Oh look, now it’s not safe for my family to visit Italy.

I’ve always planned travel based on where I can legally be gay. Friends might love Jamaica’s beaches but I worry I’ll be arrested or killed. As a parent i worry my family won’t be safe based on USA border guard/president behaviour.

Now the EU is falling to hatred again. This is a dark dark age. And it’s coming to Canada, make no mistake. Pay attention to politicians. Ask questions about LGBT families please.

@mekkaokereke It’s not women’s fear that’s being exploited. Women who fear making a scene have that fear for very rational reasons. They’ve seen what society does to women who speak up for themselves. What a bad actor in that situation is exploiting is society’s bias against women who defend themselves against exploitation by men, not a characteristic of women.

@AlliFlowers same thing here. Yesterday was 100 the next three or four days should be above 100 with extremely high Midwest humidity.

For those who believe todays music, video games & movies are causing mass shootings:

You are WRONG.

If this was the case it would happen all over the world. Here in Europe we listen to the same music, play the same games & enjoy the same movies but we do not have daily mass shootings because we don’t have the GUNS.

GUNS are WRONG
