Does Trump's victory in the Presidental election worry you as an LGBT individua?
-
BLM came about as a result of police brutality and unlawful/unjustified killings, that were particularly inflicted upon the black community.
It has no basis with Obama or Clinton and you know that! Stop peddling lies.
Actually, you are the one peddling lies. The entire BLM movement is predicated on false narratives. 1) Trayvon Martin was found to be the aggressor against George Zimmerman and that is what caused his death. 2) Mike Brown and the whole "hands up, don't shoot" was a LIE! Proven by not only eyewitnesses but by the forensics.

Yes the left wing anger has no meaning.
Even though it looks like Hillary is going to win the popular vote by about 500k votes and therefore Trump has no mandate from the people.
Even though the FBI have gone to a FISA court to investigate Trump links with Russia and the findings will be sealed.
Even though the FBI interfered with the election.
Even though the KKK are holding a Trump victory march next month in NC and there have been reports of many terrorist attacks as a result of the election.
And that's only what's known this week, be prepared for much more.
I can't imagine what people would have to protest about, but maybe they should have the armed revolution the Trumpsters were planning ;D
Well, you obviously don't understand that we are a democratic republic, and how our electoral system works. Paying any attention to popular vote is ridiculous, because it isn't a true barometer. Many Trump voters in "blue states" don't bother voting just as many HRC voters in "red states" don't vote. Couple that with those voters that would vote with the majority in their state that don't vote and you have exactly no idea what an actual popular vote would be.
The other things that never ceases to amaze me about those who lean to the left and how they preach tolerance– except apparently that tolerance is only afforded to people if they think as you do, speak as you do, and do what you tell them to do. How can you expect tolerance if you call people "Trumpsters." just because they vote differently than you. It is sickening.
And break out of your bubble and do a little research before continuing the lies of the terrorism being inflicted by Trump supporters:

Trump trumps Clinton

Trump has way more to worry about then the gays
-
More than Trump himself, I'm more afraid of what (some of) his supporters are capable of doing and ARE doing right now.
I have read about over 50 such incidents that occurred all over the country which took place on the first day of Trump presidency.
A FEW examples:- A black man's car was atrociously vandalized with the words "NIG*ER" and "Trump" right next to each other.
- A gay man has been brutally attacked by Trump supporters right after the election results were announced. They smashed a bottle over his head and was left bleeding profusely while they yelled, "We got a new president you fucking fagg*ts."
- A woman of color was threatened by white Trump supporters in a gas station who asked her to leave the country, and then proceeded to pull out a gun on her and said, "If there weren't any witnesses, I'd kill you right now."
The internet is blowing up with MANY more such incidents.
And perhaps people should do a little research before sharing such bullshit without a little verification:
AT LEAST 2 of your 3 examples have been proven to be FALSE, but don't let a little thing like the truth get in the way of your paranoia and hate!
https://reason.com/blog/2016/11/11/election-night-hijab-attack-falseFirst off, calm down. I'm not trying to get anyone angry or upset.
Secondly, I only posted what I believed to be true. So instead of getting angry at me for stating what I thought was true and bashing me for it, just say that I'm wrong. There's really no need for you to get all defensive. I would've just checked up on the issues and would've apologized about it.
When I see stuff like that from a lot of people, when I see that kind of hate, my first thought wasn't, "These people might be lying" because I knew what kind of people some Trump supporters are.
That's all there is.
So next time, when you wanna point out someone's mistake, be kind to them, instead of going off about it.Like it or not, we do have a blatantly homophobic Vice President of the US and probably a homophobic President as well. Be kind to one another, we really do need to stick together in times like these.
Much love,

