Boebert Has Been Pushing Anti-LGBTQ Rhetoric For Months But Offered Prayers

[Guno צְבִי]

At least five people were killed and 25 others injured after a shooter opened fire in a gay club in Colorado Springs on Saturday night.

The tragedy took place the night before Transgender Day of Remembrance — a day honoring the many trans people murdered in violent acts of hatred — which the club had planned to commemorate at its drag brunch event.


On Sunday, Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert — known for her anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, pro-gun activism, comments against Muslims, and support for far-right conspiracy theories — commented on the deadly shooting in her neighboring district.

"The news out of Colorado Springs is absolutely awful," Boebert tweeted. "This morning the victims & their families are in my prayers. This lawless violence needs to end and end quickly."


Boebert's tweet did not mention that the shooting had taken place at a gay club — a notable omission, considering her proclivity for tweeting about the LGBTQ community, typically with unabashed disdain. Much of her ire has been directed at trans people and drag queens, who she has accused of "grooming" children.

Boebert's "grooming" comments stem from a growing wave of anti-LGBTQ rhetoric that has coalesced into a right-wing moral panic. Conservatives have repeatedly smeared LGBTQ people and their allies as pedophiles and child predators — baseless claims that have roots in age-old anti-gay tropes and conspiracy theories like QAnon.

Yeah, I just read a piece on that. The LBGBTQ community is basically saying, "f-u" to her. They feel her anti gay hate speech is one of the things that radicalize shitheads to hurt people.

"Twitter users quickly noted that Ms Boebert was deeply entrenched in the resurgence of right-wing hate against the LGBT community. The freshman congresswoman, who holds a thin lead in a reelection bid headed for a recount, has more than once tweeted approvingly about the right-wing hate account LibsOfTikTok, which shines a spotlight on private citizens and businesses that are seen as members of or allied with the gay community; teachers and drag performers who interact with children are among the owner’s favourite targets. Those targeted by the account are subjected to relentless abuse from thousands of followers; in one recent high-profile case, the Boston Children’s Hospital received bomb threats after it was maligned by the account."

Guano's response here is in essence, If you are not 100% with us, you're against us. That is, anyone who objects to any part of the LGBTPDQRSTUV agenda and politics is against every part of that agenda and those politics. That's how the radical Left rolls every time...

"We are thugs, and very very proud of it!"

Like most civilized people, I'm sickened by these attacks and also by that right-wing fascist idiot Whorin' Lauren Boobert constantly running her nasty, stinking, shithole mouth which serves only to stir up looneys to do this kind of shit.

Nobody deserves to be killed or have any kind of violence perpetrated against them just because of who they are.

That having been said....

Regarding all this alphabet shit..... from now on, afaic they are all just "gay".

Or the gay community.

From here on out, I refuse to recite half the friggin alphabet just to make these people happy.

I shouldn't have to.

If these people are so insecure that they have to have the first letter of whatever sub group of alternative lifestyle they adhere to recited ad infinitum just so they don't get offended and feel sad or not included, too fucking bad.

I am sorry for the loss of these innocent people's lives at the hands of some gun-wielding asshole, but I'm also sick of pandering to crybabies.

It's time for this entire generation of overgrown third graders, straight, gay, liberal and conservative, to grow up and start acting like adults.

Sorry if that offends anyone.

Not sorry if that offends anyone.

The LGBT movement is all about legalizing child molesting. They got a proven child molester as president and they want more. Decent people better start fighting this evil.

No, words have consequences , especially when your followers are bottom feeding scum who act on those words

I want to know what, if anything this lady has said, that can be construed to say, “ We should all just go shoot up gay nightclubs?” I haven’t read everything she’s written or said so she may have. Point me to it.

Well - she didn't actually say it but she's TALKING IN CODE again like all the righties do. Like when they say they oppose crime. That means lock up all the negroz.

Everybody knows how full of bullshit your posts are.

I think you even know it.

I doubt you believe a fraction of the trash you spew.

You just troll for your own childish entertainment.

Does it have to be that literal?

And I'm not accusing her of anything. But the rhetoric from the right borders on demonizing that community at times. I think it's unfortunate. People should just be free to live how they want to live, as long as it doesn't harm or affect others.

No, I think TDAK is a true believer, just really, really stupid. Because he's stupid he fears what he doesn't understand.

And others including children should be free from having it jambed down their throats. Be what you want but don't spend your day broadcasting it.

I dunno.

It's hard for me, an adult person of reasonable, average intelligence, to believe that anyone could be as blitheringly stupid as TDAK presents himself to be.

It's possible that he can be really stupid and still just be trolling.
