimes?

a reply to: vNex92

They think it's just the "right" or "extreme right" LOL!!

AGAIN, here's some math:

LEGITIMATE Trans Pop. (US) ~ 1.6%

Current Pop. (US) ~ 334.2 million

What about those numbers leads one to think that Trans is "mainstream" enough to flood the market with "affirming products", images and slogans?? That we must revamp our entire educational systems to accommodate wholesale delusion???

I'll tell ya: its the MSM blowing EVERYTHING out of proportion.

Nut jobs, the whole lot.

Hate crime as in real violence, or bad words?

a reply to: Threadbare

Two famous 'hate' crimes against LGBTQ weren't. Mathew Sheppard most likely was murdered over a drug deal, not because he was gay. Larry King was miserably sexually harrassing the younger boy that shot and killed him in the Jr. High school my daughter attended. One teacher said the lesbian VP was ignoring the bullying the shooter was enduring. Larry King had been kicked out of his foster home for molesting other foster kids. It hung the jury when a teacher testified to this all in court.

So that's two 'hate crimes' against LGBTQ.

I have forever been against the 'hate' designation of certain crime. I argued strongly about it when it first became a thing. I've seen truth get distorted, just like I predicted it would.

We estimate the prevalence and characteristics of violent hate crime victimization of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people in the United States, and we compare them to non-LGBT hate crime victims and to LGBT victims of violent non-hate crime.

Look, the language is twisted by the disingenious daily. I've seen full on college professors claim that words are violence.

Defining 'hate crime' was and is, a slippery slope to meaninglessness.

Real violence by their lovers (and white people), the others are just negative emotional responses (and white people).

Nothing bias or agenda driven about Threadbare's source............ Nothing at all

Compared to non-LGBT victims, LGBT victims of hate crime were more likely to be younger, have a relationship with their assailant, and have an assailant who is white. Compared to LGBT victims of non-hate violence, more LGBT hate crime victims reported experiencing problems in their social lives, negative emotional responses, and physical symptoms of distress.

I don't know why these people even bother coming out of their Mather's basement if they can't handle the real world.

Screwed up the quote. The first 2 words are:

We estimate.


The most important words of that quote.

It is a way for them to use a number out of thin air to make things sound worse than they are. So when the hard numbers come out way lower, they legally covered their anus. It is all by the play book.
