Oh hello thread enjoy a recent insightful FB post from my friend:

quote:

Can we stop saying that Mike Pence wants to torture gay people? I keep hearing it and it's a real stretch on the truth.
http://www.snopes.com/mike-pence-supported-gay-conversion-%85/
He had a campaign statement when he ran for congress that said federal money should be directed to "those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior". That's a far cry from wanting to send all gays to conversion therapy. Heck, if he believes homosexuality to be a disorder, then this is actually a *compassionate* point of view. In any case, the RNC has even explicitly stated that it is not part of the platform.
Actual repugnant positions to object to:
* He's against equal legal marriage rights for gay couples
* He's against civil unions for gay couples
* He was against repealing don't ask don't tell
* Many others, but double friggin' check
It's dangerous times to be spreading misleading information from your own side and we cannot afford it. This is how you lose trust.

it is not

There was armed resistance against the Nazis and Russians . I would know my family was murdered by them and my aunts and uncles were in the Lithuanian resistance. The holocaust 100% happened in Lithuania ,but saying that it was because of the general populace is 100% bullshit.
