The gay supporters of Donald Trump who argued that a Trump presidency would be better than a Clinton presidency for the lives of LGBT Americans weren't talking about civil rights like marriage equality. They were referring to Trump's firm position on Islamism.

In the wake of the Orlando massacre, it's understandable that some LGBT Americans (Twinks for Trump, Milo's gang, and the Log Cabin Republicans) decided that the threat radical Islam presented to the global LGBT community was of more importance then us being included on the census.

I'm not saying I endorse that belief, but it's not as irrational as Salon and Hufpo would have you believe.

Clinton was not gonna be light on terrorism. Just because she wasn't an out right islamophobe doesn't mean she was gonna be light on terror. 

So their paranoia was in no way rational.

We actually agree on this one as far as the why. Islamic beliefs do not agree with homosexuality, and see it as a sin with all other sins, Christianity can be much the same, but their sense of radical practices are different because of the localized cultural divide. I think both are harmful to the rights of LGBT people, and should be taken out of the equation when speaking on the subject in a governmental/rights based topic.

 

The sad part is, even these points don't make much sense to agree with Trump on, as being left alone, included, but not fought for, would be better than making us invisible altogether. Anyone who really thought that this would be any different was lacking in the common sense, that when you have private radicalists (not even talking about Trump on this one, but rather his cabinet) at the helm, standing just behind the man that is the starting point for many key voices on rights battles, you were always going to have people who like to keep things quiet, but who's passive-aggressive acts are on par outright injustice.

It's about the public discussion of Islamism. Hillary was unwilling to say that the Pulse night club shooting was the result of radical Islam, but Trump was. In the wake of a self-professed Islamic extremist targeting the gay community in the largest mass shooting in American history, their "paranoia" certainly wasn't irrational.

She had a perfectly good plan to combat ISIS tho. It actually dealt with the damn problem. 

"She supports the U.S. efforts to contain ISIS, saying the U.S. should continue ramping up the military campaign against ISIS from the air over Iraq and Syria, resolve political conflicts that fuel ISIS's recruitment efforts, dismantle the networks it uses to move money, fighters and arms around the world, and stem the flow of jihadists between the U.S. and Europe and places like Iraq and Afghanistan."

She also said of the pulse night club shooter 

"The Orlando terrorist may be dead, but the virus that poisoned his mind remains very much alive. We must attack it with clear eyes, steady hands and unwavering determination in pride in our country and our values,"

The virus that poisoned his mind was clearly a reference to radical Islam. Just because she didn't say the words specially didn't mean she didn't have a comprehensive plan to deal with it and it doesn't even mean she didn't address radical Islam. Because she did. She just did it in a way that wouldn't stir up resentment against muslims. Anyone that thought Trump was the only one that'd fight radical Islam was severely mis-informed.

This is just so evil, I can't :madge: I wonder who put Trump up to this, he's not smart enough to have thought of it on his own.

You can indite Islamism, by using the word Islamism, without inciting Islamophobia. Hillary erred too far on the side of political correctness, while Trump erred too far on the side of bigotry.

I don't agree with even having the Census Bureau being in everyone's personal business and making files of it at all and at any time on this planet.

The future's uncertain and the end is always near.
