For over 40 years of my life I had tried to remain invisible, regarding my true identity as Gay man. I was told by my government, my religion, the arts and sciences, the neighborhood, that Gay was bad, was a sickness, was unAmerican and of course against God’s will. So I tried MY best to fit in, to acquiesce to find approval to be like everyone else; until I realized two things, a lot of everyone else was completely fucked up and as Lady Gaga once said, “I Was Born This Way!” The closet door was always open, but I had no idea how easy it was to walk out of it, nor did I really think I could, I should or I ever would. I came out of hiding and became visible, NEVER EVER to permit anyone, did I say ANYONE from NOT seeing me. You may be a homophobe, but I am here, you may be a bigot, but I am here, you may be a self loathing pretentious prick, but I am here. You may be so afraid of your own secrets, but I am here…and you may not like me, but then who gives a fuck, cause I AM HERE!
So, now it seems the Party of Death and its empty Emperor have decide that MY rights, my citizenship, MY freedoms, My equality are no longer of the same priority as the guy who is on his third wife, had a child out of wedlock, continues to lie and cheat and most likely a pawn, and a puppet of Putin, you know the Reality Star sitting in the Oval Office. It seems that the Party of Death, gleefully supported by the Pay to Pray Preachers calling themselves Evangelicals, motivated by the Anarchists who are on the Russian payroll or worse under the Russian thumb with enough blackmail information to have them rot in jail, have decided that along with picket fences, motherhood and baseball, anti LGBTQ discrimination is now the new norm. For Trump and his band of baron robbers, the LGBTQ community is the newest demographic to just be denied their civil and equal rights.
So, let me say this, in MY blog, if in fact you voted for anyone Republican, you voted for Trump, and you are not begging for forgiveness for your folly, then stop reading anything I write, and unfriend me NOW. Your vote, your mistake is costing ME my freedom. I am no better than you but damn it, I am certainly no less then you. Trump is a joke, and the laugh was on you; and now sadly, I as a Gay man become the punchline. I am here, whether Trump of the Party of Death or their constituents wish otherwise, too fucking bad! You had the right to vote for whomever you wanted to, now you have the opportunity to acknowledge your mistake!