Holy crap… Some of you guys are seriously brainwashed by the media.
#1 I don't support Trump, I didn't vote for him, and I don't think he should be president.
#2 Trump can't just snap his fingers and do much, okay? He needs approval of the senate and the house, to pass a bill, which he would propose. Those people are professional politicians and they aren't going to vote for anything that is going to hurt their chances at re-election. They're not just going to rubber stamp a bill that forces sexual reassignment surgery upon LGTBQ people because Trump said so, okay?
#3 Trump played the media, he lied, said insane things, and behaved outrageously in order to be continuously in the news. I remember going to MSNBC one time and thinking "wow they've turned the news into a giant Trump tabloid… It's all Trump..." The only people Trump bullied around were the media and it worked, they couldn't stop running stories about him, and they completely muted Hillary Clinton out of the news while they did it. The media blasted "Trump says election rigged" for a month and people got the idea that it was him conceding the election or he knew he wasn't going to win, no it was him winning the election. The message itself was an attempt to suppress the vote of Hillary supporters and it ran every day on the news.
#4 Trump isn't stupid, I know maybe people believe otherwise, and the media tried very hard to get you to believe he's stupid, but he isn't. He's not just going to do random things to piss people off. I highly doubt he even wants the nuclear codes.
#5 He won, give the guy a chance… The people who should be pissed off the most, are actually Republicans, not Hillary supporters. You know why? Because he lied to all of them, not to the Hillary supporters. Repeal Obamacare, drain the swamp, build a wall… Come on now... People believed this crap? These are rallying cries, not policies. Look what he's doing, he's building a team of Washington insiders, which would have been pretty much the same people if any other of the Republican candidates won and he already flip flopped on some of the key issues.
#6 The only thing Donald Trump wants to be more than popular and powerful, is liked. He wants people to like him, hes a massive narcissist, you should all know that. His plan was to simultaneously build a base of rabid supporters while making people believe "there's just no way he will win" and people didn't take the election seriously. (Sound familiar to anybody? Like Brexit? Same political play.) He wants nothing more than to be remembered for "Making America Great Again" like another Reagan. So he's going to tap the best people (he already is) to try to come up policy making that will or could do that.
#7 The Republican party is not against gay people. They completely moved off of the marriage equality issue prior to last election cycle. There are GLB Republicans and much of the recent political turmoil has revolved around transgender people and I feel bad for them. Honestly I don't think politicians know how to respond to that issue.
#8 About the only thing Donald Trump is going to personally do is go play golf. Stop taking the bait on his crazy ideas. Top politicians on the democratic side weren't fooled by his antics and you shouldn't be either. What was Obama's message? Focus, stop paying attention to his supporters and go vote, people couldn't and didn't, that's why Hillary lost. Trump and the rest of Republican party should seriously be concerned about getting their popularity up before the next election cycle, because that trick will not work twice.
Edit: How does Trump quell the hate he stirred up in America? I have no idea and it might be his downfall.

Perhaps you should actually read the Republican Party Platform from their own web site before you make such ill-informed statements. Check out section 6 titled "Great American Families, Education, Healthcare, and Criminal Justice" and you'll find they explicitly want to redefine legal marriage to "one man one woman" excluding ALL same sex marriages.
Before you try to tell us these bigots are not bad guys, take a few minutes and read their own words.

It's your constitution right now, they're not going to touch it. It doesn't matter what their platform says. 60% of their supporters are against it and that's why it says it. Even if they replaced Scalia with an anti marriage equality supreme court justice, that doesn't matter, since he dissented. Be concerned if one the majority judges dies and get replaced with an anti equality judge.
Unless you think Trump is going to start assassinating them or something insane …

not really worried about Trump. The VP is concerning, though.

Obama appointed 2 justices in his first term…do you think Ginsburg will live forever?

All my gay friends are very concerned and afraid of this new administration. I know several couples who are married and worry, once the new SCOTUS is appointed, a ruling could come down which would affect their marriage. The country just took 2 steps backwards in equality.

Over 100 FBI agents investigated the Michael Brown case and found that it was a 100% justifiable shooting. From memory, the final report has 22,000 pages of evidence.

I am more worried about Muslim extremists, I mean they would rather kill you than look at you, but keep worrying about that sky falling.

My husband has been in business with Trump for 20 years, and used to be a big donor for HRC and the DNC. I can tell you with 100% certainty– gay people have NOTHING to worry about regarding Donald J. Trump.

Oh, I'm sure he'll let Mike Pence do the anti-LGBT stuff while he stands back and watches. There are none so easy to fool as those who want to believe I guess.

The Democrats figured this out decades ago, and with the MSM have cultivated a population that has lost critical thinking skills.
-
Trump himself doesn't seem overly anti-LGBT, but he sure surrounds himself with homophobes. I have very little confidence in the coming administration…
-
Trump and his 'friends' don't scare me but the people who voted for him do.
The attitude now is, If I don't like if F%^k off.
That scares me.

Some of you people need to stop believing the ultra liberal lies!!!!!!
MARRIAGE EQUALITY IS PART OF US CONSTITUTIONAL LAW. IT WOULD TAKE A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO CHANGE THAT.
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO PASS AND THE PROCESS TAKES YEARS.
