Tom and Patsy Plant told The Post and Courier of Charleston they were eating at Virginia’s restaurant and saw a man come out of the kitchen with a gun in his hand who said, “There’s a new boss in town.”

The man looked like “an ordinary grandpa, but he had a crazy look,” the couple said. They were able to escape out a back door

I have a deep seated perhaps irrational faith in humanity as a collective.

But not when part of said collective has decided that roughly the entire rest of the world is trying to make them look like idiots.

Counterpoint: My 95-year-old grandmother and wife of WW2 European Theater vet is a hard Republican, and pressured her seven children and their spouses (and their adult children) to all vote Trump. And they all live in Florida or Missouri.

Didn't work on me or my mother because we're persona non grata in The Family anyway. She merely voted for Jill Stein.

The thing that really makes me sad about trans-hate is that even if transition wasn't something that can keep trans folks from killing themselves, why the gently caress should anyone care? It's the same thing as gay marriage. Jim becoming Jen or Jen becoming Jim and presenting as their preferred gender has absolutely 0 impact on anyone except Jim/Jen and their romantic partner. So why the gently caress is it anyone else's business? If it makes them happier than they are right now, it's something we all should either support or just not give a poo poo about.

It's why all this anti-LGBT poo poo makes me nauseated. They're not forcing you to get gay married or transition or anything else. They just want to live their life in peace and bigots aren't letting them and working to convince other people they're scary and should be punished.

It's really depressing/upsetting. I hope all the trans goons out there are staying safe and mentally healthy through this. I can't imagine how much it sucks.:smith:

But you see, I might become attracted to one and deceived into sex thus making me gay.
