(5,739 posts)from people who I really ought to have been able to trust. The specifics, I am frankly not comfortably discussing with someone I do not know.
I'm proud to say that in some instances, I got the chance to give a little violence back to those horrific people.
I do take it personally when you imply I don't know what it is like to feel discriminated against. I can't marry the man I love in the state I live in. I can be fired for being nothing but myself. This isn't a competition though, though based on what you say you'd probably win that one. All I can say is it really rubs me the wrong way when we talk about a group, any group, as nothing but a blob instead of the individuals they deserve to be considered as.
That inclination is the root of all discrimination in society and it disgusts me whenever I see it.
