False @jerseycornelia
People are imprisoned & killed for being gay.
I don't have the same rights you have. I have been fired from jobs, denied housing, thrown out of public accommodations, expelled from HS, put in a mental hospital for #conversiontherapy for being a #lesbian.

Also @jerseycornelia, attitudes like yours contribute to circumstances like this, which I reported on this week:

Obviously, @jerseycornelia, you are one of these people. But if you read this news story of mine, you will see how wrong that misperception you are fomenting is.

Globally, #LGBTQ people are imprisoned and put to death for being gay, @jerseycornelia.
I wrote about that here. I hope this all will educate you so you can stop spreading your homophobic rhetoric.
