LGBTQ people do not deserve to be murdered in cold blood or bullied. Also, LGBTQ people were not born that way, despite what Lady Gaga and other people claim. Finally, LGBTQ people can change, as these two people have.
They are Angel Colon and Luis Javier Ruiz, two survivors of the Pulse Nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida on June 12, 2016. They left the LGBTQ lifestyle, and so have many others.
If you agree with me, please add this to your favorites. Also, I expect this deviation to trigger backlash, so I would really appreciate it if you would back me up in the comments.

Sure it will, bub. Cause you’re spewing hateful lies about our community and about who we are, lies that are in direct contradiction to our best medical knowledge about our own species. Go, fuck the backlash, as you deserve to.
You’re right, we don’t deserve to be murdered, either in cold or hot blood, or bullied.
So stop lying about us. Stop saying it’s a choice. Stop calling it a lifestyle, that and orientation are not the same. Stop conflating LGBTQ+ people with the clubbing and party lifestyle (which actually is a lifestyle).
“Also, LGBTQ people were not born that way, despite what Lady Gaga and other people claim.”
When i got out of the Navy, i’d mostly been on all-male commands. I feared that staring at the chests of female coworkers would get me in trouble, so i made the choice to alter my fixation from breasts to derrieres.
It didn’t work. I couldn’t change from a boob-man to an ass-man, though i feared failure would cost me my job. And that’s not trying to change from hetero- to homosexual, a much greater jump.
Makes me think that orientation is not something that is just a CHOICE. Suggesting that they can change, or SHOULD change is a form of bullying, so get off your high horse, you smug bigot. It’s not your business if anyone’s gay, just like it’s no one’s business if i like boobs…as long as i don’t go around staring or treating the women as breast delivery systems….
Are you saying that violent crimes are good because it would apparently make some people renounce their sexual orientation? If you mean conversion therapy, it's known not to work. A few preachers who claim that it did for them doesn't change that. Whatever their reason and their choices, if they're not lying, it's their business anyway. Just like it's none of your business to judge other people on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. If it's not your thing, fine. Promoting that they should change and threatening them with supposed divine punishments you actually have no idea about is something else.
QuantumInnovator
Yet another use of quantum as some sort of magic word.
And we have another case of “They use the same term but operate with different definitions, so they still MEAN different things!”
HOMOSEXUALS
Normal Definition: “People who were born sexually attracted to their own sex instead of the opposite.”
The Definition Of Anyone Like QuantumInnovator: “People who have chosen to be sexually active with members of their own sex instead of the opposite.”
It’s possible that some people can change their sexual orientation. I don’t know.
Expecting all or most people to be able to on the basis of that, because some people succeeded on account of really wanting to and trying very hard, is ridiculous however. How many people can put their ankles behind their heads? Stand on their heads with their arms by their sides? Grind up and eat their own cars? And why should they want to anyway?
And these are the two blokes the quotee refers to, AFTER they supposedly became heterosexual. I try not to judge people by their appearance, but come on.
