Ordered by likelihood would be 6, 2, 1, 5, 4, 3 - 6.) being unfortunately a given (the question being where and when they'll attack) and and 3.) not very likely

- swores 4y agoSuch an offensively bad take. As a bi person and general LGBTQ+ ally, and left winger, I assure you we hope for violence against us to disappear entirely. Thankfully most right wingers also agree, but of the people who do lick their lips at the prospect of violence against gay people they're pretty much entirely right wing. But regardless of political orientation, the only people who don't find such events to be horrible and unnecessary are assholes first and foremost.

- swores 4y agoSaying that LGBTQ / left wing people are "groomers" is just insanely bigoted and no more grounded in reality than if I baselessly said "all right wingers are rapists". Complete nonsense, please educate yourself.

- brutusborn 4y agoWhy do you think 6 is a given? Has political tension in the US just got to breaking point?
- kasey_junk 4y agoThe mass attacks on gay groups we’ve seen to date resemble hate crimes more than politically motivated terror attacks, so “political tension” isn’t really the right term. The issue is that the right wing has steered very hard into anti-gay rhetoric in the last couple of cycles which convinces the sort of deranged people who commit mass hate attacks that they are doing something for a cause. Combine that with the fetishization and availability of military style weapons and it’s pretty easy for a lone miscreant to kill a lot of people fast.
- SyzygistSix 4y agoARs are quite common which is why I predict someone with a GAYR-15 will stop one of these attacks in its tracks and people will stop associating them with right wingers exclusively.
- kasey_junk 4y agoIt would be pretty out of vibe for someone to open carry an ar at a pride parade. In lots of jurisdictions it would incite violent police response.
- SyzygistSix 4y agoIt has definitely happened though. Not everyone who is socially anti-authoritarian is anti-self defense.
