I see your point, but I have gay friends here in Montreal that were beat up by regular white dudes just because they were kissing in the street.
And what about the shootings that happened in the States in gay clubs? Those were white Christians.
If people are brought up as bigots, they're gonna be just that. Regardless of their origin or religion. Though I admit, in some places it's pretty systemic.
Actually the shooting at gay night clubs in the states are usually not white Christians. The most famous to me was the Pulse night club shooting by Omar Mateen, an Islamic extremist.
I think it's safe to say that anyone attacking the LGBTQ community is a religious extremist of some variety though.
Yeah, religion of any kind seem to breed bigotry.
citation ?
(legitimately, i've been looking for a useful resource for stats like this)
Well, if there are plenty of bigots, why import more?
Both sides. Gotcha.
That's not at all what I'm saying. And I don't see how you can even interpret my reply like that.
