Maybe they have emotional issues and depression BECAUSE EVERYONE DISCRIMINATES AGAINST THEM AND CHRISTIANS CONSTANTLY TELL THEM THEY'RE EVIL AND SHOULD JUST DIE.

Perhaps if we accept them, some of those emotional issues might go away, hm?

Yeah, they're literally being decapitated in the Middle East but Christians are their problem.

I agree universal acceptance would help their depression, but I'm pretty sure there are other stressors that cause depression among LGBT especially transgenders like wishing they were born in the right body even after having transitioned and an inability to have children with their partner.

Random (unexpected) fact:

Transsexualism is legal in Iran and is even promoted as the "solution" for homosexuals.

Iran was once rather progressive for the Middle East, if I'm not mistaken.

Look! A squirrel!

This topic is about America and its military and the discrimination they are facing here, and most of that is coming from Christians. Changing the subject doesn't erase that fact.

Isn't that discrimination coming from the military, which is made up of a wide variety of faiths?

Are you purposely trying to ignore my point because you can't respond to it?

Christians constantly tell them to die? Honestly, do you know any Christians? Besides the ones you are going to make up for your comeback or that you read about while wanking to the splc?

Christ are you a fucking shrill old lady.

Trump isn't Christian and the Joint Chiefs have ignored his Tweet.

The White House hours ago confirmed that Chief of Staff Reince Priebus is a paranoid schizophrenic and a paranoiac. A paranoid schizophrenic WH Chief of Staff and depressed transgenders in the military are my top two concerns now.

http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/344215-scaramucci-priebus-is-a-paranoid-schizophrenic-will-be-asked-to

Quote:
White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci unloaded on chief of staff Reince Priebus, accusing him of leaking details of a private dinner with President Trump and claiming he will be asked to resign.

“Reince is a f------ paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac,” Scaramucci told New Yorker writer Ryan Lizza in a Wednesday phone call.

“They’ll all be fired by me,” he said of the White House communications staff. “I fired one guy the other day. I have three to four people I’ll fire tomorrow. I’ll get to the person who leaked that to you. Reince Priebus — if you want to leak something — he’ll be asked to resign very shortly.”

Scaramucci was angry that Lizza found out he planned to dine with Trump, Fox News host Sean Hannity and former Fox News executive Bill Shine at the White House. He believed that Priebus, whom he has feuded with for months, was the one who told Lizza about it.

Mimicking Priebus, Scaramucci tells Lizza: “ ‘Oh, Bill Shine is coming in. Let me leak the f------ thing and see if I can cock-block these people the way I cock-blocked Scaramucci for six months.’ ”

...

Scaramucci directed his profane tirade at other members of the White House staff, whom he said were only in their posts for media attention and notoriety.

“I’m not Steve Bannon, I’m not trying to suck my own cock,” he said of the chief strategist who rarely appears on television. “I’m not trying to build my own brand off the f------ strength of the President. I’m here to serve the country.”

I cannot deny that there are Christians who are intolerant of trans people (I like to think they are all deep in the sticks), however it has little to do with them being banned from military service.

You are absolutely correct. And I never said anything to the contrary, which is why your point was completely off topic. You were creating a straw man for me to debate that I had never created.

I'm no fan of Trump, but this level of petty physical insult reminds me of the most cowardly bullies of grade school.


Physical insult? Verbal at best. It was not even an insult.


It's essentially a statement of fact.

It is ridiculous how dumb some Americans are. It doesn't matter what you say anymore, if it's negative you're branded a Trump supporter. "She is a little fat" - "Oh fuck off, TRUMP SUPPORTER!". It is absurd. Do Liberals not have opinions, or do they not tell the truth? It seems if you tell the truth or express an opinion you're instantly a fucking chauvinist, racist, homophobic pig [supporter].

The Google memo controversy is an example of a conservative trying to tell the truth backed by science/research, and the left ignoring what he really said and demonizing him
