It’s a way to signal her queerness. This sort of patronizing attitude is something many lesbians or lesbian feminists face from “well-intentioned” hetero feminists. In the 70's, (white) hetero feminists referred to the lesbian feminists at conferences as the lavender menace. God bless Mme. Friednan.

Straight, white lady privilege talk.

And no act of hate or terror will ever change who we are or the values that make us Americans.

Allow me to give you all a different insight and viewpoint than most Americans - the main audience around here - can have, and relevant to this tragedy...

You say gun nerd. I say ammosexual.

The homophobia I experience every day, the occasional acts of thankfully-mild violence, come from fellow Americans by and large. We don’t need this to be a Red Dawn moment. I don’t know whether this dude’s newly-found Islam reinforced his homophobia—I do know all mass murderers are egocentrics who have a pathological…

It’s not much, but I emailed all my state and federal representatives and asked them, instead of just offering their “thoughts and prayers” on TV and twitter, if they would consider making gun control a possibility/reality.

For more accuracy they can also have her lie to Danny Pink on the way to the TARDIS .

most reasonable post here...this is so completely meaningless. In fact I believe it helps Hillary by giving her a chance to be above the noise.

I feel like everyone’s trippin/forgot 08. I mean the same thing happened and when everyone was like Hillary what you doing girl? She was like Barack could get assassinated MLK style. And everyone was like ??????. So what I am saying is its going to be fine.

And he criticized the superdelegate system as a whole, saying it allowed Clinton to get crucial support before anyone else was even in the race: “It’s like an anointment.”
