Quote:Once again name a law that specifically targeted homosexuals.Homosexuality was itself criminalized
Quote:So the best you have is "sodomy" laws, a misdemeanor in Kansas btw, since they are the ones supposedly targeting gay people, adultery is also illegal in Kansas.People went to jail for sodomy laws and had there lives ruined .Yes they did target gay people specifically with them .God you are a snowflake
Meanwhile black people had to drink from specific water fountains
Black people could only shop at certain stores.
Black people had to ride at the back of public transportation.
Black people couldn't buy property in certain neighborhoods.
Black people couldn't be in certain towns after sundown.
Black people were discriminated in being hired for jobs.
Black people could be arrested for not having a job.
But Gay people have SoDoMy LaWz, goodnight everybody.

Until 58 years ago, EVERY single state in the US had one. And today, those laws still stand in 68 countries. In eleven, it’s still punishable by death.He just wants to play victim olympics.
And you want to talk about violence, well, even as these laws are rendered unconstitutional, hate crimes against them are still a thing. In fact, of all the hate crimes that happen, as of 2018, 1 in 5 are motivated by sexual orientation.
Yes, black people are still targeted more, but, guess what, this isn’t supposed to be a dick-waving contest of who gets it worse.

Were you expecting something similar to Jim Crow Laws that affected black people?
Your fault is in your thinking process, that there must be active laws specifically targeting gay people, in order for them to be, what, legally discriminated against?
The discrimination exists, and that is most important. Inequality, no matter who is affected, is what matters and needs major attention toward change.
Legislation affecting gay rights across America
Gay people aren't fully protected in America
Laws that threaten LGBTQ equality
"Change was inevitable"
