The Hate

Why do LGBT(+) people like myself get targeted?

The worst way we have gotten targeted was Pulse Nightclub with 50 dead by a terrorist  and the StoneWall Riot 205 dead by police

So many people have died because of hate crimes and it’s horrible 

7,175 people in 2017 reported of a hate crime because of who they are 

This is not the way to go if you hate someone because of who they like or identify as 

 

LGBT(+) people in the US are always getting hate and getting hurt 

I say stand up and use your voice say anything to get your point across 

You need to be strong because if you’re not strong they will see you as weak 

If you are you still will have a voice no matter what and you should put that to good use
