I’ve seen multiple videos and read multiple quotes of Ted Cruz discussing gay issues, as well as Mike Huckabee, and it goes exactly as you’d expect. They don’t answer the question. They say you’re cutting them off when you try to ask the same question again because they’re not answering it, because the reality is that they might be homophobic people. To me, it seems like they’re homophobic people… It can seem comical to people, and people can say, ‘Well, Ted Cruz and Mike Huckabee, they’re obviously not going to be president. But no, these people have influence, and there are specific areas and communities where they’re popular.
I think of the most vulnerable. I think of kids that are gay growing up in that environment and the level of toxicity and shame, and it’s so destructive. It causes a lot of pain. And the ripple effects of intolerance are catastrophic for everybody. Those are the points where it’s like, ‘This is not funny. Stop devaluing our love.’”

truth. i feel so sorry for the countless LGBT kids who were dragged to churches the last few sundays to hear the bigots at the pulpit screeching hatred about us and championing Kim David, Bigot Queen.
all the young LGBT kids browning up in middle america with families that cheer on Huckabee and Ted Cruz, it’s a terrifyingly sad reality.

So is so right and we to confront our enemies and challenge them and educate people What Cruz, huckabee, Carson, walker, rubio and all of the current GOP brand. They are NOT for equality.
